What do Martha Stewart, genetically cloned sheep and the scandalous Piss Christ artist Andres Serrano have in common? They're all manifestations of "high tech/high touch," an unwieldy concept pulled from Naisbitt's bestselling 1982 Megatrends and here dusted off as a cautionary paradigm for the technologically addled 1990s. Written collaboratively with Naisbitt's daughter, Nana, with additional help from artist Douglas Philips, the book draws on Naisbitt's indefatigable research techniques to spot trends in newspapers, television shows, magazines and the Internet. Naisbitt is concerned with the conundrums that technology has presented to American culture. Children soak up violence from video games like Redneck Rampage, while the specter of eugenics looms over the burgeoning biotech industry. A final section lightens the cautionary tone of much of this book, delivering an eloquent survey of artists who are probing the ethical questions raised by evolving medical practices. Naisbitt sees Americans trapped in wh

If you're ever favored enough to catch a few minutes of a corporate CEO's time, and feel bold enough to ask what their job entails, chances are you'll hear something lofty about developing strategy, empowering employees, seeing the big picture. But if you ask to see their calendar for the past month, you'll probably find they've spent very little, if any, time doing those things. The look-at-last-month's-calendar trick was devised by Donald Laurie, a Boston-based management consultant, to help top executives figure out how best to lead their companies. Laurie sees a leader as the person who climbs out on the balcony and sees the company from above, the one who sees how all the parts connect to make a smoothly running machine. At the same time, if the leader stays up on that balcony for too much of the day, he or she can't hear the grumbling below. And what's being grumbled about is often the information that could save the CEO's job. As an example of this, Laurie relates the story of Xerox Corp. when it

Wouldn’t it be great if you could be audaciously ambitious andhappy at the same time? You can, and you will. We women aren’t advancing in our careers the way we should. We’renot making the money we deserve or getting the fulfillment wedesire. And this time it’s not men who are holding us back. Thistime we’re doing it to ourselves, because ambition—for us—is stilla dirty word. Debra Condren has coached thousands of women at every level—fromthose just starting out to the most powerful female executives inthe United States—and each one possesses the same fear: if she goesafter her dream, she’ll be seen as selfish, bitchy, a bad wife, orbad mother. But it’s exactly this fear of ambition that has forcedwomen to leave the best part of themselves—their dreams, theirgreat talents—by the roadside, rendering them less able to be thewhole people they should be in every area of their lives. Condren has a new message and mission: to remind women

Grade 5–8—What if just outside of Earth's known atmosphere there sat another layer that was actually a different dimension? Such is the premise for this novel. For as long as she can remember, orphan Hayley has lived sequestered away with her strict grandmother and mysteriously busy grandfather. A chance meeting on an outing lands her in big trouble and she finds herself shipped off to stay with relatives in the country. Here Hayley meets dozens of cousins who invite her to play a strange game. Its object is to go to different places in the mythosphere and retrieve various items while dodging mythological creatures. The plot thickens when she meets her father and learns that he and her mother are both trapped in the mythosphere as punishment for their illicit marriage. Hayley frees them and discovers that she, like all of the other characters in the story, is really a mythological figure who can live in either realm. Meanwhile, the frightening family patriarch, Uncle Jolyon, finds out about the game and c

Book De*ion In his phenomenal bestseller, Emotional Intelligence, DanielGoleman mapped the territory where IQ meets EQ, where we apply whatwe know to how we live. Spending over a year on the New York Timesbestseller list, Emotional Intelligence provided the evidence forwhat many successful people already knew: being smart isn't just amatter of mastering facts; it's a matter of mastering your ownemotions and understanding the emotions of the people aroundyou.Now, in Working With Emotional Intelligence, Goleman shows whyemotional intelligence has become the new yardstick for success forCEOs and junior hires alike. Drawing on both unparalleled access tobusiness leaders and in-depth research, he documents that starperformance in every field depends more on emotional intelligencethan IQ or technical skills. And the impact of emotionalintelligence is even greater at the top of the leadershippyramid.Goleman vividly shows how self-awareness, motivation,influence, conflict management, and team-building pl

EXPLORING AND EXPLODING OUR NOTIONS OF WORK Joanne B. Ciulla, a noted scholar in Leadership and Ethics,examines why so many people today have let their jobs take overtheir lives. Technology was supposed to free us from work, butinstead we work longer hours-often tethered to the office at homeby cell phones and e-mail. People still look to work forself-fulfillment, community, and identity, but these things may beincreasingly difficult to find in today's workplace. Gone is thesocial contract where employees and employers shared a sense ofmutual loyalty, yet many of us still sacrifice personal time forjobs that we could lose at the drop of a stock price. Tracing theevolution of the meaning of work from Aesop to Dilbert, andcritically examining the past 100 years of management practices,Ciulla asks questions that we often willfully ignore at our ownperil. *When you are on your deathbed, will you wish you had spent moretime at the office? *Why do we define ourselves by our jobs rather than
