This accessible, highly interactive book presents a transformative approach to communication in leadership to meet workplace challenges at both local and global levels. Informed by neuroscience, psychology, as well as leadership science, it explains how integrating and properly balancing two key focal points of management—the tasks at hand and the concerns of others and self—can facilitate decision-making, partnering with diverse colleagues, and handling of crises and conflicts. Case examples, a self-test, friendly calls for reflection, and practical exercises provide readers with varied opportunities to assess, support, and evoke their readiness to apply these real-world concepts to the...
Kniha předkládá komentovaný výbor textů věnujících se z různých perspektiv problematice individualismu. Každá z kapitol pojednává o jednom vybraném autorovi. Je uvedena stručným představením jeho díla a myšlení, po němž je čtenář proveden četbou několika jeho klíčových textů. Vedle známých myslitelů, jako je T. G. Masaryk, E. Rádl, E. Beneš, L. Klíma, J. Patočka či J. Mukařovský, se zde pojednává o pozapomenutých filosofech (K. Vorovka, V. Hoppe, F. Pelikán, T. Trnka) či myslitelích pohybujících se na pomezí disciplín (F. Mareš, E. Chalupný, F. Tučný, A. Breisky), včetně solitérů, kteří navzdory různým intelektuálním módám lpěli na dialektickém způsobu myšlení (J. Kabeš, F. Sedlák). Nedílnou součástí výboru jsou také tři kapitoly věnované výrazným osobnostem slovenského myšlení (S. Štúr, G. Vámoš, H. Szántó). Závěr svazku sestává z kapitoly o československé variantě existencialismu. Předkládaný výbor doplňuje připravovanou dvousvazkovou monografii o československé filosofii individualismu.

Praise for Bergin and Garfield's Handbook of Psychotherapy and Behavior Change, Sixth Edition "Not only is this a unique resource, it is the only book that all practitioners and researchers must read to ensure that they are in touch with the extraordinary advances that the field has made over the last years.

N. Katherine Hayles is known for breaking new ground at the intersection of the sciences and the humanities. In Unthought, she once again bridges disciplines by revealing how we think without thinking—how we use cognitive processes that are inaccessible to consciousness yet necessary for it to function. Marshalling fresh insights from neuroscience, cognitive science, cognitive biology, and literature, Hayles expands our understanding of cognition and demonstrates that it involves more than consciousness alone. Cognition, as Hayles defines it, is applicable not only to nonconscious processes in humans but to all forms of life, including unicellular organisms and plants. Startlingly, she als...

'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.
