  Wine Wars II - The Global Battle...

  Globalization has pushed back the borders of the wine world, creating a complex, interconnected market where Old World and New World wines and producers compete head to head. Writing with wit and verve, Mike Veseth (a.k.a. the Wine Economist) tells the compelling story of the war between the market forces that are redrawing the world wine map and the terroirists who resist them. 
   
   
   
  Wine Wars II begins by exploring wine globalization, where listeners follow "Missionaries, Migrants, and Market Reforms" to faraway New Zealand and learn how to unlock the secrets of their local retail "Wine Wall" by mastering the "DaVino Code." Globalization brings a world of wine to our doorsteps. Commodification helps us make sense of the resulting embarrassment of riches, but at a cost. Listeners must decide if they are Martians or Wagnerians, consider why "They Always Buy the Ten Cent Wine," and then probe the puzzle of "Outlaws, Prisoners, and the Great Escape." 
   
   
   
  Who stands in the way of the global wine market's assault on wine's very soul? Resistance is not futile, but that doesn't mean the future of wine is secure. A final section explores "Wine's Triple Crisis," environmental crisis, plus economic crisis, plus identity crisis. Taken together these crises pose the most serious threat to wine as we know and love it.

  “An essential guide for anyone committed to inspiring and achieving greatness with authenticity.” —Dr. Jennifer Brown, CEO of NorthStar Consulting   In Lead Boldly, peak performance coach Hugh Blane shares his three guiding principles for converting human potential into inspired performance. He does this by providing a detailed road map for transforming a leader’s results at work and home in unprecedented ways.  Lead Boldly makes the compelling case that there are vast levels of untapped potential in every corner and cubicle of organizations. Because of unparalleled stress, burnout, disengagement, and continual distraction, employers are sitting on a treasure trove of potential but have, until Lead Boldly, lacked the keys to developing the mindset and skill set to unlock it.   Every successful leader can identify the one person in their life who coached them to achieve greatness, a level of greatness they thought impossible. Lead Boldly provides readers with a step-by-step process to become the person known for coaching others to greatness. The process Hugh Blane presents will challenge you, encourage you, and, at times, mystify you, but ultimately it will catapult you to achieve unparalleled accomplishments.   “Hugh’s understanding of peak performance is a force to be reckoned with in the field of professional development.” —Mike Rice, CEO (Retired) of BioLife Solutions

  Not to Scale - How the Small...

  From research to practical application, Not To Scale explores an influential theory in an accessible way.  The dictionary defines "scale" as a range of numbers, used as a system to measure or compare things. We use this concept in every aspect of our lives-it is essential to innovation, helps us weigh options, and shapes our understanding of the impact of our actions.  In Not to Scale, Jamer Hunt investigates the complications of scale in the digital age, highlighting an interesting paradox: We now have a world of information at our fingertips, yet ironically the more informed we have become, the more overwhelmed we feel. The global effects of our daily choices (Paper or plastic? Own or lease? Shop local or buy online?) remain difficult for us to comprehend, and solutions to large-scale national and international issues feel inconceivable.   Hunt explains how these challenges are intimately tied to a new logic of scale and provides readers with survival skills for the twenty-first century. By taking massive problems and shrinking them down to size, we can use scale to effect positive change and adapt to the modern era. Connecting our smallest decisions to the grand scheme of things, Not to Scale is a fascinating and empowering guide to comprehending and navigating the high stakes often obscured from our view.
