Product Description
A guide to creating joyful success in work and in life

What the world needs is more showoffs.

Showing off is a good thing. Showing off is a mindset. Showing off is about living life and doing work in a way that creates joy, jazz, and a kick in our lives and in the lives of those around us. This is a business book for almost everyone–from executives and managers to receptionists and sales clerks. Here’s the key: success is an inside job. After 26 years of studying and working with top performers, Joe Calloway shares the key factors in creating success–without pulling any punches. Work Like You’re Showing Off! isn’t for sissies; it’s a tough, realistic approach to getting the most out of life by giving more to others.

This book proves that not only is "working like you’re showing off" the smartest way to get ahead in a career, it’s also the most joyful and rewarding way to live.Work Like You′re Showing Off! the absolute keys to personal and professional success including:

  • Never be as good as you′re going to be
  • What you think of me is none of my business
  • Expect to connect
  • Get back inside the box
  • Grand stupidity and absurd bravery
  • What have you done for me next?


From the Inside Flap

What the world needs is more showoffs—at work AND in life. If you′re not being your best, reaching your potential, and showing off, why show up at all?

The way Joe Calloway defines it, showing off is about bringing the best you have to any situation. It′s about excellence and exceeding expectations. Showing off is about the joy, jazz, and kick of being better tomorrow than you were today. It′s about creating real fulfillment in your life and in the lives of those around you. Showing off is a mindset that leads to success and satisfaction, and Work Like You′re Showing Off is a practical guide to creating and maintaining that mindset.

After twenty–six years of studying and working with top performers, Calloway shares the key factors for creating success without pulling any punches. Work Like You′re Showing Off advises you to stop talking and start doing. Be focused, productive, and above all else, intentional in your pursuit of happiness. Showoffs go "all in" and call everyone else′s bluff with the confidence that their capability and productivity will speak for itself.

No matter what you do or where you are on the career ladder, Work Like You′re Showing Off gives you the inspiration and tools to attain higher levels of productivity and satisfaction. Inside, you′ll learn key success factors, including the power of consistent performance, letting go of past assumptions, embracing responsibility, and expecting to connect, among others. Once you commit to these factors and stick to them, you′ll become more energetic, more dedicated, more competent, and ultimately, more successful.

Showing off is about creating joy and success for yourself through giving to others. This unique and enlightening guide will help you open the door to professional success—and improve every aspect of your life in the process.

4.0 out of 5 stars Motivational guide to being your best, 27 April 2009
By Rolf Dobelli "getAbstract.com" (Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Joe Calloway encourages you to pull out all stops and become the best at what you do, a real show-off. Most of his material, which is drawn from his inspirational lectures, is amped-up common sense: Don't promise more than you can deliver; figure out how to do what you already do better. He provides useful, though time-worn, advice. Calloway finds inspiration in the most unlikely places, such as watching a diligent barista at a mall coffee shop, and presents readers with brief, easy lessons. Each item gives you a little something to chew on and urges you toward a better self. getAbstract recommends this book for a quick shot of positive thinking, small but mighty in its inspirational punch.
