Atul Gawande’s book, The Checklist Manifesto introduces the checklist: a modified solution to help professionals absorb and master how they execute certain essential tasks that define their responsibilities in their respective industries. Present-day roles in the industry are more intricate in nature, prompting more rigorous training and technology at a more advanced level. However, training and technological advancement are simply not always sufficient. Gawande’s alternative and simplistic solution is based on a checklist that was originally introduced by the American Air Force. This checklist served as a guide to help pilots in maneuvering sophisticated types of aircrafts. Modified into an innovative checklist that suits modern-day industries and professions, it became an effective tool that equipped doctors and nurses worldwide in delivering quick, complete and professional response to all types of accidents and calamities. Aside from the healthcare industry, Gawande’s checklist eventually benefitted businesses such as skyscraper construction and investment banking, along with life-saving protocols involved in disaster response procedures. From Austria to Michigan, real-life accounts of how the checklist has been tremendously helpful are disclosed. These accounts include how an emergency checklist was a key factor in saving a drowning patient who had been submerged underwater for approximately 30 minutes; as well how a cleanliness checklist implemented in intensive care units was instrumental in eradicating a life-threatening infection commonly contracted in hospitals. Gawande, a public health researcher, surgeon and writer, further explains the way checklists trigger urgent and outstanding progress especially in professions where time, precision and efficiency are crucial. The struggle is over for the hardworking workforce of today’s industries. The Checklist Manifesto is the perfect book for people striving to reach the level of competence needed in executing the undertakings that come with their job.

This book is not intended to replace the original book. Instead, we highly encourage you to buy the full version. In this relevant and enlightening book, bestselling author of Deep Work shares a philosophy for technology that has helped millions of lives. Digital minimalists exist everywhere—and they’re calm, happy people who can cultivate connections without constantly looking into their phones. They can completely focus on a good book, an artistic project, or even a leisurely morning run. They can enjoy with their friends and family without feeling the urge to use their phones to document it. They are always informed about the news but aren’t overwhelmed by it. They don’t fear missing out because they already know which ones give them meaning and satisfaction. Newport gave a name to this quiet revolution and create a persuasive case of its importance in the world saturated in technology. He provides simple advice—like turning off notification—or even having a “digital Sabbath” for us to get our sense of control back into our lives. He envisions a society where we can unplug completely without experiencing the demands of family, friends, and work. What we need is a conscious method to decide what tools we need, the purpose of those tools, and the conditions under which we’ll use them. Taking on diverse real-life examples, from Amish communities to stressed parents to Silicon Valley programmers, Newport shares the common practices of digital minimalists with ideas underpinning them. He shows that digital minimalists rethink their relationship with technology, rediscover the beauty of the offline world, and reconnect with their inner selves through periods of solitude. He also shares some insights on how we can integrate those practices in our own lives—which starts with a thirty-day “digital declutter.” Technology is neither good nor bad. What we need it to use it to help our goals and values rather than allowing it to use us. Digital Minimalism shows us how. Wait no more, take action and get this book now!

This was the biggest investment of his career. Larry Page and Sergey Brin had amazing technology, entrepreneurial energy, and great ambitions—but they had no real business plan. To change the world or even simply survive, Google had to make strong choices on priorities while keeping their team on track. They needed to know when to pull the plug or even fail fast. They needed timely, relevant data to monitor their progress—to measure what mattered. Doerr helped them with a proven approach to operating excellence: Objectives and Key Results. He discovered OKRs in the 1970s when he was an engineer at Intel, where Andy Grove, the greatest manager of his era, drove the amazingly run company. As a venture capitalist, Doerr shared Grove’s brainchild with more than fifty companies and whenever it was faithfully practiced, it worked. Objectives define what we want to achieve while key results are about how those goals will be attained through specific, measurable actions within a set time frame. Everyone’s goals—from entry-level to CEO are transparent to the whole company. Its benefits are profound as OKRs help with an organization’s most important work—they focus their effort and foster coordination. They help keep employees on track and they link objectives across teams to strengthen the entire company. OKRs eventually also improve workplace satisfaction and employee retention. Doerr shares a broad range of in-depth look into various companies including the Gates Foundation and Bono to show the focus, agility, and explosive growth that OKRs have created in the leading organizations. This book will create a new generation of leaders that capture the same magic. Wait no more, take action and get this book now!

Simon Sinek started a movement in 2009 helping people become inspired at work and inspire people around them. Since then, he has inspired millions of people with his idea—including more than 28 million people who have watched his TED Talk which is the third most watched TED talks of all time. Sinek asks an essential question: Why do some people and organizations become more innovative, influential, and profitable than others? Why do some companies have greater loyalty from their customers and employees? Even among successful ones, why are so few able to repeat their success? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had one thing in common—they started with WHY. They discovered that people can’t buy a product, service, movement, or even idea unless they understand the WHY behind it. Start with Why shares how leaders—those who have the greatest influence in the world—think, act, and communicate in the same way. And it’s the opposite of what everybody else does. Sinek calls this concept the Golden Circle and it explains how organizations are built, movements are led, and people are inspired. And it starts with WHY.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A heartwarming memoir of love and faith from Hannah Brencher—founder of The World Needs More Love Letters—who has dedicated her life to showing total strangers that they are not alone in the world. Fresh out of college, Hannah Brencher moved to New York ready to change the world. Instead, she found a city full of people who knew where they were going and what they were doing and didn’t have time for a girl still trying to figure it all out. Lonely and depressed, she noticed a woman who looked like she felt the same way on the subway. Hannah did something strange—she wrote the woman a letter. She folded it, scribbled “If you find this letter, it’s for you…” on the front and left it behind. When she realized that it made her feel better, she started writing and leaving love notes all over the city—in doctor’s offices, in coat pockets, in library books, in bathroom stalls. Feeling crushed within a culture that only felt like connecting on a screen, she poured her heart out to complete strangers. She found solace in the idea that her words might brighten someone’s day. Hannah’s project took on a life of its own when she made an offer on her blog: She would handwrite a note and mail it to anyone who wanted one. Overnight, her inbox exploded with requests from people all over the world. Nearly 400 handwritten letters later, she started the website, The World Needs More Love Letters, which quickly grew. There is something about receiving a handwritten note that is so powerful in today’s digital era. If You Find This Letter chronicles Hannah’s attempts to bring more love into the world—and shows how she rediscovered her faith through the movement she started.
Download or read book Hunger written by Roxane Gay and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Bad Feminist: a searingly honest memoir of food, weight, self-image, and learning how to feed your hunger while taking care of yourself. “I ate and ate and ate in the hopes that if I made myself big, my body would be safe. I buried the girl I was because she ran into all kinds of trouble. I tried to erase every memory of her, but she is still there, somewhere. . . . I was trapped in my body, one that I barely recognized or understood, but at least I was safe.” In her phenomenally popular essays and long-running Tumblr blog, Roxane Gay has written with intimacy and sensitivity about food and body, using her own emotional and psychological struggles as a means of exploring our shared anxieties over pleasure, consumption, appearance, and health. As a woman who describes her own body as “wildly undisciplined,” Roxane understands the tension between desire and denial, between self-comfort and self-care. In Hunger, she explores her past—including the devastating act of violence that acted as a turning point in her young life—and brings readers along on her journey to understand and ultimately save herself. With the bracing candor, vulnerability, and power that have made her one of the most admired writers of her generation, Roxane explores what it means to learn to take care of yourself: how to feed your hungers for delicious and satisfying food, a smaller and safer body, and a body that can love and be loved—in a time when the bigger you are, the smaller your world becomes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if you could trust in getting the health care you need in ways that felt good and helped you thrive? What if the health system honored and valued queer and trans people’s lives, bodies and expertise? What if LGBTQ+ communities led and organized our own health care as a form of mutual aid? What if every aspect of our health care was rooted in a commitment to our healing, pleasure and liberation? LGBTQ+ health care doesn’t look like this today, but it could. This is the care we dream of.

It challenges readers to think differently about LGBTQ+ health and asks what it would look if our health care was rooted in a commitment to the flourishing and liberation of all LGBTQ+ people. This book is a calling out, a calling in and a call to action. It is a spell of healing and transformation, rooted in love.
