The surprising science of meetings : how you can lead your team to peak performance / by Rogelberg, Steven G.,author.;

This tremendous time investment yields only modest returns. No organization made up of human beings is immune from the all-too-common meeting gripes: those that fail to engage, those that inadvertently encourage participants to tune out, and those that blatantly disregard participants' time. Most companies and leaders view poor meetings as an inevitable cost of doing business. But managers can take heart: researchers now have a clear understanding of the key drivers that make meetings successful. In The Surprising Science of Meetings, Steven G. Rogelberg, researcher and consultant to some of the world's most successful companies, draws from extensive research, analytics and data mining, and survey interviews with over 5,000 employees across a range of industries to share the proven practices and techniques that help managers and employees enhance the quality of their meetings. For those who lead and participate in meetings, Rogelberg provides immediate direction, guidance, and relief, offering a how-to guide to change your working life starting today"--Publisher's website.

Free speech beyond words : the surprising reach of the First Amendment / by Tushnet, Mark,1945-author.; Chen, Alan,author.(CARDINAL)402328; Blocher, Joseph,author.(CARDINAL)598446;

Includes bibliographical references (pages 237-253) and index.Introduction -- Instrumental music and the First Amendment -- Art and the First Amendment -- Nonsense and the freedom of speech: what meaning means for the First Amendment -- Going further: additional problems and concluding thoughts"The Supreme Court has unanimously held that Jackson Pollock's paintings, Arnold Schöenberg's music, and Lewis Carroll's poem "Jabberwocky" are "unquestionably shielded" by the First Amendment. Nonrepresentational art, instrumental music, and nonsense: all receive constitutional coverage under an amendment protecting "the freedom of speech," even though none involves what we typically think of as speechthe use of words to convey meaning. As a legal matter, the Court's conclusion is clearly correct, but its premises are murky, and they raise difficult questions about the possibilities and limitations of law and expression. Nonrepresentational art, instrumental music, and nonsense do not employ language in any traditional sense, and sometimes do not even involve the transmission of articulable ideas. How, then, can they be treated as "speech" for constitutional purposes? What does the difficulty of that question suggest for First Amendment law and theory? And can law resolve such inquiries without relying on aesthetics, ethics, and philosophy? Comprehensive and compelling, this book represents a sustained effort to account, constitutionally, for these modes of "speech." While it is firmly centered in debates about First Amendment issues, it addresses them in a novel way, using subject matter that is uniquely well suited to the task, and whose constitutional salience has been under-explored. Drawing on existing legal doctrine, aesthetics, and analytical philosophy, three celebrated law scholars show us how and why speech beyond words should be fundamental to our understanding of the First Amendment." -- Publisher's website

The digital economy : rethinking promise and peril in the age of networked intelligence / by Tapscott, Don,1947-(CARDINAL)725692;

""Twenty years of hindsight prove how deeply Tapscott understood the impact the Internet would have on the way we live, work, play and learn. This important book, now updated, is just as relevant today as it was then." John Chambers, Chairman and CEO, CiscoWith a new foreword by Eric Schmidt, Chief Executive of GoogleTwo decades ago, The Digital Economy changed the way the world thought about the Web and Internet. While everyone else was in awe of "websites" and "dot coms," Don Tapscott was among the first people to argue that the Internet would fully transform the nature of business and government. It goes without saying that his predictions were spot on. Now, in this new edition of his classic work, the New York Times bestselling author provides topical updates with a sweeping new analysis of how the Internet has changed business and society in the last 20 years, covering: Natural frictions between present-day Industrial Capitalism and the Digital Economy The radical effects of the Internet on traditional corporate structures and systems Dramatic changes in business collaboration and culture thanks to social media The rise of web-based analytics and how they have transformed business functions Government transparency, citizen empowerment, and the creation of public value Teaching and learning--revolutionary developments driven by digital content When Tapscott was writing the original edition in 1994, he was living in a world where Netscape had been just introduced as go-to browser, websites didn't do transactions, dial-up was the only way to get online, and mobile phones sightings were rare. Google, YouTube, eBay, Facebook, Twitter? They didn't exist. Preserving all the original text as it appeared 20 years ago, this new edition includes detailed essays ending each chapter--Tapscott's highly informed reflections on his predictions, along with new forecasts of where the digital world is headed. Praise for the new edition of The Digital Economy"1994 wasIncludes bibliographical references (pages 403-405) and index.a good year. Netscape Navigator and The Digital Economy. With this anniversary edition, Tapscott provides lucid insights for the next stage of these amazing times." Marc Andreessen, Co-founder and General Partner, Andreessen Horowitz"Brilliant. Governments can learn from The Digital Economy how to democratize access to prosperity, minimize social and economic divides and transform government and democracy for the 21st Century." Enrique Peña Nieto, President of Mexico "We're now into three decades of terrific insights and analysis from Don Tapscott about the digital revolution! Read this book!" Ajay Banga, President and CEO, Mastercard"In this fascinating reflection of predictions and trends from the past 20 years, Don Tapscott continues to provide valuable insights into the opportunities and challenges for business, government, and wider society in our increasingly digital and connected world." Indra K. Nooyi, Chairman and CEO, PepsiCo"20 years ago Don Tapscott showed again that he had his finger on the pulse of the digital world. His new perspective, insights, and analysis should be required reading for everyone from students to CEOs." Bill McDermott, CEO, SAP"The Digital Economy was a pioneering work--a watershed. The 20th Anniversary Edition has unsettling reflections on the past and profound insights for our collective future." Georg Kell, Executive Director, UN Global Compact"Given Don's foresight over the last 20 years, businesses who do not carefully monitor the trends he outlines about the next few years will do so at their own peril."

national security and criminal threats. Together, we responded to numerous crisis incidents, such as the terrorist bombings of the Boston Marathon and the shootings at the Navy Yard in Washington, DC. We confronted a continued surge of cyber attacks against targets ranging from everyday citizens to our largest and most successful businesses. And we stopped those who would strike at the heart of our communities-from violent gangs and white-collar criminals to child predators and corrupt public officials. A glimpse of the challenges we faced-and what we achieved together-can be found in this latest edition of The FBI Story, our annual collection of news and feature articles from the Bureau's public website. Here you can read about some of our most successful recent major investigations and operations. These include a three-day nationwide sweep targeting child prostitution in which we identified and rescued more than 100 young victims and arrested more than 150 pimps; the rescue of a 5-year-old boy held captive in a heavily armed bunker in Alabama; and uncovering of the largest domestic bribery and bid-rigging scheme in the history of federal contracting cases-one that siphoned more the $30 million dollars of taxpayer money. This edition of the FBI Story also highlights some of the Bureau's remarkable capabilities. You will find a multi-part series on our elite Hostage Rescue Team-which marked its 30th anniversary this past year-and a feature on the Terrorist Explosive Device Analytical Center (TEDAC)-an FBI-established, multi-agency operation that celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2013.
