In this groundbreaking book Bill Bolton and John Thompson present a
completely new take on the conventional domains of entrepreneur,
leader and manager. They argue that in today's turbulent and
uncertain world, businesses no longer have the time for a business
cycle that begins with an entrepreneur, hands over to a manager and
finally brings in a strategic leader when things are flagging. 'The
New Normal' that now prevails requires that these things run
together and calls for a new kind of all-rounder. Bolton and
Thompson give us a new word to describe such a person: The
ENTIREPRENEUR The entirely competent person, able to discern aright
and make things happen. Drawing upon the successful person-centred
approach of their books on entrepreneurs they first tell the
stories of over 40 entirepreneurs, demonstrating clearly that such
people do exist. After discussing the 'New Normal' context they
present a fascinating analysis that goes below the surface to
describe the key Talent, Temperament, Technique and Discernment
attributes that explain the entirepreneur. Readers have the
opportunity to make a self-evaluation of their own attribute
strengths, concluding with a final 'entirepreneur' score. This
fascinating and insightful look at the entirepreneur is a clear
pointer to what will be demanded of those who wish to succeed amid
the vicissitudes of the 'New Normal'.

Talk about exploration and discovery this modern day flaneur
traveling throughout France in the early 1990's will showcase a
rather unique, one-of-a-kind photographic collection revealed in
published format for the very first time. This is a photo
documentary showcasing a collection of 25 uniquely different
illuminated pedestrian crossing signs (IPCS), also referred to as
pietons, discovered throughout a number of cities, towns and
banlieues all across France from 1991 through the summer of 1993.
All photographs of the figures showing the exact street
intersection location represent a double exposure technique in
order to capture both the red and green figure on the same color
film frame. The take-away message conveyed from this book is to
encourage people to explore, to go by foot, to roam about. Not only
is it healthy but one can truly experience so many more things
traveling at a leisurely pace.
In Izzy Goes Missing Izzi the bee gets lost and her brother sends
out a search party. Her friends look high and low but to no avail,
until they finally find her asleep in a flower.
This innovative book is about identifying and releasing
entrepreneurial potential. Using the idea of character themes, it
defines the entrepreneur in terms of six key themes, and provides
readers with the opportunity to assess themselves in these areas.
This book also discusses how entrepreneurs develop, or are stifled,
in society at large and within large organizations - the topic of
intrapreneurship - and considers how successful entrepreneurs
measure up against the six character themes identified. The authors
enable readers to identify their talents so that they can be more
creative, innovative and enterprising. Having read this book,
readers will have a better understanding of their entrepreneurial
potential. This book will be essential reading for the general
professional business market, and for students of entrepreneurship
and enterprise development at undergraduate, MBA and MSc levels.
"FACETS (Focus, Advantage, Creativity, Ego, Team and Social)
succinctly summarizes the themes of entrepreneurs that we at Gallup
have been studying and discovering during this last twenty years. I
believe the book will be an excellent tool for any person
practicing entrepreneurship and should be a required reading for
entrepreneurship study in colleges and universities." Don Clifton,
Chairman of Gallup International Research Centre, retired Chairman
of Gallup Inc The range of examples used really aim the text at
anyone interested in finding out about what is meant by those words
- 'entrepreneurship' and 'being entrepreneurial' and 'being
enterprising'. It could therefore be read by anyone thinking about
going into business on their own or just trying to understand how
they could be more enterprising." Frank Martin, Director of the MSc
in Entrepreneurial Studies and Director of the MBA in
Entrepreneurship and Business Venturing (distance learning),
University of Stirling
