Senior Moments: Looking Back, Looking Ahead
by Willard SpiegelmanA moving collection of essays on aging and happinessDrawing on more than six decades' worth of lessons from his storied career as a writer and professor, Willard Spiegelman reflects with candid humor and sophistication on growing old. Senior Moments is a series of discrete essays that, when taken together, constitute the life of a man who, despite Western cultural notions of aging as something to be denied, overcome, and resisted, has continued to relish the simplest of pleasures: reading, looking at art, talking, and indulging in occasional fits of nostalgia while also welcoming what inevitably lies ahead. Spiegelman's expertly crafted book considers, with wisdom and elegance, how to be alert to the joys that brim from unexpected places even as death draws near. Senior Moments is a foray into the felicity and follies that age brings; a consideration of how and what one reads or rereads in late adulthood; the eagerness for, and disappointment in, long-awaited reunions, at which the past comes alive in the present. A clear-eyed book of memories, written in eight searching and courageously honest essays, Senior Moments is guaranteed to stimulate, stir, and restore.

Sensemaking: What Makes Human Intelligence Essential in the Age of the Algorithm
by Christian MadsbjergA FINANCIAL TIMES BUSINESS BOOK OF THE MONTH (APRIL 2017)Humans have become subservient to algorithms. Every day brings a new Moneyball fix - a maths whiz who will crack open an industry with clean fact-based analysis rather than human intuition and experience. As a result, we have stopped thinking. Machines do it for us. Christian Madsbjerg argues that our fixation with data often masks stunning deficiencies, and the risks for humankind are enormous. Blind devotion to number crunching imperils our businesses, our educations, our governments, and our life savings. Too many companies have lost touch with the humanity of their customers, while marginalising workers with arts-based skills. Contrary to popular thinking, Madsbjerg shows how many of today's biggest success stories stem not from 'quant' thinking but from deep, nuanced engagement with culture, language, and history. He calls his method sensemaking. In this landmark book, Madsbjerg lays out five principles for how business leaders, entrepreneurs, and individuals can use it to solve their thorniest problems. He profiles companies using sensemaking to connect with new customers, and takes readers inside the work process of sensemaking 'connoisseurs' like investor George Soros, architect Bjarke Ingels, and others. Both practical and philosophical, Sensemaking is a powerful rejoinder to corporate groupthink and an indispensable resource for leaders and innovators who want to stand out from the pack.

by Nicolas Majluf Nureya AbarcaThis Leadership book is part of the Human Centered Book Trilogy, the 2021 volumes of the Routledge Human Centered Management HCM Series. HCM books are pioneering transformation from the traditional humans-as-a-resource approach of the industrial past, to the humans at the center management and organizational paradigm of the 21st century. HCM is built on the talent and wellbeing of people in the workplace driving work engagement, quality standards, high performance and productivity for long-term organizational sustainability in the global VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) environment.

The book displays a comprehensive framework for the transformation of common individuals into sensible leaders with high capacity to improve organizational culture using Soft Skills to meet critical responsibilities. Sensible leaders are human centered, insightful, prudent, focused on the needs and feelings of followers. They are integral and ethical leaders serving as guides, coaches and mentors, not forcing followers but perceiving clues and responding promptly to solve organizational challenges. They perform honorably in personal and work environments always caring for the common good. This and its two complementary titles Human Centered Organizational Culture: Global Dimensions and Soft Skills for Human Centered Management and Global Sustainability are timely readings for leaders, managers, researchers, acdemics, practitiones, students and the general public working in organizations across industries and sectors wordwide pursuing quality standards, organizational transformation and sustainability.

Sensing Psychic
by Mitchell CoombesThe telephone rings. You rush to answer it. The person you have been thinking about says, 'Hello. ' For some inexplicable reason, you feel compelled to take the long way home from work. Only later you discover a tragic accident would have blocked your usual route home. Someone you haven't seen in years comes to mind. A few days later, you bump into him or her. Everyone is naturally psychic. Perhaps you regularly solve problems in your dreams--or experience 'ah-ha' moments out-of-the blue. Maybe your 'inner voice' guides the decisions you make. Or are you someone who just knows something without knowing why you know it? Perhaps you can recall a time when you had a hunch and trusted it because it felt right. Have sensations like 'butterflies' in your stomach--or the hairs standing up on the back of your neck--ever alerted you to danger? Maybe you've glimpsed the future, heard a voice from Beyond, or acted upon an impulse that has saved your life. Every day people from all walks of life sense the unspoken, read between the lines and experience events that defy logic. Subtle or dramatic, these are all hallmarks of natural psychic ability. In this book , Mitchell Coombes will share with you remarkable real-life stories about extraordinary moments of psychic awakening by everyday people. Astonished parents talk about the amazing psychic gifts of their young children. Pet lovers recall heartbreaking moments when saying goodbye to a much loved pet--only to sense their welcomed return from the spirit world days, months, or even years later. These and many more heartfelt, surprising and profound psychic moments will give you the keys to open the doors for your very own psychic journey. . .
Sensing Spirit
by Mitchell CoombesWith his down-to-earth, friendly manner celebrity psychic Mitchell Coombes provides the reader with an intriguing and illuminating entree into the world of Spirit. Have you ever experienced an uncanny coincidence? Do you wonder about your Spirit Guide? Have you been trying to get in contact with a loved one? Do you need help deciphering signals from Spirit? Since his childhood Mitchell Coombes has been able to see dead people, except he called them 'green people' and considered his gift a normal part of life. In Sensing Spirit he shows how everybody else can make their own psychic abilities part of their everyday lives too. Mitchell shares the funny and heart-warming stories of his life as a psychic medium and reveals the ways that spirits may try and connect with their living loved ones. Most importantly he shows us how to hear, know or see when a spirit is trying to make contact. Sensing Spirit includes many incredible real-life stories - like Maxine who witnessed her daughter Bella sitting up in bed hugging the air right before Maxine received a phone call to say her mother had just died. Before she had a chance to tell Bella the news, Bella asked her if Grandma was going on a holiday because she'd just come and given Bella a hug goodbye. Or like Judy who had a terrifying dream her husband had an accident with a black Mazda and rang to warn him. Her husband laughed it off, until he nearly crashed into a broken-down black Mazda moments later. Mitchell explains how to understand these signs from Spirit as well as discussing psychic phenomena like mysterious orbs, apparitions, electrical disturbances and how to achieve protection from psychic vampires. The book contains the answers to frequently asked psychic questions: 'Can Spirits tell us winning lottery numbers?' 'Do pets have sixth sense?' and 'Do spirits watch us all the time?' He also includes a helpful guide to what to expect when meeting a psychic medium and explores the tools of the trade - crystal balls, tarot cards, psychometry.
Sensitive Is the New Strong: The Power of Empaths in an Increasingly Harsh World
by Anita MoorjaniThe New York Times bestselling author of Dying to Be Me returns with &“a gorgeous and powerful field guide to the empath living in today&’s wild world&” (Laura Berman, PhD, author of Quantum Love) and how they can fully embrace their gifts of intuition and empathy.Empaths not only sense other people&’s emotions, but also absorb them—sometimes to their own disadvantage, often leading to overwhelming sensory overload and feelings of confusion or low self-esteem. Their willingness to help and please others might make them prey to opportunists or cause them to give away more energy than they can afford. But Anita Moorjani argues that it&’s possible to turn this onslaught of emotional burden into a powerful tool. In a time when traits like sensitivity, kindness, and compassion are sorely undervalued, Moorjani helps empaths—whether emerging or acknowledged—navigate obstacles they may face and identify what makes them unique. She teaches them how to claim their true powers as empaths and to be their most authentic selves. &“Sensitive Is the New Strong is a book that provides you with groundbreaking information, tools, and exercises in understanding the challenges faced by empaths. You can learn how to protect your energy and thrive. A definite must-read for empaths and their loved ones&” (Nick Ortner, New York Times bestselling author).
Sensitive Soul: The Unseen Role of Emotion in Extraordinary States
by Michael A. JawerExplores how emotion underlies personality, triggers the development of non-ordinary states and perceptions, and connects all life • Shows how the flow of our emotions shapes individual minds and personalities • Reveals the significant role of emotion in PTSD, alexithymia (not knowing what one is feeling), autism, savantism, synesthesia (overlapping senses), déjà vu, phantom pain, migraines, and extreme empathy • Looks at the emotional lives of animals, demonstrating how life-threatening emergencies can trigger amazing sensitivities and abilities in them Emotion, as it exists within and between people, underpins personality, spirituality, and a range of extraordinary perceptions, conditions, and experiences. These include déjà vu, phantom pain, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and extreme empathy, where people instantaneously feel the physical or emotional pain of another. Many gifted children, those with synesthesia, and people with autism--not to mention highly sensitive people in general--report forms of innate &“knowing&” and even paranormal experiences. In this exploration of the role of emotion in non-ordinary states and abilities, Michael Jawer shows how the flow of our emotions and those of the people around us greatly influences the development of exceptional capacities and sensitivities. Drawing on a range of scientific studies, Jawer explores how 5 remarkable kinds of people--individuals with autism, synesthesia, savantism, child prodigies, and children who remember past lives--are linked through the biology of emotion and how a hidden emotional intensity underlies both autism and anomalous perception. He examines the psychological concept of thin and thick boundaries and how those with thin boundaries--those who are more environmentally sensitive--have a greater predisposition toward empathy, synesthesia, psi abilities, and extraordinary states of perception. Sharing extraordinary examples, the author explores how strong emotion may endure through time and space, possibly even after death. He also looks at the emotional lives of animals, our soulful connections with them, and how life-threatening emergencies can trigger amazing sensitivities and abilities in our fellow creatures. Revealing the unseen role of emotion in mind and personality, Jawer shows that emotion is the binding force that connects us with one another, with all of life, and with nature itself.

Sensitive: The Power of Feeling in a World That Doesn't
by Hannah WalkerHannah Walker is a very sensitive person, along with at least a fifth of the population. Like many, she was conditioned to believe this was a weakness and a trait that she should try and overcome. When she had her first child and realised that her little girl was sensitive too, Hannah decided to find out whether sensitivity might in fact be a positive trait. Her question led to some fascinating answers and ongoing research that suggests survival and thriving is not only limited to the fittest, but to the sensitive.If you are someone, or know someone who sat at the edge of the party as a child, or waits to be sure about what you want to say only to never get a word in, or jumps at loud noises, or worries that you cry so easily at a beautiful piece of art, or that you just seem to feel so much (too much), this book reveals the strengths in these traits and also how we need to embrace them rather than be embarrassed by them. People who are highly sensitive are highly caring, they are observant and notice new ways of doing things in difficult circumstances, they are able to follow their gut instincts (a real, scientific thing), they bring teams together, they listen well and are far more resilient than we've often been led to believe. The problem is that in today's noisy world, they often suffer from lower self-esteem and confidence levels.Like Susan Cain's Quiet, which showed the power of introverts in an extrovert world, Sensitive overturns old cliches and stereotypes and suggests a new way of looking at a trait that people so often feel ashamed of but that has so much untapped potential.
