The United States has a long history as a leader of global innovation and of funding pioneering technologies that prove to be of benefit to the nation. The present moment is no exception. In fact, the next decade is likely to see increased involvement from the Federal government bringing to market the most innovative technologies under development. Author Kelly Carnes identifies the current moment as a golden age of opportunity for American innovators to partner with government, a moment in which there is bipartisan support for investing more aggressively in the development and deployment of leading-edge technology.

Next Generation Innovation collects insights from Carnes’ experience as an attorney for technology companies, her time spent working as Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Technology in the Office of Technology Policy, and her current entrepreneurial effort, TechVision21—a company offering exclusive assistance to technology visionaries interested in doing well by doing good for the nation. TechVision21 offers its clients the opportunity to collaborate with an expert team that is deeply knowledgeable about theories and models of innovation, the history of science and technology policy, and the details of U.S. government programs and budget-making processes.

Carnes’ wide-ranging experience makes her uniquely sensitive to the challenges facing entrepreneurs taking ideas and projects from inception to commercialization. With full awareness of those challenges, Carnes argues that technology organizations of all sizes and capabilities could be doing more to leverage U.S. government policies, programs, and funding opportunities to achieve their fullest potential. She writes, “In my company’s work helping innovators establish and sustain productive relationships with the Federal government, I try never to lose sight of two important details: the government wants to support projects that serve the national good—whether promoting security, health, a clean environment, ensuring a stable and safe food supply, promoting high quality job opportunities, or addressing climate change—and many innovators are driven by a desire to contribute to the national or global good. …From the long-term partnerships between government and industry that I have both participated in and witnessed, doing good is the truest satisfaction drawn by both partners.”

Next Generation Innovation sets as its task not only encouraging more entrepreneurs to consider the value of their ideas for promoting the national good but also guiding readers through a careful consideration of every step in the partnering process—from evaluating the partnership appropriateness of specific projects to setting priorities and developing a strategy that maximizes opportunity over the long term. In so doing, Carnes highlights the value of ongoing engagement with both program managers and policy makers as critical parts of any effort to promote one’s technology and achieve business goals.

There is much to consider and much to do when it comes to engaging in fruitful long-term relationships with the Federal government. Carnes couches her down-to-earth, detailed practical advice within an overall approach that recognizes the significant amount of effort and know-how involved: “I emphasize the importance of finding early on people to integrate into your team who can take you all the way through that journey—from initial research and strategizing to plotting effective communications across a variety of audiences, to finding ways of further enhancing successful, established partnerships.”

In response to the need for strategic, concerted effort, Next Generation Innovation can be read both as a primer for companies newly considering establishing government partnerships and as a timely reference for those looking to refresh and renew their approach.

Getting Out Of A Company's Golden Handcuffs Is Going To Take More Than Magic
For fourteen years Darcy Holtzman had been going to her job as the chief financial officer at the largest independent office products dealership in all of North Carolina, Burgess Industries. And then, one morning, she arrives at work to discover the owner and CEO is retiring, an announcement she anticipated more than the one that came after it: she would be taking on the title of vice president, and her hothead, controlling colleague, Ron Marchetti, would be the new president. Darcy knew right then that his appointment would change the course of company—potentially irreparably—and that it would take even more time and effort on her and the other managers’ part to keep the company operating.
Though the story of Darcy and Burgess Industries in The Big Turnaround is one of fiction, author Ellen McIlhenny draws from her real-life experiences as a chief financial officer and business advisor to give life to the everyday workplace issues that plague most of us at some point in our careers. How the characters in this novel work together (or don’t) will provide you—whether you’re a CEO or a staff member—insight on how similar points of contention in our own workplaces can be avoided and negotiated through.

ENSURE YOUR FAMILY’S FUTURE IS FULL OF POSSIBILITIES

Many successful parents have spent their lives creating a financial bonanza for themselves, as well as their children and grandchildren. What they didn’t plan for are the unintended consequences that increased wealth brings. These include issues like entitlement and loss of work ethic among the rising generation, and increased potential for upsets, disputes, and strained relationships that can often progress to separation and even lawsuits. Richard M. Del Monte, CFP®, CWC, wealth consultant and author of ENDLESS INHERITANCE: Moving from Feuding to Flourishing in Your Affluent Family aims to help affluent families prepare for and prevent the destructive forces that wealth brings, and help them resolve all their conflicts, prepare the heirs to handle the wealth they will inherit, and create a scenario in which money becomes a tool to unleash and achieve the family’s greatest potential, now and in future generations. Seventy percent of affluent families fail at passing on wealth through the second generation, meaning the kids either squander all the money or wind up fighting with or suing each other.

Written as a guide, ENDLESS INHERITANCE: Moving from Feuding to Flourishing in Your Affluent Family, outlines how to prepare the rising generation of a wealthy family—not just to inherit worldly goods, but to be engaged and contributing members of the family, to appreciate their shared history, resolve conflicts quickly before they escalate, and to be able to handle the responsibilities and opportunities that come with wealth. As a wealth consultant, asset manager, and trained specialist in family dynamics, Richard M. Del Monte outlines a plan of action supported by resources and exercises to empower parents and children alike to start the often difficult conversations needed to overcome poor relationships, lack of trust, and entitlement. The book addresses financial planning aspects wealthy families should consider, as well as the family’s interpersonal relationships and training that need to be addressed to ensure their wealth and family harmony last for generations.

A must-read for anyone hoping to master their financial future.

COCKROACHES DON’T CARE WHERE THEY SPEND THE NIGHT, BUT YOUR CUSTOMERS AND TENANTS DO

CONFIDENTLY CHOOSE THE BEST PEST CONTROL PROVIDER
PREVENT A PEST CONTROL CRISIS . . . SAVING YOU MONEY
ACHIEVE PEACE OF MIND KNOWING YOU ARE A RESPONSIBLE BUSINESS MANAGER OR OWNER
PROTECT YOUR BUSINESS BY AVOIDING COMPLAINTS, NEGATIVE EXPOSURE, AND EMBARRASSMENT

Every day in business we experience uncertainty, risks and emotional exposure to
winning and losing the battle for growth. There are many theoretical business
practices out there, but none as brilliant and simple as The Art of War by
Sun Tzu, which was used to win wars 2000 years ago. Sandler explains how to
apply these ancient military tactics in a modern business economy – to win
every battle without waging war. Her fundamental philosophy is no war has
been won without intelligence and never will. Wake Up or Die is a powerful,
exceptionally written treatise on the use of Intelligence in business today.
Sandler shares the "must haves" to thrive and grow, with actual
stories of winners and losers. This book is for all decision makers who want
to succeed in today's business world where "loss leaders" dominate,
consumers hold all the power, and competition intensifies. Boldly said, Wake
Up or Die goes where no one has dared to go and challenges every status quo.
If you want to win business battles, Wake Up or Die will show you how.
Sandler's frank and candid approach holds no bars; she believes the pendulum
of the mind oscillates between intellect and ignorance, not between right and
wrong.

Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Bolting the Big Firm (but were afraid to ask)

Under intense pressure from their corporate masters to sell products that clients may not need, many financial advisors desperately want to slip the golden handcuffs and become independent agents. However, they lack the initiative, the plan or the gumption to break away from the mothership, and so they continue to toil in psychic pain.

Carmine Corino and Daren Blonski know how they feel and have devised the blueprint for those who want to make the leap. Born of their own hard-earned experience, the self-deprecating duo lays out the path, identifies the landmines, offers shark repellant and prepares advisors for the emotional rollercoaster that lies ahead.

Part yogis, part older brothers, part wise-cracking best buddies, Corino and Blonski recount their own successes and failures, lessons learned and things they wished they’d done, all served with a soupcon of silly, because, as Ben and Jerry said, “If it’s not fun, why do it?”

Among the unexpected words of wisdom: "First, know yourself;" "Get the blessing of your spouse or it will be hell;" "Find an outlet for the inevitable stress;" "Keep your mouth shut beforehand;" and "Expect to be surprised who your friends are." Armed with their tried-and-true formula, any advisor in the country can extricate themselves from the vice grip of the big financial services company.

If you’re even contemplating making a move, this book is a must-read. It will save you a lot of trouble… and make you laugh along the way.

In the old-school advertising world of offline-only campaigns, the Marlboro Man reigned supreme. He successfully rebranded Marlboro as an ultimate masculine trademark and positioned them as the best-selling cigarettes in the world. However, in the modern marketing world, such marketing efforts fall flat, unable to maintain relevance.
Another masculine brand, Old Spice, capitalized on crowdsourced, digitally-driven content after its premiere of the Old Spice Guy at the Super Bowl. Old Spice proved that the marketing techniques required in today’s world are vastly different from those needed in the past. Drawing from over forty years of combined experience, Scott East and Ivan Aguilar share how marketing executives must learn new skills to shift from reactive marketing to proactive marketing. By adopting the qualities of one of the smartest predators in the ocean—the cuttlefish—marketers can go on the offensive and thrive.

First Wisdom, Then Wealth
Many people travel through life without ever creating a financial plan. They may be “too busy” or think it’s “too complicated.” However, having a plan can significantly improve your peace of mind and allow you to pursue your dreams to and through retirement.
In SIMPLIFY YOUR RETIREMENT, Stephen Stricklin addresses those who understand the importance of having a plan and who want freedom from financial worries. He details the “Five Principles of Financial Planning”: 1. No investment decisions outside the context of the plan. 2. The plan determines the products. 3. Don’t let your portfolio take a HIT (health care, inflation, and taxes). 4. Protect the income; grow the rest. 5. Financial peace comes from having a plan.
This book is for people who have investments, but do not have a plan. It’s for people who have a goal to retire, but want to know what to do in order to get there and then enjoy it.
