The CEO's Greatest Asset: The Art and Science of Landing Leaders , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 379min
CEOs and leadership teams speak about how people are their greatest asset.One would think that in pursuit of their prized assets, there would be a structured and reliable way to make informed decisions about who to hire. Judging by the processes Fortune 500 companies and others follow to hire executives, it seems like they’re not entirely sure what they’re doing. From outdated, unreliable competency question frameworks to psychometric tests that have no scientific validity, it is little wonder that it’s often left to guesswork and gut feel to make such important hiring decisions.This audiobook aims to do three things. Firstly, review what over 100 years of social science has taught us about what we should be looking out for in executive talent acquisition. Secondly, it aims to dissect what is wrong with how we currently approach executive hiring. Finally, it proposes an entirely new interview and selection framework based on four new dimensions of leadership and 24 related traits. The goal is to replace outdated competency interviews and guesswork, or at the very least, to encourage listeners to start questioning everything about how they currently approach executive talent acquisition.Written by Fraser Hill, who has spent his 20-year career living and working all over the world, from Asia to Eastern Europe, the UK, Canada, and now the USA, advising and headhunting leadership teams in Fortune 500’s and high growth companies. ungekürzt.

Celebrity, Inc.: How Famous People Make Money , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 454min
From $10,000 tweets to making money in the afterlife, a recovering gossip columnist explores the business lessons that power the Hollywood Industrial Complex. Why do celebrities get paid so much more than regular people to do a job that seems to afford them the same amount of leisure time as most retirees? What do Bush-era economics have to do with the rise of Kim Kardashian? How do the laws of supply and demand explain why the stars of Teen Mom are on the cover of Us Weekly? And how was the sale of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's baby pictures a little like a street drug deal? After a decade spent toiling as an entertainment journalist and gossip columnist, Jo Piazza asks the hard questions about the business behind celebrity. Make no mistake: celebrity is an industry. Never in the course of human history has the market for celebrities been as saturated as it is today. Nearly every day most Americans will consume something a celebrity is selling - a fragrance, a sneaker, a song, a movie, a show, a tweet, or a photo in a magazine. With the benefits of Piazza's unique access to the celebrity market, Celebrity, Inc. explains in detail what generates cash for the industry and what drains value faster than a starlet downs champagne in 12 fascinating case studies that tackle celebrities the way industry analysts would dissect any consumer brand. ungekürzt.

Fixing Hell: An Army Psychologist Confronts Abu Ghraib, Hörbuch, Digital, 407min
In April 2004, the world was shocked by the brutal pictures of beatings, dog attacks, sex acts, and the torture of prisoners held at Abu Ghraib in Iraq. As the story broke, and the world began to learn about the extent of the horrors that occurred there, the U.S. Army dispatched Colonel Larry James to Abu Ghraib with an overwhelming assignment: to dissect this catastrophe, fix it, and prevent it from being repeated.A veteran of deployments to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and a nationally well-known and respected Army psychologist, Colonel James's expertise made him the one individual capable of taking on this enormous task. Through Colonel James's own experience on the ground, readers will see the tightrope military personnel must walk while fighting in the still new battlefield of the war on terror, the challenge of serving as both a doctor/healer and combatant soldier, and what can-and must-be done to ensure that interrogations are safe, moral, and effective.At the same time, Colonel James also debunks many of the false stories and media myths surrounding the actions of American soldiers at both Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay, and he reveals shining examples of our men and women in uniform striving to serve with honor and integrity in the face of extreme hardship and danger.An intense and insightful personal narrative, Fixing Hell shows us an essential perspective on Abu Ghraib that we've never seen before.

Do Zombies Dream of Undead Sheep?: A Neuroscientific View of the Zombie Brain , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 424min
Even if you’ve never seen a zombie movie or television show, you could identify an undead ghoul if you saw one. With their endless wandering, lumbering gait, insatiable hunger, antisocial behavior, and apparently memory-less existence, zombies are the walking nightmares of our deepest fears. What do these characteristic behaviors reveal about the inner workings of the zombie mind? Could we diagnose zombism as a neurological condition by studying their behavior? In Do Zombies Dream of Undead Sheep?, neuroscientists and zombie enthusiasts Timothy Verstynen and Bradley Voytek apply their neuro-know-how to dissect the puzzle of what has happened to the zombie brain to make the undead act differently than their human prey. Combining tongue-in-cheek analysis with modern neuroscientific principles, Verstynen and Voytek show how zombism can be understood in terms of current knowledge regarding how the brain works. In each chapter, the authors draw on zombie popular culture and identify a characteristic zombie behavior that can be explained using neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and brain-behavior relationships. Through this exploration they shed light on fundamental neuroscientific questions such as: How does the brain function during sleeping and waking? What neural systems control movement? What is the nature of sensory perception? Walking an ingenious line between seriousness and satire, Do Zombies Dream of Undead Sheep? leverages the popularity of zombie culture in order to give listeners a solid foundation in neuroscience. ungekürzt.
