Ettie is afraid of the dark. Every night without fail her Mummy calls, #39;Time for bed, Ettie! #39; The curtains pull shut, her bedside light blinks out and Ettie is surrounded by the deep inky cloak of the dark… … Until one night, the bright moon shines through a crack in her curtains. Cautiously, Ettie reaches out a hand to touch the light and is surprised to find that it leaves a glittering mark on her hands. Overcome with curiosity and joy, Ettie dances around her room, drawing with this magical beam of moonlight. She pulls open her curtains and begins to connect the stars in the sky as if they were dots. A moon bear slowly appears in the sky, and when she connects the very last dot, he bursts into life, standing in Ettie’s very own bedroom. The bear and Ettie begin to play and explore Ettie’s room. But when Ettie switches on her torch, the bear hides away in fear. Together, Ettie and the moon bear help each other face their fears. One is afraid of the dark and the other is afraid of the light.

Social Business Imperative, The - Clara Shih
The power of Clara s book is that it highlights not only social media practices but fundamental business practices and how company leaders need to entirely rethink customer engagement models. The implications for every business-regardless of industry or geography-of today s social, connected consumer cannot be overstated. This book provides a powerful vision and a compelling call to action for company leaders everywhere. -Ted Mathas, Chairman and CEO, New York Life Social media is now the dominant online activity and drives more website traffic than online search. The implications for businesses are as profound as the rise of Google fifteen years ago. Delegating this opportunity to a social media team is not enough-today s leaders must personally grasp the tectonic changes arising from today s social, always-connected customer, and must re-architect business practices and models accordingly. In The Social Business Imperative, Silicon Valley entrepreneur and renowned thought leader Clara Shih identifies powerful new opportunities created by social media across the entire customer lifecycle. The functional breadth of this book is critical for today s leaders, who must deliver a consistent experience across every brand touchpoint, from marketing to sales to customer service, online to offline, because that is what the customer expects. This guide is a must-read for all professionals-from boards of directors to front-line sales managers, and from chief marketing officers to recruiting, IT, and compliance directors-who need to understand the digital transformation taking place not only in their own department but in all departments. Only with this broader understanding can functional leaders effectively collaborate on delivering a cohesive customer experience spanning previous organizational silos. Going far beyond her global best-seller The Facebook Era, Clara offers unprecedented insights into why and how traditional organizations must re-imagine their existing business processes to capture the digital last mile across social media, mobile messaging apps, the Internet of Everything, and the collaborative economy. Drawing on her immense experience helping Fortune 500 companies operationalize digital transformation to drive measurable uplift in sales and loyalty, Shih also presents powerful new case studies spanning multiple industries and companies from Wells Fargo to Warby Parker.

Also, and maybe most crucially, Ruefle’s work is never once stuffy or overdone: she writes this stuff with a level of seriousness-as-play that’s vital and welcome, that doesn’t make writing poetry sound anything but wild, strange, life-enlargening fun. -The Kenyon ReviewProfound, unpredictable, charming, and outright funny...These informal talks have far more staying power and verve than most of their kind.

Poznáš to z polibků - Julia Quinnová - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Gareth St. Clair je v pěkné bryndě. Otec ho připravil o dědictví a jemu zbyl pouze starý rodinný deník, který může ukrývat tajemství z jeho minulosti a klíč k budoucnosti. Bohužel je psaný v italštině, z níž Gareth neumí ani slovo. Hyacinth Bridgertonová je dívka, které je podle Garetha lepší se vyhnout, umí ale italsky. Když se tihle dva náhodou setkají, Gareth Hyacint přiměje, aby mu slíbila, že deník přeloží. Jak se tak ponořují do tajemného textu, zjišťují, že odpovědi nenajdou v deníku, nýbrž jeden v druhém. A že nic není tak prosté – nebo tak složité – jako jediný, dokonalý polibek. „Julia Quinnová je bezesporu naší současnou Jane Austenovou.“ - Jill Barnettová „Jednoduše úchvatné, plné šarmu, humoru a vtipu.“ - Kirkus Reviews „Quinnová je… mistryní románů. Vymyslela rodinu tak sympatickou a přitažlivou, společnost tak živou a poutavou, že bychom si nejraději vlezli do knihy a všechny poznali.“ - NPR Book BESTSELLEROVÁ AUTORKA ŽEBRÍCKU THE NEW YORK TIMES!

Bridgerton: The Duke and I (Bridgertons Book 1) - Julia Quinnová
In the ballrooms and drawing rooms of Regency London, rules abound. From their earliest days, children of aristocrats learn how to address an earl and curtsey before a prince - while other dictates of the ton are unspoken yet universally understood. A proper duke should be imperious and aloof. A young, marriageable lady should be amiable . . . but not too amiable. Daphne Bridgerton has always failed at the latter. The fourth of eight siblings in her close-knit family, she has formed friendships with the most eligible young men in London. Everyone likes Daphne for her kindness and wit. But no one truly desires her. She is simply too deuced honest for that, too unwilling to play the romantic games that captivate gentlemen. Amiability is not a characteristic shared by Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings. Recently returned to England from abroad, he intends to shun both marriage and society - just as his callous father shunned Simon throughout his painful childhood. Yet an encounter with his best friend s sister offers another option. If Daphne agrees to a fake courtship, Simon can deter the mamas who parade their daughters before him. Daphne, meanwhile, will see her prospects and her reputation soar. The plan works like a charm-at first. But amid the glittering, gossipy, cut-throat world of London s elite, there is only one certainty: love ignores every rule . . .

Bridgertonovi 3: Nevhodný návrh - Julia Quinnová - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Sophii Beckettové se nikdy ani nesnilo, že se jí podaří vklouznout na vyhlášený maškarní ples lady Bridgertonové, natož se tam seznámit s krásným princem . Přestože je dcerou hraběte, zlá nevlastní matka ji odsoudila do role služebné. Teď se však Sophie v náruči šaramantního a pohledného Benedicta Bridgertona cítí jako princezna. Bohužel s vědomím, že až odbije půlnoc, kouzlo vyprchá... Citace: „Toužíte po romantickém vztahu?“ Prudce zčervenala. „To je ovšem velmi osobní otázka, nemyslíte?“ Benedict pokrčil rameny a chystal se prohodit něco jako „za pokus to stálo“. Zatímco se jí však díval do obličeje, přičemž jí tváře půvabně zrůžověly a sklopila oči do klína, stalo se něco zvláštního. Uvědomil si, že ji chce. Skutečně a doopravdy ji chce. Proč ho to tak překvapilo? Samozřejmě že ji chce. Je to vitální muž a jako takový nemůže strávit dlouhou dobu v blízkosti tak svůdné a roztomilé ženy, jako je Sophie, aniž by po ní nezatoužil. Chtěl, nijak náruživě ani naléhavě, polovinu žen, které potkal. Ale v tuto chvíli, s touto ženou, to začalo být naléhavé.

Audiokniha: Další audiokniha z oblíbené série o Bridgertonových. Colina Bridgertona už unavovalo, že ho lidé považují pouze za okouzlujícího hejska. A nejvíc mu vadilo, že všichni hltali klepy z pera lady Whistledownové, která se o něm zmiňovala snad v každém ze svých sloupků. Po návratu z ciziny však zjistil, že se mnohé změnilo – především jeho stará dobrá kamarádka Penelope. Jaká tajemství můžou skrývat jeden obyčejný floutek a dívka, kterou už každý považuje za starou pannu? A mohou mít vůbec něco společného? „Ne, vyslechni mě.“ Obrátil se k ní a v tu chvíli se ho zmocnil pocit, že by nedokázal odtrhnout oči od jejích, ani kdyby se dům kolem nich zřítil. „Předpokládejme, že bych každému řekl, že jsem tě svedl.“ Penelope strnula. „Navždy by to zničilo tvou pověst,“ pokračoval a posadil se na okraj pohovky, aby byli zhruba ve stejné rovině. „Bylo by úplně jedno, že jsme se ani nepolíbili. Taková je, drahá Penelope, síla slova.“ Seděla nehybně jako socha a tváře jí hořely. „Já… nevím, co na to říct,“ zakoktala se.

Audiokniha: Ovdovělý sir Phillip potřebuje matku pro své děti a nejvhodnější mu připadá Eloise Bridgertonová. Domnívá se totiž, že je to prostá nenáročná dívka, a protože je v devětadvaceti letech stará panna, nejspíš jen zoufale čeká na nabídku k sňatku. Žena, která se objeví na jeho prahu, mu však vyrazí dech. Je nejenom krásná, ale také sebejistá, a pokud přestane mluvit na dostatečně dlouhou dobu, aby zavřela ústa, sir Phillip netouží po ničem jiném než ji políbit. Citace / výkřiky z knižní obálky: Moje drahá slečno Bridgertonová, jsme přece přátelé, ne? Přiznávám, že zde na venkově žijeme v jisté izolaci, ale pokud se člověk nemůže při snídani dívat na usměvavý obličej na opačné straně stolu, měl by aspoň dostat laskavý dopis, nemyslíte? Přiložil jsem pro Vás další květinu. Je to Geranium pratense, známější jako kakost luční. S velkou úctou, Phillip Crane Eloise si na ten den dobře vzpomínala. Seděla u okna své ložnice a nekonečně dlouho hleděla na pečlivě vylisovanou nachovou květinu. Pokouší se jí její odesilatel dvořit? Poštou? A potom jednoho dne obdržela dopis, který se od ostatních zcela lišil. JULIA QUINNOVÁ (* 1970) je americká spisovatelka, vlastním jménem Julie Cotler Pottinger.
