Corporate And Family Governance

Christos A. Christou

Corporate Governance regulates not only interactions between shareholders, management and oversight bodies such as boards of directors, but also ensures appropriate checks and balances exist that can preserve and enhance the viability of any business, including any family-owned business. Family Governance regulates the interactions between a family-owned business and the family owning the business, as well as between the members of the owning family. When both are present and functioning well, the prospects of longevity for the family business and the preservation of the ownership of the business in the family are both enhanced. When one or both disciplines are absent or not functioning well, these prospects are undermined. So, Corporate and Family Governance are not sufficient but they are necessary conditions for the continued viability of a family-owned business and the continued family ownership of the business across multiple generations.

Backup after the Beat - YOU ARE...

Steve Eastin

Backup after the Beat should be compulsory reading for first responders, whether serving or retired, professional or civilian, as well as those closest to them.
Author Steve Eastin is a retired cop with eighteen years’ service under his belt. After retirement and looking forward to enjoying life with his family, he found his time on the beat wasn’t quite done. Without realizing it, this tough professional found himself firmly in the grip of the terrifying and potentially lethal Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
You’d better believe PTSD is real: Steve challenges the deniers and haters, showing how first responders are our front line against chaos. Daily confronted by the unbelievable, the inconceivable, the unspeakable―they risk their lives to protect us in the face of the human talent for evil. Physically tough, resilient, and skilled at staying alive, how do these extraordinary human beings mentally cope when responding to emergency calls with no idea what fresh hell awaits them or their officers once on scene? For them, the horrors can’t be unseen and, if untreated, the psychological effects of PTSD can resonate for years to come, with some resorting to suicide.
Steve is now determined to help prevent other first responders and their families suffering from the malign effects of PTSD. Based on his own experiences, those of colleagues, and family members, he reveals the unacknowledged truth about first responder roles, while laying bare the potential psychological cost of being on the beat―even years into retirement. This book is a must-read for retired, serving, and future first responders, and anyone interested in the effects of PTSD.

Hypnosis for Self Confidence -...

Empowered Living

The advantages of hypnosis therapy are widespread. A lot of individuals report positive changes with hypnosis and it's recognized as a valid type of holistic alternative medicine.
Hypnosis is a popular technique utilized for weight loss, overcoming addiction, healing, achieving goals, relaxation and stress relief. It's utilized to get rid of undesired behaviors and beliefs and to manifest new desires and achieve goals in life.
If you wish to influence your subconscious mind to accept new programming for positive alterations hypnosis is an effective technique for doing that.
Among the chief advantages of hypnosis is that when you in a hypnotic state brain wave frequencies decelerate. You center or focus your awareness and you're actually much more aware than usual. A state of centered awareness almost feels as though you're more of an observer of thought and images rather than a part of them. This allows you to bypass the "gatekeepers" at the entrance to the subconscious and superconscious so you are able to access these levels of consciousness directly, and the brain is much more receptive to suggestion.
The unconscious, or subconscious may then be reprogrammed so it lets go of old patterns, beliefs and feelings that no longer serve you. They may be replaced with suggestions that are favorable and affirming. The superconscious mind may open you into fresh insights and originative ideas.
Put this audio on each night before you go to bed and listen to it right before you fall asleep. If you have time also listen to it first thing upon waking. Do this for at least 21 days consistently so that positive change can take affect in your life.
