REVIEWS
One of the most important pieces of research since Challenger, The Salesperson’s Secret Code embodies everything that truly professional salespeople would wish to be. The book shows how holding certain beliefs about selling can predict success. For the first time, our ‘sales industry’ can focus not just on perfecting processes and skills, but also on what causes people to be successful in the first place.
Nick Porter, Chairman of the Association of Professional Sales
This is not just a book for salespeople. It’s a book for everyone. Everyone in every role sells themselves. The authors highlight life skills that encourage us all to be better, more accomplished and more confident humans. A great manual for life.

Business Alchemy
In this enlightening and engaging book, Andrew Wallas views the company from a metaphysical perspective to provide a new approach to transforming the organization. Business Alchemy focuses on the inner dynamics and energy flow within the organization itself, seeing where there is visible and hidden contradiction working against the aims of the company. It is by taking a deeper look inside of your company (instead of focusing on the outer machinations of your business), and by bringing these (often unconscious) blocks to light, that energy is released and the company is then free to move forward, fully aligned with its stated objectives and goals. This is a unique perspective on how companies can evolve and grow naturally and successfully.
