9 Things a Leader Must Do
by Henry CloudWhy do some leaders get and accomplish what they want as a matter of routine, while others seem to regularly experience frustration and setbacks? Why do some leaders achieve their goals and reach new heights, while others barely "hang in there" and survive? Based on his groundbreaking psychological study of the ways that successful individuals think and behave, Dr. Henry Cloud presents a simple yet profound roadmap to help leaders-and those who want to become leaders-arrive at greater levels of personal growth and corporate influence than they previously thought were possible. The good news for all of us is that leadership success is not limited to vague notions of "charisma" nor traditional advantages like graduate degrees and connections, but much more to a pattern of thinking and moving forward that learns from mistakes and stays focused on goals.

by Henry CloudBasado en un innovador estudio psicológico sobre las maneras en que piensan y viven los individuos exitosos, el Dr. Henry Cloud ofrece un mapa simple pero profundo para ayudar tanto a los líderes como a aquellos que desean serlo a llegar a niveles de crecimiento e influencia corporativa mayores a los que creyeron posible. Las buenas noticias para todos es que el éxito en el liderazgo no está limitado a las nociones vagas sobre el carisma, las ventajas tradicionales de los grados escolares o las conexiones, sino está atado a un patrón de pensamiento y movimiento de avance que aprende de los errores y se enfoca en determinadas metas.
9-Object-Model FMEA: Ein Denkmodell zur Erstellung von technischen Risikoanalysen
by Pier Luigi BelcaroIst es möglich, FMEA auf wissenschaftliche Weise anzugehen und ein Denkmodell – präzise und stringent – zu entwickeln, auf dessen solider, formaler Basis operative Vorgehensweisen für ebenso präzise und stringente FMEAs erarbeitet werden können?

Die auf dem Modell basierenden Vorgehensweisen (Design- und Prozess-FMEA) sowie deren logische Zusammensetzung werden leicht verständlich vermittelt. Abschließend wird ein mathematisches Modell zur objektiven Bewertung der Risikoparameter "Auftreten" und "Entdeckung" abgebildet, wobei gezielt formulierte Vektorindikatoren statt der klassischen Bewertungstabellen zugrunde liegen. Die gesamte Darstellung wird durch die FMEA-Software APIS-IQ unterstützt.
90 Church: Inside America's Notorious First Narcotics Squad
by Dean UnkeferMAD MEN MEETS THE WIRE IN THIS GRIPPING TRUE-CRIME MEMOIR BY A FORMER AGENT AT THE FEDERAL BUREAU OF NARCOTICS IN 1960s NEW YORKBefore Nixon famously declared a "war on drugs," there was the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. New York City in the mid-1960s: The war in Vietnam was on the nation's tongue—but so is something else. Clandestine and chaotic, but equally ruthless, the agents of the Bureau were feared by the Mafia, dealers, pimps, prostitutes—anyone who did his or her business on the streets. With few rules and almost no oversight, the battle-hardened agents of the bureau were often more vicious than the criminals they chased. Agent Dean Unkefer was a naive kid with notions of justice and fair play when he joined up. But all that quickly changes once he gets thrown into the lion's den of 90 Church, the headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, where he is shocked to see the agents he revered are often more like thugs than lawmen. When he finally gets the chance to prove his mettle by going undercover in the field, the lines become increasingly blurred. As he spirals into the hell of addiction and watches his life become a complex balancing act of lies and half-truths, he begins to wonder what side he is really on. 90 Church is both the unbelievable memoir of one man's confrontation with the dark corners of the human experience and a fascinating window into a little-known time in American history. Learn the story of the agents who make the DEA look like choirboys.

935 Lies: The Future of Truth and the Decline of America's Moral Integrity
by Charles LewisFacts are and must be the coin of the realm in a democracy, for government OC of the people, by the people and for the people, OCO requires and assumes to some extent an informed citizenry. Unfortunately, for citizens in the United States and throughout the world, distinguishing between fact and fiction has always been a formidable challenge, often with real life and death consequences. But now it is more difficult and confusing than ever. The Internet Age makes comment indistinguishable from fact, and erodes authority. It is liberating but annihilating at the same time. For those wielding power, whether in the private or the public sector, the increasingly sophisticated control of information is regarded as utterly essential to achieving success. Internal information is severely limited, including calendars, memoranda, phone logs and emails. History is sculpted by its absence. Often those in power strictly control the flow of information, corroding and corrupting its content, of course, using newspapers, radio, television and other mass means of communication to carefully consolidate their authority and cover their crimes in a thick veneer of fervent racialism or nationalism. And always with the specter of some kind of imminent public threat, what Hannah Arendt called OCyobjective enemies. OCOOCO An epiphanic, public comment about the Bush OC war on terrorOCO years was made by an unidentified White House official revealing how information is managed and how the news media and the public itself are regarded by those in power: OC You journalists live] OC in what we call the reality-based community. But] thatOCOs not the way the world really works anymore. WeOCOre an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality . . . weOCOre historyOCOs actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do. OCO And yet, as aggressive as the Republican Bush administration was in attempting to define reality, the subsequent, Democratic Obama administration may be more so. Into the battle for truth steps Charles Lewis, a pioneer of journalistic objectivity. His book looks at the various ways in which truth can be manipulated and distorted by governments, corporations, even lone individuals. He shows how truth is often distorted or diminished by delay: truth "in time" can save terrible erroneous choices. In part a history of communication in America, a cri de coeur for the principles and practice of objective reporting, and a journey into several notably labyrinths of deception, "935 Lies" is a valorous search for honesty in an age of casual, sometimes malevolent distortion of the facts.
