Acerca de esta escucha
Every get the feeling that your company culture is completely insane? That your organisation is inherently dysfunctional and seems to emphasize pointless drama over getting work done? The good news is that you’re right: Your company’s culture is screwed up. The bad news is that most everyone else’s company culture is throwing sparks too. Culture is the product of the people that you work with, and people are...really quite interesting, given all the ways that well-meaning people can screw things up.
Lost Allusions, is the fourth collection of annotated leadership columns from Keil Hubert, the American correspondent for London-based Business Technology magazine.
This audiobook includes 25 columns from Business Reporter online, each featuring extensive lessons-learned, insights, and advice.
In this audiobook, Keil deconstructs what workplace cultures are, how they affect workers, how they warp into destructive environments, and (most importantly) how you can influence your own office culture for the better. All of these columns are told and explained in terms of pop-culture touchstones - the "allusions" are to books and films that help to make sense of the ideas presented in this sociological exploration. In Lost Allusions, Keil Hubert delivers his longest and densest book to-date, written with his usual dry Texan sense of humour.

Historia
They actually have vastly different styles and backgrounds. Yet despite their differences, great managers share one common trait: They don’t hesitate to break virtually every rule held sacred by conventional wisdom. They don’t believe that, with enough training, a person can achieve anything he sets his mind to. They don’t try to help people overcome their weaknesses. And, yes, they even play favorites. In this longtime management bestseller, Gallup presents the remarkable findings of its massive in-depth study of great managers.

Historia
To lead is to live dangerously. It's romantic and exciting to think of leadership as all inspiration, decisive action, and rich rewards, but leading requires taking risks that can jeopardize your career and your personal life. It requires putting yourself on the line, disrupting the status quo, and surfacing hidden conflict. And when people resist and push back, there's a strong temptation to play it safe. Those who choose to lead plunge in, take the risks, and sometimes get burned.

More than 50 years since the passage of the Equal Pay Act, the wage gap still hovers at 80 percent, and only five percent of CEOs in the Fortune 500 are women. Today, rising up the ranks in many companies still often means cutthroat, win-at-all-costs tactics, where being the loudest voice in the room is more important than being the person with the best ideas for moving the company forward. Not surprisingly, most women don’t want to play this game.

Grounded in over two decades’ worth of scientific research and inspired by the popular class of the same name at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business, Acting with Power offers a new and eye-opening paradigm that overturns everything we thought we knew about the nature of power.
