What are the fundamentals to consider when we aim at empowering our reports. Is coaching a suitable approach? As a manager, I am responsible for the proper fulfilment of the tasks detailed in my job description. One of those tasks has to do with people management, as in the end, they are the ones that actually will perform most of the operative tasks.

Lo que no dijo El Secreto
La ley de la atracción no es sino una de un conjunto de tres leyes universales que, al entenderlas, permiten comprender no solo las contradicciones anteriores, sino la vida misma. Este conjunto de leyes esta conformado por la ley de la atracción ya mencionada, la ley de la repulsión y la ley de la compensación. Millones de personas en todo el mundo quedaron cautivadas por las palabras motivadoras y llenas de optimismo que el secreto ofrecía. En una vida caótica y sin sentido, el secreto llegó a ser un faro de esperanza al mostrarle a la gente cómo hacer realidad sus sueños si son capaces de utilizar una visualización creativa, una actitud positiva ante la vida y los vastos poderes de la mente. Pero así como la resaca sigue a una borrachera, millones de personas se despertaron al día siguiente sin lograr sus sueños ni conseguir sus deseos. Si el mensaje del secreto era tan alentador, confortante y entusiasta, ¿qué estaba mal? No es que algo esté mal, sino que está incompleto. El Universo está hecho de leyes: conocer y aplicar una desconociendo otras no solo no garantiza nada, sino que incluso se pueden obtener resultados no deseados, hasta negativos.

La Respuesta Escalofriante
Hadas, duendes, ángeles, demonios, fantasmas, vírgenes y extraterrestres: todo es real, existe y esta aquí, pero las hadas y los duendes no son seres mágicos, los ángeles y los demonios no son seres espirituales, los fantasmas no son espíritus de personas muertas, las vírgenes no son apariciones beatificas de entidades espirituales y los extraterrestres no son seres de otros mundos u otras dimensiones. La respuesta es una, es común, es lógica, es coherente y, más que eso, es escalofriante. Hadas, duendes, ángeles, demonios, fantasmas, vírgenes y extraterrestres: la historia humana está llena de historias cuyo hilo conductor es la interacción del ser humano con entidades de otra...

Regional Integration, Development, and Governance in Mesoamerica
This book provides an overview of governance and development in the Mesoamerican Region (MAR), the design and scope of the Plan Puebla Panamá (PPP), its relationship to pre-existing regional organisms and its transformation into Proyecto Mesoamérica. The PPP was introduced as a holistic project that would reverse the cycles of poverty in Mesoamerica. However, the plan incited huge opposition from many groups within Mesoamerica, and throughout its duration few of its objectives were met. The author analyses the plan and describes the regional setting and precursors, as well as the US policy towards the Mesoamerican countries. Using this approach with an analysis of governance in Mesoamerica, this monograph shows a more complete picture of why this ambitious development project did not reach its goals and draws applicable insights to other regions where governance is complex.
