So You've Lost a Limb: D. A. Grady's Nonfiction, Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 161min

In early spring of 2006, beloved From Gents' Pens author D. A. Grady's life changed forever when his Chevy pickup connected with a metal guard rail on highway US 290, between Austin and Houston. When EMTs arrived on the scene and placed him into their Medevac helicopter, his left leg from below the knee remained behind in his truck, still in his boot. Faced with such issues as dealing with a prosthesis, relearning how to walk, and handling phantom pain, he brought to the situation the same courage, determination and ingenuity that had held him in good stead through a long life. Since then, he has counseled amputees ranging from Wounded Warriors to fellow amputees he met on the street. Now he has put his experiences, solutions, and suggestions into words that can be passed onto others who can benefit from his experiences, in a uniquely conversational style that allows this fact-filled offering to seem as if it's a conversation among friends. If you're an amputee yourself, a caregiver of an amputee, or a friend of one, the information contained in this book will be helpful to you as you chart your new course through the growing world of amputeeism. ungekürzt.

The Zen of Listening: Mindful Communication in the Age of Distraction , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 435min

TV, radio, traffic, telephones, pagers - our minds are bombarded daily by constant noise and clutter. No wonder so many people find it increasingly difficult to listen and comprehend. Simple pieces of information such as names go "In one ear and out the other." Poor listening may have tragic consequences, such as the Challenger disaster and the Potomac River crash of 1982, or it can result in smaller tragedies such as lost promotions, stalled marriages, and troubled children. Rebecca Shafir assures us we can transform every aspect of our lives, simply by relearning how to listen. The Zen of Listening is grounded in the Zen concept of mindfulness, a simple yet profound way of learning how to filter our distractions and be totally in the present. Rather than a list of tricks, this audiobook is an all-encompassing approach allowing you to transform your life. Listeners will be amazed at how simply learning to focus intently on a speaker improves the relationship, increases attention span, and helps develop negotiating skills. Learn the great barricades of misunderstanding, find out how to listen to yourself, and discover how to listen under stress and boost your memory. This is a fun and practical guide filled with simple strategies to use immediately to enjoy our personal and professional lives to the fullest. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rebecca Z.

Unleashing the Innovators: How Mature Companies Find New Life with Startups , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 413min

Today's established companies must find new ways to reignite their entrepreneurial DNA and jump-start revenues - or risk losing their way. By working with startup companies, says Jim Stengel, renowned consultant to Fortune 500 companies and the former global marketing officer for Procter & Gamble, legacy companies can renew themselves: by acquiring new technology and creating new business lines, relearning the need for speed, sparking innovation, and learning from failures. At P&G Stengel saw the importance of establishing partnerships with the startup world in order to learn how to better innovate. Relying on extensive interviews with innovation leaders at enterprise companies and startups, Stengel's Unleashing the Innovators takes listeners inside such storied companies as GE and Wells Fargo, IBM and Target, Motorola Solutions and Toyota to see what they are learning from their alliances with entrepreneurs. Stengel also explores how even 20- and 30-year-old "startups" like Amazon, Google, and Facebook can reinvent themselves - and what managers at legacy companies everywhere can learn from them. Drawing on a specially commissioned global study of over 200 established corporations and startups conducted by research consultancy OgilvyRED, Stengel found that companies with successful startup partnerships are three times more likely to change their cultures to be more innovative. Filled with in-depth stories from the front lines of today's most forward-looking companies, Unleashing the Innovators shows how companies of all sizes can better navigate today's changing landscape, accelerate innovation, increase revenues, and improve their customer relationships. ungekürzt.

Hyper-Learning: How to Adapt to the Speed of Change , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 537min

“Ed Hess’s Hyper-Learning is uniquely practical and is the essential starting point for charting new ways of thinking, living, working, leading, and being fulfilled in our new world.” (Gary Roughead, admiral, US Navy (retired), former chief of naval operations)The digital age will raise the question of how we humans will stay relevant in the workplace. To stay relevant, we have to be able to excel cognitively, behaviorally, and emotionally in ways that technology can’t.Professor Ed Hess believes that requires us to become hyper-learners: continuously learning, unlearning, and relearning at the speed of change. To do that, we have to overcome our reflexive ways of being: seeking confirmation of what we believe, emotionally defending our beliefs and our ego, and seeking cohesiveness of our mental models. Hyper-learning requires a new way of being and a radical new way of working. In part one of this how-to guide, Hess takes a practical workbook approach and helps listeners create their hyper-learning mindset, choose and embrace their needed hyper-learning behaviors, and adopt their daily hyper-learning practices. In part two, Hess focuses on how to humanize the workplace to optimize hyper-learning. Featuring case studies of three business leaders and two public companies, this book shows how to harness the power of human emotions, choices, and behaviors to enable the highest levels of human cognitive, emotional, and behavioral performance - individually and organizationally. ungekürzt.

Addicted to Outrage , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 930min

America is addicted to hatred, we're at the height of a 20-year bender, and we need an intervention. In Addicted to Outrage, New York Times best-selling author Glenn Beck addresses how America has become more and more divided - both politically and socially. Americans are now less accepting, less forgiving, and have lost faith in many of the country's signature ideals. They are quick to point a judgmental finger at the opposing party, are unwilling to doubt their own ideologies, and refuse to have any self-awareness whatsoever. Beck states that this current downward spiral will ultimately lead to the destruction of everything America has fought so hard to preserve. This is not simply a Republican problem. This is not simply a Democrat problem. This is everyone's burden, and we need to think like recovering addicts and change. Mirroring the 12 Step program, Beck outlines the actions that Americans must follow in order to prevent a farther decline down this current path of hostile bitterness. Drawing from his own life experiences and including relevant examples for each step, he is able to lead the reader to a more hopeful, happy future. From families who learned to forgive killers to relearning to believe in something greater than ourselves to understanding the importance of humility, each chapter encourages self-reflection and growth. Addicted to Outrage is more than one of Glenn Beck's old political books. It is a necessary guide for how Americans, right and left, must change to survive. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Photoshop: Photo Manipulation Techniques to Improve Your Pictures to World-Class , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 69min

Do you want to increase the quality of your pictures and make them world-class? Are other Photoshop tutorials too complicated? Then read below. Photoshop is of great importance to engineers, bloggers, designers, artists and promotors in the digital world. Every item of value needs a quality picture to go with it. Everyone needs a piece of Photoshop. However, most of the current manuals on Photoshop are either a 600-page encyclopedia or poorly written blog posts that are impossible to replicate. This audiobook can be used for multiple Photoshop versions. In reality, the developers at Adobe cannot have their consumers constantly relearning software. Each version has implemented changes, but rarely is a tool taken out of the software in the same process. Even rarer still is a basic tool removed, which will be the types of tools we review here. Therefore, the version doesn't really matter so long as the version is between CS5 and up. CS4 and below may be lacking some of the tools added into CS5. Additionally, even if you decide to use a free open-source software like Gimp later down the road, you can bring what you learn from this software over to that software. The symbols used to represent the tools may change between software, but you will find that many of the tools are the same. This is because the tools are based in art and art techniques, which rarely change over time, but do occasionally improve. This allows many artists to pick up different software and become acquainted with that software rather quickly. Here is a preview of what you'll learn: History of Photoshop Basic layout Different file formats Initial setup for Photoshop ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dave Wright.
