THE GUIDE is overflowing with life skills for the young and young at heart. The comprehensive, well structured and practical advice is delivered in an entertaining and accessible style. It's a resource to influence others without being a preachy and condescending jerk.
Library & Information Association of New Zealand – Children’s Book Awards 2009 – Elsie Locke Award: Non-Fiction Category:
“The non-fiction category this year produced some very high quality titles. This is pleasing to see in an environment where children tend to turn to the computer for their information. All titles were readable with quality information and illustrations and are the sorts of books children will love to delve into... We would like to make special mention of “The Guide” by Mike Loder and Terry Williams. This self help guide for young adults is comprehensive and honest with loads of useful information. It is pleasing to see a book of this sort which is applicable to New Zealand.”
I have a deep understanding of critical influencing, presentation and communication skills. I'm a sought-after speaker and MC who shows international audiences simple but dramatically effective techniques to influence staff, customers, family and other important people in their lives.

It says: 'Don't be scared. You are not alone. Here is some well-supported wisdom to help YOU make decisions.' And the best thing about THE GUIDE is IT'S FUNNY. Not preachy, not boring, it doesn't sound like your mum; it's laugh-out-loud funny.
