Free (nook) Fred 2.0: New Ideas… by Mark Sanborn [Xtian Business Productivity Advice]

[ATDrake]

Fred 2.0: New Ideas on How to Keep Delivering Extraordinary Results by is Mark Sanborn, apparently a New York Times bestselling author, according to the cover, with a foreword by Re/Max CEO Margaret Kelly is a business creativity/productivity management self-help guide, free courtesy of Christian publisher Tyndale House.

Sanborn has also written secular business productivity guides for Crown Publishing, and a quick skim through this suggests that aside from a few scattered biblical quotations, this gives fairly standard make-your-business-better-with-a-better-approach tips in a pep talk kind of "inspirational" manner rather than an evangelical one, so non-religious businesspersons may well benefit from this freebie also.

Credit goes to spec over at the B&N Free Fridays blog comments for spotting this one.

Currently free @ B&N (also UK).
