Interviewology: The New Science of Interviewing
by Anna Papalia“A must-read for seasoned and new managers alike.” —Johnny C. Taylor Jr., SHRM-SCP, CEO of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM)A groundbreaking guide to mastering the job interview, offering proven advice and techniques to discover your unique interview style that is key to interviewing better—for those on either side of the table.Conventional interviewing advice doesn’t work. That’s what Anna Papalia learned through years of experience as an HR professional, consultant for Fortune 500 companies, and teacher at the Fox School of Business. None of the existing tools work for one simple reason: they don’t get to the heart of what actually makes a great interview—self-awareness. At its core, an interview is a set of questions about you. If you don’t know yourself, you won’t do well.Determined to make the process better, more inclusive, and less obscure, Anna spent years researching how people interview and uncovered a new science to interviewing, rooted in the finding that there are four main styles people exhibit in an interview: you can be a Charmer, a Challenger, an Examiner, or a Harmonizer. Your style influences how you view and approach interviews, and ultimately how you perform in them. In Interviewology, Anna teaches you how to identify your individual style (and that of who you are interviewing with) and offers pragmatic tips for using this knowledge to nail your next interview.Packed with wisdom, Interviewology offers clarity and a dynamic, scientifically validated approach that challenges everything you thought you knew about interviewing, providing unique insight into the process, debunking some of the most common myths, and explaining how you can perform better, whether you’re applying for the job or looking for the right candidate.Going beyond generic advice that isn’t useful in the real world—such as memorizing rote answers or strict guidelines—Interviewology is a revolutionary approach that focuses on self-awareness—and how to develop it—to help everyone master their own unique interview style. It’s about the power of knowing yourself and how that insight can lead to a more successful career and life.

Intimidad: La confianza en uno mismo y en otro (Claves para una nueva forma de vivir #Volumen)
by OshoEl camino para llegar a la auténtica fuente de nuestra capacidad para alcanzar la intimidad. La capacidad para la verdadera intimidad se basa, por encima de todo, en la confianza en uno mismo y en el valor que cada cual tiene como ser humano y único. Y, según Osho, la forma de desarrollarla consiste en ser absolutamente honrados con nosotros mismos sobre quiénes somos, sin juicios de valor y sin el deseo de cambiarnos para encajar en los ideales de otras personas. Por desgracia, la mayoría de nosotros vivimos inmersos en la ilusión de que la fuente de la intimidad se encuentra en nuestra relación con un «otro» especial en nuestra vida, y si no hemos desarrollado la suficiente confianza en nosotros mismos, vamos en busca de ese otro especial en el que depositamos la esperanza de recibirla. Osho nos indica el camino para llegar a la auténtica fuente de nuestra capacidad para alcanzar la intimidad, no solo en las relaciones amorosas, sino también en toda la comunidad de seres del planeta. Así, la intimidad no es algo que podamos encontrar fuera de nosotros mismos, sino una capacidad que descubrimos cuando logramos saber quiénes somos y aprendemos a confiar en ello.

Into the Abyss: A neuropsychiatrist's notes on troubled minds
by Prof. Anthony DavidWe cannot know how to fix a problem until we understand its causes. But even for some of the most common mental health problems, specialists argue over whether the answers lie in the person&’s biology, their psychology or their circumstances. As a cognitive neuropsychiatrist, Anthony David brings together many fields of enquiry, from social and cognitive psychology to neurology. The key for each patient might be anything from a traumatic memory to a chemical imbalance, an unhealthy way of thinking or a hidden tumour. Patrick believes he is dead. Jennifer's schizophrenia medication helped with her voices but did it cause Parkinson&’s? Emma is in a coma – or is she just refusing to respond? Drawing from Professor David&’s career as a clinician and academic, these fascinating case studies reveal the unique complexity of the human mind, stretching the limits of our understanding.
Into the Daylight
by Calvin MorrisseauThis book is an account of the personal and collective struggles of First Nations people and how the principles which held traditional societies together can be used today to promote harmonious and cooperative relationships by both aboriginals and non-aboriginals. Calvin Morrisseau provides in it the fundamentals for healing that he has learned over twenty years through his training in counselling and addiction studies; his education in traditional practices by aboriginal elders, healers, and teachers; and his personal recovery from alcoholism, drug addiction, abuse, and the effects of assimilation, racism and poverty.The model of healing Morrisseau advocates is simple, insightful, and based on the values that allowed aboriginal people to live in accord with each other in the past. His approach centres on people accepting responsibility and making choices that give them the freedom required to enter into recovery by recapturing their sense of harmony, cooperation, sharing, balance and spirituality. The deepest healing takes place on a spiritual level. Morrisseau describes an interdependent system of individual, family, and community in which needs, desires, values, and purpose are communicated, and the responsibility to ensure everyone has an opportunity to grow to their full potential is shared. The book is unique in that it offers guidance on ways in which communities can heal.While the book was written for people who work with aboriginal people, the wholistic approach Morrisseau uses can benefit anyone. The healing model can be used by an individual seeking to heal himself, by a professional as a tool for assessment and treatment, and by a community in crisis.

Into the Heart of Mindfulness: Finding a Way of Well-being
by Ed HalliwellPlagued by anxiety and depression for much of his twenties and early thirties, Ed Halliwell frantically searched for ways to understand and relieve his distress. Eventually he stumbled on meditation and Buddhism, and discovered a path that was different from the other medical, psychological and spiritual cures he had tried. That path was mindfulness and the deeper he went into the practice the more it transformed his life, easing his depression and helping him see each moment as precious. A one-time editor for FHM magazine, Ed's life has changed radically - he now teaches mindfulness to others.In this book, Ed explores how mindfulness can help us see and transform our unhelpful biases and habits, enable us to live more at peace with stress and uncertainty, cultivate cheerfulness and compassion, and help us to find our life's calling - if we are willing to journey to the heart of the practice. Offering his own experiences as inspiration, Ed emphasises that mindfulness training is a lifelong path and complete way of being rather than just a short course or quick fix. With practical advice and refreshing candour, he explores how working with the realities of our minds, bodies and day-to-day existence - rather than striving for positive results - can, paradoxically, help us rediscover a richly nourishing, deeply-textured life.

Into the Rip: How the Australian Way of Risk Made My Family Stronger, Happier ... and Less American
by Damien CaveWhen Damien Cave brought his young family to Sydney to set up the New York Times&’ Australian Bureau, they encountered the local pursuits of Nippers and surfing – and a completely different approach to risk that changed the way they lived their lives. Damien Cave has always been fascinated by risk. Having covered the war in Iraq and moved to Mexico City with two babies in nappies, he and his wife Diana thought they understood something about the subject. But when they arrived in Sydney so that Cave could establish The New York Times&’s Australia Bureau, life near the ocean confronted them with new ideas and questions, at odds with their American mindset that risk was a matter of individual choices. Surf-lifesaving and Nippers showed that perhaps it could be managed together, by communities. And instead of being either eliminated or romanticised, it might instead be respected and even embraced. And so Cave set out to understand how our current attitude to risk developed – and why it&’s not necessarily good for us.Into the Rip is partly the story of this New York family learning to live better by living with the sea and it is partly the story of how humans manage the idea of risk. Interviewing experts and everyday heroes, Cave asks critical questions like: Is safety overrated? Why do we miscalculate risk so often and how can we improve? Is it selfish to take risks or can more exposure make for stronger families, citizens and nations? And how do we factor in legitimate fears and major disasters like Cave has covered in his time here: the Black Summer fires; the Christchurch massacre; and, of course, Covid? The result is Grit meets Phosphorescence and Any Ordinary Day – a book that will change the way you and your family think about facing the world&’s hazards. &‘The inspiring, hilarious story of how Damien Cave became a life-saver – only to find that the life he saved was his own.&’ Richard Glover 'It often takes a stranger&’s eyes to see our own country clearly. By plunging into the Sydney surf, Damien Cave peered into the Australian soul. What he found there – courage, grit, community – is welcome news when our lives and our core values have never seemed so precarious.' Geraldine Brooks &‘Into the Rip is a beautiful tale of one family trying to figure things out – and, at the same time, a brilliant synthesis of a century of psychological science on how all of us can learn to dive headfirst into challenges, grow and adapt, and ultimately do well in life.&’ Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author of Grit 'Cave&’s viewfinder – the notion of risk – is perfect for our times.' Malcolm Knox &‘A big-hearted account of a wild and wonderful ride into a new culture and a new way to live.&’ Anna Funder
Into the Storm: Lessons in Teamwork from the Treacherous Sydney to Hobart Ocean Race
by Dennis N.T. Perkins Jillian B. MurphyThe Sydney Hobart Yacht Race is among the most demanding sailing competitions in the world. Unpredictable seas make the 628-nautical-mile course grueling under the best conditions, but the 1998 race proved to be the most perilous to date when a sudden and violent storm struck. Winds gusted over 100 mph and monstrous 80-foot waves towered over boat masts. Six sailors perished and another 55 were saved in what became the largest search and rescue operation in Australias history. In the face of turmoil and tragedy, a crew of amateur sailors piloted their tiny vessel, the AFR Midnight Rambler, not only to the finish but to overall victory. While bigger, better-equipped yachts attempted to maneuver around the storm, Ed Psaltis and his crew made the daring decision to head directly into its path. Their triumph perhaps even their survival owes itself to an extraordinary level of teamwork: an alchemy of cooperation, trust, planning, and execution. Into the Storm chronicles their nearly four-day ordeal and draws parallels to the world of business, revealing 10 critical strategies for teamwork at the edge. Illustrated with examples from the story and compelling case studies, the book sheds light on what teams need to do to succeed in tough times. Finally, Into the Storm provides resources and tools to support teams as they navigate the chaotic seas of business today.

Intoxicados por la fe: Cómo ser libres de una religión tóxica y vivir una espiritualidad feliz
by Bernardo StamateasA través de innumerables ejemplos tomados de experiencias reales, el autor de los best sellers Gente tóxica y Autoboicot analiza cómo es la fe que lastima, pero también arroja luz sobre el poder que vuelve a la fe sana. «Stamateas nos habla en este libro de lo tóxico de la religiosidad opresiva, amedrentadora, que no libera sino que achicharra, que no está basada en el amor sino en el temor. Y nos insta a albergar en nuestro interior a un Dios que nos ama, que aspira a que seamos lo que debemos ser y no lo que cierta religiosidad burocrática y formalista pretende que seamos».Pacho O'Donnell (Escritor, historiador, médico) «Stamateas es un hombre valioso porque es un hombre de fe que puede al mismo tiempo ser abierto y moderno. En su visión, la fe no implica una posición temerosa y conservadora, todo lo contrario. El suyo no es un sistema que niegue al individuo ni el placer, no aboga por una mirada retrógrada y triste. Su fe es crecimiento y ganas de vivir».Alejandro Rozitchner (Filósofo, escritor) «La fe define el conjunto de creencias de una persona. Por eso, si queremos saber el enfoque de vida de alguien, le preguntamos: "¿Qué fe profesas?" Bernardo Stamateas explica de una manera clara y práctica el daño que las religiones han provocado a la fe auténtica».Lucas Márquez F. (Pastor) «Bernardo Stamateas nos propone asumir que la fe puede ser tanto un camino de redención de sentido como un camino en el que se pierde todo sentido, que puede llevarnos a quedar atrapados en la opresión de entregar por determinadas creencias nuestra propia autonomía y libertad espiritual».Sergio Bergman (Rabino)
Intrinsic: A manifesto to reignite our inner drive
by Sharath Jeevan***AN INSPIRATIONAL MANIFESTO FOR RE-IGNITING OUR PASSION FOR LIFE AND OUR INNER DRIVE FROM SHARATH JEEVAN, A LEADING EXPERT ON MOTIVATION. 'An essential guide for re-discovering our motivation and for living more fulfilling lives.' NIR EYAL, author of Indistractable 'Intrinsic provides a way out of the malaise many of us have been feeling. Essential reading.' JONAH BERGER, author of Contagious'A thoughtful and inspiring book. Readers should rush to embrace the lessons of Intrinsic.' DAN HEATH, co-author of SwitchWe are in a motivational mess today. Many of us feel like we are going through the motions - as workers, managers, spouses and partners, parents and citizens. We feel jaded and unhappy with the organizations we are part of, whether that's the company we work for or our child's school. And some of us feel deeply alienated from the wider societies in which we live, particularly in the face of vast social problems - from climate change to our increasingly 'winner takes all' world.But life doesn't need to be this way. Motivation thinking holds the key to this promise. Intrinsic uses motivation thinking not just to accurately diagnose these problems, but to find solutions. As a leading expert on motivation, Sharath Jeevan helps us see how we can achieve more lasting fulfilment and success in our work, careers, relationships, parenting, and as citizens. Jeevan applies the concepts of Purpose (how what we do helps others), Autonomy (our ability to positively change things) and Mastery (our sense of continually getting better) to help us see our motivation in these key life areas in a radically new light.Jeevan takes us on a journey around the world to find practical and inspirational answers to solving our motivational crisis, harnessing ground-breaking research, from psychology and economics to philosophy and behavioural science. Intrinsic shows us how we can fall back in love with our lives, and create the lives we want.
