Miles to Go

'There are multiple sides to all of us. Who we are and who we might be if we follow our dreams.' -Miley Cyrus Three years ago Miley Cyrus was a virtual unknown. Her life in rural Tennessee was filled with family friends school cheerleading and the daily tasks of living on a farm. And then came a little show called Hannah Montana. Almost overnight Miley would rocket to superstardom becoming a television and singing phenomenon. Quiet days were replaced with sold-out concerts television appearances and magazine shoots. But through it all Miley has remained close to her family and friends and has stayed connected to the Southern roots that made her so strong. In Miles to Go Miley offers an honest humorous and often touching story of one girl's coming-of-age--from private moments with her pappy to off-roading with her dad Billy Ray to her run-ins with mean girls. Miley talks about suffering through drama and heartbreak and coming out the other end unscathed (relatively). And now for the first time she will discuss it all-the milestones still left to reach (driver's license! voting!) dreams to live out (travel to Asia! find true love!) and the lessons to be learned (remembernig to enjoy every moment!). This is a truly unique look inside the world of one of today's biggest and brightest stars as she tackles looking back and moving forward.

Immunity to Change (Leadership for the Common Good)

A recent study showed that when doctors tell heart patients they will die if they don't change their habits only one in seven will be able to follow through successfully. Desire and motivation aren't enough: even when it's literally a matter of life or death the ability to change remains maddeningly elusive.Given that the status quo is so potent how can we change ourselves and our organizations?In Immunity to Change authors Robert Kegan and Lisa Lahey show how our individual beliefs--along with the collective mind-sets in our organizations--combine to create a natural but powerful immunity to change. By revealing how this mechanism holds us back Kegan and Lahey give us the keys to unlock our potential and finally move forward. And by pinpointing and uprooting our own immunities to change we can bring our organizations forward with us.This persuasive and practical book filled with hands-on diagnostics and compelling case studies delivers the tools you need to overcome the forces of inertia and transform your life and your work.
