  One Fifth Avenue , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 989min

  In her wonderfully witty fifth novel, best-selling author Candace Bushnell tells the stories of five women living in Manhattan's swankiest apartment building. One Fifth Avenue is THE building - the chicest, the hottest, with all the best people. Within its luxuriously thick walls the lives of New York City's elite play out. There is Schiffer Diamond, an over-40 actress who had given up making movies and moved to Europe, until the call to come home gave her the chance to prove that women of style are truly ageless. There is spoiled, self-assured Lola, whose mother is determined to launch her darling daughter into society and the arms of the right man by clawing her way into the building. There is Annalisa, a reluctant socialite who has renounced her law career to be the perfect wife to her workaholic husband, and Winnie, who is married to an underpublished writer and has been the family breadwinner too long for her own - and her marriage's - good. And there is Nini, a glamorous grande dame who has lived at One Fifth Avenue for decades and seen everything from her penthouse view. No one else can capture New York with the brilliant wit and flair of Candace Bushnell. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Carrington MacDuffie.

  The Power of Perception: Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, and the Gender Divide , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 584min

  The Power of Perception: Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, and the Gender Divide serves as a practical guide to educate women, men, and organizations on the barriers that keep women from fully contributing in the workplace. These include differences in leadership style and emotional intelligence, gender bias and stereotypes, breadwinner and caregiver responsibilities, and differences in gender culture that show up every day at work and home.The Power of Perception also explores significant changes in global demographic trends and how our youngest generations are impacting the workplace. The Power of Perception clearly illustrates the reasons that we don’t see more women leading our global businesses. It has nothing to do with women’s skills and competencies and everything to do with perceptions of women as leaders, as workers, as mothers, and as wives.These perceptions have a significant impact on promotion for many women. Perception is reality - and it’s powerful. The Power of Perception provides personal stories of women’s journeys and real-world examples and is based on the author’s own research as well as that of many others. Every chapter includes practical, easy-to-apply strategies, summary points, and reflection questions to empower women, men, and organizations to fully leverage talent and diversity. ungekürzt.
