"Practical leadership for difficult times, from a crisis management expert who has led response teams through the 9/11 Pentagon attack, NFL on-field medical emergencies, and the war in Ukraine. Dr. Thom Mayer knows first-hand that true leadership stems from our actions, not our positions, especially in times of crisis. Drawing on his experiences heading the 9/11 Pentagon rescue efforts, dealing with on-field emergencies in the NFL (he was at Damar Hamlin's bedside after his injury), training mobile response medical teams in Ukraine, and more, Mayer covers such topics as: Why trust is vital for innovation; The critical role of failure in devising new ways of leading; How questions fuel innovative action; Why every leader should have the title Chief Story Teller; The importance of distinguishing between data, knowledge, and wisdom. Each chapter begins with a provocative and seemingly contradictory statement, like the book's title, and includes stories, historical examples, and literary lessons selected to guide pragmatic and practical solutions. Leadership is worthless because it is something you say, a noun. But leading is priceless because it is a verb-it is the things we do that make a difference. From Pentagon generals to corporate CEOs to football players on the field to parents driving their kids to school, Mayer shows how leaders ensure that their actions will help others to succeed"--
These days buyers will only engage with salespeople who provide value as a consultative partner. This means those sellers must up their game in both knowledge and skill. That places the challenge squarely on the back of sales enablement and sales training professionals. While this has always been a unique challenge in the world, it is especially urgent now. There was a time when it was believed that salespeople were actually born and could not be trained. Now we all know better, but we struggle to build that perfect program. This book offers an approach to sales training that should address that challenge. The training and enablement need of sales teams has evolved over the years, but the pandemic accelerated the change required. This book will provide a guide for those of you in the sales enablement and sales training world to help you develop effective sales training and sales enablement programs. Salespeople are a unique breed with an extremely tough job, and effective programs can enable their success and return business results for the company. This book will make you the hero of that story.
One of the biggest enemies of our general wellbeing is stress; and one of the biggest causes of stress is concern about money. This book provides a simple and practical guide to planning your daily and long-term finances by understanding your objectives and motivations. In doing so, it offers respite from the anxiety and stress caused by money problems. The author, an experienced financial adviser, argues that the key to financial wellbeing is to "know thyself" in order to allow decisions to be made, and to ensure those decisions are the rights ones for you. This is underpinned by having control of your daily finances, the ability to cope with a financial shock, to be able to have options in life, to have identifiable goals and a clear path to achieve them, and to ensure clarity and security for those we leave behind.
In Anbetracht der aktuellen Krisensituation besitzt die Risikoberichterstattung von Unternehmen weiterhin eine hohe Relevanz. Während bisherige Studien auf extern publizierte Risikoinformationen fokussieren, zeichnet die vorliegende Forschungsarbeit erstmals ein umfassendes Bild über die inhaltliche und prozessuale Ausgestaltung des internen Risiko-Reportings. Im Rahmen einer Feldstudie führte die Autorin dazu Interviews mit Risikomanagern aus 34 bedeutsamen Unternehmen der deutschen Wirtschaft, wodurch neben zumeist vertraulichen Daten auch interne Risikoberichte erhoben werden konnten. Die Ergebnisse der Studie zeigen, dass der Risikomanager eine zentrale Einflussgröße der Berichtsqualität darstellt und dadurch eine besondere Bedeutung im internen Risiko-Reporting-Prozess besitzt. Durch die Wahrnehmung verschiedener Rollen obliegen dem Risikomanager dabei zahlreiche Tätigkeiten, welche unterschiedliche Kompetenzen erfordern. Zudem werden aufgrund einer Vielzahl an Schnittstellen zu Unternehmensakteuren diverse Erwartungen an den Risikomanager gestellt, sodass sich ein umfassendes, komplexes und zum Teil heterogenes Anforderungsprofil ergibt. In Ableitung aus den Ergebnissen der Untersuchung zeichnet die Autorin ein Rollen-, Tätigkeits- und Kompetenzprofil des Risikomanagers sowie seine Einflussmöglichkeiten auf die Informationsqualität in der internen Risikoberichterstattung.

"Once hidden behind the veils of entrepreneurship, it is now clear that platforms are reshaping the world of work, and Amazon has been a forerunner in setting the trend. This book examines two key and contrasting Amazon platforms that differ in how they organize workers: its e-commerce platform and digital labor platform (Mechanical Turk). With access to the people who are working at the heart of these platforms, it explores how different working conditions alienate workers, and how, despite these conditions, workers organize within their political-economic contexts to express their agency in traditional and alternative ways. Written for social scientists studying and researching the platform economy, this is a timely and important analysis of work and workers on the (digital) shop floor. --
"The Canary Code is a groundbreaking framework for intersectional inclusion and belonging at work that embraces human cognitive, emotional, and neurobiological differences-neurodiversity. Despite their skills and work ethics, members of autistic, ADHD, Tourette Syndrome, learning differences, and related communities face barriers to hiring and advancement. In the U.S., 30-40% of neurodivergent people and 85% of autistic college graduates struggle with unemployment. Yet, like canaries in the coal mine, they are impacted by issues that ultimately harm everyone. Lack of flexibility, transparency, and psychological safety exclude neurodivergent, disabled, and multiply marginalized talent-and leave most employees stressed and disengaged. This book helps CEOs, human resources and DEI leaders, managers, and consultants design neuroinclusive and thriving workplaces where everyone can do their best work. It draws on examples of pioneering organizations, human stories, academic research, and the author's decades of experience. Organizational psychologist and member of the autistic community, Ludmila N. Praslova, PhD., offers a comprehensive framework for building neuroinclusive workplaces.

This unique book combines the lived autism experience with cutting-edge organizational thinking, academic rigor, and passionate, artful writing. Readers will experience organizational life through the eyes of neurodivergent individuals and find many tools for human-centric talent management and the inclusive future of work"--
