What's worse, each time he cheats death someone else dies in his place.

And when the mysterious box is opened, he discovers he has only twenty-four hours to save New York City from certain destruction, in Dying Is My Business by Nicholas Kaufmann.
Book Synopsis Death by Meeting by : Patrick M. Lencioni
Download or read book Death by Meeting written by Patrick M. Lencioni and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-06-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A straightforward framework for creating engaging and exciting business meetings Casey McDaniel had never been so nervous in his life. In just ten minutes, The Meeting, as it would forever be known, would begin. Casey had every reason to believe that his performance over the next two hours would determine the fate of his career, his financial future, and the company he had built from scratch. “How could my life have unraveled so quickly?” he wondered. In his latest page-turning work of business fiction, best-selling author Patrick Lencioni provides readers with another powerful and thought-provoking book, this one centered around a cure for the most painful yet underestimated problem of modern business: bad meetings. And what he suggests is both simple and revolutionary. Casey McDaniel, the founder and CEO of Yip Software, is in the midst of a problem he created, but one he doesn’t know how to solve. And he doesn’t know where or who to turn to for advice. His staff can’t help him; they’re as dumbfounded as he is by their tortuous meetings. Then an unlikely advisor, Will Peterson, enters Casey’s world. When he proposes an unconventional, even radical, approach to solving the meeting problem, Casey is just desperate enough to listen. As in his other books, Lencioni provides a framework for his groundbreaking model, and makes it applicable to the real world. Death by Meeting is nothing short of a blueprint for leaders who want to eliminate waste and frustration among their teams and create environments of engagement and passion.

Book Synopsis Dying to Work by : Jonathan D. Karmel
Download or read book Dying to Work written by Jonathan D. Karmel and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Dying to Work, Jonathan Karmel raises our awareness of unsafe working conditions with accounts of workers who were needlessly injured or killed on the job. Based on heart-wrenching interviews Karmel conducted with injured workers and surviving family members across the country, the stories in this book are introduced in a way that helps place them in a historical and political context and represent a wide survey of the American workplace, including, among others, warehouse workers, grocery store clerks, hotel housekeepers, and river dredgers. Karmel’s examples are portraits of the lives and dreams cut short and reports of the workplace incidents that tragically changed the lives of everyone around them. Dying to Work includes incidents from industries and jobs that we do not commonly associate with injuries and fatalities and highlights the risks faced by workers who are hidden in plain view all around us. While exposing the failure of safety laws that leave millions of workers without compensation and employers without any meaningful incentive to protect their workers, Karmel offers the reader some hope in the form of policy suggestions that may make American workers safer and employers more accountable. This is a book for anyone interested in issues of worker health and safety, and it will also serve as the cornerstone for courses in public policy, community health, labor studies, business ethics, regulation and safety, and occupational and environmental health policy.

Book Synopsis Dying for a Paycheck by : Jeffrey Pfeffer
Download or read book Dying for a Paycheck written by Jeffrey Pfeffer and published by HarperBusiness. This book was released on 2018 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this timely, provocative book, Jeffrey Pfeffer contends that many modern management commonalities such as long hours, work-family conflict, and economic insecurity are toxic to employees--hurting engagement, increasing turnover, and destroying people's physical and emotional health--while also being inimical to company performance. He argues that human sustainability should be as important as environmental stewardship. You don't have to do a physically dangerous job to confront a health-destroying, possibly life-threatening workplace....In "Dying for a Paycheck", Jeffrey Pfeffer marshals a vast trove of evidence and numerous examples from all over the world to expose the infuriating truth about modern work life: even as organizations allow management practices that actually sicken and kill their employees, those policies do not enhance productivity or the bottom line, thereby creating a lose-lose situation. Exploring a range of important topics, including layoffs, health insurance, work-family conflict, work hours, job autonomy, and why people remain in toxic environments, Pfeffer offers guidance and practical solutions that all of us--employees, employers, and the government--can use to enhance workplace well-being. We must wake up to the dangers and enormous costs to today's workplace, Pfeffer argues. "Dying for a Paycheck" is a clarion call for a social movement focused on human sustainability. Pfeffer makes clear that the environment we work in is just as important as the one we live in, and with this urgent book he opens our eyes and shows how we can make our workplaces healthier and better."--jacket flaps

Book Synopsis "Surviving The Business of Dying" THE COMPANION WORKBOOK by : Mj Charles
Download or read book "Surviving The Business of Dying" THE COMPANION WORKBOOK written by Mj Charles and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Surviving the Business of Dying" Companion Workbook MJ Charles has received numerous comments and questions as to how to begin the process of gathering one's important papers, since her award-winning book "Surviving the Business of Dying, a Guide to Why Final Papers Matter"was published three years ago. The original book speaks to her own experience, dealing with her late spouse's estate matters without any formal documents. She reminds us of the details and priorities that each one of us needs to understand and complete prior to our leaving this earth. Questions centered around not only organizing one's own final thoughts in order to write a will, but also how to compile lists in a concise manner, so that others will know what to do. In other words, how do we leave directions! With this background in mind, MJ Charles created the "Surviving the Business of Dying" Companion Workbook! The Companion Workbook is intended for use, both by single people as well as those with spouses or partners. This user-friendly format is a platform upon which thoughts can be assembled, while providing a forum for spouses and partners to share ideas. Wills and directives are covered, but there are also in-depth questions that perhaps neither party has yet to think of! The author knows well what kinds of problems develop, when key information is missing or decisions are left hanging. The Companion Workbook presents the opportunity to "plug those holes". Practically speaking, this workbook is a "safe place" for all of the back-up details that do not make it into a will. It is not only useful during the will-writing process, but a completed workbook then becomes a valuable reference for family and the executor later on. Handwritten notes allow perspective and meaning. One's personal initials and dates on any changes provide insight and credibility. While the user does not need to read the original book, it is well served to note that the author's story is the basis for the workbook's creation. This letter-sized (8 1/2 x 11") layout allows space for answers to be written underneath each question. It is easy to store and includes a checklist with page numbers for reference. The Companion Workbook combines a simple presentation with a comprehensive overview. Start "the conversation" with yourself, a spouse or partner today. The effort to "get it right" becomes a gift to all concerned, eliminating stress and removing all doubt as to how a will will be executed and wishes fulfilled.

Book Synopsis Death and Dying in America by : Andrea Fontana
Download or read book Death and Dying in America written by Andrea Fontana and published by Polity. This book was released on 2009-07-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engaging new book takes a fresh approach to the major topics surrounding the processes and rituals of death and dying in the United States. It emphasizes individual experiences and personal reactions to death as well as placing mortality within a wider social context, drawing on theoretical frameworks, empirical research and popular culture. Throughout the text the authors highlight the importance of two key factors in American society which determine who dies and under what circumstances: persistent social inequality and the American consumerist ethic. These features are explored through a discussion of topics ranging from debates about euthanasia to deaths resulting from war and terrorism; from the death of a child to children’s experience of grieving and bereavement; and from beliefs about life after death to more practical issues such as the disposal of the dead body. Drawing on sociological, anthropological, philosophical, and historical research the authors present the salient features of death and dying for upper-level students across the social sciences. For anyone interested in learning more about the end of life, this book will provide a useful and accessible perspective on the uniquely American understanding of death and dying.
