W. Scott Peck said that the work of love is attention and the greatest expression of attention is listening. Help your team express love to seniors by enhancing their listening skills. Listening is a critical skill for leaders, and for the all members of the team. Make the six steps of listening part of your culture.
Save your or your elder’s story forever.
Save the story, not just the chronology.
Using my approach described in LIFElines, I will work with you (or your parent, grandparent, elder, senior…) to find the essence of the story and the thread by which you want your story held together. Your life story will then be prepared, up to 10 photos from your personal collection added, and a book produced. Your book will not be sold to the public, unless you choose to. The order page for additional copies is private. This program includes:
- Interviews (number determined by length of book, other materials available, etc.), and a questionnaire to be filled out. Email access.
- One photo session.
- Writing the book (Price based on word count. Minimum, 10,000 words. Approximate length agreed upon before work commences.)
- Editing, proofing and delivery of first draft; changes from customer edits for accuracy.
- Basic cover design and book layout. Softback or hardback decisions must be made prior to design.
- Delivery of two final books. Additional copies may be ordered directly from the printer through a specific order page.
