Extreme Ownership
An updated edition of the blockbuster bestselling leadership book that took America and the world by storm, two U.S. Navy SEAL officers who led the most highly decorated special operations unit of the Iraq War demonstrate how to apply powerful leadership principles from the battlefield to business and life. Now with an excerpt from the authors' new book, THE DICHOTOMY OF LEADERSHIP.
Combat, the most intense and dynamic environment imaginable, teaches the toughest leadership lessons, with absolutely everything at stake. Jocko Willink and Leif Babin learned this reality first-hand on the most violent and dangerous battlefield in Iraq. As leaders of SEAL Team Three's Task Unit Bruiser, their mission was one many thought impossible: help U.S. forces secure Ramadi, a violent, insurgent-held city deemed "all but lost." In gripping, firsthand accounts of heroism, tragic loss, and hard-won victories, they learned that leadership--at every level--is the most important factor in whether a team succeeds or fails.
Willink and Babin returned home from deployment and instituted SEAL leadership training to pass on their harsh lessons learned in combat to help forge the next generation of SEAL leaders. After leaving the SEAL Teams, they launched a company, Echelon Front, to teach those same leadership principles to leaders in businesses, companies, and organizations across the civilian sector. Since that time, they have trained countless leaders and worked with hundreds of companies in virtually every industry across the U.S. and internationally, teaching them how to develop their own high-performance teams and most effectively lead those teams to dominate their battlefields.
Since it's release in October 2015, Extreme Ownership has revolutionized leadership development and set a new standard for literature on the subject. Required reading for many of the most successful organizations, it has become an integral part of the official leadership training programs for scores of business teams, military units, and first responders. Detailing the mindset and principles that enable SEAL units to accomplish the most difficult combat missions, Extreme Ownership demonstrates how to apply them to any team or organization, in any leadership environment. A compelling narrative with powerful instruction and direct application, Extreme Ownership challenges leaders everywhere to fulfill their ultimate purpose: lead and win.

Hospodársky vývoj Slovenska
Ekonomický ústav SAV pripravuje od roku 1993 každoročne takúto analýzu hospodárskeho vývoja Slovenska. V publikácii venujeme pozornosť hodnoteniu ekonomickej úrovne a výkonu ekonomiky, vonkajšej a vnútornej rovnováhy, hospodárskej politiky, vývoja na trhu práce, ako aj opatrení, ktoré zmenili ekonomické prostredie. V porovnaní s minuloročnou publikáciou je táto obohatená o pohľad na vývoj v odvetviach hospodárstva či na vývoj finančného sektora. Séria čiastkových analýz ústi do posúdenia možností ďalšieho vývoja v krátkodobom výhľade. Jeho zmyslom nie je priniesť podrobné kvantifikácie ekonomických parametrov, skôr uvažovať nad rámcom najpravdepodobnejšieho vývoja a prípadnými rizikami.
Náznaky prerušenia viacročnej deflácie, medziročný prepad investícií, nečakane priaznivý vývoj na trhu práce, spochybňovanie dlhovej brzdy – to sú niektoré z tých javov, ktoré boli pre rok 2016 charakteristické. Nemôžu preto ujsť našej pozornosti v tejto publikácii. Takéto javy sa diali na pozadí niektorých dlhšie prítomných tendencií: napríklad niekoľko rokov pretrvával ekonomický rast s tempom okolo 3 %, pretrvávala neštandardná expanzívna menová politika alebo pretrvával relatívne výrazný rast reálnej mzdy.
The analysis of Slovak economic development by Economic Institute, SAS is regularly published since 1993. It evaluates the level of economic development and economic performance, internal and external balance, economic policy, labour and financial markets development as well as measures that have changed the economic environment. In comparison to the previous year`s publication, this one enriches with a look at developments in the economic sectors or with developments in the financial sector. A series of partial analyses leads to an assessment of the possible future development in short-term. The purpose of publication is not to provide the detailed quantification of economic parameters, but rather to provide scenarios of the most likely development and possible risks in the future.
The signs of multi-year deflation interruption, the year-on-year fall in investments, the unexpectedly favorable development of labour market, or the questioning of "debt brake mechanism" - these are some of the features characteristic for 2016. Thus, we pay attention to them in the publication. Such phenomena have occurred in the background of some longer-term trends: e.g. the economic growth around 3 % rate, persisting non-standard expansionary monetary policy or lasting relatively robust real wage growth.
Súvislosti príjmovej polarizácie na Slovensku II.
Publikácia je pokračovaním objasňovania súvislostí príjmovej polarizácie na Slovensku, ktoré boli súčasťou predchádzajúcej monografie z roku 2016. V nej sme predstavili našu metodológiu skúmania príjmových nerovností a polarizácie s prihliadnutím i na medzinárodné teoretické a praktické skúsenosti. V tejto monografii pokračujeme v odhaľovaní rozsahu pôsobenia determinantov nerovností a polarizácie predovšetkým na regionálnej úrovni Slovenska a okruh bádania rozširujeme o dôležité aspekty problémov financovania dôchodkového systému a obmedzenia spotreby domácností vo väzbe na potenciál rastu nerovností a prehlbovania polarizácie. Opäť si dovoľujeme upriamiť čitateľovu pozornosť na potrebu kritického myslenia, predovšetkým v súvislosti s prezentovanými výsledkami porovnania vývoja nezamestnanosti a miezd na Slovensku, v Čechách a v Maďarsku a pri charakteristike dopadov systémových zmien po roku 1989 na regionálnu úroveň Slovenska.
War by Other Means
A Foreign Affairs Best Book of 2016
Today, nations increasingly carry out geopolitical combat through economic means. Policies governing everything from trade and investment to energy and exchange rates are wielded as tools to win diplomatic allies, punish adversaries, and coerce those in between. Not so in the United States, however. America still too often reaches for the gun over the purse to advance its interests abroad. The result is a playing field sharply tilting against the United States.
"Geoeconomics, the use of economic instruments to advance foreign policy goals, has long been a staple of great-power politics. In this impressive policy manifesto, Blackwill and Harris argue that in recent decades, the United States has tended to neglect this form of statecraft, while China, Russia, and other illiberal states have increasingly employed it to Washington's disadvantage."
--G. John Ikenberry, Foreign Affairs
"A readable and lucid primer...The book defines the extensive topic and opens readers' eyes to its prevalence throughout history...[Presidential] candidates who care more about protecting American interests would be wise to heed the advice of War by Other Means and take our geoeconomic toolkit more seriously.
--Jordan Schneider, Weekly Standard

The Fix
Longlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award 2016 The world's most intractable problems solved: ambitious lessons in leadership and hope from free-thinkers and innovators who have tackled our biggest challenges From immigration reform to energy resources, from political paralysis to inequality and extremism, we are beset by a raft of huge and seemingly insurmountable issues. The daily newspapers, the rolling 24-hour television news, portray a world in terminal decline. What goes under-reported are the success stories. Here, taking ten of the most knotty issues we face today, Jonathan Tepperman examines unsung individuals' bold and innovative attempts against all odds and expectations to solve some of the important problems governments have struggled with for decades. Each chapter tells the story of one government that's found a way to avoid the snares that entangle most of the others. The solutions described in the book aren't speculative: they've all already been tried, and they work. Controversial, provocative but always stimulating, Tepperman here offers a powerful, data-driven case for optimism. Written with flair and an infectious exuberance, The Fix is a book to restore hope to the pessimistic, and offer both practical advice and inspiration in a time of relentless bad news.
Üzleti kaméleon - Hogyan legyünk sikeres menedzserek?
"A hatékony és eredményes működés alkalmazkodva a lehetőségekhez - ez az üzleti kaméleon filozófia. Ez az elvárás az, amit egy vezetővel szemben megfogalmaznak. Ehhez viszont nem gépek, nem is pénz, hanem jó vezetői döntések és egy jó csapat kell. Tehát az eredmény és hatékonyság kulcsa az ember, az üzleti kaméleon logikában gondolkodó menedzser.
"Károlyi László az üzleti valóság talaján két lábbal áll, de látóköre nemcsak a lába előtt heverő banánhéjra terjed ki, noha gyakorló vezetőnél ez igen fontos képesség, hanem a nap állására és a csillagok járására is: ez pedig - ha lehet - még fontosabb annak, aki jó irányba akarja vezetni a rábízottakat." (Bod Péter Ákos, a Budapesti Corvinus Egyetem professzora, a Magyar Nemzeti Bank volt elnöke)"
Day After Tomorrow
"Peter Hinssen's radical long-term view on organizing and innovation is as fascinating as it is insightful. This is a great read about the future of business, aimed at those who want to witness the potential of this age of disruption." Adam Pisoni, CEO at Abl Schools, Co-founder of Responsive.org and Co-founder of Yammer. "Peter Hinssen has done it again! The Day After Tomorrow is a provocative and inspiring book that will challenge you, educate you and open your eyes to possibilities that you never thought existed. A must-read for any organisation that wants to prepare for disruptive changes." Costas Markides, Professor of Strategy and Entrepreneurship at London Business School. "Many futurists entice us with fanciful notions. Peter Hinssen, however, manages the impossible, combining a stunning clear vision of the future with a compelling but concrete framework to act on now." Eddie Obeng, Professor at Pentacle The Virtual Business School. For today's organisations, our constantly changing world has brought great consequences.
In this book, Peter Hinssen tells the story of the pioneers who managed to adapt to those changes, and who moved beyond today and even tomorrow in their approach to innovation. In doing so, they were able to change the course of entire industries. Peter's book focuses on the business models of these pioneers, on the organisational culture, the talent, the mindset and the technology we should tap into in order to maximise our chances for survival in the 'Day After Tomorrow'. It will shift your perspective on your future, on the future of your company and even that of your grandchildren.

Easternisation
WITH A NEW PREFACE BY THE AUTHOR The West's domination of world politics is coming to a close. The flow of wealth and power is turning from West to East and a new era of global instability has begun. Easternisation is the defining trend of our age - the growing wealth of Asian nations is transforming the international balance of power. This shift to the East is shaping the lives of people all over the world, the fate of nations and the great questions of war and peace. A troubled but rising China is now challenging America's supremacy, and the ambitions of other Asian powers - including Japan, North Korea, India and Pakistan - have the potential to shake the whole world. Meanwhile the West is struggling with economic malaise and political populism, the Arab world is in turmoil and Russia longs to reclaim its status as a great power. We are at a turning point in history: but Easternisation has many decades to run. Gideon Rachman offers a road map to the turbulent process that will define the international politics of the twenty-first century.

Body Positive Power
IF YOU'RE TIRED OF BEING AT WAR WITH YOUR BODY, THEN THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU. We've been convinced that happiness is something that only comes once we hit that goal weight, get those washboard abs, shrink ourselves down and change every part of ourselves. We believe that our bodies are the problem, but this is not true. It's how we've been taught to see our bodies that's the problem... It's time for us all to stop believing the lies we've been fed about what it means to be beautiful, and take our power back. Megan's body image issues began when she was five years old. She spent her childhood chasing thinness, and at fourteen found herself spiralling into anorexia. After recovery she spent years dieting, binging, losing and gaining weight. But then she found body positivity, quit dieting, and finally escaped the cult of thin. Now she's determined to let as many people as possible know the truth: that we are all good enough as we are. With her inimitable flair, whip-smart wit and kickass attitude, Megan argues for a new way of seeing ourselves, and a world where every body is celebrated. Where there is no such thing as a `bikini body diet' and 97% of women don't hate the way they look. A powerful call to arms as much as it is inspirational and practical, this book is the life-changing answer you've been looking for.

One Kiss or Two? - In Search of The Perfect Greeting
Every encounter between two people begins with a greeting. Be it a quick `Hello!' or the somewhat longer and gracious `Sula manchwanta galunga omugobe!', shaking hands or shaking, well, rather more private parts of our anatomy, we have been doing it many times daily for thousands of years. It should really be the most straightforward thing in the world, but this apparently simple act is fraught with complications, leading to awkward misunderstandings and occasionally even outright violence. Why is that? Why are greetings so important? Can we ever find the perfect way of saying hello? In the illuminating and entertaining One Kiss or Two? Andy Scott - a well-travelled former diplomat, and no stranger to fumbled first contacts himself - goes down the rabbit hole to take a closer look at what greetings are all about and how they have developed, and discovers a kaleidoscopic world of etiquette, body-language, evolution, neuroscience, anthropology and history. Through in-depth research and his personal experiences, and with the help of experts ranging from the world-famous primatologist Jane Goodall to the UK's etiquette coach par excellence William Hanson, Scott takes us on a captivating journey through a subject far richer than we might have expected. By the end of it, we are able to make more sense of what lies behind greetings - and what it means to be human.
