This new edition has been fully updated to address all these issues.Retired neurologist and hugely popular finance author William Bernstein applies his trademark informal writing style to help you become more self-sufficient and make better-informed investment decisions. He walks you through the "four pillars" of investing:The Theory of Investing: "Do not expect high returns without risks."The History of Investing: "About once every generation, the markets go barking mad. If you are unprepared, you are sure to fail."The Psychology of Investing: "Your greatest investment enemy is the face staring back at you in the window."The Business of Investing: "The investment industry wants to make you poor and stupid. Don't let them."You'll learn how to build a solid foundation for investing by focusing on these four essential lessons, each of which builds upon the other. The Four Pillars of Investing includes practical investing advice based on fascinating history lessons from the market, exercises to determine risk tolerance as an investor, and easy-to-understand explanations of risk and reward in the capital markets.This unmatched resource provides the tools you need to construct a high-performance portfolio-without the help of a financial adviser.

    Build a business with relationships at the center, and you will seize the competitive edge in today's volatile job/or talent marketPeople are quitting their jobs in droves, then coming back. Employees are demanding flexibility, while some leaders insist they return to the physical office. Remote work is incredibly convenient but complicated. The job market is always in flux, but one thing is for sure: the last few years have presented the greatest challenges the business world has ever faced. Don't freak out. If you accept the new reality and harness the incredible power of healthy, authentic relationships, you can seize the competitive edge in this new world of work.In The Retention Revolution, Keswin makes the case for completely rethinking the nature of work, workers, and workplaces. Rather than view a workforce as a talent pool filled with loyal company employees, you should look at it as a constantly flowing river of dynamic, robust human beings, where people come and go-and often come back. Keswin walks you through this reframing process and replaces seven old ideas that don't serve anyone anymore with powerful new concepts that drive organizational success, including:Old: Stability leads to growth New: Dynamic change is what powers people and organizationsOld: People are only working when you can see them New: Autonomy and flexibility make work workOld: The more technology, the better New: Developing your tech intelligence is paramountOld: Professional development should be job-related New: Companies benefit from well-adjusted employees; personal development is professional developmentThis game-changing playbook is filled with accessible and actionable case studies and research that will prove how transforming these old ideas into new beginnings is good for people, great for business, and just might change the world.With The Retention Revolution, you have everything you need to form deep connections with employees (and even potential employees), starting with the organization's very first contact with the person and extending to throughout the person's entire career.

    "This book, co-authored by long time practitioners, brilliantly demonstrates that an inequitable, illiberal education system can be changed to become inclusive and equitable. With one part examining the system over the decades since the Warnock report, and a second part presenting policy and practice for a fairer system with an end to a SEND industry, it presents a state-maintained education system desperately in need of radical reform that can be renewed to serve all children and young people."Professor Sally Tomlinson, Emeritus Professor Goldsmiths at the University of London, UK, Honorary Fellow at the Department of Education, University of Oxford, UK"This book is a wake-up call to us all to the 'liberation' of our current system... it invit[es] active engagement in change through review and reflection...

Its stock had fallen to under $11 per share, and it had to borrow money to pay a massive government fine. Six months later, Kusserow became its CEO. Under his leadership, the company dramatically improved operations, increased its stock value to as high as $325 per share, and took its place among the top home care and hospice businesses in the country.In this inspiring in-depth case study, Kusserow explains how he achieved the seemingly impossible, providing invaluable lessons you can use to breathe new life into your organization. Unlocking unrealized human potential has the highest return of any and all strategic investments. The keys, Kusserow explains, are a recommitment to the core mission of caring and the implementation of a Golden Rule managerial model that emphasizes treating employees well and listening to their performance improvement advice. These twin governing principles were essential to delivering great outcomes, retaining and attracting staff, as well as turbocharging organizational performance and profitability. Amedisys reimagined and redefined the home care industry, and its people had powered its transformation.Kusserow reveals concrete leadership and life lessons that were responsible for the four phases of Amedisys's evolution-turnaround, stability, growth, and transformation-into the nation's leading and most innovative home care company. It's a proven framework for any business turnaround.
