Published
by Times Books (the publishing division of media conglomerate
Times Group), the book expounds on the "The Ice-Cream
Dilemma", which is a situation that arises where
you have many flavours of ice-cream to choose from –
so many that it becomes difficult to make a choice. This is
similar to the situation regarding careers: when there are
too many career options, it becomes difficult to pick the
one that suits you best.
Helping
parents help their kids
Almost all parents have a common goal in life: to see their
child become successful in his career — to have job
security, a good salary and satisfaction in his work. However,
the modern educational system has changed so much that many
of them have no clue on how to guide their children in studies
and career decisions. The knowledge they had acquired in their
era has become obsolete now. As a result, they end up making
the critical mistake in identifying and nurturing their children's
abilities and wind up pushing their children into the wrong
directions and careers. In this book, Steven Paul guides parents
on how to genuinely get their kids on to the path of success.
Solving
the Ice-Cream Dilemma not only helps parents find out
what talent is, but also how it can be nurtured so their children
can lead fulfilling lives now and throughout their lives.
With the help of real case studies, references, tips and notes,
Steven Paul demonstrates how every child has the ability to
become successful, and that finding out a child's unique formula
for success is only a matter of minutes - when done the right
way. Not just that, he also guides parents on choosing the
right career for their kids, and creating their career path
to prepare them for the competitive and professional world
out there.
Making
Decisions Together
Most parents today are finding it increasingly difficult to
deal with their kids, especially when the talk veers to careers
and professional plans. The globalization of information has
made today’s kids highly opinionated, so much so that
they disregard the many valuable things that their parents
know about life and work. Moreover, many parents lack the
tact to deal with children of this generation and end up being
denounced for not being ‘up-to-date’. If you are
one such parent, it’s indeed time to work on your relationship
with your child. Solving The Ice-Cream Dilemma shows
you how!
The
book explores several ways in which a parent can lay the groundwork
to create an environment that is much more conducive to open
communication. Steven Paul’s simple yet super effective
suggestions will help parents understand their children better
and play a more active and acceptable role in their decisions.
Solving
the Great Career Question
If you are a parent, this pathbreaking book is your best bet
to solving the "great career question". Solving
the Ice-Cream Dilemma looks at the career landscape from
the point of view of your child's unique personality, keeping
in mind the importance of job security, income, status, and
job satisfaction.
Read
the book and find out the most effective method of helping
your child choose a career that makes the most of his best
attributes.

“Making
a career choice is difficult for
both parents and students –
especially when they have divergent
views. Solving the Ice-Cream
Dilemma scores a century
in helping bridge the gap.”

“I truly believe it is a
very well-timed book. It offers
practical tools to help kids make
the right career choices. Even
though we have several educators
who understand students’
problems, nobody has been able
to give practical solutions as
exhaustively as Solving the
Ice Cream Dilemma does.”
Ashish Rajpal,
CEO, iDiscoveri
Writer of the Foreword to the
book
"The book offers valuable
guidelines in handling ‘the
tyranny of choice’ that
overwhelms youngsters and parents
wanting to make ‘the best’
career choice for their child.
Through illustrative case studies,
the book examines how an individual’s
MIs and MNs facilitate the search
for the right vocation…..Indeed,
a lot can happen over ice cream!."
Dr. Kanika Aggarwal Khandelwal,
Associate Professor
Department of Psychology,
Lady Shri Ram College, Delhi University
“The Ice Cream Dilemma
really caught me off guard! I
had no idea there were so many
kinds of career options available
in the professional world today.
The book comprehensively discusses
the various aspects of a child’s
personality and the role a parent
can play in helping him leverage
his potential.”
