This Just In , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 511min
WKBA news in Chicago is reeling. Their ratings are the lowest in town, and company morale has plummeted. At the end of their ropes, five women band together to correct injustices and hopefully shoot WKBA up the ratings chart. Their ideas are inventive, and their convictions are infectious, but they’ll need to crack the good-old-boys network before they ever get a chance to prove themselves. Through Yolanda Joe’s sharp observations about this cutthroat industry, the cameras are reversed and the inequalities of big-time television news are exposed. An all-star cast of Recorded Books narrators helps each character shine, bringing the story completely to life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robin Miles, Donna Bailey, C. J.

Winners and Losers : Creators and Casualties of the Age of the Internet , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 927min
Winners and Losers tells the stories of some of the most innovative businesses of recent times, explaining how a few succeeded in creating and dominating entirely new markets while so many others die in today¹s ferociously competitive online era. Explaining clearly, with many interesting examples, what contributes to success and failure in creating and developing a company. Levis shows how companies like Amazon and Google rose from nothing to enormous heights, while IBM, Kodak, and AOL plummeted from them; how Nokia bounced from near bankruptcy to global leadership; and it charts the incredible rise, fall, and rise again of Apple. This is not a "how to succeed in business" textbook, but is far more interesting and more than accessible, even for those with no background in business or economics. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Taylor Davis: Flame of Findul, Episode 6: Serial Adventures, 1.6 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 57min
You think I need anyone else? Swain's voice raged. "I, who singlehandedly stole the greatest weapon ever created? I, who hold the destiny of the entire Earth - the entire universe - in my hand? Tell me, why should I share power?" He pressed a button. Elena screamed as the grappling arm released the cage in which she and the angels were confined. They plummeted to a conveyor belt below and landed with a heavy thud. Then, as I watched in horror, Swain pulled a lever, and the belt began to move toward the flame. I whipped out my sword. I hadn't relit it - I wasn't even sure how - but I had run out of time. With a cry of desperation, I drove the blade at my enemy. Taylor's epic adventure made its debut in its original serial format. Now listen along with each episode! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joel Froomkin. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/040378/bk_acx0_040378_sample.mp3.
