Sinopsis

How do you lead virtual teams to high performance?

Globalisation is here to stay - yet no one is really prepared. Many teams tasked with managing globalisation are clearly out of their depth. This is primarily because these teams work virtually and internationally over great distances. The team members no longer sit face to face in their offices, instead they communicate across countries and continents via modern communication media.

Leading a conventional team to top performance is difficult enough, not least because of the inevitable group dynamic involved. When the context becomes virtual, this all too often leads to management failure. This book describes the art of leading virtual teams in an entertaining style including practical tips, helpful suggestions, and numerous illustrative examples that span many industries and countries along the four core challenges of virtual team leadership today.

Gary Thomas is a trainer, consultant and managing director at assist International Human Resources, an internationally operating HR organisation based in Germany. As many of his clients are international organisations and corporations, he has been assisting intercultural and virtual teams and leaders for over 20 years to develop their full potential.

    This book is made for people who love to learn from stories. Each chapter is a small study case of about 2000 words that will tell the story of a company or a person who did thrive in the world of business and marketing to make his mark in the world. Those stories may inspire you and will give you insights into business and marketing concepts that you may learn in business or marketing courses. 
    Also to learn in such a way, by reading stories like this, is very entertaining and pleasurable, you may even read this book just for entertaining purposes and by the end of the book, you did learn a lot of concepts without even noticing it, while enhancing your knowledge about famous brands, companies, and people. 
    If you were learning the English language, a good exercise is to read in English every day and test your reading comprehension. Every chapter is designed to be a small chunk of information that can be digested very easily while learning concepts and words that can be tested by the questionary at the end of every chapter (with the answer by the end of the book). 
    If you were teaching marking this can be a very good source of cases that can be discussed in class with your students, fostering learning and interesting conversations about the topic at hand 
    Some people just like good reading to pass their time, and this book can be it, and because some of the cases are the story of a life time of person or company, some folks will like to read or listen many times over (disponible in Audible too).

    You’re at the point in your life where you’re seriously considering purchasing your first home. You’re sick of paying high rental costs when you know that you’ll never own that property and it simply makes sense to start investing in your own future. 
    Buying a home is an exciting adventure, and whether this is your first home or your second, it’s important that you take your time when evaluating potential properties so that you end up with a property that truly reflects your style, your preferences, your lifestyle and of course, the size of your family. 
    When considering properties, you also need to think outside of just the property itself. While that Cape Code on the corner may look like your dream home, what about the neighborhood?  
    The property costs in certain divisions? Are land taxes reasonable? Are you responsible for water charges? Sewer charges? Recycling costs? Are there any zoning regulations or restrictions that you should be aware of?  
    You should also consider your own personal lifestyle and make sure that the neighborhood is reflective of where you are in your life and what you are comfortable with. 
    In this audiobook you will find out everything you need to get the most out of your real estate transactions.

    The Power of Employee Resource...

    This is the first authoritative book on building employee resource groups (ERGs) to empower underrepresented employees and positively impact diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts within organizations and in society at large. 
     
    In existence for decades, ERGs originated out of affirmative action policies and have evolved into powerful sources of employee activity and engagement. Organizations can leverage ERGs to support business goals, but ERGs can also play a critical role in creating a more inclusive work environment for marginalized individuals. ERGs represent a balance of serving company interests and empowering employees, offering the opportunity for innovative leadership within organizations.

This book is a practical guide on how to manage ERGs effectively and how they inspire a deeper connection between employees and companies while helping us progress toward the DEI goals that we aim to accomplish. Participating in an ERG can help professionals of color and other historically excluded groups advance their careers, thereby increasing diverse representation in leadership. Farzana Nayani provides foundational tools for starting ERGs and outlines the five Ps-purpose, people, processes, planning, and priorities-needed to successfully operate them. 

Unlike other ERG handbooks, this book is people-centric and socially conscious and thoughtfully takes into account the experiences of employees and leaders during current times. It also serves as a deeper call to action around how ERGs can foster authentic change within organizations, creating transformative impact in the surrounding world.
