  Agile Transformation with an Agile Coaching Mindset: Moving to agile software development. 
  Coaching, Agile Coaching, Transformation, Agile Transformation, Agile Coach, Transformation Coach…. Lots of combinations we hear in everyday life. We are discussing agile transformation here. The approach we follow in this training is “Agile Transformation with an Agile Coaching Mindset”. 
  The dictionary meaning for agile is "able to move quickly and easily". Also, a much talked about attribute of agile is flexibility, ability to respond to changes. 
  How agile can an “agile transformation be"? In our approach, we believe the transformation itself must be agile. It must be an empirical process with an adaptive plan, which is flexible enough to accommodate new learnings accrued during the transformation journey. We keep improving every moment, and the agility evolves as we progress through this journey. 
  We believe in “Agile Transformation with an Agile Coaching Mindset”. 
  Let’s try to list down various phases a typical transformation journey goes through. These steps are negotiable. Based on the organization, team, and environment, these steps may change, be replaced, or be removed. The team may go through phases like… 
  Understand the Organisation, Culture, and Practices; Understand the drivers and set goals; Define Road map; Make Agile visible; Establish Agile training; Align Organisation structure and high-level processes; Start with Agile Practices; Team level transformation; Inspect and Adapt. 
  There is not any specific order for executing many of these steps in our journey. These may even go in parallel or in a different order based on the situation. This book discusses each phase in detail.

  Are you interested in getting a better understanding of the COBOL programming language? 
  Do you seek to know how COBOL interacts with other database management systems? 
  Would you like to expand your knowledge base of database systems? 
  COBOL Database Interaction is a set of techniques that allow us to interact with databases. COBOL Database Interaction is used to retrieve, store, and modify specific records in a database table. It is done by modifying row values. This feature of COBOL allows us to perform everyday tasks such as deleting or updating records in a database table while restoring the original state of the data after the updated records have been deleted. 
  COBOL Database Interaction is used to update records in a database table selectively. It is done by modifying row values without affecting other records in the same table. COBOL Database Interaction allows us to perform tasks such as deleting or updating specific, preexisting records, and also provides us with a mechanism by which we can create new, empty records (without having to create them manually) before saving them to their original data tables. 
  Why is it necessary to understand COBOL database interaction? 
  Understanding the basics of COBOL database interaction is essential in the technology field because COBOL has been used in many industries and is still in use today. In addition, this knowledge can be applied to many software applications and programs.

  Boyd Clewis has defied the odds and gravity. He was born dead, changed schools and homes as a child more times than he can count, became a teenage father and a track star, had more than one close brush with the law, and endured unimaginable family tragedy – all by the time he was barely old enough to drink. 
   
  He found a brief silver lining in the darkness. When it didn’t last, he found himself unable to even get a job in the produce section at Wal Mart. He refused to fail, and in the process, learned how to turn crisis into opportunity – over and over again. As he relentlessly pursued success, his trajectory shot straight upwards: international success, speaking on major stages – and love. Even then, there were days he couldn’t get out of bed. 
   
  Yet again, he reinvented himself, failed, and learned from it. Then, from a place most would consider their peak, he started from scratch to build his own business from the ground up. In the process, he learned what it truly meant to manage success. It can fulfill or destroy you, and it can bring your family closer, or tear it apart. It can isolate you from your community, or raise everyone around you up. 
   
  For better or worse, what you focus on determines your character and the trajectory of your life. Focus on any one thing to the exclusion of others, and everything you built can fall apart. There are two sides to every coin, and every seeming misfortune contains a lesson. There’s an alchemy to turning adversity to wisdom, and curses into blessings, and this is the story of how it worked for Boyd, and how it can work for you.

  Psychiatry - Mental Health and...

  Psychiatry is a branch of medicine dedicated to the study, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders. It plays a crucial role in modern healthcare by addressing conditions that affect cognition, mood, and perception, impacting overall well-being and functionality. Mental health disorders range from common conditions such as anxiety and depression to severe illnesses like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Psychiatrists, as medical professionals specializing in this field, assess and manage these conditions through a combination of psychotherapy, medication, and emerging therapeutic approaches. 
  The historical development of psychiatry has evolved significantly over centuries. Ancient civilizations, including the Greeks and Romans, attributed mental illness to supernatural forces, while Hippocrates introduced the concept of imbalance in bodily humors as a possible cause. During the Middle Ages, mental illness was often misunderstood and associated with demonic possession, leading to inhumane treatments. The emergence of asylums in the 18th and 19th centuries marked a shift toward institutionalized care, though conditions in these facilities were often poor. The 20th century brought advancements in psychopharmacology, neuroscience, and psychological theories, leading to a more scientific and humane approach to mental health care. Today, psychiatry integrates biological, psychological, and social factors to provide comprehensive treatment. 
  Psychiatry differs from other medical disciplines in its focus on both the mind and the brain. Unlike neurology, which primarily deals with structural disorders of the nervous system, psychiatry examines functional disturbances affecting thought, emotion, and behavior. While psychology also explores mental health, psychiatrists, as medical doctors, are uniquely qualified to prescribe medications and provide medical treatments alongside therapy.

  What We Know about Climate...

  This audiobook is an updated edition of a guide to the basic science of climate change, and a call to action. The vast majority of scientists agree that human activity has significantly increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere - most dramatically since the 1970s. Yet global warming skeptics and ill-informed elected officials continue to dismiss this broad scientific consensus. In this updated edition of his authoritative book, MIT atmospheric scientist Kerry Emanuel outlines the basic science of global warming and how the current consensus has emerged. Although it is impossible to predict exactly when the most dramatic effects of global warming will be felt, he argues, we can be confident that we face real dangers. Emanuel warns that global warming will contribute to an increase in the intensity and power of hurricanes and flooding and more rapidly advancing deserts. But just as our actions have created the looming crisis, so too might they avert it. Emanuel calls for urgent action to reduce greenhouse gases and criticizes the media for downplaying the dangers of global warming (and, in search of “balance,” quoting extremists who deny its existence).
  
  
  
  This edition has been updated to include the latest climate data, a discussion of the Earth’s carbon cycle, the warming hiatus of the first decade of this century, the 2017 hurricanes, advanced energy options, the withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement, and more. It offers a new foreword by former US Representative Bob Inglis (R-SC), who now works on climate action through his organization RepublicEN.
  
  
  
  What We Know About Climate Change is wonderfully read by award-winning narrator Karen Chilton. This audiobook was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.
