Books
The new book, You 2.0 (out late April 24) expands on the direction taken in the first 2 books and focuses on using leadership to effect and manage change in your life, business (whether as an entrepreneur, director or manager), organisations, learning and so on, to maximise the impact of all that you do.
TIGPress is my newest venture and will see the publication of books about life, work and learning. These books will have two formats- full size 200 plus page books which will be available in e-format and paper versions; and smaller guide book editions. Our primary vehicle for these will be e-book or PDF format. This, I believe, will be the quickest and most effective way of disseminating the information contained with them.
You will be able to download the e-books from here if free, or purchase directly from here, Amazon, eBay and other e-book sites if the book is chargeable. Some of the books will also have a paper version which will follow some time after the e-book version.
Each of the main books feature a set of inter-connected ideas and strategies connected to improving a specific theme (work, presentations, life, education and so on), each with their own set of actions to complete. The books are designed to be read as either One Idea A Day, or in a chunk of related actions. Whichever way you choose to implement them, you will find yourself coming back to the books time and time again for inspirational ideas, strategies and tactics to help you achieve success.
Titles for this series so far include:
-
You 2.0: Build Yourself Better (out late April 2024)
-
What Managers Don’t Know (superseded by You 2.0)
-
Quality Leadership Is Your Business (superseded by You 2.0)

​
Mini books will include:
​
-
How to become a Time Lord: Time & Prioritisation Management
-

-
Stand up for your life: How to take charge of your life and be a happier, more successful person
Whilst my first two books and digests are still available, my new book You 2.o: Build Yourself Better has combined the best of those books, with brand new chapters and a 13th Principle of Success, into one new platform that will also be the basis of all future training and presentations in the fields of business, community and self-development.

COMING SOON BY
DARREN SMITHSON
Spaceships, time travel, cyborgs, travelling into the deep cosmos, living forever, multiple versions of you on alternate Earths, the grey goo... all these and more discussed in Darren's chatty style in a book designed to provoke discussion and engage the mind, especially the non-scientific mind, into the great unknown that is the future.
Also coming soon, Conspiracy: Waking Up To The Mind Control In Your Life, in which we ask the question of just who runs the world and why does it frustrate and exhaust the masses of humanity who inhabit it... the answers will surprise and shock you, and maybe, just maybe, begin the counter-revolution we all need to happen.
FREE PODCAST, CONTENT & TRAINING
I will also be adding a series of free podcasts, white papers and blog pieces, including audio and video blogs, to the ThinkWORKS pages. So make sure you visit regularly as I populate the pages.
Furthermore, I'll be creating some online training courses and lectures based on the materials in the main books, some of which will be free to enlist in, and even those that are fee based will be keenly priced to get as many people involved in changing the way we live and work as possible.
The links to these courses will be under the "Training & Events" menu link.
