Bird Flu (Everything You Need to Know) - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: A bird flu pandemic is inevitable—so we are told. First identified in China, this apparently merciless virus, which originated in chickens, has the potential to mutate and kill thousands, even millions of people. John Farndon offers a compact, one-stop read that tells it straight. The public doesn’t want to spend months doing research, and Bird Flu provides readers with all the necessary information. This is something that can’t be pushed aside and ignored––people really do need to know if there is anything to fear, and if so, what can they do about it?
Devotions to Leave You Smiling - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: The pastor preached a very short sermon one Sunday morning. He explained: “My dog got into my office and chewed up some of my notes." At the close of the service, a visitor made this request: “If your dog ever has puppies, please let my pastor have one of them!” God intends for us to smile. Far more muscles are used when we frown than when we smile. So why overwork facial muscles? Laughter is as much a part of the heart of God as are tears. This book is a collection of devotions built around some of the lighter fare of life. Each devotion presented here begins with a smile-a brief, humorous reflection. Each includes a Scripture reference. And each concludes with a “sendoff”-a prayer, challenge, or thought for the day. Highlighted with original illustrations by “Close to Home” cartoonist John McPherson.
Me Tanner, You Jane (Evan Tanner Suspense Thrillers) - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: It's a jungle out there. Literally. At least for Evan Tanner, eternally sleepless sometime superspy, who finds himself in Africa on the trail of the AWOL ruler of tiny Modonoland. It seems the petty despot's gone missing, and he's taken the state treasury along with him. No stranger to impossible missions and international peril, Tanner's been in over his head before. This time, however, he's in imminent danger of being buried alive. And it all has to do with the CIA, white supremacists, moderate revolutionaries . . . and a blond jungle bombshell named (no joke!) Sheena. Tanner's always been a sucker for a pretty face and a curvaceous body, especially one that's wrapped in leopard skin. But this red hot renegade daughter of a local missionary is a maneater. Which means this time Tanner's goose is well and truly cooked.
The Transplanted Executive: Why You Need to Understand How Workers in Other Countries See the World Differently - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: With the passage of NAFTA and GATT, the steady integration of the European Community, and the emergence of promising new markets in Eastern Europe and the Pacific Rim, businesses around the world are globalizing their operations with unprecedented speed. But as executives working in foreign countries have discovered, organizational cultures can differ dramatically from country to country, and management practices effective back home can fail miserably abroad. The Transplanted Executive provides a comprehensive resource for managers of any nationality striving to understand the diversity of workplace values and traditions--and how they can be used to maximize employee efficiency, morale, and the bottom line. Offering sensible solutions to everyday problems, this informative volume shows how employees with different cultural, religious, and ethnic backgrounds respond to specific managerial techniques. The authors demonstrate, for example, why effective incentive systems in Japan might decrease productivity in United States, and why successful efforts to create team-based cooperation in Russia could alienate rather than motivate workers in England. Each chapter focuses on a different management problem--effective communication, motivation of workers, turning groups into teams, leadership skills, and quality management production--and following each chapter are quick reference charts that neatly summarize the text. The authors also include a table which provides cultural profiles of nearly 50 countries from major business centers around the world. Now more than ever, multinational managers need to be in touch with the range of cultural issues that can affect their overseas operations. With The Transplanted Executive in hand, managers the world over will have a user-friendly guide to understanding and mastering the subject.

Your Modeling Career: You Don't Have to Be a Superstar to Succeed - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Shoot for the moon, and even if youmiss, you’ll land among the stars.” That was the quote that fell out of mycoworker’s fortune cookie.“Here, you take it. You need it more than I do,” my friend said as hehanded me the tiny piece of paper. I taped it on the first page of my newday planner and finished writing out a list of all the agencies I plannedto visit during my first week in New York. That quote stayed with methroughout my journey.I’m proud of this book for many reasons, but mostly because it hasallowed me the opportunity to help others gain insight into the mod-eling business. I have been given a wonderful opportunity to helppotential models make educated decisions concerning the direction oftheir modeling careers. It has been a privilege to hear from readers fromall over the world and hear their stories as well as offer them encour-agement.XMy modeling journey began with aglance through the local Sunday news-paper in my hometown of Beckley,West Virginia. For some reason, my eyeslocked on a small ad that read:Modeling Contest. Under Size 12 NeedNot Apply. Big Beauties and LittleWomen of New York needs new faces intheir full-figure division. Twelve finalistswill be selected and flown to New YorkCity to compete for cash, prizes andmodeling contracts.“I could do that,” I thought tomyself. After all, I had the required fullfigure. Other people would tell me,however, that it was a silly idea. At agetwenty-three, I still lived in a smalltown in southern West Virginia where I grew up. I had a fine job with alocal coal company. For some reason, though, I could not get that littlead out of my mind.
The Body in Action: You Can Keep Your Joints Young - PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: The other day I was driving at dawn along one of Sydney’s forest-fringed outer highways. It was one of those leafy dappled mornings ofhigh summer with the occasional shaft of sunlight bursting throughthe greenery and making explosions of light wherever it landed. In themiddle, cleaving its way through the foliage, ran my highway; a duskyblue thread of bitumen blending and becoming as one with thewaking forest. As I rounded a corner I came upon a cyclist meander-ing at ease across the nearside lane of the roadway. I hung back tolook because his actions had a compelling quality of beauty to them;a languid mark of excellence that made me want to stay and watchrather than speed on past. I kept my distance, watching transfixed ashe acted out in front of me a perfect virtuoso performance of coordi-nated movement.
Building Organizational Memories: Will You Know What You Knew? (Premier Reference Source) - Original PDF
نویسندگان: خلاصه: Much has been written about how organizations create and exchange knowledge to achieve a competitiveadvantage. To date most researchers have concentrated on the present and how organizational leadersmay use knowledge to create value today. This book builds on the many great works in the knowledgemanagement domain; however, it is unique in that the focus will be on what leaders should be doingnow (or soon) to ensure the next generation of organizational leaders know what they knew.The following is a real-world example of why this area of research is important; there are many morereasons articulated in the pages ahead. During an interview on CBS News on September 11, 2006, NewYork Fire Department Deputy Fire Chief John Norman described the unfathomable loss of life of theDepartment’s Special Operations Command five years earlier. On that tragic day, September 11, 2001,Special Operations Command lost 95 men – totaling 1600 years of experience. This is simply unimagi-nable when one considers this specialized unit pioneered techniques for urban rescue and terrorist at-tacks. Surely, it would be impossible to reconstitute the unique and vital knowledge of these brave men.Au contraire, Norman’s team proved that they had plans in place to quickly rebuild their team and onceagain become the best in world. Five years later the knowledge loss was virtually unnoticeable as theteam responded to 50 calls (Pitts, 2006).This story is not meant to demean the heartbreaking loss of very brave men, but rather it is to com-memorate the outstanding leadership, courage, and culture of a team that would not give up. Fortunately,most organizations do not have to suffer the tragic loss that Norman described, but perhaps we can learnfrom their tragedy. Virtually all organizations must deal with organizational memory loss to varyingdegrees. Could your organization rebuild from such devastation?Regrettably, organizational memory loss is not new, consider:One horrible day 1,600 years ago, the wisdom of many centuries went up in flames. The great libraryin Alexandria burned down, a catastrophe at the time and a symbol for all ages of the vulnerability ofhuman knowledge. The tragedy forced scholars to grope to reconstruct a grand literature and sciencethat once lay neatly cataloged in scrolls. (E. Linden, 1991)The message is clear; organizations must develop a strategy to maintain the intellectual capital thatmakes them unique. To be sure, most organizations cannot capture all of their tacit and explicit knowl-edge; however, that is not necessary and perhaps not even desirable. Rather organizational leaders mustput in place the tools and techniques to ensure that mission critical knowledge is maintained for thenext generationآیا کتاب مورد نظر هنوز بر روی سایت قرار نگرفته است؟ جای نگرانی نیست! کافی است بر روی گزینه سفارش کتاب کلیک کرده و درخواست خود را ثبت کنید. در کمتر از چند ساعت کتاب شما را آماده خواهیم کرد.
