Stellar Management Teams
by Vesa Ristikangas Tapani RinneManagement teams at all levels, and individual team members in particular, are often disengaged and disconnected from the management function itself. Statements such as, "we lack common goals or they are unclear", "I have no influence", "I am not listened to nor taken into account", and "I do not feel valued – actually, nobody does", are commonplace. The authors argue this is because we have been entrenched in an era of guru leadership but that it must come to an end if our management teams are to rise to the top. An individual is not capable of controlling the complicated system of an organization, with its countless variables, especially in conjunction with the rapid change in both the economy and market forces, which are unpredictable and uncontrollable. No matter how talented the individual, no one person is in a position to manage this complex system alone – not even a guru leader. The authors contend that what is needed now are resilient trendsetters who will bring about a new era of top-performing teams that together form a "collective guru", which they refer to as a Stellar Management Team. In this book, the reader undertakes a metaphorical journey to the stars, which symbolizes top-level interaction and collaboration. The journey is the development from an ordinary management team into a Stellar Management Team, which elevates its operation up to a new level of performance and success.

Still, in the City: Creating Peace of Mind in the Midst of Urban Chaos
by Angela DewsStill, in the City is a collection of stories about the practice of urban Buddhism—when a New York City subway becomes a mobile temple, when Los Angeles traffic becomes a vehicle for awakening, when a Fifth Avenue sidewalk offers a spiritual path through craving, generosity, and sorrow. The instructions offered here for exploring mindfulness in and around our cities are written to be accessible, whether you’ve practiced a lot or a little. Perhaps you’ve returned home from a retreat and want to hold the attention and intention gained from pausing and experiencing the silence. Or perhaps you practice mindfulness and don’t call it Buddhism, or you are just curious about what mindfulness is all about. Still, in the City will speak to you.Practicing in the city comes with its own set of challenges and opportunities, and this book is attuned to both, offering guidance by teachers who see mindfulness not only as an intention for self-acceptance and relief of stress, but also as awareness that leads to dissatisfaction and that inspires our desire for deeper understanding and change. Dedicated to using their practice to make a difference not only in their own lives but also those of others, the authors speak of their involvement with their cities’ diverse communities, and their experience belies the notion that western Buddhists are of an age and race and class.There is amazing clarity in stillness, and the opportunity for a skillful response rather than a reaction, even to injustice. And there is the possibility of equanimity and of freedom, everywhere and for all.

Stone's Rules: How to Win at Politics, Business, and Style
by Tucker Carlson Roger StoneRules to live by from the master of political dark arts, as seen in the award-winning documentary Get Me Roger StoneAt long last, America’s most notorious political operative has released his operating manual!A freedom fighter to his admirers, a dirty trickster to his detractors, the flamboyant, outrageous, articulate, and extraordinarily well-dressed Roger Stone lays out Stone’s Rules—the maxims that have governed his legendary career as a campaign operative for four American presidents, from Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump.As a raconteur, pundit, prognosticator, and battle-scarred veteran of America’s political wars, Roger Stone shares his lessons on punking liberals and playing the media, gives an inside look at his push to legalize marijuana, details how much "linen" to show at the cuff of an impeccably-cut suit, lays out how and why LBJ orchestrated the murder of JFK, and reveals how to make the truly great marinara sauce that is the foundation of Stone’s legendary Sunday Gravy.Along the way, Stone dishes on the "cloak and dagger" nitty-gritty that has guided his own successes and occasional defeats, culminating in the election of the candidate he first pushed for the presidency in 1988, Donald J. Trump.First revealed in the Weekly Standard by Matt Labash and commemorated by CNN’s Jeffrey Toobin, the blunt, pointed, and real-world practical Stone’s Rules were immortalized in the Netflix smash hit documentary Get Me Roger Stone—part Machiavelli's The Prince, part Sun Tzu’s The Art of War, all brought together with a highly-entertaining blend of culinary and sartorial advice from the Jedi Master of political dark arts.From "Attack, attack, attack!" inspired by Winston Churchill, to "Three can keep a secret, if two are dead,” taken from the wall of mob boss Carlos Marcello’s headquarters, to Stone’s own “It is better to be infamous than to never have been famous at all,” Roger Stone shares with the world all that he’s learned from his decades of political jujitsu and life as a maven of high-style. From Stone’s Rules for campaign management to the how-to’s of an internet mobilization campaign to advice on custom tailoring to the ingredients for the perfect martini from Dick Nixon's (no-longer) secret recipe, Stone has fashioned the truest operating manual for anyone navigating the rough-and-tumble of business, finance, politics, social engagement, family affairs, and life itself.

Stop vermoeidheid: Hoe je je leven terugkrijgt
by Lisa GibsonHet chronisch vermoeidheidssyndroom (CVS) is een van de vaakst gediagnosticeerde "mysterieuze" aandoeningen. Meer dan een miljoen Amerikanen lijden aan het chronisch vermoeidheidssyndroom, en dat worden er alleen maar meer. Deze ziekte treft meer mensen dan multiple sclerose, lupus, en vele soorten kanker. CVS komt vier keer vaker voor bij vrouwen dan bij mannen. Waarom neemt CVS toe? Is het een soort epidemie of is CVS een vangnetdiagnose geworden voor alle aandoeningen waarbij je last hebt van vermoeidheid en pijn, maar de dokter niks kan vinden? Een syndroom is per definitie een rijtje symptomen die systematisch gelijktijdig optreden. In werkelijkheid is chronische vermoeidheid dus geen ziekte, maar een stel symptomen. Deze symptomen kunnen ernstig, levensbedreigend en invaliderend zijn. Dus de hamvraag is: wat veroorzaakt al deze symptomen? Dieet, ziektes, omgevingsfactoren, of alle bovenstaande? Helaas heeft de gezondheidszorg meer vragen dan antwoorden. Door deze onbeantwoorde vragen blijven mensen met CVS uitzichtloos achter, en moeten zij zich neerleggen bij het feit dat ze misschien hun hele leven last zullen blijven hebben van deze invaliderende symptomen. Maar je hoeft je leven hierdoor niet te laten bepalen. Er zijn zowel traditionele als niet-traditionele behandelingen die je kunnen helpen om erachter te komen wat de onderliggende oorzaken van je symptomen zijn en hoe je deze symptomen kunt verminderen. Wat is de oplossing De beste manier om CVS te overwinnen is om erachter te komen waardoor je symptomen écht veroorzaakt worden. Dus in dit boek laat ik je het volgende zien: - Dat virussen en infecties symptomen van CVS kunnen veroorzaken - Waarop je je kunt laten onderzoeken bij de dokter - Welke veranderingen in levensstijl je kunt toepassen om je symptomen te verminderen en je leven te verbeteren - Technologische vorderingen op het gebied van de behandeling van de onderliggende oorzaken van CVS - Medicijnen, supplementen en voedings

Story in the Stars: Discovering God's Design and Plan for Our Universe
by Joe AmaralAn in-depth look at the powerful story and symbolism behind God's unique design of our universe.Thousands of words have been written about the first ten words in the Bible: "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth," a simple and profound statement that has ignited a firestorm of debate and controversy. People often only focus on the "how" and "when" of creation, but Story in the Stars explores the "why." Why did God create such a vast universe? Why did He choose the sun and moon to light our paths? Why did He design images with stars in the night sky?The Bible is very clear when it states that God created, named, and positioned all of the stars of the universe in their place in a very specific way-a way that tells us the greatest story ever to be told. In Luke 21:25 Jesus says, "There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars." Signs are meant to point us towards something: Jesus. Story in the Stars takes an in-depth look at the Bible and all the signs God mapped out through constellations, planets, and even the way the Earth is tilted. We are uniquely designed by God, and He loves us so much that He ensured a way for all inhabitants of the earth, through all of time, to see the messages of salvation and redemption that He painted in the stars.
