    The United States needs to understand each of the many Asian states in detail: while there are similarities, they all have situations that are difficult to compare. The U.S., Japan, and Asia in International Politics focuses on U.S. interests in Asia in its broadest contours - from Japan, China, and the Koreas in the east; a discussion of India in the south; and also to Afghanistan and Pakistan in the west. This book also treats Russia as an Asia-Pacific power. Author Andrew K. Hanami examines the economic, financial, trade, and security issue differences in the region. Washington is rushing to find a balance in its foreign policy goals among the differing Asia-Pacific states through such measures as: erecting trade corridors, enacting bilateral arrangements, deploying troops, and pursuing a cycle of encirclement and openness as the administration searches for stability and prosperity. This text explores if U.S. policy is improving on the problems found in a suddenly larger Asia, or in some way compounding them. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bill Hensel.

    Today's workforce is more diverse than ever before. But despite new perspectives and talents, the promise of increased innovation rarely materializes. Why are so few businesses seeing results? Studies show that diverse teams are more creative than homogenous ones - but only when they are managed effectively. The secret is to minimize conflict while maximizing the informational diversity found in varied values and experiences. To do this, both leaders and team members need a high level of cultural intelligence, or CQ. Drawing on success stories from Google, Alibaba, Novartis, and other groundbreaking companies, Driven by Difference identifies the management practices necessary to guide multicultural teams to innovation, including how to: Create an optimal environment Build trust Fuse differing perspectives Align goals and expectations Generate fresh ideas Consider the various audiences when selecting and selling an idea Design and test for different users Cultural differences can lead to gridlock, or they can catalyze innovation and growth. This research-based plan turns diversity's potential into economic reality. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Walter Dixon.

    Drunk Dad, Sober Dad is the reflection on the father figures and mother figures who played a role towards influencing my behaviors in life. Both parties, drunk dad and sober dad, taught me very important life skills and lessons.

The book is written to stimulate your own memories of the people that influenced you, who you admire, and why you admire them. You will likely see your own mentors and role models mixed in the book.
