Deadline Effect
'I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.' So said author Douglas Adams - but what if there was a way of making deadlines work for you and using them to ensure others provide you with what you want when you want it?
In Christopher Cox's brilliant new book, he looks at the impact deadlines have on us, and how we can use them to deliver the best results for all parties. Social scientists have revealed that most negotiations run right up to the deadline before a deal is finally struck. What they also discovered was that this deadline effect usually results in a worse deal for both parties. Cox shows you how, instead, the deadline effect can be used to bring about success not failure.
The truth is that most of us think of deadlines all wrong. They aren't immutable laws of nature; they are a game we can play - and win. This book will show you the strategies different workplaces have come up with to do just that. They are the businesses and individuals who are rehabilitating the deadline effect, taking the urgency it provides and jettisoning all the down-to-the-wire nonsense. Based on his own experience as a magazine commissioning editor, where coaxing writers to deliver on time is an art form, he also embeds himself in other businesses, such as a ski patrol ahead of the first day of the winter season, to see how they meet deadlines that cannot be missed.
Above all, this book is an argument to embrace the power of deadlines. When time is limited, people are less wasteful, more focused, productive and creative. It's a liberating realisation: excellence and timeliness are not at odds, and the deadline effect can be highly effective.
Karriertervező
Kamenyiczki Nóra, az Élettervező szerzőjének második könyve fiatalos, modern külsőbe csomagolt önismereti napló. Azokhoz szól, akik tudatosabban szeretnének foglalkozni a karrierjükkel. A pályaválasztás az egyik legfontosabb döntéshelyzet az életünk során, ami az egész életünkre kihat. A fontossága mellett a nehézségét az okozza, hogy döntések sorozatáról van szó: a karrierünk folyamatosan velünk együtt változik, és rugalmasan magunkra kell szabnunk, hiszen érdeklődésünk, valamint a képességeink is folyamatosan fejlődnek. A pályánkon történő előrehaladás nem egyenlő a karrierépítéssel, ez utóbbi ugyanis tudatosságot és folyamatos önreflexiót igényel. A Karriertervező célja, hogy sorvezetőt adjon azokhoz az önismereti kérdésekhez, amiket időről időre érdemes végiggondolni a karrierünkkel kapcsolatban. Az interaktív önsegítő könyv hasznos lehet azok számára, akik most indulnak el a választott pályájukon, akik karrierváltáson gondolkodnak, de azok számára is hasznos gyűjtemény, akik karriertanácsadással, coachinggal foglalkoznak, mivel a gyakorlatok az egyéni tanácsadásokba, tréningekbe is átültethetőek. A naplóforma megengedi, hogy az olvasó íróvá is váljon: a válaszaival kézzel foghatóvá válik, miben fejlődött, milyen sikereket ért el és milyen további irányokban érdemes gondolkodnia a jövőben.

Quantum Computing (WIRED guides)
Quantum computing has been hailed as a technological game-changer. But what precisely is it and what is its true potential?
In this superbly insightful, one-stop guide WIRED journalist Amit Katwala tells you everything you need to know about the next computer revolution. He explains the highly complex science that lies behind it. He describes the competing efforts of the likes of Google, Microsoft and Chinese companies Tencent and Alibaba to create a viable quantum computer, and the different routes they have taken to meet the immense technical challenges involved. He considers the technology's potential application in spheres as diverse as medicine, cyber security and clean energy. And he addresses the fundamental question: how close are we to seeing quantum computers become a widespread reality.
Nekonečná hra
Autor bestsellerů Začněte s PROČ a Lídři jedí poslední přichází s novou knihou!
Ve své novince představuje koncept konečných a nekonečných her jako cestu k trvale úspěšnému podnikání, jehož cílem není porazit konkurenci, ale stát se nesmrtelnou firmou, ikonou, jež přežije změny, otřesy trhu i sebe samu. A bude prospívat lidem a komunitám, v nichž působí.
Sinek vysvětluje koncept dvou typů her konečné a nekonečné , vycházející z myšlenek Jamese P. Carse a jeho knihy. Ty však aplikuje na firemní prostředí. Konečná hra má začátek, prostředek a konec, přesně definovaný počet hráčů, pevná pravidla a jasný cíl. Vítězové a poražení jsou snadno identifikovatelní... např. hokej, šachy... Nekonečná hra je potom taková, která nemá přesně ohraničený časový horizont, nemá jasná pravidla a nelze ji vyhrát, protože jejím primárním cílem je, aby nikdy neskončila. Do nekonečných her, mezi než se řadí podnikání, politika, studium a vlastně i život samotný, vstupují hráči náhodně. Odcházejí a přicházejí, pravidla se mění a konečný cíl neexistuje.
Autor převádí koncept na byznys a tvrdí, že by lídři 21. století měli podnikání vnímat právě jako nekonečnou hru: nezaměřovat se jen na zisk, optimalizace a krátkodobé cíle, ale dívat se do budoucna, řídit se ušlechtilou vizí a usilovat o to, aby jejich podnikání přinášelo užitek nejenom jim, ale také zaměstnancům, zákazníkům a světu. Jen taková firma je pak otevřená inovacím, schopná zvládnout změny, rozvíjí se a inspiruje. Na mnoha příkladech velkých společností ukazuje, že přejít na nekonečnou hru zvládnete i vy.

Fear Less
If we were truly free from fear, what could we achieve?
We strive for success, but we are rarely happy. The more we try to win - putting on a brave face for work or family - the more we risk losing ourselves. And even reaching our goals can feel strangely hollow. The culprit? Fear. It makes us anxious, or shameful, or turns us into perfectionists. We pretend to be someone else while aiming for a status that's never truly satisfying.
There is another way. A way to find our true voice, to win on our own terms. Building that open mindset is at the heart of this mould-breaking book by Dr Pippa Grange, the psychologist who helped transform the England team, taking them all the way to the World Cup semi-finals in 2018.
In Fear Less, Pippa Grange shows all of us how, by starting to live with less fear, we can find our real passions and deeper fulfilment. Her simple manifesto enables us to replace stress with courage, and connect with the people around us on a far deeper level.
This type of success isn't about trophies or beating others, it's about winning at the very deepest level: winning from within. It's time to fear less.

Think Like a Breadwinner
A new kind of manifesto for the working woman, with practical guidance on building wealth as well as inspiration for harnessing the freedom and power that comes from a breadwinning mindset.
Women are now the main breadwinner in one-in-four households in the UK. Yet the majority of women still aren't being brought up to think like breadwinners. In fact, they're actively discouraged - by institutional bias and subconscious beliefs - from building their own wealth, pursuing their full earning potential, and providing for themselves and others financially. The result is that women earn less, owe more, and have significantly less money saved and invested for the future than men do. And if women do end up as the main breadwinner, they've been conditioned to feel reluctant and unprepared to manage the role.
In Think Like a Breadwinner, financial expert Jennifer Barrett reframes what it really means to be a breadwinner by dismantling the narrative that women don't - and shouldn't - take full financial responsibility to create the lives they want. Featuring a wide variety of case studies from women at all stages of their careers and financial lives, Barrett shares the secrets of women who already think like breadwinners. Barrett reveals not only the importance of women building their own wealth, but also the freedom and power that comes with it.
Digital Body Language
The book we all read right now: the definitive guide to communicating and connecting wherever you are.
Email replies that show up a week later. Video chats full of 'oops sorry no you go' and 'can you hear me?!' Ambiguous text-messages. Weird punctuation you can't make heads or tails of. Is it any wonder communication takes us so much time and effort to figure out? How did we lose our innate capacity to understand each other?
Humans rely on body language to connect and build trust, but with most of our communication happening from behind a screen, traditional body language signals are no longer visible - or are they? In Digital Body Language, Erica Dhawan, a go-to thought leader on collaboration and a passionate communication junkie, combines cutting edge research with engaging storytelling to decode the new signals and cues that have replaced traditional body language across genders, generations, and culture. In real life, we lean in, uncross our arms, smile, nod and make eye contact to show we listen and care. Online, reading carefully is the new listening. Writing clearly is the new empathy. And a phone or video call is worth a thousand emails.
Digital Body Language will turn your daily misunderstandings into a set of collectively understood laws that foster connection, no matter the distance. Dhawan investigates a wide array of exchanges-from large conferences and video meetings to daily emails, texts, IMs, and conference calls-and offers insights and solutions to build trust and clarity to anyone in our ever changing world.

How to Change
'Katy Milkman shows in this book that we can all be a super human' Angela Duckworth, bestselling author of Grit
How to Change is a powerful, groundbreaking blueprint to help you - and anyone you manage, teach or coach - to achieve personal and professional goals, from the master of human nature and behaviour change and Choiceology podcast host Professor Katy Milkman.
Award-winning Wharton Professor Katy Milkman has devoted her career to the study of behaviour change. An engineer by training, she approaches all challenges as problems to be solved and, with this mind-set, has drilled into the roadblocks that prevent us from achieving our goals and breaking unwanted behaviours. The key to lasting change, she argues, is not to set ever more audacious goals or to foster good habits but to get your strategy right.
In How to Change Milkman identifies seven human impulses, or 'problems', that commonly sabotage our attempts to make positive personal and professional change. Then, crucially, instead of getting you to do battle with these impulses she shows you how to harness them and use these as driving forces to help instil new, positive behaviours - better, faster and more efficiently than you could imagine.
Drawing her own original research, countless engaging case studies and practical tools throughout to help you put her ideas into action, Milkman reveals a proven, inspiring path that can take you - once and for all - from where you are today to where you want to be.
