Описание: In an ever-changing world, it is important to remember that we can control our reactions and responses to other people and the situations that arise in life. Accountability Now shares ways we can all learn to become more resilient in the face of change, find greater happiness, and create an environment where others can learn to do the same. Mark Sasscer, founder and CEO of an international leadership consulting and training firm, relies on ten principles of personal leadership in order to teach others to take ownership for their choices, decisions, outcomes, and consequences. While exploring these ten principles that encourage others to be fully present and authentic and humanistic, model high performance, initiate courageous conversations, and mentor others, Sasscer shares not only the stories from many of the forty leaders who contributed to this book, but also details from his own personal journey as he coaches others on how to improve their own outcomes in life. With a focus on building healthy relationships where expectations are timely and realistic, and feedback is routinely shared, Sasscer guides leaders of all types on a path to creating the kind of self-awareness that results in a successful professional career, peace of mind, and ultimately personal contentment.

Nicknamed Dog for his almost superhuman ability to sniff out his prey, Johnny Able, a single-minded kid from Muskogee, is a certified legend fighting in Vietnam during a war that produces few legends. With a bounty on his head and not a fiber of fear in his body, Johnny commands terror from the enemy and awe from the men fighting beside him. As quiet as he is deadly, Johnny is concealing a shattering secret that only war can tear from a man's soul... a secret so explosive it may make his one hundredth kill the deadliest of all. Told with a distinguished military historian's attention to authenticity and the dramatic imagination of a storyteller, Charles W. Sasser does it again with this riveting war novel offering a fascinating, rarely-glimpsed side of the Vietnam war that is "tough, raunchy, gritty, and surprisingly tender" (Military History Magazine).

Описание: From the jungles of Vietnam to the unforgiving deserts of Afghanistan and Iraq, one breed of soldier has achieved legendary status in the arena of combat--the sniper. From the authors of the classic sniper chronicle One Shot-One Kill comes a new generation of true tales from some of the most expert and deadly marksmen in the world. Meet Adelbert Waldron II, whose 109 confirmed kills in Vietnam made him the most successful sniper in American military history, and Tom Moose Ferran, who coined the term Fetch!, whereupon the infantry would retrieve the sniper's dead quarry. Also included are stories from snipers in Beirut, the Bosnian conflict, and both wars with Iraq--including the feat of Sergeants Joshua Hamblin and Owen Mulder, who took down thirty-two enemy soldiers in a single day outside Baghdad in 2003. The military sniper has evolved into one of the most dangerous and highly-skilled warrior professions. They suffer through weather, terrain, and enemy action, lay unmoving for days on end, and take out their targets with unerring accuracy--proving that the deadliest weapon in any battle, anywhere in the world, is a single well-aimed shot.
