Die 10 größten Fehler neuer Führungskräfte, Vol. 1 (ungekürzt)

Als ich das Buch «Die 10 größten Fehler neuer Führungskräfte» geschrieben und veröffentlicht habe, bin ich nicht davon ausgegangen, dass es zum Verkaufsschlager wird. Meine Intention war, in erster Linie für mich festzuhalten, welche Fehler ich in der Vergangenheit gemacht habe und was es zu beachten gilt, wenn man einen neuen Führungsjob antritt. Unabhängig von theoretischem Geschwafel über Führungsstile und anderem Zeug, von dem man oft liest, das man aber in den meisten Fällen ohnehin nicht...

Invisible Wealth

Invisible Wealth

The discipline of economics is not what it used to be. Over the last few decades, economists have begun a revolutionary reorientation in how we look at the world, and this has major implications for politics, policy, and our everyday lives. For years, conventional economists told us an incomplete story that leaned on the comfortable precision of mathematical abstraction and ignored the complexity of the real world with all of its uncertainties, unknowns, and ongoing evolution.What economists...

Economics Does Not Lie

Guy Sorman

Economics Does Not Lie

In the 20th century, privatization and market capitalism have reconstructed Eastern Europe and lifted 800 million people – in China, Brazil, and India – out of poverty. In Economics Does Not Lie, noted French journalist Guy Sorman reveals that behind this unprecedented growth is not only the collapse of state socialism but also a scientific revolution in economics – one that is as of yet dimly understood by the public but increasingly embraced by policymakers around the globe.

Money in a Free Society

Money in a Free Society

In the 15 years to mid-2007 the world economy enjoyed unparalleled stability (the so-called Great Moderation”), with steady growth and low inflation. But the period since mid-2007 (the Great Recession”) has seen the worst macroeconomic turmoil since the 1930s. A dramatic plunge in trade, output and employment in late 2008 and 2009 has been followed by an unconvincing recovery. How is the lurch from stability to instability to be explained? What are the...

Radical Seattle

On a grey winter morning in Seattle, in February 1919, 110 local unions shut down the entire city. Shut it down and took it over, rendering the authorities helpless. For five days, workers from all trades and sectors – streetcar drivers, telephone operators, musicians, miners, loggers, shipyard workers – fed the people, ensured that babies had milk, that the sick were cared for. They did this with without police – and they kept the peace themselves. This had never happened before in the United...

Wall Street's Think Tank

The Council on Foreign Relations is the most influential foreign-policy think tank in the United States, claiming among its members a high percentage of government officials, media figures, and establishment elite. For decades it kept a low profile even while it shaped policy, advised presidents, and helped shore up U.S. hegemony following the Second World War. In 1977, Laurence H. Shoup and William Minter published the first in-depth study of the CFR, Imperial Brain Trust, an explosive work...

He graphically...

California Fights Back

California Fights Back

Veteran journalist Peter Schrag argues that California's role in the era of Donald Trump is twofold: to act as a leader in the resistance to the current administration, and to be held up as an alternative to the course being pursued in Washington. Given the Democratic Party's stronghold on all statewide elected offices and legislature, it isn't surprising that California has become a beacon of progressivism. But this is hardly an inevitability. California was almost where much of...

Part of the Family?

Love and compassion are at the heart of domestic labor, yet historically, domestic workers have been rendered invisible—by society and in the eyes of the law. Mostly foreign-born women, these workers have been excluded from labor protections that workers in the rest of the economy take for granted. However, in the past decade, a growing movement has emerged calling for domestic workers to share in the same rights guaranteed other workers, which is likely to lead to one of the most...
