The Easter Parade: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 403min
In The Easter Parade, first published in 1976, we meet sisters Sarah and Emily Grimes when they are still the children of divorced parents. We observe the sisters over four decades, watching them grow into two very different women. Sarah is stable and stalwart, settling into an unhappy marriage. Emily is precocious and independent, struggling with one unsatisfactory love affair after another. Richard Yates's classic novel is about how both women struggle to overcome their tarnished family's past, and how both finally reach for some semblance of renewal. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Conflict Resolution: Let It Be as You Say & Building Bridges Together , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 45min
Conflict Resolution builds on positive approaches to support other people and build bridges to reach a satisfactory solution for all parties. This audiobook encourages you to accept conflict as a normal part of everyone’s life, so you can move on productively to deal with it, rather than get depressed by the presence of conflict in your life and work. The author employs Justice William Douglas’s thoughts as a platform for conflict resolution: “A good agreement can be either mutually satisfactory or unsatisfactory. The key is that all parties share equally in those beliefs and feelings.” The approach involves calmly and dispassionately discussing the pros, cons, and interesting points about a problem, such as Edward DeBono suggests in his landmark book about PMI (Plus, Minus, and Interesting Point) Thinking. This audiobook builds on the experience of our author in writing and narrating Sell Anything, Negotiate Anything, Finance Anything, and the Legal Survival Kit to present the best approaches to resolving conflicts to your advantage, including personal, family, job, and organizational ones. The approach is intended to help people analyze their options, get them focused on what is best for them and everyone else, and then move to a mutually satisfactory or unsatisfactory conclusion. The audiobook uses the Middle East Conflict as a subject to practice and use your new skills on, emphasizing that you should not take sides but rather develop and present the best options for the parties, leaving it up to them to decide what to do. Your practice in developing options dispassionately on this kind of subject will help you do so with others when you are involved directly or indirectly. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Exercise of Public Authority by International Institutions
This book develops a framework for the legal analysis of global governance phenomena. Today, international institutions are responsible for more and more governance activities which cover a wide range of issue areas and which affect individuals and governments alike. So far, there exists no legal, doctrinal approach to such phenomena. The dominant social science approach is unsatisfactory from a normative standpoint: it does not allow to single out those activities on the part of international institutions which compromise individual or collective self-determination. To this end, the book proposes the concept of "international public authority." In a series of thematic studies, it identifies important hard and soft mechanisms that constitute unilateral exercises of power by the institutions of global governance. Cross-cutting analyses single out procedural and substantive principles which could become the corner stones of the further development of international institutional law.- Shop: buecher

Balanced Scorecard for Performance Measurement , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 44min
When you can measure all those words that you are talking about, and break them into numbers, you know really something about it. To the contrary, when you are not measuring anything at all, then you have no idea on what you have spoken. You have no control over your sayings. The knowledge can be meager in that way, and that could be unsatisfactory as well, says Dr. Kaplan. In other words, if you can measure, then you could improve. That is the reason why business metrics were introduced to measure the performance standards of the organizations towards improvisation. That is all balanced scorecard is about. Let us see about that in detail. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrea Giordani. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/074290/bk_acx0_074290_sample.mp3.
