Summary:
Attitude can be sexy. A practical and inspirational guide for using kindness and positivity as a winning strategy from Celebrity Apprentice champion Leeza Gibbons. We live in a winner-take-all world, in which only the toughest thrive. On the surface, from the living room to the boardroom, it's certainly no place for nice. Civility and kindness are often the price of admission, and empowering communication is checked at the door. Leeza Gibbons has fiercely redefined optimism, and uses positive communication as an empowerment strategy to win with class. She refuses to to sacrifice kindness as she has succeeded in getting ahead. Working for decades in an intense, often merciless industry that rewards novelty, ruthlessness, and the next big thing she has applied smart principles and excelled through savviness. But redefining nice does not mean being a pushover. As the winning contestant on the hit show Celebrity Apprentice, the former host of Entertainment Tonight relied on her fresh and authentic mentality and smart strategies to outmaneuver the other contestants without disempowering them. Throughout the competition, Leeza kept her cool and, most importantly, remained true to herself and her values. In this book, she reveals the secrets of her years of success and bares the stories and vulnerable moments that led to where she is today. Her success is proof that optimism works. You can play it your way and still win. Leeza Gibbons was the co-host for the TV show Entertainment Tonight from 1984 to 2000 and had her own syndicated daytime talk show, Leeza from1993 to 2000. She was the winner in the NBC reality game-show series Celebrity Apprentice in 2015.
