Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Filled with hundreds of specific examples and organized into a coherent framework of practical concepts that can be applied by managers and entrepreneurs at all levels, Built to Last provides a master blueprint for building organizations that will prosper in the 21st century and beyond. In Good to Great, the most widely anticipated management book of the year, Jim Collins presents nothing less than a recipe book on how to make a good company great. Following the success of his international blockbuster Built to Last, where he and co-author Jerry Porras discovered the secrets of companies that were outstanding at their founding and then sustained greatness, Collins wondered what could be done for the company that is good or mediocre at best? He questioned whether there have been companies that started weak and finished strong, and if so, what can be said about these companies that might help managers turn a mediocre organization into a great one? So Collins and his research team undertook a massive five year study of every company that has made the Fortune 500 since the advent of that listing in 1965, and has crafted a book as practical and insightful as BUILT TO LAST. This exclusive deluxe box set brings together the two most important business books of the last decade from Jim Collins, the leader in modern business theory. Synopsis:Nouwen insightfully considers the many faces of intimacy: in interpersonal relationships, in the life of a celibate priest or in the community of religious, with God during moments of celebration and silent prayer. The discussion in Intimacy is concise and open; the directions proposed by Henri J. M. Nouwen have profound implications for understanding this most basic of human needs.
Synopsis:Writing from his vast experience as a pastoral counselor, beloved writer Henri Nouwen addresses the basic question, "How can I find a creative and fulfilling intimacy in my relationship with God and my fellow human beings?" He offers a thoughtful exploration of the balance between intimacy and distance; the problems in developing lasting and productive relationships; and the connections between intimacy and sexuality, prayer, faith, and the mental well-being of the minister.
Synopsis:
"We probably have wondered in our many lonesome moments if there is one corner in this competitive, demanding world where it is safe to be relaxed, to expose ourselves to someone else, and to give unconditionally. It might be very small and hidden. But if this corner exists, it calls for a search through the complexities of our human relationships in order to find it." About the AuthorHenri J. M. Nouwen (1932–1996) is the author of With Open Hands, Reaching Out, The Wounded Healer, Making All Things New and many other bestsellers. He was the senior pastor of L'Arche Daybreak in Toronto, Canada, a community where mentally disabled men and women and their assistants create a home together.
