Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Capitalizing on the talents of a multigenerational work force is the key to future business success. Sherri Elliott recognizes that and gives sound advice.” —Leslie Elliott, president, Toni & Guy, USA For the first time in history, the American workforce is comprised of four distinct generations—Traditionalists, Boomers, Xers, and Millennials. Additionally, today’s workforce brings with it a new set of challenges and opportunities: the looming labor shortage, sagging productivity, knowledge transfer, the language barrier, and stereotypes. Ties to Tattoos offers innovative ways to recruit, reward, manage, motivate, train, and retain, all within a generationally diverse workplace. Understanding generational issues is one of the best new tools for resolving conflicts and boosting productivity. Ties to Tattoos provides keys for understanding these issues and strategies to leverage multigenerational differences in ways that make companies stronger. The creative people strategies described throughout the book set the bar for companies in the coming decade with the sustainable competitive advantage engaged and committed employees. “Ties to Tattoos provides thought-provoking realities you need to consider. It affords actionable ideas on how to gain better understanding of what drives today’s workforce to deliver exceptional results.” —George Killebrew, Senior Vice-President of Corporate Sponsorships, Dallas Mavericks “Provides very helpful insights into the nature and reasons for these generational differences and offers strategies for leveraging them to an organization’s advantage. While the commonalities between generations may be much greater than the differences, knowing how to recognize and manage the differences can make the leadership challenge less daunting.” —Susan R. Meisinger, SPHR, past president, Society for Human Resource Management

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling illustrator Wendy MacNaughton and bestselling author Isaac Fitzgerald--the stories behind the tattoos that chefs proudly wear, with their signature recipes. Winner of the International Association of Culinary Professionals [IACP] Cookbook Design Award. Chefs take their tattoos almost as seriously as their knives. From gritty grill cooks in backwoods diners to the executive chefs at the world's most popular restaurants, it's hard to find a cook who doesn't sport some ink. Knives & Ink features the tattoos of more than sixty-five chefs from all walks of life and every kind of kitchen, including 2014 James Beard Award-winner Jamie Bissonnette, Alaska-fishing-boat cook Mandy Lamb, Toro Bravo's John Gorham, and many more. Each tattoo has a rich, personal story behind it: Danny Bowien of Mission Chinese Food remembers his mother with fiery angel wings on his forearms, and Dominique Crenn of Michelin two-starred Atelier Crenn bears ink that reminds her to do “anything in life that you put your heart into.” Like the dishes these chefs have crafted over the years, these tattoos are beautiful works of art. Knives & Ink delves into the wide and wonderful world of chef tattoos and shares their fascinating backstories, along with personal recipes from many of the chefs.

Book Inked

  • Author : Janet E. Kusiak
  • Publisher : Abingdon Press
  • Release : 2013-02-01
  • ISBN : 1426770502
  • Pages : 198 pages

Download or read book Inked written by Janet E. Kusiak and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tattoo can tell a lot about a person. Some reflect a rebellious season, like the demons that cover Josh Hamilton of the Texas Rangers. Some express religious ties, like actor Mark Wahlberg’s once tattooed rosary. Some are symbols of love and loyalty; Some serve as remembrances, like rapper Lil Wayne’s teardrops, representing deaths of loved ones. Inked by Janet E. Kusiak and Kimberly D. Goad uses the language of tattoos to explore the question: what has marked your life? Is it a deep well of pain? Is it emotional baggage? Is it depression? In spite of events that are so deeply etched into our hearts, we have the power to change the marks that life makes on us. An estimated quarter of Americans ages 18-50 have a tattoo. What better way to show how one of the most polarizing of cultural icons can, in fact, be a metaphor for what people have in common? Using stories and slang from tattoo culture, the authors look at the new way Christ desires that we be inked by Him, as the authors explore the marks that have been made on our hearts.
