  Take on the Street: What Wall Street and Corporate America Don't Want You to Know and How You Can Fight Back, Hörbuch, Digital, 373min

  Investors today are fed lies and distortions while being exploited and neglected. In the wake of the last decade's rush to invest by millions of households and Wall Street's obsession with short-term performance, a culture of gamesmanship has grown among corporate management, financial analysts, brokers, and fund managers, making it difficult to tell financial fantasy from reality, salesmanship from honest advice. In Take on the Street, Arthur Levitt - former chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission - shows how you can take matters into your own hands. At once anecdotal (names are named), informative, and prescriptive, Take on the Street expounds on, among other subjects: the conflicts of interest inherent in buy-hold-or-sell recommendations of analysts; the "seven deadly sins" of mutual funds; how accountants engage in legerdemain to fake impressive company performance; the real reason for the Street's hostility to full disclosure; the seduction by corporate management of boards of directors; and, given these shenanigans and double-dealings, some specific steps you can take to safeguard your financial future. With integrity and authority, Levitt gives us a bracing primer on the collapse of the system that oversees our capital markets, and essential advice on a discipline we often ignore to our peril - how not to lose money.

  Public Gardens and Livable Cities: Partnerships Connecting People, Plants, and Place , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 479min

  Public Gardens and Livable Cities changes the paradigm for how we conceive of the role of urban public gardens. Donald A. Rakow, Meghan Z. Gough, and Sharon A. Lee advocate for public gardens as community outreach agents that can, and should, partner with local organizations to support positive local agendas.Safe neighborhoods, quality science education, access to fresh and healthy foods, substantial training opportunities, and environmental health are the key initiative areas the authors explore as they highlight model successes and instructive failures that can guide future practices. Public Gardens and Livable Cities uses a prescriptive approach to synthesize a range of public, private, and nonprofit initiatives from municipalities throughout the country. In doing so, the authors examine the initiatives from a practical perspective to identify how they were implemented, their sustainability, the obstacles they encountered, the impact of the initiatives on their populations, and how they dealt with the communities' underlying social problems.By emphasizing the knowledge and skills that public gardens can bring to partnerships seeking to improve the quality of life in cities, this book offers a deeper understanding of the urban public garden as a key resource for sustainable community development.The book is published by Cornell University Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gary Roelofs. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/220044/bk_acx0_220044_sample.mp3.

  When Buyers Say No: Essential Strategies for Keeping a Sale Moving Forward , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 478min

  This is a complete and practical guide which highlights the authors' new strategic approaches to selling when the buyer initially declines or is resistant on a sales opportunity. Hopkins and Katt explain that most sales reps take a traditional linear approach to selling, but that the trick in closing is in taking a more creative and circular approach. That's the key. It all starts with how the buyer initially says, "No." Too many sales reps don't pay close attention as to how that's presented. Hopkins and Katt point out that "no" may suggest all sorts of other options - avenues that can eventually lead to the buyer actually saying yes. The authors introduce a novel concept called the Circle of Persuasion which offers sales reps a new approach in this potentially tricky process. Along the way, When Buyers Say No details prescriptive steps and even sample dialogues that will instruct and guide sales professionals on how to best cultivate buyer-seller relationships. There's particular emphasis on how to establish the kind of rapport that ultimately leads to a successful close. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Pete Larkin.

  My Life on the Swingset: Adventures in Swinging & Polyamory , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 473min, (USK 18)

  Starting with a first date with a couple of swingers; followed by working through social anxiety and shyness; recognizing the importance of touch in life; evolving feelings about love and expectations; having threesomes, orgies, and prostate orgasms; going through a divorce; and leveling up in life and sexuality. For five years, Cooper S. Beckett has written for Life on the Swingset. The website was born out of the feeling that he'd learned enough in his whole year of swinging to tell other people how to live their nonmonogamous lives. His hubris can be seen from space. Here, he has collected personal essays, stories, erotica, and prescriptive how-tos into this memoir of his life, My Life on the Swingset. He may be biased when it comes to swinging, polyamory, and other forms of ethical nonmonogamy (in fact, he most certainly is), but he doesn't sugarcoat it. He speaks honestly and earnestly about a unique way to live life, one that allows for sexual and loving growth and experimentation, a strong sense of community, and the ability to do what we all crave, whether we know it or not: to be honest with ourselves and others about what we want sexually. And out of life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cooper S. Beckett. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/039934/bk_acx0_039934_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

  This program is read by the author. From the cofounder of Flywheel and SoulCycle comes an audiobook about perseverance and success.  Ruth Zukerman is the queen of spinning: She put the Soul in SoulCycle and the Fly in Flywheel. Recounting the pivotal moments that helped launch Zukerman as the breakout star of the boutique fitness world, Riding High is a reminder that the greatest success stories often start in the unlikeliest of places.  Ruth Zukerman used her heartache - at the death of her father, the end of her marriage, and the dissolution of her first business partnership with SoulCycle, as the inspiration to reinvent herself. At 51, she founded a new business, the highly successful Flywheel, and built the life of which she’d always dreamed. And she did it all while navigating through single motherhood and a business world that is often unkind to women, especially those who wear their hearts on their sleeves.   Riding High is a prescriptive, warts-and-all journey through Ruth’s evolution, offering fresh, unexpected business and life lessons to help listeners recognize their own potential and channel their passion into success. Part confidante, part mentor, Ruth pulls no punches and holds nothing back. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ruth Zukerman.

  The New York Times best-selling author of The No Asshole Rule reads his guide on how to preserve civility, sanity, and success when facing a business world full of difficult people. Since The No Asshole Rule became a national best seller a decade ago, Robert Sutton has been asked, in a thousand different ways, the best way to deal with an asshole.

He even teaches you how to look inward to stifle your own jackass.
