95% of knowledge workers are on multiple teams. 75% of those teams don't exist on the organisation chart. We are on multiple teams because modern organisations need to operate as dynamic networks of teams to keep up with a rate of change that is outpacing their hierarchical structures that rely on rigid policies and procedures. Operating as a dynamic network of teams is a pathway to a more agile, dynamic and connected way of working. For most of us, teamwork on multiple teams feels like a lot of work and not much team, draining us of energy, attention, and time. Teamership gives you the tools to make multiple teams work. It exposes what has been hiding in plain sight - that our assumptions about how work gets done in modern organisations needs to shift. You will explore: What is stopping us from getting the most out of multiple teams. How individuals, leaders and teams can thrive across multiple teams. Teamership as a competitive advantage at all levels of an organisation. Now is the time to work together as connected leadership teams, dynamic leaders, and energised individuals.

The Endurance of Family Businesses is a collection of essays offering an overview of the importance and resilience of family-controlled large businesses. Much of economic and business history research neglects family businesses, considering them an inefficient form of business organization. These essays discuss the strengths of family businesses: the ways family firms have managed, financed and governed their corporations, as well as the way in which they structure their relationship with the external environment, from the government to the company's stakeholders. Family businesses have learned new ways of organizing their resources and using their accumulated know-how for new markets and institutional environments. This volume combines the expertise of well-known scholars who specialize in business history, economic history, management and consulting, to provide an interdisciplinary perspective on family businesses. Contributors provide a global view by taking into account Asian, American and European experiences.

Heartwarming and Heart-Opening Stories Gathered from Decades of Medical Practice Bernie Siegel first wrote about miracles when he was a practicing surgeon and founded Exceptional Cancer Patients, a groundbreaking synthesis of group, individual, dream, and art therapy that provided patients with a “carefrontation.” Compiled during his more than thirty years of practice, speaking, and teaching, the stories in these pages are riveting, warm, and belief expanding. Their subjects include a girl whose baby brother helped her overcome anorexia, a woman whose cancer helped her heal by teaching her to stand up for herself, and a family that was saved from a burning house by bats. Without diminishing the reality of pain and hardship, the stories show real people turning crisis into blessing by responding to adversity in ways that empower and heal. They demonstrate what we are capable of and show us that we can achieve miracles as we confront life’s difficulties.
