Editora: Speed To Proficiency Research: S2Pro©

Sinopse

This book presents a research thesis of a large-scale study conducted with over 50 large organizations in 7 countries with 80 business leaders to understand how businesses speed up the proficiency of their employees to meet business challenges. The book describes a start-to-end research study that explored the concept of 'accelerated proficiency' of employees in organizations. The book is organized into five chapters. The book introduces the concept of accelerated proficiency in a business context in light of reviews of four decades of classic studies. The research methodology to identify sources, recruit participants, and the mechanism to collect as well as analyze data have been explained in detail. The book reveals six business practices implemented by organizations across the board that seem to make a major impact in shortening the time to proficiency of employees. Important observations and findings have been discussed as implications in regards to how organizations orchestrated six business practices as an input-output-feedback system to reduce the time-to-proficiency of the workforce. The book briefly explains how these six practices were implemented through a set of twenty-four strategies in various contexts. The concepts and findings discussed in this book contribute significantly to the body of knowledge on accelerated proficiency. In particular, the conceptual model and the framework developed in this study can be implemented across a range of contexts, business sectors, job types, and settings to reduce the time-to-proficiency of the workforce.

Christian Ethics Collection...

Leo Tostoy, Leo Tolstoy, G. K....

What defines faith in the face of doubt? How do we reconcile human suffering with the existence of a loving God? And what is the essence of spiritual truth in a skeptical world? These timeless questions lie at the heart of Christian Ethics Collection: Signature Classics, a profound and thought-provoking audio anthology.
Bringing together three literary giants, this collection is more than a discourse on religion; it is a journey into the human soul, wrestling with the complexities of belief and morality. In A Confession, Leo Tolstoy peels back the layers of his own existential crisis, charting a path from despair to spiritual awakening. With unflinching honesty, the great Russian author challenges conventional dogma and searches for meaning in a world often indifferent to human suffering.
G.K. Chesterton's Orthodoxy offers a spirited defense of Christianity that dazzles with paradox, wit, and logic. Chesterton's playful yet piercing intellect transforms abstract theology into a vibrant exploration of wonder and reason, reframing skepticism as an opportunity for deeper faith.
Finally, C.S. Lewis's The Problem of Pain confronts one of humanity's most difficult questions: why must we suffer? Combining rational analysis with profound empathy, Lewis bridges the gap between intellectual inquiry and emotional solace, offering a perspective on pain that is as challenging as it is comforting. Together, these works invite listeners into a dialogue that spans continents, centuries, and spiritual traditions. Whether you are a seeker, skeptic, or believer, this collection will ignite reflection and inspire a deeper understanding of the ethical and emotional dimensions of faith.
Contents:
1. A Confession by Leo Tolstoy,
2. Orthodoxy by G. K. Chesterton,
3. The Problem of Pain by C. S. Lewis.

Conservatize Me - How I Tried to...

Anônimo

What would happen to a liberal's mind if he subsisted entirely on conservative media and rhetoric? That's what critically acclaimed political humorist, NPR commentator, and McSweeney's contributor John Moe sets out to learn in Conservatize Me. 
We always hear how everyone in America is firmly planted in red or blue. They're permanently conservative or irreversibly liberal. But are we all really that locked into the left or the right?  
John Moe, raised in a family of proud left-wingers and living in deeply liberal Seattle most of his life, sets out to determine if what we believe is based on environment or actual conviction. Moe puts himself on a strict conservative regimen: He resets his radio dials from NPR to Rush Limbaugh, goes head-to-head with some of today's most influential conservative thinkers for a series of ""conversion sessions,"" and through it all tries to maintain positive standing with his lefty wife and young but already liberal kids. 
Conservatize Me will strike a powerful chord with millions of disgruntled Americans ready for a fresh, humorous, and highly entertaining look at our country's political landscape. Will Moe end up getting a Dick Cheney tattoo and swearing loyalty to the Christian Coalition? Will he get a Dennis Kucinich tattoo and dedicate his life to cooking vegan food at protest rallies? Listen and find out.

Why Privacy Matters

Neil Richards

Everywhere we look, companies and governments are spying on us—seeking information about us and everyone we know. Ad networks monitor our web—surfing to send us "more relevant" ads. Databases of human information are assembled for purposes of "training" artificial intelligence programs designed to predict everything from traffic patterns to the location of undocumented migrants. We're even tracking ourselves, using personal electronics like Apple watches, Fitbits, and other gadgets. As Mark Zuckerberg once put it, "the Age of Privacy is over." But Zuckerberg and others who say "privacy is dead" are wrong. In Why Privacy Matters, Neil Richards explains that privacy isn't dead, but rather up for grabs. 
 
 
 
Richards shows how the fight for privacy is a fight for power that will determine what our future will look like, and whether it will remain fair and free. Privacy matters because good privacy rules can promote the essential human values of identity, power, freedom, and trust. If we want to preserve our commitments to these precious yet fragile values, we will need privacy rules. Richards explains why privacy remains so important and offers strategies that can help us protect it from the forces that are working to undermine it. Pithy and forceful, this is a must-listen for anyone interested in a topic that sits at the center of so many current problems.

Vedic Cosmos

HENRY ROMANO

In his dancing position, Shiva is known as Nataraja, the King of dancers, and is one of the most beautiful forms of Lord Shiva. The upper right hand of Shiva, as Nataraja, holds the damaru drum. It shows nothing, but it represents universal development. Meanwhile, the lower right-hand holds a flame of destruction. There are many stories about Shiva's appearance. There is a third eye between Lord Shiva's eyebrows on his forehead as an example. It represents wisdom or inner vision. The other two eyes represent love and justice. Shiva views everything with the proportions of love, justice, and inner knowledge; thus, he is neither too harsh nor lenient. Shiva's three eyes also symbolize the sun, moon, and fire, how the universe is illuminated. Shiva's wife, Parvati, covered Shiva's eyes with her hands one day, and the entire world was enveloped in darkness. That is how Shiva got his third eye. Shiva ordered the third eye to manifest, producing light, heat, and fire.
