General Questions and Comments
Good day to everyone. I've been listening to your cast for half a year now and I am completely astounded how useful your guidance is. I'm a young team leader in-training and I literally inhale everything from your site. I see a great improvement in the way I am perceived in the organization and the way I achieve my goals and professional objectives. The only problem is - I am running out of casts!!! I want more... I need more... (Call it knowledge-addiction) question: Do you offer any CDs/DVDs/Books which can be bought in Europe ? (I'm a pack rat type of a person - I like to keep my collection on a shelf)

We're all waiting for Mark's book. It's a long story. :) Do you get the member casts? There is also the interview series.

There's also the list of books. There's some really good stuff in there.

I go back and listen to old casts. I frequently find new nuggets, or reminders of things I forgot I should be doing.

Whilst you're waiting for the fabled Horstman text get stuck into Drucker, particularly Management: Tasks, Responsibilities, Practices. It is brilliant, dense, and a whopping 800+ pages of small font, so by the time you've read it carefully, Mark's book might be done. Then again, I've been waiting since 2005 for 'Horstman on Management'..... :wink:

Already finished Drucker, Suzy and Jack Welch "Winning" as well. Sun Tzu and "Funky Business" by Jonas Ridderstrale and Kjelle Nordstrom is also pretty inspiring. I do like to read (usually at least one good book a month) so believe me I know what is good on the market. There are several positions recommened here that are new to me, so you might get some time off and not worry about me nagging you too much.

The topic is not about third party books/cd/dvds though - I want to get some of stuff that is from here. I do have all the casts backuped on a DVD. Upgrading to premium is also an option but I'd rather pay in Euro since this is more comfortable for me. Also, as I mentioned before I like to keep valuable things organized. I hope you won't let me wait for too long :)

As a fellow Euro my advice to you is just take the plunge on the premium and interview series if you haven't already and accept the dollar conversion on the credit card payment - it's worth it. That and exercise patience for Mark's book - I'm confident it will be worth the wait :)

Still can't afford it (ahhh those central european salaries :) ) but no worries
I have a gut feeling that sooner or later I'll get there. If not this year then in years to come. I'm just 26 and still have plenty of time to learn (though I don't want to wake up in my thirties still being in the same spot). At this stage I think I'll upgrade to premium membership pretty soon.
