If You Think Incidental Meetings Are Just Incidental, Think Again - New Book Challenges Readers to Recognize the Impact Random Encounters Can Have on Their Lives

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) November 01, 2011

If you think incidental meetings are just incidental, think again, says Kristin S. Kaufman, former Hewlett-Packard powerhouse, current principal, Alignment, Inc., and author of new book "Is This Seat Taken? Random Encounters That Change Your Life" (Brown Books Publishing Group). We live in a world that is moving so fast, we are apt to miss much of what is happening right now."

Readers will discover the enormous impact that random encounters can have on their lives and how these encounters become a compass, pointing them on their own road to alignment, fulfillment and success.

"Is This Seat Taken?" offers important life lessons that force the typical executive - and indeed all of us - to ponder what it means to truly be present in the moment.

Drawing from real-life experiences, Kaufman reveals a collection of highly personal stories to illustrate how a wealth of wisdom may come from the most unusual and unlikely sources such as a taxi cab driver, a bartender, or clerk in a department store.

"Is This Seat Taken?" is an inspirational read interspersed with meaningful personal reflections," says Barbara Braham, PhD, MCC, author of "Finding Your Purpose."

Through a series of vignettes and notable takeaways at the close of each chapter, Kaufman hopes readers will learn the importance of random encounters and how they can change their lives

Whether you are a soccer mom or a jet-setting corporate executive who frequently travels to varied and far-flung places, Is This Seat Taken? illustrates the core idea of being present in the moment and opening oneself up to new ideas in order to become an authentic leader in life, says Stephen R. Covey, author, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" and "The Leader in Me."

"Kaufman is brilliant in illustrating how chance encounters can provide rich opportunities to learn," says Ann V. Deaton, PhD, PCC, managing partner, Bounce.

Adds Robert Jordan, former US Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, partner, Baker-Botts, LLC, Kaufman has an uncanny ability to connect the wisdom of cab drivers and bartenders with the core issues of our everyday lives."

Through her deep, intuitive understanding and unique way of building trust, Kristin communicates stories that both teach and inspire us all, says Wendy S. Lea, CEO, Get Satisfaction.

The message is simple says, Christine M. Wahl, MAEd, MCC, Georgetown University, "pay attention and get engaged in life." Gary Kelly, CEO, president and chairman, Southwest Airlines adds, "The random encounter offers unplanned opportunity."

Thousands of individuals unknowingly contribute to the creation of our lives, says Kaufman. Over the years, these serendipitous exchanges have made imprints on my mind and heart and served as catalysts for my ongoing growth and development.

This collection of Kristins chance encounters may cause you to look at life and every stranger you meet a little differently. I have always believed that you can learn something from every person who comes into your life. says Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager and Lead with LUV

The Deals Just Keep On Closing for Atlanta Technology Angels

Atlanta (PRWEB) September 20, 2011

The Atlanta Technology Angels (ATA) and its members recently completed several new deals, including funding (or participating in funding) Verdeeco, TripLingo and Brightwhistle. ATAs goal is to help build these portfolio companies into thriving enterprises.

We are thrilled to announce these new financings and to have the opportunity to partner and participate with companies of this caliber, says Mike Eckert, ATAs executive chairman. ATA is enjoying its best deal flow in several years, and we look forward to working on several more.

Committed to helping steward the companies in which its members invest, ATA works closely with their entrepreneurs and management teams. In fact, several members of ATA are on Verdeecos board of directors and helped lead the companys financing. Knowing that ATA was the lead investor on this opportunity, other angel groups in the Southeast participated.

Through their years of experience in running successful businesses, ATAs members have brought more than just capital to the company, adds M.K. Khan, CEO of Verdeeco. They continue to serve as the management teams advisers, mentors, and committed partners keeping the company focused on both short-term objectives and long-term strategy.

In addition, ATA members investment in Brightwhistle, a deal led by Hamilton Ventures, represents an ongoing trend of partnering with venture capital (VC) and private equity firms to finance promising companies. For example, ATA also partnered with TechOperators, a well-known VC in Atlanta that is also an ATA member, in a financing HireIQ Solutions earlier this year.

Weve found the level of professionalism and added value in co-investing with ATA to be refreshing. It is doing a great job of addressing a vital need in the local technology community, says Glenn McGonnigle, General Partner of TechOperators, in reference to working with Devon Wijesinghe, ATA board member and lead investor for ATA on the HireIQ deal.

One of the reasons we like to work with ATA is that it has its finger on the pulse of the Atlanta startup scene, and Brightwhistle is a great example. The ability to aggregate ATA resources helped get this deal done, adds Jamie Hamilton, an ATA member who also runs Hamilton Ventures. The value derived from being a part of ATA, both to entrepreneurs and angel investors, is incalculable. Since becoming a member, I have had the chance to be involved in very exciting companies.

TripLingo is another exciting company that ATA has supportedin the earliest stages. This language translation firm created a cell phone app to help busy travelers learn languages on the go. It was only six months old when Richard Spencer, board director of ATA, stepped in to help lead its successful financing.

I invested in TripLingo because it has a smart, creative team addressing a specific need in a fragmented market. But I also thought, If they could do that in a matter of a few months, what else could they do in this field? notes Spencer. I like the people, I like the product, and I like the promise of whats to come.

That promise of whats to come is what drives ATA to fund and help such companies reach their potential. They have completed four additional follow-on financings this year, bringing the total of completed deals to eight. Many more are in the works.
