You are busy. Your personal and professional life keeps you hopping around the clock. Yet, you still have so much you want to learn about. You want to read new or classic books on management, leadership, or personal development. You put them on your list and promise yourself... but you just don't have the time. This website is your resource.
I am an active consultant in the field of organizational development. I am also an avid reader with a special talent for synthesizing large quantities of information into bite-size pieces. After reading a good book (one worth recommending to others) I compile my notes, produce a two-page summary, and post it here for you to download. Each one is just $1.00! A collection of the first 50 summaries is available for download or on CD.
It's very simple and here's how it works:
1) Browse the six categories below to find titles that interest you. You may also use the search function to find authors, titles, and key words.
2) If you would like to purchase a downloadable 2-page summary of one of the books, simply click to add it to your shopping cart. You may do this as many times as you like!
3) Proceed through checkout. This is powered by PayPal (though you do not need a PayPal account.) The system will ask you to register as a customer and enter other information standard with online purchases. Creative Option C does not have access to that information. PayPal keeps it completely secure.
4) Once you have completed check out, you will receive an email with a link back to an area of the site where you will find your items ready for download.
5) Enjoy! (If you have any troubles, please do not hesitate to let me know!)

Featured Offerings: There are dozens of book summaries to find at the tabs above, but here we feature a few favorites. Stephen R. Covey's The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People is here because I think it is the most important book of the 20th century (click here to view this sample book summary online). In addition, I am including my most recent summary and also The Cathy Collection. Be sure to check my blog to see if I have written about why a classic work may have become something I am thinking about again. Enjoy!
Additional Services: I recommend every book I have summarized. To read my reviews, check out my book blog or my Goodreads.com profile. Those who are interested in reading any book I feature here are welcome to link directly to Abebooks to purchase a copy of the book itself, and I hope you will. The discounted prices offered by this network of independent booksellers make this absolutely the best way there is to buy a book.
