Hardback. Condition: Good. If you want your company to thrive, you need to break one of the oldest unwritten rules of leadership. Leaders in nearly every industry have learned to keep a professional 'distance' between themselves and the people who report to them -- to avoid getting too close or too personal. This unwritten rule of leadership is pervasive and quietly destructive, and, little by little, keeping ourselves at arm's length destroys trust, collaboration, and the very fabric of organizations. When Tom Gartland became president of Avis Budget Group, North America, he wanted the corporate culture to become more 'open and connected' -- so he started with himself. His message was 'business is personal -- very personal.' As he grew closer and connected more with those he was leading, he became a more effective leader, and those around him were inspired to create unprecedented results. Tom found that when we truly open up and care about the people we work with, we can transform organizations into sanctuaries where people feel a deep connection to one another, a profound sense of being part of an important mission, and extraordinary engagement in their work. The result? Employees who feel valued generate exceptional profits. After applying this business philosophy at Avis, not only did Tom see an increase in employee morale, he also saw a significant increase in the company's bottom line. In Lead with Heart, Tom provides an unconventional approach to business leadership, including advice and strategies on how to open yourself up as a leader, recognize potential in your employees, and increase employees' trust in you and the company. Lead with Heart is the revolutionary leadership book that will help managers and employees at all levels grow their businesses by connecting, honestly and meaningfully, with the people they lead.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. With the prospect of a never-ending war on terror before us, the need for a Department of Peace in the federal government has never been more urgent. Bills for establishing one have been introduced to Congress throughout the twentieth century until today. The authors of this compelling book of essays contend that the costs of war always outweigh the benefits, even for the victors. They argue that the only way we're going to be able to stop fighting senseless wars is if we have a division of the federal government devoted every day to making peace. In We Need a Department of Peace readers learn the history of such a proposal through original documents and hear new arguments calling for such a department. The story begins in 1793 with A Plan of a Peace-Office for the United States by Benjamin Rush, one of the Founding Fathers and a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Frederick Schuman's Why a Department of Peace? makes the case for the creation of a Department of Peace and tells the story of twentieth century efforts through the late 1960s. Mary Liebman, a prominent activist, continues the legislative story into the 1970s. Finally, Charlie Keil's Waging Peace is a manifesto for the new millennium and his Resolution for a Department of Peace sets out the core legislative program in only one hundred fifty words.…
