6 Shortcuts to Employee Engagement (Business Edition) is a treasure trove of easy to implement, high-impact ideas for business leaders struggling to keep employees engaged. Most leaders really do want to improve employee engagement - they just don't have an effective method that works along with (rather than in addition to) all the other priorities in their day. This book provides that roadmap and all the accompanying tools."6 Shortcuts is not just a book, it's a multi-media tool to help managers improve their connection with their employees. The book presents, in a lively voice, six shortcuts with useful ideas to establish, implement and monitor employee engagement. Each shortcut includes an invite to a website tool box with videos and other tools designed to facilitate the shortcut. As an owner of a moderate sized engineering firm with over 35 years of experience, one of the biggest challenges we are faced with is managing our millennial employees, and 6 Shortcuts to Employee Engagement is a great resource to help baby boom managers meet these challenges."Stu Taub, Partner, Wallace Montgomery

International Agreements between Non-State Actors as a Source of International Law

International Agreements between Non-State Actors as a Source of International Law

Melissa Loja

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2022
sidottu
This book examines whether international agreements between non-state actors can be identified as a source of international law using objective criteria. It asks whether, beyond Article 38 of the Statute of the International Court of Justice, there is a system of rules, processes, beliefs or semantics by which these agreements can be objectively identified as a source of international law. Departing from the more usual state-centric analysis, it adopts postmodern legal positivism as its analytical tool. This allows for the reality that international law-making takes place in subjective social landscapes. To test the effectiveness of this approach, it is applied to agreements between petroleum agencies and corporations which allow two or more states to exploit disputed resources across boundaries looking in particular at arrangements involving China, Vietnam and the Philippines. By so doing it illustrates an alternative way that states can manage disputes, without having to resort to conflict. It will appeal to both scholars and practitioners of public international law, as well as civil servants.

The Dirt Still Looks the Same: A Poetry Collective

The Dirt Still Looks the Same: A Poetry Collective

Melissa Crockett Meske

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2016
nidottu
This poetry collective moves through the first half of a lifetime. Collectively, the author's verses move through everyday life with eyes wide open, but sometimes perhaps with a slight squinting rather than in full focus. The poems wrapped in this cover were selected by the author as her first 50, expanding the first half of her writing years. It is the hope that you will come away covered with layers of love, bitterness, hope, cynicism, cautiousness, lust, respect, positivity, doubt, loneliness, sadness, happiness, ecstasy, pride, resilience, tranquility and perhaps even utopia after traveling through its pages. "There is a Time" is from Meske's earliest years as an author, written in her late junior high years. Some of the Haiku and works such as "Travelling Words" and "In Absence of Love" are among her latest pennings, and prose commemorating momentous people and momentous times in life is waiting inside for your consideration as well. "A Most Special Day, But Without You" reflects upon a most memorable occasion where the author also shares the joy that comes when a one-time poet writes his first lines-something the 60-something farm-raised Army vet turned welder never thought he would do, for his stepdaughter or for anyone. Facing his last days, he still managed to take on the challenge.As we move from birth to death, we face the challenges brought on with each day we are given. We love. We play. We hurt. We make mistakes. We learn. We succeed. We fail. We pick ourselves up and try again. The dust and dirt that gathers on the soles of our shoes, in our eyes, on our skin, and hidden deep within our closets and our minds ends up looking the same when we view it from the mountaintop at the high points of life or with an upward gaze as it accumulates over us while we're laying six feet underground.
