“Joyce Weiss in Full Speed Ahead (Bloomfield Press) challenges the reader to deal with change on a personal and professional level as a way to maximize opportunity. The book starts with charging your life’s battery with a positive attitude and brakes with a discussion of goal-setting and prioritizing. Each chapter has helpful worksheets that drive Weiss’ points home. Chapter 7, covering creativity, was a personal favorite because it identifies the mental roadblocks to creativity and shows how one can detour around them.”
Jim Pawlak

Joyce Weiss helps the reader enact clear, immediately useable strategies for overcoming these roadblocks. Full Speed Ahead contains worksheets and action plans at the end of each chapter to help people create their own workshops for overcoming burnout, improving communication skills, and unlocking creativity. Full Speed Ahead also discusses how to appreciate diversity in the workplace and in personal relationships, which can be a great catalyst for creativity. Full Speed Ahead is a kind of workshop in book format and highly recommended reading whose precepts and exercises, if applied faithfully, will most certainly result in improved personal and professional accomplishment!”
