  Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are at the forefront of technological innovation, transforming nearly every sector and redefining how we live, work, and interact. These technologies, once confined to science fiction, now power tools and systems that many people use daily—from personalized recommendations on streaming platforms to virtual assistants and advanced data analysis in business and healthcare. 
  The rise of generative AI, such as large language models and image synthesis tools, marks a new era in machine intelligence. These systems can create human-like text, generate realistic images, compose music, and even design products. They're not just mimicking human creativity—they're expanding it, offering new ways for people to ideate and innovate across disciplines. Businesses are leveraging generative AI to automate content creation, improve customer service, and enhance productivity. While the creative potential is staggering, it also brings up questions about authorship, originality, and the future of creative professions. 
  AI is also becoming deeply embedded in everyday applications. Smartphones use AI to improve photos, optimize battery life, and enable voice recognition. In healthcare, AI helps doctors diagnose diseases with higher accuracy by analyzing medical images and patient data. Financial institutions use it to detect fraud and make investment decisions. Meanwhile, retailers personalize shopping experiences by analyzing customer behavior. In essence, AI is becoming the silent partner in many human decisions, making systems smarter, faster, and more adaptive.

  Interviewology - The New Science...

  “A must-read for seasoned and new managers alike.” —Johnny C. Taylor Jr., SHRM-SCP, CEO of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) 
  A groundbreaking guide to mastering the job interview, offering proven advice and techniques to discover your unique interview style that is key to interviewing better—for those on either side of the table. 
  Conventional interviewing advice doesn’t work. That’s what Anna Papalia learned through years of experience as an HR professional, consultant for Fortune 500 companies, and teacher at the Fox School of Business. None of the existing tools work for one simple reason: they don’t get to the heart of what actually makes a great interview—self-awareness. At its core, an interview is a set of questions about you. If you don’t know yourself, you won’t do well. 
  Determined to make the process better, more inclusive, and less obscure, Anna spent years researching how people interview and uncovered a new science to interviewing, rooted in the finding that there are four main styles people exhibit in an interview: you can be a Charmer, a Challenger, an Examiner, or a Harmonizer. Your style influences how you view and approach interviews, and ultimately how you perform in them. In Interviewology, Anna teaches you how to identify your individual style (and that of who you are interviewing with) and offers pragmatic tips for using this knowledge to nail your next interview. 
  Packed with wisdom, Interviewology offers clarity and a dynamic, scientifically validated approach that challenges everything you thought you knew about interviewing, providing unique insight into the process, debunking some of the most common myths, and explaining how you can perform better, whether you’re applying for the job or looking for the right candidate. 
  Going beyond generic advice that isn’t useful in the real world—such as memorizing rote answers or strict guidelines—Interviewology is a revolutionary approach that focuses on self-awareness—and how to develop it—to help everyone master their own unique interview style. It’s about the power of knowing yourself and how that insight can lead to a more successful career and life.

  Amid growing international concerns about income inequality, labor abuses, racial injustice, and disinformation online, Conscience Incorporated examines the gaps in current corporate social responsibility measures and what more needs be done to address these challenges. The rise of new technologies such as smartphones and social media have made it easier than ever to document and spread awareness of corporate actions. Despite these developments, large corporations often fail to meaningfully address the human rights abuses linked to their business models and practices.  
   
    
   
  Drawing from research into the history of business ethics, Michael Posner provides a blueprint for global business leaders to navigate human rights challenges and adopt sustainable corporate practices. He highlights the need for increased protections for outsourced workers in faraway nations, greater attention to harmful online content, and prioritization of human rights by investors. 
   
   
   
  Posner proposes a series of concrete reforms and argues compellingly for why businesses need to devote greater time and resources to protecting basic human rights. Conscience Incorporated is a powerful challenge to the status quo and advocates for a fundamental shift in the principles that govern global businesses.
