    When the flood waters of Hurricane Katrina receded around New Orleans, they revealed unimaginable destruction and a traditional disaster recovery process that was Byzantine, costly, and far too slow for the victims who just wanted to get home.Getting Home is the inspiring story of a defense lawyer and a school teacher who left their careers to rebuild homes for desperate survivors but wound up reconstructing the entire process for rebuilding after disasters. Authors Liz McCartney and Zack Rosenburg describe how SBP, the disaster relief nonprofit they founded, partnered with Toyota to apply the lean principles of the Toyota Production System to rebuild homes and lives following hurricanes, tornadoes, and floods throughout the US and its territories.For lean thinkers, this story offers a fresh look at lean tools being used in non-traditional settings. With a short-term volunteer workforce, a layer of middle management that turns over every 10 months, and constantly shifting sources of income, SBP seemed like it could never escape a constant cycle of emergencies and triumphs. Using lean tools, however, Liz and Zack got their work processes under control and found the time to think deeply about the nature of disasters and rebuilding and found themselves with a clearer mission.The aduiobook also details an innovative, nine-step blueprint for how private industry, relief agencies, volunteers, and all levels of government can work together to dramatically shrink the time between when disasters hit and victims get home in a prompt, efficient, and predictable way. ungekürzt.

    The House That Sugarcane Built tells the saga of Jules M. Burguières, Sr., and five generations of Louisianans who, after the Civil War, established a sugar empire that has survived into the present. When 27-year-old Parisian immigrant Eugène D. Burguières landed at the Port of New Orleans in 1831, one of the oldest Louisiana dynasties began. Seen through the lens of one family, this book traces the Burguières from 17th-century France, to 19th- century New Orleans and rural south Louisiana, and into the 21st century. It's also a rich portrait of an American region that has retained its vibrant French culture. As the sweeping narrative of the clan unfolds, so does the story of their family-owned sugar business, the J. M. Burguières Company, as it plays a pivotal role in the expansion of the sugar industry in Louisiana, Florida, and Cuba. The French Burguières were visionaries who knew the value of land and its bountiful resources. The fertile soil along the bayous and wetlands of south Louisiana bestowed on them an abundance of sugarcane above its surface, and salt, oil, and gas beneath. Ever in pursuit of land, the Burguières expanded their holdings to include the vast swamps of the Florida Everglades; then, in 2004, they turned their sights to cattle ranches on the great frontier of west Texas. Finally, integral to the story are the complex dynamics and tensions inherent in this family-owned company, revealing both failures and victories in its history of more than 135 years. The J. M. Burguières Company's survival has depended upon each generation safeguarding and nourishing a legacy for the next. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Bierma.

    What is a lean sensei and what exactly do they do? That is the key question at the heart of this important new book sharing the secret of lean thinking, which Dan Jones calls “the alternative business model for our age”.Jones explains that “behind all the tools for operational excellence and the different management system needed to support their use, lies a much deeper challenge: to develop the human potential of everyone to create a culture of accelerating continuous improvement to meet today’s changing circumstances. Learning is at the heart of lean.”The Lean Sensei provides both a conceptual and hands-on toolkit for developing lean leaders and becoming one yourself. It will challenge you to reflect on how you coach, share mindful questions that improve your awareness of what to look for, and keep both you and your students focused on the signs, symptoms, and syndromes that can slow your lean success.This book, authored by six lean pioneers who have experienced and followed the path of the sensei, shares a radical vision of how to flourish with this approach. They argue that "lean" is a system of gaining competitiveness by continuously developing people, and as such, sensei play a vital role in helping others deepen their thinking every day. To be effective in transforming processes and the people who operate within them, any sensei must first learn to transform themselves, as the authors explain.Praise for the book:"No one can do lean for you. It is up to you. But you will also need a sensei to help you discover new ways of seeing and acting and to help everyone learn to adapt to a rapidly changing world. These lean pioneers discovered what senseis really do. Learn from them before you search for your own sensei.” (Daniel T. Jones, coauthor of The Machine That Changed the World, Lean Thinking, Lean Solutions, and The Lean Strategy) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Bierma.

    RADIUS, the sequel to the best-selling business audiobook Third Circle Theory, (which since 2013 has sold well over 300,000 copies worldwide), continues on Secret Entourage's mission to bring meaningful business education to the masses. As more and more people embark on the idea that small business ownership and entrepreneurship may be the only path of finding monetary and personal success in a very crowded and ever evolving global economy, it only made sense for me to create a powerful blueprint that would highlight all aspects of business mastery. Written from a universal lens, RADIUS helps listeners understand the powerful five entrepreneurial pillars that every business in every industry worldwide falls under. From the idea phase, to the birth of a product or service, to understanding the revenue model of a business, to the start of the brand which eventually, when re-used and recycled, can lead to a very robust empire. The five pillars of RADIUS are the checkpoints that each and every business has an opportunity to cross, but very few do. By understanding the mechanics behind each and every one of them, the listener is able to literally understand how far along their business is, and how prepared they are to take the next step. This incredible new system breaks down the processes and most important concepts behind each pillar, such as how to ensure you are pursuing the correct idea, how to understand the pricing and revenue models of a business, how to penetrate an audience through the REACH model, and how to recycle resources and customers to create multiple profitable verticals as fast as possible, and many more. All of these concepts are presented in the form of processes that can be universally applied across the spectrum of any business, and at any given time, in its life cycle. ungekürzt.

    The world we live in today is far different than it was 100 years ago. In fact, it is vastly different from the world of even 10 years ago. The advances in the medical science field deserve the most praise. These advances have improved and enhanced treatment methods for the diseases and ailments that are ever more present in society. Out of these advances, cannabis oil has been one of the most effective and widely adopted medical treatment methods of the last century. Cannabis oil, also referred to as hemp oil, is greatly different from marijuana that individuals use to get "high" and even different from medical marijuana administered by medical professionals. The main component, the active ingredient in cannabis oil, is a cannabinoid by the name of Cannabidiol (CBD). The absorption of CBD by the body does not result in any psychoactive effects, such as a feeling of being "high" or "stoned." Rather, their effects on the body can be described as calming and soothing, both on a physical level which an individual can recognize as well as on a level beneath the skin. The active ingredient in Marijuana that is used for recreational or medicinal purposes, on the other hand, is Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). THC is the cannabinoid that induces the feeling of being "high" that is most often associated with all forms of cannabis. The reported benefits of cannabis oil vary greatly and span medical conditions such as cancer, epilepsy, insomnia, and high blood pressure. Cannabis oil has been touted by some as a "miracle treatment" for many conditions that simply did not have an effective treatment with minimal side effects available to consumers.

    The first questions most people ask when starting a new job are "When do I get paid?" and "How much?" They're questions conditioned in us from the time we are kids doing our first odd jobs. And, we ask every single time we start new employment. Yet many of us forget about these questions when we begin working in a multilevel/network marketing/home-based business. Then we find our heads spinning, wondering how everything fits together. How does this happen? Well, most of the time - in Young Living - it's the women who jump into the business first. In other words, guys rarely look at the compensation plan because it's not "their thing". As well, the fact is that most people who enroll as wholesale members with Young Living and later "do the business" never intended to do anything more than simply use the oils or just sell enough to "fund their habit". As such, as the business starts growing and things start humming along, they find themselves with lots of action and little information. The compensation plan is complex - even if clear. In this field guide, we'll walk through it. You'll learn.... How much work this will really take How to jump-start a business that is new or has stalled for a bit Steps to take to become financially free - or reach any other financial milestone between where you are and where you want to be The power of residual income streams Little-known programs Young Living has created that accelerate your success How to understand terms like Unilevel, Shares, Generations, as well as the eight ways to make money as a Young Living wholesale member What other people make "doing the business", how much they work, and just how profitable this can be for you ungekürzt.
