Brightest Heaven of Invention: A Christian Guide to Six

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Leithart, Peter, PUBLISHER: Canon Press, Shakespeare was, as Caesar says of Cassius, "a great observer," able to see and depict patterns of events and character. He understood how politics is shaped by the clash of men with various colorings of self-interest and idealism, how violence breeds violence, how fragile human beings create masks and disguises for protection, how schemers do the same for advancement, how love can grow out of hate and hate out of love. Dare anyone say that these insights are irrelevant to living in the real world? For many in an older generation, the Bible and the Collected Shakespeare were the two indispensable books, and thus their sense of life and history was shaped by the best and best-told stories. And they were the wiser for it. Literature abstracts from the complex events of life (just as we do every day) and can reveal patterns that are like the patterns of events in the real world. Studying Literature can give us sensitivity to those patterns and lead towards true wisdom. Acquista Ora

From basics through the advanced, it explains the concepts that underlie the keystrokes and mouse clicks and emphasizes how they can be used to solve real problems. ""Mastering Excel "(R) " "is an excellent book that both students and instructors will like. I have taught college courses from this book and must say that it includes everything you need to know about spreadsheets, and nothing that will not help you. The exercises in each section are also very useful and vary from easy to challenging. But what I like the most about "Mastering Excel "(R) is that it requires and develops critical thinking skills, while students implement their ideas in a very practical context. I have even had students who have learned the material in the book, and then found jobs as a result of how well they know Excel(R).""- Fred J. Rispoli, Dowling College"

The Talent Edge: A Behavioral Approach to Hiring,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: David S. Cohen, PUBLISHER: Wiley, "A practical step-by-step approach to hiring the right person." Every hiring manager knows that the traditional hiring and interviewing process is a poor tool for predicting organizational fit and future on-the-job success. Behavioral interviewing can improve your chances of picking the right candidate two to five times over traditional processes. It focuses on how the candidate works rather than on skills, qualifications, and impressions. "The Talent Edge" shows how you can develop a concrete understanding of what your own top performers do differently than the majority of their peers, and how to translate that knowledge into a better hiring system. While using case studies from organizations that have successfully transformed their hiring practices, the book articulates the business case for a Behavioral Interviewing system, and provides a roadmap for implementing it. Comprehensive coverage includes: how to write job profiles and translate them into questions and answers that can be used in the interview; how to prepare for the interview, ask questions, and probe for the right information. The book also offers advice on how behaviors that are defined and proven to be useful in the hiring process can be incorporated into performance management, career development, and succession planning.
