Paperback. Zustand: Fair. Unlock the key to building successful businesses in challenging international markets. Why do so many investors fail in frontier and emerging markets? How can entrepreneurs increase their odds of success in developing economies? In The Culture Key, Curt Laird explores the idea that entrepreneurs and investors in these markets struggle not because they lack business acumen, but because they do not develop intercultural intelligence. Laird is a seasoned entrepreneur who has worked in over 30 countries and built successful businesses in Afghanistan - including a billion dollar mobile phone company. In this book, he unpacks the underlying cultural principles that govern business in these geographies and offers a roadmap forward. The book introduces the Belief Tool - a lens to identify, interpret, and respond to the cultures in new markets. If you can decode the dominant worldviews, cultural dimensions, and mindsets that shape people's behavior, you can navigate cultural minefields with confidence - whether you're determining where to invest, negotiating a critical deal, or building a high-performance team. Laird also digs deep into common cross-cultural challenges, providing frameworks that Western business leaders can use to inform the way they deal with customers, employees, clients, and other stakeholders in frontier markets. Combining on-the-ground stories with actionable insights, The Culture Key is a must-read for anyone who wants to find, build, and manage thriving businesses around the world.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. What the book is about: This autobiography of Rev. Curt's spiritual journey offers a commentary on why much of the theology and current practices of the Christian Faith are no longer viable for the 21st century Christian. His historical insights, reviews of the Aramaic and Greek texts, and metaphorical views are based on his life-long study of the Christian scriptures. Today's Christians have accepted advancements in many areas, including science, technology and medicine, but would not want to be treated medically by a doctor of antiquity or give up their computer and smart phone for the quill and parchment. The only exception has been in religion. Many Christians still want to honor the ethics, dogmas and rituals of an antiquated idea of God. Such antiquated theology sometimes creates a faith of exclusivity that forgets the basic teaching of Jesus to love one another. Curt brings to this discussion the universal principle of Divine Love that is found in all the religious traditions. All humanity, everything in the universe was created in God's love regardless of race, color, gender, or creed. We all share the same DNA, and while all traditions honor the one God, there are many paths to that Divine Love. For Rev. Curt, the simple fundamental truth of the Christian faith for the 21st century is found in Micah 6:8, What does the Lord require of you? To serve justice, love mercy and walk humbly with your God.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Shame is now recognized as the Master Emotion. Left unchecked, It is a force that de-humanizes individuals, families, churches, communities, and nations. David F. Allen, MD, MPH, is an internationally recognized authority on addictions. He is credited with identifying the coming crack cocaine epidemic as early as 1984. Now, in his private practice and the treatment clinics that he established in Nassau, Bahamas and Washington, DC, he has seen a shame epidemic. Shame is not just at the center of substance abuse, it is at the center of anger, arrogance, failure in families, finances, and relationships. Shame is the source of our self-destructive behaviors, i.e., those things we do that we do not understand, do not want to do, but feel compelled to do. Through personal stories from his professional practice as a psychoanalyst and his deep knowledge of the Scriptures, Dr. Allen lays out the scope and depth of shame. But more importantly, he identifies shame-busting techniques that can be used in every day life to silence the shame voices that haunt us. Dr. Allen's moving re-telling of biblical stories from King David and how he overcame the shame of failure to the shame cross of Jesus Christ who had no shame of his own, but carried our shame for us, will give the reader hope. His invitation to stillness in silence will arm the hurting person with the shame-busting power of contemplation. Life is wounded and, like Adam and Eve, we try to cover our shame with the fig leaves of our Ego Addictive False Self. Deep compassion, a powerful intellect, thirty years of treating others, his own battles with shame and his incarnational faith in God leads the reader into the presence of the Face that never turns away and the Love that never let's us go.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Was there ever a year in golf like 1960? It was the year that the sport and its vivid personalities exploded on the consciousness of the nation, when the past, present, and future of the game collided. Television, still a new medium, provided a fresh window to the show and enabled this rich man's sport to win over millions of new fans. Here was Arnold Palmer, the working man's hero, sweating, chain-smoking, shirt-tail flying, and winning, it seemed, every tournament with a last-second charge. Ben Hogan, the greatest player of the 1950s, was Palmer's opposite, a perfectionist battling the twin demons of age and nerves. And making his debut in the big time was a chunky, crew-cut college kid who seemed to have the makings of a champion--twenty-year-old Jack Nicklaus. Would Palmer win the mythical Grand Slam of golf? Could Hogan win one more major tournament? Was Nicklaus the real thing? Even more than an intimate portrait of these men and their exciting times, The Eternal Summer is also an entertaining, perceptive, and hypnotically readable exploration of professional golf in America.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Golf hero Ben Hogan bore a mystique that still captivates golfers: a silent, almost eerie concentration that intimidated his opponents, a presence any politician or actor would envy, and an ability to hit a ball so squarely it sizzled as it left his club. Hogan won four US Opens in six years, three after a near-fatal automobile accident. His injuries limited him to six tournaments in 1953, but he won five. It was arguably the greatest year ever in the history of professional golf. But in the midst of the acclaim, myth distorted and obscured Ben Hogan. No one knew what drove him to practice until his hands bled, or what private demons built the high walls that surrounded him. Here at last is the Hogan no reader has ever encountered. Sampson draws on interviews with fellow golf legends Byron Nelson, Jack Nicklaus, and Sam Snead to present an in-depth portrait of a man with bullet-proof confidence and single-mindedness, a man who turned the negatives he encountered into a life of glory and achievement. From the poverty of his youth and the suicide of his father to the failure and conflict that stalked him into middle age, Hogan traces an unforgettable portrait of an amazing man.…
