Descripción editorial
WITH WINNING CONDITIONS, EVERYONE CAN FIND THEIR EXTRAORDINARY.
Let’s face it—professional success isn’t built only on the work itself. Instead, it’s often largely influenced by the manner in which you share or present your work. Small improvements in delivery can result in substantial improvements in outcome. People succeed not simply because they deliver a winning work product or idea, but also because they deliver their work in a winning way.
Winning Conditions is a joyful, insightful, and empowering book about delivering your work and ideas so that they (and you!) are more likely to be recognized, accepted, and celebrated. With Winning Conditions, you can show the world what you are capable of—it’s probably more than you ever thought possible.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A cheerful, get-out-the-pom-poms business guide arrives from consulting actuary and first-time author Hofbeck. She directs her advice and encouragement to hard-working businesspeople who have wondered, as she once did, why the "best" person i.e., oneself doesn't always succeed. Success, she argues, is not just about the work one does, but about how one presents it delivering "winning work" in a "winning way," and creating a winning story around it. Hofbeck guides readers through the process of getting better at defining and communicating their own value and brand, self-reflection, building a support system, tailoring messages to the audience, and developing charisma, garnishing her advice with a little bit of behavioral economics and a lot of her own story and path to success, from making a bad first impression in a meeting with her company's CFO, to being appointed to the Society of Actuaries' board of directors. Fans of Survivor should particularly enjoy her story, as references to her 2017 stint on the show, and second-place finish, appear throughout. The advice is not particularly new, but the easy-to-follow presentation and encouraging tone may be just what's needed for readers doing the work but not reaping the reward.
