    Disrupted , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 193min
    Disrupted is an exploration of the nature of the generation born during and after the great communications disruption of the last decade. Foreword by Futurist Davide Houle. It delivers strategic insights on how brands can navigate this new consumer-controlled environment. Written by tenured PR professional and president of a Los Angeles/New York PR and marketing firm, Stefan Pollack, Disrupted focuses on the iGen generation, the generation born between 1994 and 2004 (often called Gen Z). In just a few short years, iGen will be joining Gen Y as a majority among digital natives. Their existing consumer behavior represents the upcoming mainstream environment. Disrupted insists that brands need to understand how iGen communicates and change brand communication to be relevant and accessible by consumers since traditional strategies and tactics are becoming obsolete. Pollack asserts brands must gain trust with iGen by listening and becoming fluent in iGen's language and habits, conversing through two-way genuine and authentic communication, and delivering on brand promises. ungekürzt.

    The Only Woman in the Room: Why Science Is Still a Boys' Club , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 697min
    Named one of the notable nonfiction books of 2015 by The Washington Post. A bracingly honest exploration of why there are still so few women in the hard sciences, mathematics, engineering, and computer science. In 2005, when Lawrence Summers, then president of Harvard, asked why so few women, even today, achieve tenured positions in the hard sciences, Eileen Pollack set out to find the answer. A successful fiction writer, Pollack had grown up in the 1960s and '70s dreaming of a career as a theoretical astrophysicist. Denied the chance to take advanced courses in science and math, she nonetheless made her way to Yale. There, despite finding herself far behind the men in her classes, she went on to graduate summa cum laude, with honors, as one of the university's first two women to earn a bachelor of science degree in physics. And yet, isolated, lacking in confidence, starved for encouragement, she abandoned her ambition to become a physicist. Years later, spurred by the suggestion that innate differences in scientific and mathematical aptitude might account for the dearth of tenured female faculty at Summer's institution, Pollack thought back on her own experiences and wondered what, if anything, had changed in the intervening decades. Based on six years interviewing her former teachers and classmates as well as dozens of other women who had dropped out before completing their degrees in science or found their careers less rewarding than they had hoped, The Only Woman in the Room is a bracingly honest, no-holds-barred examination of the social, interpersonal, and institutional barriers confronting women - and minorities - in the STEM fields. This frankly personal and informed book reflects on women's experiences in a way that simple data can't, documenting not only the more blatant bias of another era but all the subtle disincentives women in the sciences still face.

    The Net and the Butterfly: The Art and Practice of Breakthrough Thinking , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 577min
    In The Charisma Myth, Olivia Fox Cabane offered a groundbreaking approach to becoming more charismatic. Now she teams up with Judah Pollack to reveal how anyone can train their brain to have more eureka insights. The creative mode in your brain is like a butterfly. It's beautiful and erratic, hard to catch, and highly valued as a result. If you want to capture it, you need a net. Enter the executive mode, the task-oriented network in your brain that helps you tie your shoes, run a meeting, or pitch a client. To succeed, you need both modes to work together - your inner butterfly to be active and free, but your inner net to be ready to spring at the right time and create that "aha!" moment. But is there any way to trigger these insights, beyond dumb luck? Thanks to recent neuroscience discoveries, we can now explain these breakthrough moments - and also induce them through a series of specific practices. It turns out there's a hidden pattern to all these seemingly random breakthrough ideas. From Achimedes' iconic moment in the bathtub to designer Adam Cheyer's idea for Siri, accidental breakthroughs throughout history share a common origin story. In this audiobook, you will learn to master the skills that will transform your brain into a consistent generator of insights. Drawing on their extensive coaching and training practice with top Silicon Valley firms, Cabane and Pollack provide a step-by-step process for accessing the part of the brain that produces breakthroughs and systematically removing internal blocks. Their tactics range from simple to zany, such as: Imagine an alternate universe where gravity doesn't exist, and the social and legal rules that govern it Map Disney's Pocahontas story onto James Cameron's Avatar Rid yourself of impostor syndrome through mental exercises Literally change your perspective by climbing a tree Stimulate your butterfly mode by ungekürzt.

    Der Tote im Bunker
    Im April 1947 wird in einem Bunker an der österreichisch-italienischen Grenze ein Toter entdeckt. Die Leiche weist zwei Kopfschüsse und einen Schuß in die Brust auf. Der Ausweis, der bei dem Toten gefunden wird, stellt sich als gefälscht heraus. Nachforschungen aufgrund einer Tätowierung am linken Oberarm und Schmissen im Gesicht ergeben die wahre Identität des Toten: Es handelt sich um Dr. Gerhard Bast, geboren 1911, SS-Sturmbannführer, Mitglied der Gestapo, auf der Fahndungsliste für Kriegsverbrecher geführt. Über ein halbes Jahrhundert später fährt Martin Pollack nach Südtirol, um die Umstände dieses Todes zu eruieren. Sein Bericht spürt mit ungeheurer Intensität einem Menschen, einem Leben nach, das von Gewalt bestimmt war und durch Gewalt endete. Martin Pollack hat diesen Menschen kaum gekannt, doch er stand ihm nahe wie sonst niemand - es war sein eigener Vater.»Ein bedrückendes Buch, eine kluge und glänzende Dokumentation und zugleich empfindsame Literatur. Ein Glücksfall.« Gabriele von Arnim im 'Tagesspiegel'

    Kaiser von Amerika
    Galizien um 1900: Hunderttausende träumen von einem besseren Leben jenseits des Atlantiks. Den unwissenden und verzweifelten Menschen kann man leicht einreden, dass die Freiheitsstatue in New York die Jungfrau Maria darstelle und der Kaiser von Amerika die armen Menschen aus Osteuropa in sein Reich rufe. Schlepper, Agenten und Mädchenhändler schlagen Kapital aus dem Elend. Eindringlich und anschaulich erzählt Martin Pollack von den Schattenseiten der Auswanderung, die beklemmende Parallelen zur Situation vieler heutiger Migranten aufweist.
