As Kurt Vonnegut once said, “True terror is to wake up one morning and discover that your high school class is running the country.” When it comes down to it, workæwith its know-it-alls, gossips, and brown-nosersæis a lot like high school. This clever and useful book helps readers identify and better communicate with these and other common types we all remember from the days when report cards, not business reports, were our concern, and when the big social event was the prom, not the company picnic. You don’t need to dig out your yearbook to get a glimpse of these typesæjust take a look around your office: the Teacher’s Pet, the Player, the Cheerleader, the Go-Getter, the Underachiever, the Class Clown, and many more. With wit and uncanny accuracy, corporate coaches Wilma Davidson and Jack Dougherty outline all the members of the “class,” offering tips on working efficiently with each type, whether they’re your boss, your client, or a colleague. The book also delivers advice on handling authority, conformity, looks, popularity, “sex education,” and other indignities from high school that live on in the workplace. Whether you’re still the same as you were in high school, a combination of types, or a reformed Rebel turned Class President, you will delight in and learn from this unique guide.

From centuries-old battlefields to present-day disasters, Wilma Davidson has coaxed countless earthbound spirits-confused children, loyal soldiers, malevolent entities, and stubborn Titanic passengers-to "the Light." In recounting her extraordinary experiences, she brings warmth, honesty, and humor to a subject often avoided and misunderstood: death. This revealing testimonial to the spirit world aims to create awareness, offer credibility, and bring comfort to those who fear crossing over. Davidson's poignant and insightful stories fill in little-known details about ghosts, animal spirits, non-human entities, near-death experiences, angels, and reincarnation. The author also introduces an entire cross-section of the paranormal-spiritual healing, psychic protection, dowsing, astral travel, feng shui, geopathic stress-and gives practical advice for those who wish to follow in her footsteps.
