Negotiating the Impossible: How to Break Deadlocks and Resolve Ugly Conflicts (Without Money or Muscle) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 419min
Some negotiations are easy. Others are more difficult. And then there are situations that seem hopeless. Conflict is escalating, people are getting aggressive, and no one is willing to back down. And to top it off, you have little power, money, or other resources to work with. Harvard professor (and negotiation advisor to organizations around the world) Deepak Malhotra shows how to defuse even the most potentially explosive situations and to find success when things seem impossible. Malhotra illustrates key lessons using behind-the-scenes stories of fascinating real-life negotiations, including drafting the US Constitution, resolving the Cuban Missile Crisis, ending bitter disputes in the NFL and NHL, and beating the odds in complex business situations. He also shows how these same principles and tactics can be applied in everyday life, whether you are making corporate deals, negotiating job offers, resolving business disputes, tackling obstacles in personal relationships, or even negotiating with children. ungekürzt.

Collaborative Innovation in the Public Sector: Public Management and Change , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 995min
Governments worldwide struggle to remove policy deadlocks and enact much-needed reforms in organizational structure and public services. In this book, Jacob Torfing explores collaborative innovation as a way for public and private stakeholders to break the impasse. These network-based collaborations promise to multiply the skills, ideas, energy, and resources between government and its partners across agency boundaries and in the nonprofit and private sectors. Torfing draws on his own pioneering work in Europe as well as examples from the United States and Australia to construct a cross-disciplinary framework for studying collaborative innovation. His analysis explores its complex and interactive processes as he looks at how drivers and barriers may enhance or impede the collaborative approach. He also reflects on the roles institutional design, public management, and governance reform play in spurring collaboration for public sector innovation. The result is a theoretically and empirically informed book that carefully demonstrates how multi-actor collaboration can enhance public innovation in the face of fiscal constraint, the proliferation of wicked problems, and the presence of unsatisfied social needs.The book is published by Georgetown University Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks."In this path-breaking book, Torfing shows how collaborative innovation is an important component of new public governance.. His work will be of abiding interest to both scholars and practitioners."

Do you break into a cold sweat every time you look at a menu?Ever been sure you were going to marry someone from high school, and one glance at their Facebook page after graduation showed you what a mistake that would have been?Are you struggling right now to decide if you should get this book?Every day, we make about 35,000 decisions. For most people, that’s 35,000 opportunities to have an aneurysm from agonizing over the “right” choice.Decision deadlocks in career, relationships, and life in general leave us not knowing which way to go and not trusting our own judgment. Everything feels like life or death, leaving us afraid to make a move and agonizing over our choice when we finally do.Making decisions that stick comes down to three things: Understanding how your brain works so you can make it work in your favorGetting over fear, a lack of confidence, and an inability to trust yourselfCommon senseThis book helps with all three.You’ll discover:The psychological phenomenon that causes you to misinterpret situationsThe “four pains” you suffer in analysis paralysisHow a jar of pureed fruit proves less really is moreThe three hacks from Fortune 500 companies to make your choices easierHow to reframe potential downsides and confidently pursue upsidesAnd more!At the end of the day, it’s decisions that stand between the life you have now and the life you want - decisions you’re likely petrified to make for fear they’ll turn out wrong.This is the book I wish I had when I was working myself into a tizzy over every metaphorical fork in the road. This is not your grandmother’s self-help.Even if you’ve always been indecisive, it’s time to make snap decisions in a snap and make big decisions better so you can make informed choices with better outcomes.If you want to see clearly, think clearl ungekürzt.

Negotiating the Impossible
Negotiating the Impossible guides readers through deadlock with practical advice, and shares stories of successful negotiation to make the hopeless feel hopeful! Some negotiations are easy. Others are more difficult. And then there are situations that seem completely hopeless. Conflict is escalating, people are getting aggressive, and no one is willing to back down. And to top it off, you have little power or other resources to work with. Harvard professor and negotiation adviser Deepak Malhotra shows how to defuse even the most potentially explosive situations and to find success when things seem impossible. Malhotra identifies three broad approaches for breaking deadlocks and resolving conflicts, and draws out scores of actionable lessons using behind-the-scenes stories of fascinating real-life negotiations, including drafting of the US Constitution, resolving the Cuban Missile Crisis, ending bitter disputes in the NFL and NHL, and beating the odds in complex business situations. But he also shows how these same principles and tactics can be applied in everyday life, whether you are making corporate deals, negotiating job offers, resolving business disputes, tackling obstacles in personal relationships, or even negotiating with children. As Malhotra reminds us, regardless of the context or which issues are on the table, negotiation is always, fundamentally, about human interaction. No matter how high the stakes or how protracted the dispute, the object of negotiation is to engage with other human beings in a way that leads to better understandings and agreements. The principles and strategies in this book will help you do this more effectively in every situation.

MySQL Concurrency (eBook, PDF)
Know how locks work in MySQL and how they relate to transactions. This book explains the major role that locks play in database systems, showing how locks are essential in allowing high-concurrency workloads. You will learn about lock access levels and lock granularities from the user level as well as table locks to record and gap locks. Most importantly, the book covers troubleshooting techniques when locking becomes a pain point. Several of the lock types in MySQL have a duration of a transaction. For this reason, it is important to understand how transactions work. This book covers the basics of transactions as well as transaction isolation levels and how they affect locking. The book is meant to be your go-to resource for solving locking contention and similar problems in high-performance MySQL database applications. Detecting locking issues when they occur is the first key to resolving such issues. MySQL Concurrency provides techniques for detecting locking issues such as contention. The book shows how to analyze locks that are causing contention to see why those locks are in place. A collection of six comprehensive case studies combine locking and transactional theory with realistic lock conflicts. The case studies walk you through the symptoms to look for in order to identify which issue you are facing, the cause of the conflict, its analysis, solution, and how to prevent the issue in the future. What You Will LearnUnderstand which lock types exist in MySQL and how they are usedChoose the best transaction isolation level for a given transactionDetect and analyze lock contention when it occursReduce locking issues in your applicationsResolve deadlocks between transactionsResolve InnoDB record-level locking issuesResolve issues from metadata and schema locks Who This Book Is For Database administrators and SQL developers who are familiar with MySQL and want to gain a better understanding of locking and transactions as well as how to work with them.
