Success is a simple thing that most people believe to be something mysterious and complicated - the reality, according to Paul Bassi, is something completely different. In the vast majority of cases, the people at the top have got there by following disciplines that open to everyone. The truth about success is that it's closer than you might think but harder work than you expect. Anyone can be successful in life - by your own definition, which is the only one that really matters - if you set yourself a central ambition and follow some fundamental principles about how it can be achieved. While the advice in this book may look primarily at business and property, the underlying themes are applicable to whatever life and career you wish to pursue. Drawing on stories from his youth, early career, family life and his current position as one of the Midlands' most prominent property investors, Paul Bassi shows how you can plan your own journey to success. It won't be easy; it won't happen overnight; and it won't come without making sacrifices. But if you want it badly enough and are prepared to be disciplined and relentless in your approach, it is all perfectly possible. This book will show you exactly what it takes.

Peter Cappelli confronts the myth of the skills gap and outlines a practical path to reintegrate people into the workforce. Despite high unemployment, companies claim they struggle to find qualified employees, attributing this to a perceived skills gap. Employers argue that schools fail to prepare students, the government restricts high-skill immigration, and job seekers reject positions due to low wages. In this compelling and concise book, Cappelli, a Wharton management professor, debunks these claims and reveals the true reasons behind hiring challenges. He analyzes job data, shares anecdotes from both employers and employees, and conducts interviews with job professionals to explore the complex dynamics affecting the American workplace. Key questions he addresses include the existence of a skills gap, the impact of automated hiring processes, the best training methods to align employer expectations with applicant realities, and the accountability of educational institutions. Recognized as one of HR Magazine's Top 20 Most Influential Thinkers of 2011, Cappelli not only transforms our understanding of hiring but also offers solutions to revive America's job market.
