    Listen to full audiobook for free : https://audiobookzap.com/free Title: The Power of NoticingSubtitle: What the Best Leaders SeeCategories: Career, Entrepreneurship, Leadership, ManagementAuthor: Max BazermanNarrator: Holter GrahamPublisher: Simon & Schuster AudioRelease date: 08-05-2014Language: EnglishSummary:From Harvard Business School professor and co-director of the Harvard Kennedy School's Center for Public Leadership: a guide to making better decisions, noticing important information in the world around you, and improving leadership skills. Imagine your advantage in negotiations, decision-making, and leadership if you could teach yourself to see, and evaluate, information that others overlook. The Power of Noticing provides the blueprint for accomplishing precisely that. Max Bazerman, an expert in the field of applied behavioral psychology, draws on three decades of research and his experience instructing Harvard Business School MBAs and corporate executives to teach you how to notice and act on information that may not be immediately obvious. Drawing on a wealth of real-world examples, from the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster to Bernie Madoff's Ponzi scheme, Bazerman diagnoses what information went ignored in these situations, and why. Using many of the same case studies and thought experiments designed in his executive MBA classes, he challenges listeners to explore their cognitive blind spots, identify any salient details they are programmed to miss, and then take steps to ensure it won’t happen again.

    Goddamned Freaky Monsters Audiobook by Rick Gualtieri

    Listen to full audiobook for free : https://audiobookzap.com/free Title: Goddamned Freaky MonstersSubtitle: The Tome of Bill, Book 5Series: #5 in The Tome of BillCategories: Classic, Fantasy, Fiction, Horror, UrbanAuthor: Rick GualtieriNarrator: Christopher John FetherolfPublisher: Richard GualtieriRelease date: 08-05-2014Language: EnglishSummary:There are reasons we fear the night. Now he's trying to stop them. Three months have passed since the fateful encounter in New York City that ended with the disappearance of Bill Ryder - gamer, geek, and legendary vampire. Now he's back - reawakened halfway across the globe with no allies, clothing, or clue as to how he got there. The only thing he's certain of is that his captors plan to use him for their own nefarious ends and don't care how much blood they spill in the process. Escape might be the least of his worries, though. Civilization teeters on the brink of chaos. Mythical beasts, once thought the stuff of fantasy, are breaking through the veil, intent on waging war against mankind. At their forefront stands an ancient evil, the last remnant of a people thought long dead, and it's about to cut a swath of destruction through the world not seen since biblical times. Bill's only chance is to reclaim his life, reconcile with his friends, and muster every bit of attitude he can - because if he fails, Hell on Earth will become far more than just a corny saying.

    The Memory of the Temple and the Making of the Rabbis Audiobook by Naftali S. Cohn

    Listen to full audiobook for free : https://audiobookzap.com/free Title: The Memory of the Temple and the Making of the RabbisCategories: Ancient, History, Jewish Life, JudaismAuthor: Naftali S. CohnNarrator: Steven Jay CohenPublisher: University Press AudiobooksRelease date: 08-04-2014Language: EnglishSummary:When the rabbis composed the Mishnah in the late second or early third century C.E., the Jerusalem Temple had been destroyed for more than a century. Why, then, do the Temple and its ritual feature so prominently in the Mishnah? Against the view that the rabbis were reacting directly to the destruction and asserting that nothing had changed, Naftali S. Cohn argues that the memory of the Temple served a political function for the rabbis in their own time. They described the Temple and its ritual in a unique way that helped to establish their authority within the context of Roman dominance. At the time the Mishnah was created, the rabbis were not the only ones talking extensively about the Temple: other Judaeans (including followers of Jesus), Christians, and even Roman emperors produced texts and other cultural artifacts centered on the Jerusalem Temple. Looking back at the procedures of Temple ritual, the rabbis created in the Mishnah a past and a Temple in their own image, which lent legitimacy to their claim to be the only authentic purveyors of Jewish tradition and the traditional Jewish way of life.
