Описание: "Imagine what you could do with the time you spend writing emails every day." Complexity is killing companies' ability to innovate and adapt, and simplicity is fast becoming the competitive advantage of our time. "Why Simple Wins" helps leaders and their teams move beyond the feelings of frustration and futility that come with so much unproductive work in today s corporate world to create a corporate culture where valuable, essential, meaningful work is the norm. By learning how to eliminate redundancies, communicate with clarity, and make simplification a habit, individuals and companies can begin to recognize which activities are time-sucks and which create lasting value. Lisa Bodell s simplification method has several unique principles: Simplification is a skill that s available to us all, yet very few leaders use it. Simplification is the right thing to dofor our customers, for our company, and for each other. Operating with simplification as our core business model will make it easier to be respectful of each other s time. Simplification drives culture, and culture in turn drives employee engagement, customer relations, and overall productivity. This book is inspired by Bodell s passion for eliminating barriers to innovation and productivity. In it, she explains why change and innovation are so hard to achieveand it s not what you might expect. The reality is this: we spend our days drowning in mundane tasks like meetings, emails, and reports. These are often self-created complexities that prevent us from getting to the meaningful work that truly matters. Using simple stories and techniques, "Why Simple Wins" shows that by using simplicity as an operating principle, we can eliminate the busy work that puts a chokehold on us every day, and instead spend time on the work that we value.

Описание: "The UN was not created to take mankind to heaven, but to save humanity from hell." --Dag Hammarskjцld, United Nations Secretary-General 1953-1961 The turn of the 21st century was an objective low point in the history of human health: AIDS was scourging Africa, millions of women died each year in child birth, and billions suffered under malnourishment and poverty. In response, the United Nations launched its Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), an ambitious charter that since 2000 has measurably reduced the worldwide burdens of poverty, hunger, and disease. With the MDGs set to expire in 2015, continued progress on these fronts is anything but certain. In addition to the persisting threats of the 20th century, globalization has sped the development of new threats--pandemics, climate change, chronic disease--that now threaten rich and poor countries equally. "To Save Humanity" is a collection of short, honest essays on what single issue matters most for the future of global health. Authored by the world's leading voices from science, politics, and social advocacy, this collection is both a primer on the major issues of our time and a potential blueprint for post-2015 health and development. This unparalleled collection will provide illuminating and thought-provoking reading for anyone invested in our collective future and well-being.
