Sinossi

“His candid insight . . . transforms the boardroom business as usual attitude and leads your corporation to a higher platform of performance.” —Dr. Norman (Chip) Harbaugh, MD, FAAP, CEO/Chairman of the Board-Emeritus/Founder, Kids Health First 
 
It’s time to look at a typical day at work in corporate America and how bad habits, bad procedures, and bad communication creep into the workplace, undermining productivity. Business experts agree that procedural inefficiency is an all-too-familiar theme in today’s workplace and that eliminating it is one of business managers’ most important responsibilities. 
 
The Corporate Drain provides business leaders with tools to recognize problems and tips for raising efficiency and improving performance, such as:Unclogging the flood of information (emails, paper reports, meetings, and conference calls)Maximizing the potential of each employee using cost-effective incentivesHow training can never be underestimated or over-applied 
 
The globalization of the business world challenges American companies to observe and understand how cultural diversity affects their operations. Author Yoel Yohan, raised in India and educated at a British military school, accredits his successful career at global giant, United Parcel Service, in part to his own cultural diversity. 
 
In The Corporate Drain, Yohan provides powerful examples and tools for profitable growth in today’s international marketplace. 
 
“Addresses the shortfalls in corporate America and uses a common-sense approach in fixing workplace problems. Yoel integrates appropriate humor and not only educates but entertains as well.” —Bill Ribble, former UPS VP 
 
“Yoel has captured the essence of American corporate culture. His recommended solutions can be easily implemented in any business.” —Atif Abdulmalik, CEO, Arcapita Bank

    How did Wall Street become a self-serving and ultimately destructive profit machine that imploded? Wall Street's real job is to be our "financial utility"-good financial plumbers that funnel capital to companies so the economy can expand and create jobs and also provide the means for individual investors to build portfolios that will increase personal wealth.But Wall Street went haywire and became (in Jon Stewart's words) a "bizarro" place that lost touch with most of America. Suzanne McGee provides a penetrating and disturbing look at forces that have transformed Wall Street into a risk-taking behemoth that spun out of control and took the economy and millions of 401(k)s down with it. Primary among these forces was "Goldman Sachs envy." The demons that drove Richard Fuld of Lehman Brothers, Stanley O'Neil of Merrill Lynch, and the rest of Wall Street to ever-greater risk were perverse incentives and the illusion that they could make even more money than Goldman Sachs (where $11.6 billion in profits in 2007 led to an average bonus of $660,000).Firsthand reporting from veteran Wall Street journalist McGee provides riveting storytelling and a narrative that will grab both Wall Street insiders and  people on "Main Street." She is the perfect guide through the labyrinth that is Wall Street, which now reaches from the actual street to Greenwich-based hedge funds, investment banks, venture capitalists in Silicon Valley, the futures pits of Chicago, and sovereign wealth funds.

    Why is stress management needed for women? 
    We believe that more and more women are struggling with stress and are finding it difficult to cope with everyday life. That’s why we’ve created this book. We believe it will provide you with insights and tools to make the changes you want in your life; not just in relation to stress but in many other areas as well. We hope this book will provide you with the tools to develop on a deeper level. 
      
    Statistics show that many women are on sick-leave due to stress. In this book, we have chosen to highlight the differences between the genders as men and women experience and respond to stress quite differently. We also share proven exercises that we as stress therapists use in our daily work with clients. 
      
    You will learn how to: 
    - change your thoughts patterns 
    - get better connected with your feelings and your needs 
    - change unwanted behaviours 
    - improve your quality of life both at work and in your relationships 
      
    We cannot avoid the challenges life throws a us, but we can choose how we handle them. Understanding yourself and creating a better relationship with yourself are vital steps on the way to helping ensure health and well-being.

    A Multidimensional Approach to LeadershipTop-down, one-dimensional leadership models are hopelessly outmoded in today's rapidly changing world, and they waste the leadership ability that is present throughout an organization. In this visionary book, Karen and Henry Kimsey-House provide a model that harnesses the possibility of many rather than relying on the power of one. Their revolutionary five-dimensional approach recognizes that leadership has to be fluid and flexible and that the roles leaders and followers play must shift to suit the situation. Co-Active Leadership invites all of us to share our expertise and allows collaborative solutions to emerge that would never have been possible otherwise.
