Investigative Interviewing: Adopting a Forensic Mindset
by John E. Grimes IIIInvestigative Interviewing: Adopting a Forensic Mindset aims to promote legal and ethical investigative interview methods. Accordingly, possessing a forensic mindset should be the foundation that governs every aspect of an investigative interviewer's actions. Being a forensic professional—which includes the field of forensic interviewing—infers that one applies the highest standards in collecting, analyzing, preserving, and presenting evidence to a court of law or other tribunals. The term "investigative interview” with an interviewer's forensic mindset can be used to achieve all interview objectives, even obtaining truthful confessions that stand up to the scrutiny of the courts and public opinion. Key to this, the author contends, is eliminating the term “interrogation” and the confession-obtaining mindset it creates. In its place, the term “investigative interview” is used, promoting a forensic mindset to achieve desired interview objectives. What transpires during the interview must stand up to the scrutiny of the courts and public opinion. In this regard, due process, documenting the procedure, and practicing proven, effective techniques is paramount to getting to the truth—the ultimate goal of any investigation. The book includes a chapter dedicated to false confessions, due to is criticality and frequent occurrences of this. It continues with a discussion on the desired qualities of an investigative interviewer and strategies to break down barriers and gain trust with reluctant, uncooperative, and hostile interviewees. Proper report writing, an underrated key to any interview and investigation, is addressed in detail. Lastly. the book provides training on best practice interview steps and strategies to lead the interviewee to the truth that will stand up to the scrutiny of the courts and public opinion. Investigative Interviewing: Adopting a Forensic Mindset is well-suited as a textbook—outlining techniques and detailing all relevant case law concerning confessions— in addition to providing an Instructor’s Manual with Test Bank and PowerPoint slides for professors to utilize in classroom instruction.

Investimento in borsa per principianti
by Richard Stooker Alessandro BalsanoVuoi iniziare a investire nel mercato azionario, ma non sei sicuro di come farlo? Cosa sono le azioni? Cosa determina i loro prezzi di mercato? Perché salgono e scendono? Come faccio a battere il mercato azionario? Cosa sono i fondi comuni? Cosa sono gli indici di fondi? Cosa sono i fondi tradizionali scambiati? Anche se il mercato azionario è il cuore della ricchezza di un paese e, anche se consente a tutti di essere proprietario di parte nei più grandi e più riusciti paesi del mondo, non viene insegnato nelle scuole pubbliche. Ma state attenti: la stampa principale spesso falsifica il mercato azionario. Si concentrano a fare notizie emozionanti e drammatiche per vendere copie. Francamente, il miglior investimento è l'investimento noioso. Consiste nel mettere quanti soldi ti puoi permettere in molte aziende e reinvestire i dividendi. E continuare a farlo fino a raggiungere l'età di pensionamento. Il miglior investimento non è di cercare di capire cosa succederà nell'economia o nei mercati domani, la prossima settimana, il prossimo mese o l'anno prossimo. Molti scrittori finanziari cercano di farti pensare di dover lavorare sodo nell'investimento. Devi studiare i grafici delle azioni ogni notte. Leggere relazioni annuali. Analizzare in modo approfondito i bilanci dell'azienda. Leggere THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, BARRON'S e MONEY MAGAZINE. Acquistare un software speciale. Seguire i forum di investimento online. Non così! Non perdete tempo. Questo libro porta la teoria finanziaria moderna alla sua conclusione logica. È possibile ottenere il massimo vantaggio a lungo termine seguendo il suo semplice piano. Non è necessaria nessuna teoria noiosa o economica. È semplice da impostare. Poi lo dimentichi. Non prestare attenzione alle notizie finanziarie. Basta concentrarsi sul fare il maggior numero di soldi che puoi nella tua carriera o nel tuo business, ecco tutto. E ti abbiamo spiegato anche come fare se stai cominciando con poco. Imparerai i vari tipi di azioni

Investindustrial Exits Ducati
by Francois Brochet Karol MisztalIn early 2012, Investindustrial, a European private equity group, publicly announced their intention to sell their 76.7% stake in Ducati Motor Holding S.p.A., an iconic Italian producer of sport performance motorcycles. The decision followed a six-year turnaround during which Ducati returned to profitability and significantly expanded its product line. Investindustrial's team had the following exit alternatives: 1) a trade sale to an automotive buyer; 2) a secondary buyout, partial or complete, by a financial investor; 3) a relisting in Hong Kong. Each option had its pros and cons, but all required a careful valuation of Ducati to maximize the investors' return on their flagship investment.
