/24-7PressRelease/ - MILL CREEK, WA, July 31, 2008 - Laura Leist, an expert on Organizing & Productivity using Microsoft Outlook, is launching her new book in New York, NY on August 1st at the National Speaker's Association conference. The book titled: Business Solutions Using Microsoft Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager has been anticipated by Leist's client base for several months. Leist has previously published Organizing & Customizing with Microsoft Outlook - for both 2003 and 2002 versions of the software. Almost since the release of the software in early 2007, Laura has been receiving requests for this book, including one from Microsoft.
"Most of the Outlook 2007 books on the market show you 'how' to use the components of Outlook; such as: Inbox, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks and Notes. This book is different because it tells you 'WHY' you want to use certain features of the program and how to get the most from them," explains Leist.
Leist stated that she is "not just another 'author' writing a book about Microsoft Outlook. Many technical writers are more than capable of doing this. Instead, I am an Organizing & Productivity Consultant with an education in Management Information Systems and Technical Writing." I have taught Microsoft Outlook Classes for over a decade - beginning at community colleges in the Seattle area. It was in the 1990's when I began to get frustrated with the quality of the training materials I was being asked to teach with. While the books I used taught the students 'how' to use each component, what it did not explain was "HOW" to use all of the components together and "WHY" you would want to do this - thus maximizing the use of this program. It was because of this that I decided that I needed to write my own class materials, which eventually turned into my first Outlook book."
Organizing & Customizing with Microsoft Outlook 2007 is the most comprehensive Outlook book that Leist has written. It is chock full of ideas, tips and suggestions for how you can apply this to your business.
