¿Hablamos?: Conversaciones necesarias para que las relaciones y los equipos funcionen
by Ferran Ramón-Cortes Alex Galofré¿Cuánto conocemos de los demás? ¿Cuánto explicamos de nosotros? ¿Por qué decimos que sí cuando queremos decir que no? ¿Por qué personas que tienen habilidades probadas de buena comunicación, en el contexto de una determinada relación de grupo funcionan mal? Todos hablamos de que somos un equipo... pero muy pocos lo son de verdad. ¿Hablamos?, con la vista puesta alcanzar un más alto rendimiento, explica el camino que siguen los equipos, los grupos, las familias o las parejas en su viaje hacia la complicidad. Y en su conquista de la plena confianza. Porque las empresas que funcionan, los grupos que funcionan, las familias que funcionan o las parejas que funcionan se basan siempre en relaciones personales que funcionan.
Hablan los chinos. Historias reales para entender a la futura potencia del mundo: Historias Reales Para Entender A La Futura Potencia Del Mundo
by Ana FuentesUna obra coral resultado de una magnífica labor periodística que desentraña los misterios de un país desconocido aún hoy para Occidente. Un disidente torturado por la policía, un joven millonario nacionalista, un emigrante que cruza el país en busca de trabajo, un viejo maestro de kung-fu que ha dejado de entrenar por la contaminación, una campesina que se prostituye para pagar la educación de su hijo... ¿Quiénes son los chinos? La periodista Ana Fuentes, que ha sido corresponsal de la Cadena SER en Pekín, recoge en Hablan los chinos el testimonio en primera persona de ciudadanos que han decidido romper su silencio y hablar de la realidad de su país -su relación con la familia, con el poder, con el resto del mundo-. Historias reales de individuos de distinto nivel cultural y poder adquisitivo que impactan por lo insólito, que emocionan y que ponen fin a muchos clichés. Una obra coral resultado de una magnífica labor periodística que desentraña los misterios de un país desconocido aún hoy para Occidente. China ha crecido vertiginosamente en los últimos años hasta convertirse en la segunda economía mundial. En 2008 fue sede de los Juegos Olímpicos, su puesta de largo ante la comunidad internacional entre censura, represión de los activistas y unos niveles de corrupción desorbitados. Una China tan nueva como milenaria que trata de superar los traumas del colonialismo extranjero, las hambrunas del Gran salto hacia delante y las atrocidades de la Revolución Cultural. «Ganarme su confianza no fue fácil: algunos nunca habían dirigido la palabra antes a un extranjero. Tras meses intensos de charlas, paseos y alguna persecución policial acabaron hablándome abiertamente de sus metas y de sus frustraciones. Éste es el resultado». Ana Fuentes
Hablar de todo y no saber de nada: Las tertulias y la nueva política
by Joan LópezEl papel de la tertulia española en el mundo mediático y político: ¿fuente de información o intoxicación mediática? Las tertulias fueron en el pasado un género minoritario creado con la voluntad de ofrecer información complementaria acerca de los temas de actualidad. Sin embargo, el feroz mundo mediático del siglo XXI ha obligado a las tertulias a cambiar de formato hasta convertirlas en un espectáculo que se emite en horas de máxima audiencia. Al conquistar la parrilla televisiva, las tertulias han derivado en puro entretenimiento dónde la opinión y la confrontación ideológica parecen ser los ingredientes del éxito. ¿Quién determina la línea editorial de los programas?¿La tertulia es fuente de información o es intoxicación mediática?¿Existe el tertuliano libre?¿Cómo se llega a ser tertuliano?¿Cómo se preparan las tertulias?¿Qué pasa en las cadenas de televisión pública? En este fascinante ensayo, Joan López analiza el papel de la tertulia en nuestro país mediante una serie de capítulos divulgativos y polémicos que ponen en entredicho su contribución efectiva al debate público ya que parecen regirse más por el sesgo ideológico que marcan sus respectivas cadenas que por una voluntad honesta de análisis de la actualidad política y social.

Hacker Culture and the New Rules of Innovation
by Tim RaynerFifteen years ago, a company was considered innovative if the CEO and board mandated a steady flow of new product ideas through the company’s innovation pipeline. Innovation was a carefully planned process, driven from above and tied to key strategic goals. Nowadays, innovation means entrepreneurship, self-organizing teams, fast ideas and cheap, customer experiments. Innovation is driven by hacking, and the world’s most innovative companies proudly display their hacker credentials. Hacker culture grew up on the margins of the computer industry. It entered the business world in the twenty-first century through agile software development, design thinking and lean startup method, the pillars of the contemporary startup industry. Startup incubators today are filled with hacker entrepreneurs, running fast, cheap experiments to push against the limits of the unknown. As corporations, not-for-profits and government departments pick up on these practices, seeking to replicate the creative energy of the startup industry, hacker culture is changing how we think about leadership, work and innovation. This book is for business leaders, entrepreneurs and academics interested in how digital culture is reformatting our economies and societies. Shifting between a big picture view on how hacker culture is changing the digital economy and a detailed discussion of how to create and lead in-house teams of hacker entrepreneurs, it offers an essential introduction to the new rules of innovation and a practical guide to building the organizations of the future.

The Hacker Ethic and the Spirit of the Information Age: A Radical Approach to the Philosophy of Business
by Pekka HimanenThe Hacker Ethic takes us on a journey through fundamental questions about life in the information age - a trip of constant surprises, after which our time and our lives can be seen from unexpected perspectives. Nearly a century ago, Max Weber's The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism articulated the animating spirit of the industrial age, the Protestant ethic. In the original meaning of the word, hackers are enthusiastic computer programmers who share their work with others; they are not computer criminals. Now Pekka Himanen - together with Linus Torvalds and Manuel Castells - articulates how hackers represent a new opposing ethos for the information age. Underlying hackers' technical creations - such as the Internet and the personal computer, which have become symbols of our time - are the hacker values that produced them. These values promote passionate and freely rhythmed work; the belief that individuals can create great things by joining forces in imaginative ways; and the need to maintain our existing ethical ideals, such as privacy and equality, in our new increasingly technologized society.

Hacking Design
by Avinash RajagopalWhat if you could press a button and have a machine build you any product you wanted? What if we all had the means to modify our physical environment, to tweak and subvert objects produced for us by designers and manufacturers? A new generation of hardware hackers is making steady progress toward making these hypotheses reality, building vibrant communities in the process. And designers are experimenting with open-source creation and customization, trying to come to terms with the hackers' visions of the future. Hacking Design examines the conflicts and commonalities between hackers and professional designers, and uncovers shared ground on which the two creative communities can work together.DesignFile is the new line of e-books on topics and trends in design published by the Cooper-Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum.

Hacking Growth: How Today's Fastest-Growing Companies Drive Breakout Success
by Morgan Brown Sean EllisThe definitive playbook by the pioneers of Growth Hacking, one of the hottest business methodologies in Silicon Valley and beyond.It seems hard to believe today, but there was a time when Airbnb was the best-kept secret of travel hackers and couch surfers, Pinterest was a niche web site frequented only by bakers and crafters, LinkedIn was an exclusive network for C-suite executives and top-level recruiters, Facebook was MySpace’s sorry step-brother, and Uber was a scrappy upstart that didn’t stand a chance against the Goliath that was New York City Yellow Cabs. So how did these companies grow from these humble beginnings into the powerhouses they are today? Contrary to popular belief, they didn’t explode to massive worldwide popularity simply by building a great product then crossing their fingers and hoping it would catch on. There was a studied, carefully implemented methodology behind these companies’ extraordinary rise. That methodology is called Growth Hacking, and it’s practitioners include not just today’s hottest start-ups, but also companies like IBM, Walmart, and Microsoft as well as the millions of entrepreneurs, marketers, managers and executives who make up the community of GrowthHackers.com.Think of the Growth Hacking methodology as doing for market-share growth what Lean Start-Up did for product development, and Scrum did for productivity. It involves cross-functional teams and rapid-tempo testing and iteration that focuses customers: attaining them, retaining them, engaging them, and motivating them to come back and buy more. An accessible and practical toolkit that teams and companies in all industries can use to increase their customer base and market share, this book walks readers through the process of creating and executing their own custom-made growth hacking strategy. It is a must read for any marketer, entrepreneur, innovator or manger looking to replace wasteful big bets and "spaghetti-on-the-wall" approaches with more consistent, replicable, cost-effective, and data-driven results.

Hacking Heroin
by Sarah Mehta Mitchell WeissAnnie Rittgers had never thought that she would use the words "heroin" and "hack" in the same sentence. Yet here she was, in June, 2017, at Cincinnati, Ohio's Union Hall preparing for a hackathon to address the city's devastating heroin epidemic. Hackathons were one- to two-day events that brought together individuals with different skillsets and expertise to devise technology-enabled solutions for a specific problem. "Hacking Heroin" was the first hackathon that Rittgers, founder of Cincinnati-based consultancy firm 17a, had organized or even attended. "There will continue to be a lot of preventable overdose deaths and wasted potential if the opioid crisis continues unabated," she said. "Bright spots and positive momentum matter when it comes to directing the energy that exists in Cincinnati toward addressing the epidemic." Now though, days before Hacking Heroin, it wasn't clear that Rittgers's intercession would prove to be one of these "bright spots." Not quite 50 people had registered for the free event, and there was no guarantee that they would attend. Sponsorships for the event had been slow to materialize. The eight challenges that she and the team planned to pose to hackathon participants were mostly, but not entirely, settled. Some, but not all, of the key hospital leaders had signed on to participate in the event. Rittgers wondered what she could do to nudge the hackathon towards success. Were these just expected hurdles, and it would all turn out okay? Were they warning signs that warranted remedy? Or were they cues that hackathon skeptics had been right all along-what kind of way was this to address a problem of epidemic proportions anyway?
Hacking Leadership
by Mike MyattHacking Leadership is Mike Myatt's latest leadership book written for leaders at every level. Leadership isn't broken, but how it's currently being practiced certainly is. Everyone has blind spots. The purpose of Hacking Leadership is to equip leaders at every level with an actionable framework to identify blind spots and close leadership gaps. The bulk of the book is based on actionable, topical leadership and management hacks to bridge eleven gaps every business needs to cross in order to create a culture of leadership: leadership, purpose, future, mediocrity, culture, talent, knowledge, innovation, expectation, complexity, and failure. Each chapter: Gives readers specific techniques to identify, understand, and most importantly, implement individual, team and organizational leadership hacks.Addresses blind spots and leverage points most leaders and managers haven't thought about, which left unaddressed, will adversely impact growth, development, and performance. All leaders have blind-spots (gaps), which often go undetected for years or decades, and sadly, even when identified the methods for dealing with them are outdated and ineffective - they need to be hacked.Showcases case studies from the author's consulting practice, serving as a confidant with more than 150 public company CEOs. Some of those corporate clients include: AT&T, Bank of America, Deloitte, EMC, Humana, IBM, JP Morgan Chase, Merrill Lynch, PepsiCo, and other leading global brands. Hacking Leadership offers a fresh perspective that makes it easy for leaders to create a roadmap to identify, refine, develop, and achieve their leadership potential--and to create a more effective business that is financially solvent and professionally desirable.
