    Praise for Results That Last"Quint Studer is a superb communicator with a deep belief in the power of relationships. His informal tone, sense of humor, and real-world stories bring his business principles to life. Results That Last has a vital, optimistic quality that will keep readers re-reading long after other leadership books have been relegated to a dark corner of the shelf."--Nido Qubein, author of How to Get Anything You Want; President, High Point University; Chairman, Great Harvest Bread Company; and founder, National Speakers Association Foundation"Results That Last is long overdue and fills a big gap in effective business management. There are legions of books that show us the way to achieve successful results in business, but very few that teach us how to institutionalize success. In reality, achieving success is the easy part. The real challenge is to achieve results that last. Quint Studer not only proves it is possible to hardwire a culture for lasting results, but lays out a simple, logical, and effective way to do so. Anyone who wants to make success a habit needs to read this book."--Bob MacDonald, former CEO, Allianz Life of North America and author of Beat the System: 11 Secrets to Building an Entrepreneurial Culture in a Bureaucratic World"I have always been fascinated by how the various parts of an organization work together to achieve strategic objectives. In Results That Last, Quint Studer explores the complex subject of performance improvement in a fresh, readable, and easy-to-grasp way. By standardizing certain business practices and leader behaviors, any company in any field can create an environment that allows it to achieve and sustain long-term results."--David F. Giannetto, coauthor of The Performance Power Grid: The Proven Method to Create and Sustain Superior Organizational Performance

    Do you want to be able to communicate properly? 
    Do you wonder why people move and act a certain way when you’re talking to them? 
    Human beings are social creatures. While some individuals are inclined towards introversion and prefer to limit interactions with others whenever possible, the general thrust of humanity leans towards sociability and connecting with each other in a common, shared space of mutual activity and existence. The foundation and the core of all forms of human social groups is communication. It is both a need and a want to communicate. 
    Miscommunication often leads to fights, misunderstandings, burnt bridges, ties being cut, and heartaches. Nothing good ever comes from miscommunications. What better way to prevent that, than by getting your exact feelings and thoughts across, helping both you and the people you communicate with, to better understand you and vice versa. 
    We’re going to go in-depth with the following: 
    ·      Personality Types 
    ·      The Psychology of Communication Behaviors 
    ·      Reading Gender Specific Body Language 
    ·      Body Language and the Emotions Behind It 
    ·      The Four Zones: Intimate, Personal, Social, and Public—When to keep your distance 
    ·      And so much more! 
    Inside this audiobook, you will learn how to read and identify the emotions behind body language, analyze people in a deeper perspective and more importantly, learn about personal space—when to open up and when to draw the line.

    Ultimate Guide To Niche Research: Discover the Impact of Choosing the Perfect Niche to Help Your Blog, Website or Business SucceedMany aspects of digital marketing can be compared with other money-making strategies like investing in stocks and shares.
