Putting Emotional Intelligence to Work offers a new paradigm of
communication for the 21st-century workplace. Beginning with the
thoughts of communication pioneer Carl Rogers, this book covers the
origins and history of emotional intelligence, why it is essential
at this point in the changing marketplace, how to delegate and
negotiate more effectively, and how to change yourself to become a
more effective player. An EQ (Emotional Quotient) survey helps you
determine where you are on the scale of executive intelligence.
Diplomacy is used primarily to advance the interests of a state beyond its borders, within a set of global norms intended to assure a degree of international harmony. As a result of internal and international armed conflicts, the need to negotiate peace through an emerging system of international humanitarian and criminal law has required nations to use diplomacy to negotiate 'peace versus justice' trade-offs. Justice and Diplomacy is the product of a research project sponsored by the Academie Diplomatique Internationale and the International Bar Association, and focuses on specific moments of collision or contradiction in diplomatic and judicial processes during the humanitarian crises in Bosnia, Rwanda, Kosovo, Darfur, and Libya. The five case studies present critical issues at the intersection of justice and diplomacy, including the role of timing, signalling, legal terminology, accountability, and compliance. Each case study focuses on a specific moment and dynamic, highlighting the key issues and lessons learned.

A "Washington Post "Notable Book
The first book to gather first-hand accounts of successful practices, and thinking habits, of sports legends and super-athletes - from across sports including football, baseball, and basketball to boxing, golf, car-racing, and swimming - this work holds lessons that can power not only athletic success, but winning in any daily challenges of life or work. The result of years of research, Psychology of Champions offers the very personal words of stellar athletes who explain how they overcame such obstacles as fear, discouragement, and anxiety, and were able to move on to success. Each story - from those of baseball great Ted Williams, basketball star Michael Jordon, football's famed Deion Sanders, NASCAR's, and dozens more from across sports - is unique, but the authors determine when all is said and done the overriding variables accounting for the greatest success fall into three categories - motivation, confidence, and concentration. Barrell and Ryback spell out the rules for such success after each section in this absorbing book. The result is a book that not only entertains and educates us with first-hand accounts of ever-popular sports heroes, but also instructs atheletes, amateur or professional, and arguably anyone with a goal to achieve in work or life. In-the-moment accounts reveal just what to do in various critical periods of sports competition - from being at bat in baseball, to making an instantaneous decision as a quarterback, firing the winning basket in the dying moments of a game, or launching the winning move in boxing or judo. Barrell and Ryback draw the lessons together in what they term The Focus Edge mindset. It is a mindset, and this is a book, that takesgreatness and makes it accessible to you and me, declared one former Olympian.
