  Listening is not a passive act; it involves active engagement. It’s a skill that can be developed and honed over time, and when mastered, it transforms how we connect with others. In this book, we will explore the nuances of listening, from the different types—such as active, empathetic, and critical listening—to the challenges that prevent us from truly hearing what others are saying. We’ll delve into the importance of body language, nonverbal cues, and how our responses shape the flow of conversation. You will also learn how to overcome the common barriers that hinder effective listening, whether they’re external distractions or internal biases. 
    
  This book isn’t just for those seeking to improve their communication skills for professional success, though it certainly will help in the workplace. It’s for anyone who wants to enrich their relationships, understand others on a deeper level, and foster empathy and connection in their personal lives. Whether you’re engaging in a conversation with a friend, a colleague, or a loved one, the ability to listen well will deepen your interactions and create a more supportive, open environment for those around you.

  The Dogs of Mariupol - Russia's...

  When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, Kateryna hung up her dresses, Oksana and Stanislav put down their lawyers' briefs and Oksen slammed shut his philosophy textbooks. Alongside thousands of their fellow citizens, they strapped on armour, picked up weapons and chose to risk their lives for the freedom and independence of their homeland. Many would never return.
  Journalist Tom Mutch woke up in Kyiv on 24 February to a world changed for ever. Making a fateful choice to stay and cover the invasion, he witnessed the forging of an 'iron generation' of young Ukrainians. With first-hand reporting from all the major battlegrounds and front lines, The Dogs of Mariupol recounts the war's notorious encounters, such as the Battle of Kyiv and the Siege of Mariupol, but also uncovers untold stories, like the 1st Tank Brigade's desperate defence of Chernihiv and the civilian guerrilla army fighting overwhelming odds in Sumy.
  This is not a triumphalist account of Ukraine's fight, however. It painstakingly documents the immense human catastrophe wrought on Ukrainian society and the divisions between those who fought and those who fled. It also delves deeper into events to answer important historical questions: could the Russian plan to capture Kyiv have succeeded? Did Ukraine make a fatal error by committing for so long to the defence of Bakhmut? And with more western support, could Ukraine have won this terrible war outright?

  The Shocking Truth about...

  Workplace harassment is an issue that extends far beyond isolated incidents—it is a systemic problem that affects employees across industries and at all levels of employment. From overt discrimination and verbal abuse to more insidious forms of intimidation and exclusion, workplace harassment can take many shapes. Yet, despite growing awareness, countless cases go unreported, leaving victims to suffer in silence while companies turn a blind eye. The consequences of this widespread problem are severe, impacting not only individuals but entire organizations.  
    
  At its core, workplace harassment is about power and control. It is often perpetuated by those in positions of authority or influence, creating a culture where victims fear retaliation if they speak up. In some cases, even when complaints are filed, they are dismissed or mishandled by employers who prioritize their company’s reputation over the well-being of their employees. This failure to address harassment fosters a toxic work environment, leading to decreased productivity, high turnover rates, and lasting emotional damage for those affected.  
    
  While laws and regulations exist to protect workers from harassment, enforcement remains inconsistent. Many employees are unaware of their rights, and even those who do understand them may hesitate to take legal action due to the stigma attached to being labeled a troublemaker. Human resources departments, which are meant to serve as a safeguard against workplace misconduct, often struggle to balance their duty to employees with their loyalty to the company. As a result, the burden of addressing workplace harassment frequently falls on the victims themselves, leaving them with difficult choices that can impact their careers and mental health.
