Download or read book Debugging Teams written by Brian W. Fitzpatrick and published by "O'Reilly Media, Inc.". This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the course of their 20+-year engineering careers, authors Brian Fitzpatrick and Ben Collins-Sussman have picked up a treasure trove of wisdom and anecdotes about how successful teams work together. Their conclusion? Even among people who have spent decades learning the technical side of their jobs, most haven’t really focused on the human component. Learning to collaborate is just as important to success. If you invest in the "soft skills" of your job, you can have a much greater impact for the same amount of effort. The authors share their insights on how to lead a team effectively, navigate an organization, and build a healthy relationship with the users of your software. This is valuable information from two respected software engineers whose popular series of talks—including "Working with Poisonous People"—has attracted hundreds of thousands of followers.

Download or read book The NHL written by D'Arcy Jenish and published by Anchor Canada. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In-depth research meets great storytelling in the history of an organization that has been a talking point and newsmaker for 100 years. The National Hockey League--born in a Montreal hotel room on November 26, 1917--has much to celebrate as it approaches its centenary. Millions of fans from Montreal to Miami and Edmonton to Anaheim attend NHL games each year, millions more watch on TV and the league pays its best players multi-million annual salaries. Over the course of its first century, the NHL's fortunes have ebbed and flowed. It has experienced setbacks and triumphs and innumerable crises. The league has awarded many franchises only to see some of them falter, fail and fold. The board of governors--which has included rich eccentrics and at least one future convict--has sometimes been fractured by men who loathed each other. How on earth has the NHL survived? The answer lies in the remarkable fact that it has had only five presidents and one commissioner. Two of these chiefs were stop-gaps. For the balance of league's ninety-plus years, four men have shaped and guided its fortunes and controlled the tough, hard-nosed, sometimes unruly owners who constituted the board of governors. This is the story of two perpetual struggles--the one on the ice and the one going on behind the scenes to keep the whole enterprise afloat. D'Arcy Jenish was granted unprecedented access to previously unpublished league files, including revelatory minutes of board meetings, and conducted dozens of hours of interviews with league executives, including commissioner Gary Bettman and former president John Ziegler, as well as well as owners, coaches, general managers and player representatives. He now reveals for the first time the true story behind some of the most significant events of the contemporary era. This is a definitive, revelatory chonicle that no serious hockey fan will want to be without.

Book excerpt: The Mower Boy tells the story of a remarkable man. Born with cerebral palsy, Roger Grein faced many challenges, but he never gave up on a goal and never complained about his circumstances. A man of strong faith, Roger maintained a thankful attitude throughout his life. Even though he had earned a Bachelor’s degree in Finance and a Master’s in Business Administration, finding traditional employment was difficult for Roger because of his disability. Undaunted, he became a successful entrepreneur with his own tax consulting business. The reader will discover how Roger also became involved in his community in a number of ways, among them, as a volunteer coach and manager for girls’ softball teams for thirty-six years. He was an exceptional coach and took his team to national championships, and to international competitions as far away as Moscow. Grateful to God for granting him a happy life, despite his disabilities, Roger was generous with those incapable of helping themselves. He supported many charities within his local communities, as well as abroad. Roger’s conviction to help those in need led him to his current position as Founder and President of Magnified Giving. This 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focuses on educating youth in philanthropy, so that the students of today can bring about a positive transformation to the world of tomorrow. Roger is truly a change-maker, a hero to many, and a dear friend to those who know him. This book is an inspirational must-read!
