Leading with Vision: The Leader's Blueprint for Creating a Compelling Vision and Engaging the Workforce , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 433min

A practical road map for leaders to connect with employees on an emotional level and captivate today's workforce by inspiring them with a shared vision. What does it mean to lead with vision? In the first book devoted entirely to vision as a key leadership principle, the authors delve deeply into the notion that a compelling vision that motivates and inspires is a true differentiator for organizations that want to hire and retain talent, be more competitive, and thrive in uncertain times. But a compelling vision on its own is not enough, which is why the authors, sought-after leadership development experts globally, provide listeners with detailed analyses of the essential things leaders must do to effectively engage the workforce around that vision: embody courage, forge clarity, build connectedness and shape culture. Leading with Vision draws on quantitative data from the authors' research of over 400 companies supplemented with real-world examples from thoughtful leaders who exemplify the core principles of leading with vision in established companies, including: Olukai, Bumble Bee, Coresystems, Jimbo's, Bunge and more. The audiobook also includes an actionable blueprint developed by the authors that leaders and their organizations can implement on day one of their journey. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Punpkins for Cheap: A Grotesque Horror, Novelette , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 88min

Just in time for Halloween! Trick or treat?The first story is the trick. The second story is the treat. Punpkins for CheapThis book should never be listened to by anyone. It's gross and immature. It's almost as if a small child wrote it. If you enjoy poorly written dark humor, you might like this book. I mean, there's a chapter titled "Tampons Are Not Yummy". So use your imagination as to what kind of story this is. This book will get bad reviews (if anyone ever listens to it). I expect that. If I had to review it, I would say it was the dumbest book I have ever heard/wrote. However, it does make me laugh. (Oh yeah, it's kinda gross too.) At least it's short. Plus, it could be scary. What if maggots evolved and wanted to take over the world? A maggot has invaded Jimbo's brain. The maggot has plans to make baby maggots and sell them inside jack-o-lanterns.Plus a bonus story titled "Them Bones". "Them Bones" is the most disturbing story I have ever written. It is true body horror! Probably one of the most twisted and bloodiest stories I have ever written. No spoilers, but it's about a man who falls in love with a skeleton. The skeleton asks him to make her pretty. Proceed with caution. Mature audiences only two extreme short stories. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ronald Young.

Ragtime Lullabies: Gershwin Joplin Debussy Billy J

With 'The Real American Folk Song is a Rag' the Gershwin brothers began their history making song writing collaboration. How appropriate that their very first song together not only makes the case for ragtime, but the piano accompaniment is filled with self-propelling rhythms, unique syncopations and Gershwin's trademark harmonic surprises. Although not written for solo piano, Gershwin's original solo piano accompaniment to this song is quite suitable as a solo piano piece. Ragtime is perhaps the first uniquely American contribution to world music. In 1994 I was the first person to record a CD containing all Gershwin's solo piano music. ('Rhapsody in Blue, Gershwin's Complete Solo Piano Music') In 1995 Warner Brothers published a new volume of sheet music containing previously unavailable 'new' Preludes by Gershwin, which made me want to go back to the recording studio immediately. It just so happened that these Preludes all seemed to fit into the category of ragtime and lullabies. At the same time, the solo piano version of Gershwin's 'Lullaby' finally appeared in print and I felt that the combination of rags and lullabies would compliment each other nicely. Hence this new CD which is both an addendum to my first Gershwin CD and a rather subjective and personal investigation of ragtime and lullabies from the end of the nineteenth century to the present. 'Rialto Ripples Rag' was published in 1917 and written the previous year. It is George Gershwin's first published instrumental. It has all the hallmarks of Gershwin's tricky piano style merging ragtime with the piano novelty number. Gershwin was hoping for a hit with the publication of this piece. It didn't happen. Ragtime's heyday was really at the turn of the century, and by 1917 the ragtime era had ended with the death that year of Scott Joplin. Gershwin's 'Lullaby' is a true ragtime lullaby, sweet, full now of faded memories, and filled with slow motion ragtime syncopations, comparable in many ways to Scott Joplin's 'Solace'. It seems to have been written first as a piano piece around 1919, then transcribed by Gershwin for a string quartet. A portion of the original piano version still survives. Using that and the string quartet version, Alicia Zizzo reconstructed the original solo piano version. Gershwin had the idea of writing 24 Preludes - not unlike Chopin - and calling his series 'The Melting Pot'. He never completed the series, but several charming Preludes from the series still exist. The original 3 Preludes which I have recorded on my previous Gershwin CD are well known, loved by all pianists, and certainly have been a staple of the piano repertoire for decades. The 'new' preludes recorded here, were performed by Gershwin himself in a concert on December 4, 1926. Richard Stokes reviewing Gershwin's performance in the Evening World, called them 'brief and glowing little vignettes of New York life.' The 'Prelude January 1925' was clearly used as the basis for the finale of his piano concerto. 'Rubato' and 'Sleepless Night' are both wistful jazz studies and the 'Novelette in Fourths' is a charming raggy period piece. This Gershwin set ends with 'Summertime' from 'Porgy and Bess' - surely Gershwin's most well know Lullaby. Scott Joplin was the central and prime creative spirit of ragtime. A large segment of twentieth century American music including jazz, bebop, and the American popular song received it's shape and spirit from him. 'Maple Leaf Rag' (1899) is Joplin's keystone work. To play it gives a feeling of irresistible exhilaration and joy. It contrasts wonderfully with 'Solace,' a slow sweet ragtime lullaby. I mentioned earlier the comparison to Gershwin's 'Lullaby.' It is important to be aware of tempo in Joplin's music. In many of his scores he wrote that ragtime is never to be played fast. He wrote this as a horrified reaction to many musicians who would mindlessly bang this music out as fast as they could. Joplin's admonition however, resulted in much confusion since the music actually needs to find it's own tempo. The ragtime in this album has a variety of tempi and texture. Accorsing to Robert Haven Schauffler in 'The Unknown Brahms,' just before his death Brahms invisioned a ragtime project. Sadly we don't have that music, but we do have from Brahm what is probably the best know lullaby in the world - a tune that has been used for everything from quaint music boxes to Bugs Bunny cartoons. At the turn of the century American's cakewalked to ragtime. So did the French, thought they called it 'le temp du chiffon.' Every concert pianist knows 'Golliwog's Cakewalk' from Debussy's 'Children's Corner.' Gershwin certainly knew this music too, since he made a point of obtaining all the music of Debussy while visiting Paris. But even more striking is the similarity that 'Golliwog' has to Gershwin's third Prelude including the same chords in the opening bars. It's a wonderful example of the cross pollination of ragtime from America to Europe and back again via Gershwin to America. Debussy's Jimbo's Lullaby also from 'Children's Corner' is actually a reflection of his own rather individual brand of English. He insisted thst his daughter Chouchou's toy elephant was Jimbo - not Jumbo. The elephant is being told a bedtime story, and surely this is the most gravity defying of all elephantine music. 'Spaghetti Rag' is a favorite of mine. Written in 1910, I can't help but think of Charlie Chaplin twirling his cane to the circular tune of this music. From there we move to the other end of the twentieth century and what may strike some as a surprising choice of music to be recorded by a concert pianist. 'Root Beer Rag' was written at the beginning of Billy Joel's career and I can only guess was used by him as his own virtuoso showpiece which allowed him to stand out from the crowd. 'Good Night My Angel' written in 1993, is a touching gift by Joel (as is Debussy's Lullaby) to his daughter. I decided to end this album with a piece I occassionally use as an encore at my own concerts - 'Send in the Clowns' by Stephen Sondheim. It's a wonderful way to end a concert and say goodnight and pleasant dreams!
