Sinopse

"Lean Project Execution" presents a systematic approach to project management, integrating lean principles to eliminate waste and maximize efficiency throughout the project lifecycle. It focuses on identifying and eliminating waste, optimizing workflow, and fostering continuous improvement, or Kaizen, much like the Toyota Production System it evolved from. The book argues that lean project execution is a holistic management philosophy that requires a cultural shift towards collaboration and a focus on customer value.

 
The book introduces the five core principles of lean, from identifying value to seeking perfection, and uses real-world examples to illustrate successful implementation in various industries. It emphasizes the importance of streamlining processes to minimize delays and maximize value delivery. By integrating insights from operations management, supply chain management, and organizational behavior, the book offers a holistic perspective on project execution.

 
Structured in three parts, the book first introduces lean thinking, then details the application of lean tools and techniques through the project lifecycle, and finally focuses on sustaining improvements and fostering a culture of continuous improvement. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of lean project execution, from foundational principles to real-world implementation, supporting its concepts with academic research, industry best practices, and practical case studies.

    Your Data Their Wealth - The...

    AI did not appear from nowhere. It was built from human language, human behavior, human culture, human correction, and human life made legible to machines. 
    In Your Data, Their Wealth, James Felton Keith argues that the modern economy has been fundamentally misdescribed. We still talk as though value comes mainly from labor, capital, and innovation in their familiar forms. But the age of AI has exposed something larger: ordinary people are generating economically useful informational value every day, and firms are capturing that value under ownership terms that leave the public with little claim on the upside. 
    This is not just a book about privacy or technology. It is a book about political economy. It asks what happens when human beings become part of the productive base of intelligent systems while remaining structurally excluded from ownership of the gains. It challenges the language of the “user,” traces how law and economics helped normalize this arrangement, and argues for a new framework of claim, bargaining, and stakeholdership in the AI economy. 
    Provocative, timely, and structurally ambitious, this book insists on a simple truth: if the machine is built from us, the future cannot belong only to those who own the machine.

    What if stress wasn’t the enemy, rather a signal that it’s time to do life differently? We live in a world that wears burnout like a badge of honor. We push through, power on, and wonder why we feel depleted at the end of every day. But what if there’s a better way? What if you could lead, live, and thrive—with energy left over? In DE-STRESSED, leadership expert and well-being advocate Jennifer Stanford offers a refreshing take on what it really means to manage stress. Spoiler alert: it’s not about bubble baths and burnout band-aids. It’s about understanding your energy, owning your impact, and leading with intention from the inside out.

With a blend of neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and practical tools, this book helps you shift from reactive to resilient, without sacrificing your sanity or success. IN DE-STRESSED, YOU’LL LEARN HOW TO: Understand the difference between helpful stress and harmful stress (yes, there’s a difference!) Build emotional intelligence and self-awareness that supports real growth Align your energy, values, and actions for more ease and flow Create psychological safety in your team and lead with calm, not chaos Redefine leadership and performance in a way that actually feels good This isn’t your typical self-help book.

    This book is the premium edition of my book "Modern Iran and Ancient Persia"!
    This book is dedicated to the women's movement in Iran.
    If you announce that you are going to Iran, someone will certainly advise you not to go. Ignore them – this is one of the most exciting countries on Earth. There is much to discover, and explore in Iran, not only cultural and historical sites but mountains, deserts and wilderness.
    Above all, this is a place defined by the hospitality and curiosity of Iranians despite a totalitarian regime. According to Lonely Planet's Atlas of Adventure –  "it might well be the friendliest country you ever visit".
    The Persian Empire, which once stretched from Greece to India, has left remnants of an extraordinary rich cultural heritage not only in today's Iran but across the Ancient Empire. From Persepolis, the ancient capital of Persia, to the World Heritage sites in Esfahan and Yazd.
    With its 26 World Heritage Sites, Iran is one of the top 10 countries in the world that represent a masterpiece of human creativity and an exceptional testimony to human civilisation.
    It was 13,000 years ago on the Iranian plateau that Homo sapiens first settled with the advent of agriculture and the first permanent human settlement.
    Zoroastrianism, the world's first monotheistic religion, originated in Persia 4,000 years ago.
    The biblical Magi, also known as the Three Wise Men, were respected Zoroastrian astronomers who came from Persia to "visit" the baby Jesus on the night of his birth in Bethlehem!
    The game of chess as we play it today was invented in Iran about 2,000 years ago.
    The algorithm as we use it today in AI and computer science was invented 1,000 years ago in Iran.
    The stories of "Thousand and One Nights" are taken from the Persian Pahlavi work Hezār Afsān over a thousand years ago.
    With this book we will travel to all those wonderful places of 1001 Nights tales. This is our historical and cultural journey of two weeks to discover authentic places of those stories from our childhood!
    And Iran is a safe destination for tourists, despite a totalitarian regime!

    "AI and the Creative Ego: Can't We All Just Get Along?" takes you on a humorous and insightful journey, addressing why creatives harbor such reservations about artificial intelligence. Through engaging chapters like "The Unexpected Target" and "The Ego Factor," this book explores the psyche of artists, their fear of the unknown, and offers strategies to adapt and embrace this technological evolution. 
    As a filmmaker with over ten years of experience, I was captivated when I first saw Sora by Open AI—a completely computer-generated video that hinted at a revolutionary future for filmmaking. However, I quickly noticed that my excitement was not shared by many in the creative community, who instead felt a deep-seated concern. This inspired me to investigate the reasons behind the apprehension and to understand why creatives are so wary of AI encroaching on their turf. Join me as we explore this fascinating intersection of art and technology.
