The Possibility Wheel - Gill Ringland, Patricia Lustig
This is a practical guide to improved medium-term decision-making for business leaders. The quality of decisions made by organisations and governments affects us all: decisions made with old paradigm assumptions may not take advantage of opportunities presented by the new, emerging paradigm; they restrict our ability to develop resilient choices. In The Possibility Wheel, Patricia Lustig and Gill Ringland collate and analyse the trends that underlie the changes that are overturning our economy and society. They provide a clear framework for making sense of what is happening around the world: Presenting evidence from the best sources Outlining ‘Forces for Change’ that surround us Evaluating the disruptive ‘Threats’ that we face and examining the fracturing social and economic ‘Backbones’ on which we all rely. Then they offer a toolset (the Possibility Wheel) to help senior executives and management teams make informed and resilient choices and strategic decisions. The Possibility Wheel brings global evidence to play in your locality and organisational context — so you can explore opportunities, develop resilient choices, make more robust decisions and enjoy better outcomes.

Tachles, Lustig ()
Audiokniha MP3 - autor Karel Hvížďala, čte Oldřich Kaiser a Karel Hvížďala Upřímné a pravdivé vyprávění dvou životních přátel, doplněné dvěma anekdotamiRozhovor Karla Hvížďaly s Arnoštem Lustigem byl veden v roce 2010 a 2011. Název Tachles navrhla pro knihu Jitka Molavcová. V hebrejštině znamená toto slovo pobídku, aby se yypravěč vrátil k tématu, tedy k věci. Arnošt Lustig, jako velký požitkář života, se totiž rád rozpovídal tak, že od zmíněné Hvížďalovy otázky uhnul k nekonečnému množství příběhů dalších, sice nesmírně zajímavých, ale zásadně odbočujících. Lustig vzpomíná na situace svého života v odvážně upřímné a pravdivé zpovědi bez zábran. Od dětství, mládí, od zážitků v koncentračních táborech přechází ke vzpomínkám na život poválečný, na kolegy v redakcích i vysokých školách, kde přednášel, na spolupracovníky a přátele v Čechách, posléze v Americe, v Izraeli. Velký milovník žen nezapomíná ani na zásadní milostné události. Arnošt Lustig zemřel 26. 2....

Nemilovaná - Arnošt Lustig - audiokniha
Audiokniha: DENÍK S DAVIDOVOU HVĚZDOU Je jí sedmnáct let. Je krásná a její jméno se krásou třpytí: jmenuje se Perla. O čem asi tak snívají jiné dívky v jejím věku? O prvních láskách, o nových šatech do tanečních… A čeho se bojí? Přísného matikáře, maturitní komise… V roce 1943, kdy se děj Lustigovy novely odehrává, mají ještě jiné starosti. Přinesla je válka. Ale Perla nemá jen starosti, Perla má strach. Jako statisíce jiných musela jednoho dne opustit svůj domov a nastoupit do transportu. Konečná stanice: Terezín. Prozatím. Ale jak dlouho může trvat „prozatím“, na jehož konci čeká vlak s dlouhou řadou vagonů, v němž si dojede pro smrt? Perla hraje hru s osudem a do banku dává to jediné, co jí ještě zůstalo: sebe samotnou. I v podmínkách Terezína, kde ztratili jméno a stali se čísly, lidé zůstali zase „jen lidmi“. Ženy zůstaly ženami. A muži zůstali muži. I v nacisty střeženém ghettu lidé touží po lásce. Perla se věnuje nejstaršímu řemeslu světa. Za oddálení cesty do neznáma je ochotna udělat cokoli. Hodinoví milenci platí Perle za lásku praktickými věcmi, které si dívka pečlivě zapisuje do deníku. A vlivný pan L. dokáže zařídit, aby její registrační kartička v pravý čas ...

Metabolical - Dr Robert Lustig
Did you know that a staggering 62% of the food in our supermarkets is ultra-processed - and that eating these foods slowly poisons us over time?In this hard-hitting exposé, New York Times bestselling author Dr Robert Lustig reveals how our addiction to ultra-processed foods - fuelled by the food industry, big agriculture, big pharma, medicine, and government - is driving a deadly surge in diseases like diabetes, heart disease, fatty liver, cancer, and dementia.We''ve been led to believe these chronic illnesses are just part of aging. Dr Lustig shatters this myth and shows that it''s actually a consequence of what we eat.The solution? Returning to real, unprocessed food. Dr Lustig offers a practical, doable plan to restore health, boost immunity, and reclaim wellbeing - for ourselves and society.''Metabolical lays bare the depth of the relationship between the recent and profound perversion of the human diet and its overwhelming health consequences.'' - Dr David Perlmutter, author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers Grain Brain and Brain Wash

Hacking of the American Mind - Robert H. Lustig
"Explores how industry has manipulated our most deep-seated survival instincts."—David Perlmutter, MD, Author, #1 New York Times bestseller, Grain Brain and Brain MakerThe New York Times–bestselling author of Fat Chance reveals the corporate scheme to sell pleasure, driving the international epidemic of addiction, depression, and chronic disease. While researching the toxic and addictive properties of sugar for his New York Times bestseller Fat Chance, Robert Lustig made an alarming discovery—our pursuit of happiness is being subverted by a culture of addiction and depression from which we may never recover. Dopamine is the “reward” neurotransmitter that tells our brains we want more; yet every substance or behavior that releases dopamine in the extreme leads to addiction. Serotonin is the “contentment” neurotransmitter that tells our brains we don’t need any more; yet its deficiency leads to depression. Ideally, both are in optimal supply. Yet dopamine evolved to overwhelm serotonin—because our ancestors were more likely to survive if they were constantly motivated—with the result that constant desire can chemically destroy our ability to feel happiness, while sending us down the slippery slope to addiction. In the last forty years, government legislation and subsidies have promoted ever-available temptation (sugar, drugs, social media, porn) combined ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Modlitba pro Kateřinu Horowitzovou - Arnošt Lustig - audiokniha
Audiokniha: Kateřina Horovitzová je velmi krásná, odvážná dospívající dívka, která na rampě po vystoupení z vlaku ve vyhlazovacím táboře prohlásí, že nechce zemřít. Zahlédne ji při tom Herman Cohen, bohatý židovský obchodník, který se jí ujme a vyprosí si její záchranu. Jenže oba se stanou obětí cynické hry nacistů. Kateřina Horovitzová ale bojuje až do konce. Tento příběh prý napsal Arnošt Lustig za pouhých dvanáct dní a vycházel z reálné události.Své knihy měl Lustig tendenci přepisovat či rozšiřovat, snad proto, aby se nezapomnělo a aby bylo řečeno co nejvíc.Modlitba pro Kateřinu Horovitzovou je jednou z mála knih, kterou dodatečně téměř neupravoval. Vychází z reálné události, která se stala italským Židům, a z příběhu o polské tanečnici, která se na poslední chvíli před plynovou komorou vzepřela svému osudu.Knize se dostalo jak filmového, tak divadelního zpracování.V režii Hany Kofránkové účinkují: Rudolf Pellar a Jan Teplý.

Modlitba pro Kateřinu Horovitzovou - Arnošt Lustig
Psychologická novela o tragickém osudu židovské dívky, která povýšila pomstu za své soukmenovce na smysl své existence. Kniha vychází ze skutečných událostí a byla poprvé vydána roku 1964. Samotná postava Kateřiny Horovitzové je inspirována osudem skutečné dívky, jíž byla polská herečka Franceska Mann.Lustig v této sugestivní novele zpracovává především motiv sadistické léčky, s jejíž pomocí se nacističtí pohlaváři pokusili získat majetek od skupiny zajatých bohatých židovských obchodníků, kteří se před německým nacismem napřed zachránili útěkem do USA, ale posléze, roku 1943, se vrátili do Itálie a tam do rukou nacistů stejně padli. Mezi těmito obchodníky byla i krásná židovka Kateřina Horovitzová. Nacisté obchodníkům slibovali, že je vymění za zajaté německé důstojníky, ale všechno to byla samozřejmě lež.V druhé rovině novely je pak popisován vlastní příběh hrdinky, dívky, která se na prahu smrti vzepře ponižování své lidské důstojnosti a dokáže v sobě zmobilizovat sílu, schopnou překonat strach i přirozený pud sebezáchovy.

Arnošt Lustig se pokusil o konečné zúčtování s tématy, která poznamenávají celou jeho tvorbu – nepochopitelnost nacistické myšlenky na vyhlazení Židů a láska k životu. Hlavní představitelé, mladí lidé plní tělesných tužeb prožívají v Terezíně svou zakázanou lásku. Transport může přijít každým dnem, a tak žijí naplno a vyslovují věci, které by možná ze sebe možná nikdy nevypustili. Výsledkem je příběh plný milostných vyznání i esejistických podobenství o smyslu života.

Essentials of Strategic Planning in Healthcare, Third Edition
An organization may know its current situation down to the last pack of gauze or vial of insulin—but does it know what’s in its future? Successful healthcare strategic planning not only needs to measure how well a hospital or health system is currently performing but also must anticipate what lies ahead. Essentials of Strategic Planning in Healthcare is a complete guide to developing and implementing a strategic plan. Starting with an examination of leadership’s role in strategic planning and the impact of organizational culture, the book then explores the essential techniques, tools, and data for developing a strategic plan and recommends strategic planning initiatives across the continuum of healthcare services. Taking a futurist perspective, author Jeffrey P. Harrison acknowledges the constant changes in regulatory and quality requirements and the evolving healthcare innovations that strategic planning must consider. A comprehensive case study woven throughout the book allows readers to assume the role of strategic planners and apply what they are learning to the entire strategic planning process. This revised edition includes insight into the modern healthcare system and an exploration of trends in mergers and acquisitions, system growth, and value-based care.

The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking - Watkins Michael
How did John F. Kennedy put a man on the moon in just under ten years?What can chess teach us about actionable insights?And why should you shake up a business at a time of great success?All of these questions have their answer in strategic thinking. But what is strategic thinking exactly? Are we born with it, or can we nurture it?As a distinct and important capability in leaders, strategic thinking is a remarkably poorly defined, little understood concept, confined to management courses and board meetings. But in The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking, world-renowned expert Michael Watkins shows leaders how they can benefit from it, as long as they have the tools to nurture it.Exploring the six specific mental disciplines that together constitute strategic thinking, each chapter shows how they can create value, and offers prescriptions on how to develop the strategic thinking mindset ourselves. Academically grounded but jargon-free, with real-world examples from all sectors and ages, The Six Disciplines of Strategic Thinking assesses our innate ability to think strategically, and helps us to cultivate it, leading to better decisions that get proven results.

Patricia Brent, Spinster
“Patricia Brent, Spinster†by Herbert Jenkins is a delightful romantic comedy that satirizes social norms and expectations. The story centers on Patricia Brent, a vibrant and independent woman who is labeled an old maid by her society. Frustrated by the condescending sympathy of those around her, Patricia creates a fictitious fiancé to deflect their pity and assert her autonomy.As Patricia's fictional engagement spirals out of control, she finds herself entangled in a series of humorous and unexpected situations. Her clever ruse leads to genuine romantic entanglements, as the invented fiancé takes on a life of its own. The novel explores themes of independence and self-assertion.Jenkins' witty and charming narrative highlights Patricia's struggle to live on her own terms, blending romance and comedy to create an engaging and entertaining read. The story reflects the comedic potential of misunderstandings and the pursuit of true love amidst social expectations. Patricia's fabricated engagement serves as a commentary on the ridiculousness of the societal obsession with marriage and the notion that a woman's worth is defined by her marital status and these interactions underscore the often superficial nature of societal judgments and the freedom found in challenging them.
