- Bloodsword Trilogy Part I
163,95 kr. Jaykriss is a typical teenager. He's bored with school, the girl he loves doesn't even know he's alive, and he and his mother disagree-a lot. The village Jaykriss lives in lies deep in a primevalforest. Life there is simple, and is predicated upon day-to-day survival. As his father is gone, Jaykriss must provide for his mother and sister. That is his primary role in life--and he is good at it. But Jaykriss is restless. He is curious and inquisitive. And he wants desperately to avenge the death of his father Glyndich--a warrior killed by a fearsome dragon known only as the Thrax. So how does a mere boy of fourteen who is simply trying to keep his family alive kill a legendary beast thought to be nearly invincible? To kill the Thrax, one must first find it. On a routine hunting trip, Jaykriss and his best friend encounter the Thrax at last. The terrifying creature chases them mercilessly through the darkening forest--and the boys eventually stumble into the refuge of an eccentric hermit whose home is filled with books from ancient times. The hermit teaches Jaykriss that all is not as it seems in his world. The mutants and dragons that populate their world are actually relics of a long-ago biological disaster. The Dark King, a ruler they revere as a god, is a vicious tyrant who will do anything to stay in power. Jaykriss realizes that there may be more to his life than he initially thought. He might be able to someday vanquish the Thrax. He may, in fact, be The One who Leads, prophesied to save the entire human race. But is Jaykriss truly ready for his destiny--or will that destiny consume him?

- Busting The Survey Myths That Are Undermining Your Results
208,95 kr. New York Times bestseller Mark Murphy reveals how to shake up your employee engagement survey to address the new realities of 2023 and beyond. Currently, too many organizations use surveys that haven't fundamentally changed in decades, they share their data with employees haphazardly (if at all), their survey questions are too abstract and unactionable, and their survey scales are actually hindering improvements in their scores. That's why this book challenges the big myths and outdated thinking about employee engagement surveys. We'll explore why you should never ask a survey question you don't know how to fix, the reason you can't ask people if they're satisfied, how 5-point scales are actually hurting your scores, and why you should ignore your lowest scores. You'll discover the best survey questions to drive immediate action and improvement, specific actions that managers can take to improve employee engagement, how to fix the big communication mistake that undermines most survey efforts, and much more!

HARD GoalsK shows you how to change your thinking and get on the path to tremendous achievement!"--Marshall Goldsmith, world-renowned executive coach and author of the New York Times bestsellers MOJO and What Got You Here Won't Get You There"Hard Goals is full of fascinating insights regarding how to get yourself to achieve things you never thought possible, and Murphy's key ideas have strong research support. . . . If you want to achieve something great or important in your life, this is the book for you."--Edwin A. Locke, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus, University of Maryland"If you want a mediocre life, set ho-hum goals. If you want a life filled with excellence and meaning, set HARD Goals. This book shows you how to set HARD Goals and love every minute of achieving them. The end result? Winning in life and unparalleled fulfillment."Lyle Nelson, four-time Olympian and author of Spirit of Champions"Every company has goals these days. So why do most goals fall short? Why do leaders keep setting the same failed goals year after year? HARD Goals gives you the cutting-edge science to engage every employee in pursuing and achieving extraordinary goals. No more procrastination, foot-dragging, or giving up. With HARD Goals, your organization will achieve astonishing results. Every CEO, manager, and employee needs to read this book!"Kevin M. Andrews, President, SmartBenWant to increase sales? Get promoted? Change the world? There's a goal for that . . .Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, the school teacher next door who amassed a million-dollar fortune . . . Did these people succeed because they were more motivated or because they were more disciplined? The answer to both questions is yes--but not in the ways you might think. Anyone can achieve extraordinary things. The secret is setting goals that test the very limits of your abilities. In Hard Goals, Mark Murphy, the acclaimed author of Hundred Percenters, explains the science behind getting from where you are to where you want to be in your career, business, and life.Leadership IQ, Murphy's top-rated leadership training consultancy, studied nearly 5,000 workers from virtually every field and found that extraordinary goals--the kind that got America to the moon and back, developed the iPod, created nanotechnology, and helped individuals overcome tremendous personal adversity--stimulate and engage the brain in ways that are profoundly different from the goals most people set.Research conducted for this book revealed that people who set Hard goals are up to 75 percent more fulfilled than people with easy goals. In these pages, Mark Murphy explains how success, and the satisfaction it brings, comes from knowing how to set goals that are: Heartfelt--have an emotional attachment, "scratch an existential itch."Animated--motivated by a vision, that movie that plays over and over in your mind.Required--imbued with such a sense of urgency that you have no other choice but to start acting on them right here, right now.Difficult--the greatest achievements come from the toughest challenges--but they also leave you feeling stronger, smarter, and more fulfilled.People set goals all the time, but the majority end up unfulfilled or abandoned. With all the challenges facing us today, we could use a little more achievement.Hard Goals can help us get there by offering the hard science and practical techniques to conquer procrastination and unlock your brain's potential for realizing your goals.
