Going SocialWhen it comes to business, you’ve seen fads come and you’ve seen them go, but you know that social media is here to stay. Author Jeremy Goldman offers plenty of advice to help take away some of the frustration in using Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and the like. He’s included plenty of first-hand accounts from other businesses, large and small, and starts with the basics. Goldman tackles pitfalls and cautions, since being quick on your feet seems to be necessary in nearly everything online. Buy Going Social here.

 
 
 
 
 
Stiletto NetworkWhile men may still benefit from the Old Boys network, author Pamela Ryckman is showing women are organizing in ways the “Good Ol’ Boys Club” never dreamed about. Powerful women in business have, for years, been quietly gathering their peers together for support, and, in “Stiletto Network,” Ryckman, says, they’re not just offering one another career and business help: they’re sharing personal stories, information, childcare tips, and friendship. Buy Stiletto Network here.

Shoen offers suggestions to teach your brain to learn new habits. Buy Your Survival Instinct is Killing You here.
