Every person is unique! That is unquestionable. Nevertheless, you will find recurring character traits in your colleagues or neighbours that you have to deal with in your job and in everyday life. Just think of the tough dog from the executive floor, the clever fox from the controlling department or the grumpy hedgehog from the facility management. In this second, expanded edition, communications and negotiation expert Nello Gaspardo sketches nine different types by using animal metaphors. He points out their strengths and weaknesses and tells you exactly what you need to know when dealing with these people and how to interact with them correctly. The book is an indispensable guide for all those who want to achieve their goals quickly, both at work and in everyday life, by effectively working with other people.
Successful strategic management of small business isn't always as easy as it looks, given the dynamic changes, turbulent business environments, and in many cases severely restricted room for maneuver that prevail nowadays in Western economies. Which is why strategic and sustainable business governance and operational management are taking on growing importance, especially in sectors consisting mainly of small businesses. Although much has been written on these subjects, a book that resolutely focuses on the nuts and bolts of strategically focused sustainability management is needed, especially for smaller entities. More than 200 illustrative examples of best practice and other scenarios drawn from actual practice in the wine industry and elsewhere; plus more than 160 graphics, and a wealth of empirical data serve to answer the "why and how" of strategy and sustainability in the small business sector.
The textbook clearly presents the basics of German profit taxes and introduces even the previously inexperienced reader to the world of income tax, corporate income tax and trade tax. As in the previous German editions, the focus is not on individual tax-related recommendations for action or detailed regulations, but on the fundamental systematics of the subject matter. The book is therefore the ideal companion for targeted preparation for examinations in the Bachelor's and Master's programmes at universities that are oriented towards business taxation or tax law. It is also ideally suited for self-study. Target groups are therefore students, lecturers in the field of business taxation and tax law. The book is also suitable for English-speaking practitioners (including those from abroad) who wish to develop basic knowledge of German profit taxes useful for everyday professional life. Assistants in tax consulting, tax clerks as well as landlords specialising in tax and not least also tax advisers are addressed here.

Not Ready for Love is a collection of short stories which tries to tell what it can be like to be a child, a young person or a parent in Britain today. Some of the stories seek to expose the system that lets children down. Others touch on the remarkable resilience and compassion of children. Some look at the funny side of family life. Children who have experienced adversity can suffer the impact throughout their lives. But vulnerable children can triumph when given the care and support they need. Adopted and Looked After children have achieved high office in government, have become national poets and sporting heroes. And there are countless numbers who have become unsung heroes; turning out to be great parents themselves, or just being good people, getting on with their lives and making the world a better place. Extract from More Storage Space: 'It's your generation, actually; burning down the rainforests, global warming, extinction of the rhinos. Trump! Bolsanaro!' He looks up at them, the last two words summarising everything, he thinks. He hopes they'll see how obvious it is, though he's frustrated that he can't express himself more clearly. 'Bolsanaro? Which team does he play for?' asks Mike. Logan looks at the ceiling. From learning the moves: She looks at Spencer's dyed hair: bright red. 'Are you one of the entertainers?' she asks. 'Me? No, I'm hoping to be a dad one day,' says Spencer. 'Where's your wife?' 'No wife. Just me.' 'Just you?' Taylor looks puzzled. This isn't her idea of a family. From Gold: We advertised in the Big Issue. Not a sign. We got angry. How could she leave us worrying like this? We got frantic. Someone's taken her. She must be dead. It was a living nightmare. And friends and family had to know. How do you explain it? Their look seemed to say it was our fault; we must have done something. Our little Olivia who used to play her violin for them all as a party piece. Who'd won the school poetry prize. Weeks, months, a year... Ali Smith has written of one of the stories, The Gift, "I guarantee you will never forget... The Gift."
New York Times Bestseller “An exquisite, hilarious and devastating dissection.” —Malcolm Gladwell Why do the English keep apologizing? Why are they so unenthusiastic about enthusiasm? Why does rain surprise them? When are they being ironic, and how can you tell? Even after eighteen years in London, New York Times reporter Sarah Lyall remained perplexed and intrigued by its curious inhabitants and their curious customs. She’s since returned to the United States, but this distillation of incisive—and irreverent—insights, now updated with a new preface, is just as illuminating today. And perhaps even more so, in the wake of Brexit and the attendant national identity crisis. While there may be no easy answer to the question of how, exactly, to understand the English, The Anglo Files—part anthropological field study, part memoir—helps point the way.

Grumpy Pets shows that there’s a perfect match for everyone, if you stay true to yourself.
