Talent wins : the new playbook for putting people first / by Charan, Ram,author.; Barton, Dominic,author.; Carey, Dennis C.,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Most executives today recognize the competitive advantage of human capital, and yet the talent practices their organizations use are stuck in the twentieth century. Typical HR talent-planning processes (which are too expensive and take too long to implement) are designed for predictable environments, traditional ways of getting work done, and organizations where "lines and boxes" still define how people are managed. As work and organizations have become more fluid--and business strategy is no longer about planning years out but about sensing and seizing new opportunities and adapting to a constantly changing environment--companies must deploy talent in new ways to remain competitive. Written for CEOs and leaders across the organization, Talent Rules provides a much-needed framework for transforming how companies acquire, manage, and deploy talent--for today's agile, digital, analytical, technologically driven strategic environment--and for creating the HR function the business needs. With examples of companies that are well along the path of reinventing their approaches to talent, such as Amgen, AT&T, BlackRock, GE, Haier, J&J, and PepsiCo, as well as the juggernauts and the start-ups of Silicon Valley, this book provides leaders with a seven-part plan for: Integrating talent and capital Making talent drive strategy Designing and redesigning the work of the organization Scaling up individual talent Creating an M&A strategy for talent Reinventing the role of HR Living the talent agenda Providing deep, expert insight and advice for what needs to change and how to change it, Talent Rules is the definitive book for reimagining and creating the talent-driven organization.--

Heal your mind : your prescription for wholeness through medicine, affirmations, and intuition / by Schulz, Mona Lisa,author.; Hay, Louise L.,author.;
"Many of us grapple with how to stay happy, calm, and focused in a world that seems to get more complex by the minute. How do we keep our wits about us, our mood stable, and our memory intact when our brains and bodies are bombarded with information and influences from every side? This one-of-a-kind resource combines cutting-edge science with compassion and wisdom to offer answers we can really use. Heal Your Mind continues the three-pronged healing approach that Dr. Mona Lisa Schulz and Louise Hay pioneered together in All Is Well: Heal Your Body with Medicine, Affirmations, and Intuition. Here, it's applied to aspects of the mind ranging from depression, anxiety, and addiction to memory, learning, and even mystical states. You'll learn what's going on in your brain and body when: You feel sad, angry, or panicked; An addictive substance or behavior has hold of you; You have trouble focusing, reading, or remembering · A past trauma is clouding your mind in the present; An emotional state is a clue to a physical ailment ; And more And in each chapter, you'll get a "virtual healing experience" through case studies in the All Is Well Clinic, where Dr. Mona Lisa uses medical intuition to pinpoint issues in a wide range of prototypical client histories and she and Louise offer solutions and affirmations to help restore well-being. Today, the "pill-for-every-ill" approach is so prevalent that we may think our minds and bodies need an endless array of expensive, ever-changing pharmaceutical interventions. In truth, medicines are just one approach to healing the mind; nutritional supplements give us another important way to support mind-body health; and affirmations, as well as various forms of therapy, can restore us to balance by changing the way we think. Heal Your Mind puts all these tools at your disposal to help you choose your own path toward wholeness"--
