Learn to Achieve Sustainable Success from Mark Sanborn, Author of UP, DOWN, OR SIDEWAYS

Jan. 8, 2012 - PRLog -- Atlanta, GA (January 2, 2012) – Tune in to insightful and unrivaled interviews with authors of leading business books on the StrategyDriven Podcast. Unlike typical author interviews, Nathan Ives, MBA, PMP goes beyond the written word directly to the day-to-day application of principles readers can immediately implement in their businesses.  Find out how Mark Sanborn, author of UP, DOWN, OR SIDEWAYS, responds to questions Nathan asks about the actions anyone can take to achieve sustainable success, as they define it, regardless of their circumstances. This podcast is now available at www.StrategyDriven.com.  Listen to learn about the three key actions one must engage in to achieve sustainable success.
   “If you’re like me,” begins Mark Sanborn, “you’ve probably experienced days – maybe months or years – when you feel as if you are being swept along by life.”  The question, says Mark, “Is it possible to create sustainable success?”  UP, DOWN, OR SIDEWAYS reveals the mind-sets and approaches enabling individuals to succeed when times are good, bad, or in-between.
   Nathan only selects titles that meet a stringent set of StrategyDriven requirements. First, the title must be aligned with the StrategyDriven mission of delivering best practice solutions to small- and medium-sized businesses, including strategic planning, decision-making, leadership, management, and organizational performance.  Secondly, the authors must be highly respected in their field of study.
   StrategyDriven author interviews are uniquely different than the average book review.  The primary difference, these podcasts are not simply book reviews or summaries.  Nathan reads each book prior to the interview and questions the author for a deeper understanding of the important strategies discussed in the book and probes for examples of real-world implementation of those strategies.  As a result, listeners get more information, including, author advice not contained within the book; offering additional value listeners can incorporate into their business model.  Additionally, StrategyDriven interview articles contain quick links to supplementary materials provided by the author.
