Straight to Yes: Asking with Confidence and Getting What You Want
Just having the best idea, product, service, presentation or proposal is no longer enough in these dizzyingly competitive times. Getting a commitment to action from your investors, leaders, customers or colleagues is vital. This book helps you become a master of gaining commitment to action by learning how to Ask. Based on sound psychological principles, Straight To Yes! offers tonnes of winning ways to make requests that get you to yes. Ruthlessly practical in style and full of immediately accessible, straightforward techniques you can try as soon as youve read about them. You can dip in and out of the book in 25 seconds before important Asks to refer to the single page you need for the step-by-step technique, or you can spend more time reading fascinating insights behind the art of Asking. Business matters. If we stumble at a crucial moment, all our hard work (and other peoples hard work too) can be undone. The stakes are high. This book gives you not only the tools to get it right but the confidence to ask bigger, ask wider, ask more often and even ask for the impossible. Table of Contents Part I: The Inner Game of Asking is all about preparing to make requests; overcoming inhibitors to making confident, successful requests (such as fear of rejection); introducing the seven keys that increase your chances of getting what you ask for. Part II: Asking with Frames in Mind is all about external influences - how context and sequence influence peoples decisions, and how to frame your requests with this in mind. Part III: Asking with Tribes in Mind draws upon the best bits of social psychology to provide techniques that tap into values such as authority, status, consistency and trust. Part IV: Asking with the Brain in Mind draws upon neuroscientific evidence to show you how to tap into the inbuilt preferences in the brain and get a yes answer.

Jamie Vardy: From Nowhere, My Story
The official autobiography of Jamie Vardy.An ordinary lad from Sheffield, Jamie Vardy has become known as an against-the-odds footballing hero the world over. Yet a few years ago, things couldn't have been any more different. Rejected as a teenager by his boyhood club, Jamie thought his chance was gone. But from playing pub football and earning £30 a week at Stocksbridge Park Steels, while still working in a factory, his off-the-cuff performances saw him rise. Jamie had a wild and turbulent youth, something he doesn't shy away from. But football became his saving grace and, once he filled his boots with goals at FC Halifax Town and Fleetwood Town, he moved to Leicester City. With a growing sense of focus, Jamie put his head in the game. After the miracle of surviving relegation, Leicester set out on their fairy-tale season. The team of unlikely outsiders bonded together to achieve the unthinkable: Jamie set the record as the first player to score in 11 consecutive Premier League matches and Leicester beat odds of 5000-1 to become champions. Defying all expectations, this is the story of the boy from nowhere who reached the top in his own unflinching, honest words. 'Even now there are moments when I shake my head at the madness of it all, going from the factory floor and playing Sunday morning pub football with my mates, to scoring for my country against the World Cup winners in Berlin. It's the stuff of dreams. It hasn't always been an easy journey, some doubted that I was capable, and at times I was probably guilty of not helping myself, but nobody can question my passion for football or my commitment once I set foot on the pitch. There is so much that people don't know and I look forward to sharing all of that and more in what I hope will be an inspiring story.' Jamie Vardy
