    In these incredibly tough budget times, you would think government agencies would be working extra hard to find ways of doing things more efficiently. Unfortunately, leaders across the world are grabbing the same old playbook: recruitment freezes, travel restrictions, delaying maintenance, and so on. They are not examining the actual work being done; the operations are fundamentally the same. Instead they are left with tired, overworked employees trying to do the same operations with fewer resources. This approach creates an illusion of efficiency. Real efficiency is about looking at the systems, the way work itself is designed, and finding ways to streamline the work so that we do our important tasks very well in less time and with less hassle. Systems are where the costs are incurred. Systems are where the customers show up. Systems are where the value of the agency is created and systems appear to be the last thing anyone is focusing on. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Wendy Almeida.

    When we are fearful, we reveal our hostility toward God. And though this matter of fear is often discussed, it remains among the least treated of our negative emotions. Our neglect to treat fear correctly may be due to the fact that it has a dual effect upon us.Primarily, fear is a part of our primitive survival apparatus, but it also serves to prevent us from attempting great feats - exploits, which lie well within our capacity to achieve, if only we were able to defeat this foe of our aspirations. It is with the latter effect that this book is concerned.In Beyond Fear, the author Patrick Creary teaches us how to overcome fear, subdue it, and withstand all that would crush our indomitable human spirit. He squarely addresses the root cause of this foreboding emotion, tracing its genesis back to the very root of our spiritual insufficiency. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robert Price.

To promote her new business, Uma seizes the opportunity to use the local country club and its regular golfing tournaments to raise the venture's profile. She finds a team ringer in Bill, a handsome, successful businessman with important contacts and who plays a great game of golf. In creating her foursome, she also enlists her long-time friend, Laurie, who is unhappily down on her luck. Laurie's unhappiness, and her bad track record with men, make her behave badly toward Bill, who is confident in matters of business, but not confident around women. At first, Cam is concerned that Bill and Laurie could blow Uma's plan apart. But, when these two personalities collide, it's more than golf balls that get smacked on the course. Laurie needs a firm, guiding hand, and Bill is just the man to provide it. As he watches Bill and Laurie's relationship blossom, Cam sees the potential to nurture his and Uma's own prickly relationship. Will Uma's experiment in teambuilding backfire, or will the fire lit on the ladies' backsides lead to success in more than just a business sense? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Karen Tyler.
