Sorry - I forgot to mention that I need to confirm the page numbers for the quotes used in the review. Can someone contact me for this? I've provided the quotes below, along with their location on my kindle.
"Much to my surprise, when I combined hood wisdom with everything I could learn in an academic setting, it was soon evident that one of the best ways to differentiate an idea from those of other people is to think about the same questions used for college and scholarship essays: What's my story? What sets me apart? How do my goals and dreams fit with the foundation's parameters or the institution's goals? In other words: What sets my idea apart, and how can I tell that story?" (p. loc 1500 / 51%)
"The new paradigm is what thought leaders like Keith Ferrazzi call relationships aimed at mutual elevation. When you begin to think in terms of WHO would elevate you and WHO you could elevate, you're creating more than a network—you're creating a community. And rather than transactional, the networking watchwords are mutually supportive, complementary, and collaborative." (p. loc 2411 / 82%)
