“[Give Me Ten Seconds and I’ll Change Your Life] is the pre-eminent playbook for thriving and winning in the turbo-charged world of 24/7 companies.”
— Jonathon Spalter
Author Mitch Thrower used his experience as a business leader, lecturer and
e-commerce pioneer to create an important book that offers smart, timely
advice on how to succeed in today's workplace.
Today’s
executive is like a sprinter poised at the beginning of the race. He or
she sends an e-mail, takes a speakerphone conference call, signs a
contract to close a deal, practicing the balance of office yoga, all
the while nursing a morning latte gone cold. These simultaneous demands
placed on the executive are an inevitable part of managerial life that
can lead to either stress or success.
So
how does one effectively manage these competing demands in the modern workplace? Give Me Ten Seconds and I'll Change Your Life offers the answer with 100 experience-based parables
and lessons. The topics covered are essential for everyone, from working executives and managers, to home-based business owners, to job-seekers.

- How to persuade others to accept and implement your ideas.
- How to handle office romances.
- How to manage your personal "ATM" (Attention Time Machine).
- How to make multitasking more effective.
- How to handle office nuisances such as "spam people."
- How to get your resume noticed.
- How to manage the daily onslaught of e-mails.
