I have a dad and a stepdad and nearly every year I have to search the Father’s Day card section for cards that don’t have fishing or golfing themes. Did this card just assume my dads’ hobbies? So problematic!

Rather than agonize over the perfect card he’ll read and put in a drawer because he feels guilty throwing it away, give one of these books instead.

Agent of Influence: How to Use Spy Skills to Persuade Anyone, Sell Anything, and Build a Successful Business by Jason Hanson. I did an interview with the author last week. From the book description:

“In Agent of Influence, bestselling author Jason Hanson, a former CIA special agent and founder of Spy Escape School, reveals how anyone can use spy tactics for increased success, from learning how to strategically plan your day to mastering the steps you’ll need to embrace challenges and set achievable, personal goals. He teaches you how to develop a winning sales personality and target the perfect business opportunity using the SADR cycle — ‘spotting,’ ‘assessing,’ ‘developing,’ and ‘recruiting.’ With this invaluable and unique handbook, you will become a more productive, confidant professional or entrepreneur.”
