"From Paperboy to Boomer" is a 64-page quick-read that is an illustrated paperback, and tells the stories about the 10 Skill Sets we all learned as kids. It describes work standards, people practices, business basics, and leadership skills that we Boomers learned while we were only 13 & 14 years old, and defines the foundation of the Boomer Work Ethic: Self-discipline, self-initiative, and self-motivation!
I've started this blog to accompany my new book, and want to hear your stories of the lessons you learned while you delivered newspapers and mowed yards.
My book also includes a "Tool Kit" appendix for business owners to use to interview, train, and evaluate their employees, based on the 10 Skill Sets.
The website for the book is BoomersBook.Biz and on Facebook at "Boomers Book." The new book will be released nationwide in mid-August 2011.
This blog will be the starting point for lots of memories and stories for you to continue telling. Let's start collecting our thoughts and maybe it will become the follow-up book!
Nice job with the blog. You are a publicist, marketing maniac in sheep's clothing. The new book looks awesome. I wish you great success with it.
