The world needs leaders. Not just people holding titles, or elected into office whose only goal is to stay in their seat of power. But rather, it needs people with a clear vision, a compelling message, and the tools to leverage the power of their community to accomplish their goal. The Creator's Handbook is a concise study of the cognitive and psychological tools critical for aspiring leaders to adopt. It examines frameworks for optimizing your ability to find opportunities, for connecting with an audience, and for growing a motivated network of supporters.

It can either continue down a destructive path of conformity and standardization, or it can open up to the unique gifts that each student and teacher brings to the educative process. Pockets of Freedom champions the latter and proposes that educators, guided by their hearts' powerful intuition, create "pockets of freedom" within their teaching/learning environments to support the shift toward student-centered learning.

Behavioral economist Dan Ariely revolutionized the way we think about ourselves, our minds, and our actions in his books Predictably Irrational, The Upside of Irrationality, and The Honest Truth About Dishonesty.

L'uomo soffre per "l'insensatezza" del suo lavoro, per il suo sentirsi "soltanto un mezzo" "nell'universo dei mezzi", senza che all'orizzonte appaia una finalità prossima o una finalità ultima in grado di conferire senso. Sembra infatti che la tecnica non abbia altro scopo se non il proprio autopotenziamento. Di fronte a questa diagnosi, la psicoanalisi rivela tutta la sua impotenza, perché gli strumenti di cui dispone, se sono utilissimi per la comprensione delle dinamiche emotivo-relazionali, per i processi di simbolizzazione sono inefficaci.

With evocative storytelling and incisive research, Katie Rose Guest Pryal brings a new eye to the mental health crisis that higher education has faced for decades. Written from the perspective of a bipolar-autistic professor, A Light in the Tower is both a bracing account of the mental health crisis in higher education and a passionate and informed proposal for how to teach with mental health in mind.

Erziehung heute: was trägt, was kann weg? Der renommierte Erziehungsexperte und Kinderarzt Herbert Renz-Polster stellt immer wieder fest: Das Thema Autorität ist ein Knackpunkt, an dem viele Eltern den Eindruck haben, mit der bedürfnisorientierten Erziehung nicht weiterzukommen.

In diesem Hörbuch macht er fundiert und umsetzbar verständlich, wie sich Achtsamkeit, Respekt und Mitbestimmung mit Klarheit, Führung und Verantwortung verbinden lassen, und vermittelt ein klares Bild von einer guten Kindheit, ohne falsche Leuchttürme und Erziehungstrends.
