Download or read book The Star Factor written by William Seidman and published by AMACOM. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As much as we may encourage our employees that they all have their own unique strengths that they need to embrace for the good of the business, the truth is a select few produce more, sell more, and flat-out deliver better results than anyone else. And many days, if we’re honest, we wish we had three or four of each of these all-stars on the payroll. While cloning is still not possible, The Star Factor delivers the best of both worlds. Managers can learn how to unlock the wisdom and strengths of their brightest employees to spread throughout the office, while maintaining the individualism that truly is vital for any kind of team.This invaluable book has developed a unique system for transforming the knowledge of your most elite employees into actionable steps that help others internalize these new attitudes and behaviors--resulting in much-needed change and benefits to the entire organization. Already, the book’s proven Affirmative Leadership methodology has been successfully implemented, with astonishing results, by companies in a range of industries, leading some to double their forecasting accuracy rate and dramatically reduce employee turnover.Supported by recent breakthroughs in neuroscience, including research on motivation, learning, and achievement, this unique, must-have resource for every business presents a sustainable, people-centered system to build a culture of greatness that starts with the stars and spreads to every corner and every level of the organization.

Download or read book Factors and Factorizations of Graphs written by Jin Akiyama and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-06-21 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles the development of graph factors and factorizations. It pursues a comprehensive approach, addressing most of the important results from hundreds of findings over the last century. One of the main themes is the observation that many theorems can be proved using only a few standard proof techniques. This stands in marked contrast to the seemingly countless, complex proof techniques offered by the extant body of papers and books. In addition to covering the history and development of this area, the book offers conjectures and discusses open problems. It also includes numerous explanatory figures that enable readers to progressively and intuitively understand the most important notions and proofs in the area of factors and factorization.

Download or read book Tropical Circuit Complexity written by Stasys Jukna and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-12-08 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an enticing introduction to tropical circuits and their use as a rigorous mathematical model for dynamic programming (DP), which is one of the most fundamental algorithmic paradigms for solving combinatorial, discrete optimization problems. In DP, an optimization problem is broken up into smaller subproblems that are solved recursively. Many classical DP algorithms are pure in that they only use the basic (min,+) or (max,+) operations in their recursion equations. In tropical circuits, these operations are used as gates. Thanks to the rigorous combinatorial nature of tropical circuits, elements from the Boolean and arithmetic circuit complexity can be used to obtain lower bounds for tropical circuits, which play a crucial role in understanding the limitations and capabilities of these computational models. This book aims to offer a toolbox for proving lower bounds on the size of tropical circuits. In this work, the reader will find lower-bound ideas and methods that have emerged in the last few years, with detailed proofs. Largely self-contained, this book is meant to be approachable by graduate students in mathematics and computer science with a special interest in circuit complexity.
Download or read book Beyond the Scandals written by G. Lloyd Rediger and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent sexual scandals have rocked the North American religious scene and left the churches concerned about credibility and liability. What are the bounds of clergy sexuality? What constitutes misconduct, and what legal, moral, and religious norms apply? More broadly, what has gone wrong, and how can clergy understand their own sexuality and their lives of service? Lloyd Rediger is a uniquely qualified national expert on all these questions with a strong message for clergy about their sexuality, spirituality, and behavior. In this timely volume, which incorporates material from his earlier volume Ministry and Sexuality, Rediger brings his extensive research, clinical experience, and theological insights to bear on the topic. He offers a comprehensive, authoritative account of clergy sexuality and sexual ethics with up-to-date legal information; helpful research on ethnic, gender, and denominational factors; a religious and moral framework for understanding clergy sexuality; and analysis of the sexual problems encountered by clergy. (Learn more about Dr. Rediger at his website.) This volume could well become the standard pro-fessional resource for clergy in a new era of increased accountability and moral reflection.

Download or read book Fete of Combinatorics and Computer Science written by Gyula O.H. Katona and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-02-14 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discrete Mathematics and theoretical computer science are closely linked research areas with strong impacts on applications and various other scientific disciplines. Both fields deeply cross fertilize each other. One of the persons who particularly contributed to building bridges between these and many other areas is László Lovász, whose outstanding scientific work has defined and shaped many research directions in the past 40 years. A number of friends and colleagues, all top authorities in their fields of expertise gathered at the two conferences in August 2008 in Hungary, celebrating Lovász' 60th birthday. It was a real fete of combinatorics and computer science. Some of these plenary speakers submitted their research or survey papers prior to the conferences. These are included in the volume "Building Bridges". The other speakers were able to finish their contribution only later, these are collected in the present volume.
