Dumaete, vse deti v sirotskikh prijutakh mechtajut o tom, chtoby ikh poskoree zabrali? Aja po prozvischu Ukhovjortka tochno ne iz takikh. V prijute Svjatogo Morvalda ej ochen dazhe nravilos: esli Ae khotelos zapekanku, povar gotovil zapekanku, a esli khotelos novyj sviter, zavedujuschaja missis Briggs tut zhe mchalas v magazin! Tak chto kazhdyj raz, kogda na poroge pojavljalis potentsialnye roditeli, Aja staralas vygljadet kak mozhno protivnee, chtoby nikto dazhe ne podumal ejo udocherit. Eto vsegda srabatyvalo, poka v prijut ne prishla Bella Jaga, samaja nastojaschaja i sovsem ne dobraja vedma... Khudozhnik: Satake M. Perevodchik: Brodotskaja A.

Velikolepnyj podarok dlja sebja i svoikh blizkikh!

Kakuju by fantasticheskuju istoriju ni rasskazala chitatelju Diana Uinn Dzhons, avtor proslavlennoj serii "Miry Krestomansi", skuchat tochno ne pridetsja. Na etot raz ej mozhet pozavidovat sama Shakherezada. Chitatelja zhdut magicheskij detektiv i volshebnaja skazka, kovarstvo i ljubov, pokhischenie printsessy (i ne odnoj), zaoblachnye kraja i vozdushnyj zamok, znojnye pustyni i lesnye chaschi, razbojniki i volshebniki, a takzhe uzhe znakomye geroi "Khodjachego zamka". Zhil da byl v dalekoj juzhnoj strane junosha po imeni Abdulla. On torgoval na bazare kovrami, no bolshe vsego na svete ljubil stroit vozdushnye zamki, grezit o chudesakh i mechtat o zhenitbe na prekrasnoj printsesse. No ne uspel Abdulla i vprjam obzavestis volshebnym kovrom-samoletom i poznakomitsja s samoj chto ni na est nastojaschej printsessoj, kak spokojnaja zhizn konchilas: prelestnuju Tsvetok-v-Nochi tut zhe pokhitil uzhasnyj ifrit. I nachalis zakhvatyvajuschie prikljuchenija... Vskore Abdulla volej-nevolej vyjasnil, chto vozdushnye zamki byvajut bolee chem realny, a ljudi (i ne tolko ljudi), kotorye vstrechajutsja tebe v stranstvijakh, - vovse i ne te, kem kazhutsja na pervyj vzgljad!

Sofi zhivet v skazochnoj strane, gde vedmy i rusalki, semimilnye sapogi i govorjaschie sobaki - obychnoe delo. Poetomu, kogda na nee obrushivaetsja uzhasnoe prokljatie kovarnoj Bolotnoj Vedmy, Sofi nichego ne ostaetsja, kak obratitsja za pomoschju k tainstvennomu charodeju Khoulu, obitajuschemu v Khodjachem zamke. Odnako, chtoby osvoboditsja ot char, Sofi predstoit razgadat nemalo zagadok i prozhit v zamke u Khoula gorazdo dolshe, chem ona rasschityvala. A dlja etogo nuzhno podruzhitsja s ognennym demonom, pojmat padajuschuju zvezdu, podslushat penie rusalok, otyskat mandragoru i mnogoe, mnogoe drugoe. Dlja detej srednego shkolnogo vozrasta.

Posle smerti dedushki - moguchego volshebnika po imeni Dzhoslin Brendon - Endrju Khoup nasleduet pomeste Melton-Khauz. Teper-to mozhno brosit skuchnuju rabotu, zazhit v tishine i pokoe i napisat, nakonets, knigu... No vot nezadacha, zhiltsy pomestja nikak ne mogut smiritsja s pojavleniem novogo khozjaina. A ved u Endrju i bez etogo zabot khvataet: na poroge ego doma vnezapno objavljaetsja malchishka po imeni Ejdan, kotoryj prosit u Khoupa zaschity ot zloveschikh presledovatelej. Brosit neschastnogo v bede Endrju ne mozhet, odnako volshebnik iz nego sovsem nikudyshnyj - iz urokov deda on vynes lish odno: starinnyj vitrazh na dveri kukhni nado berech kak zenitsu oka. S nim svjazano chto-to ochen vazhnoe i ochen volshebnoe. Tolko vot chto?..

Polli zabyla, vse zabyla.... Pjat dolgikh i udivitelnykh let druzhby s Tomom, ikh perepisku, istorii, kotorye oni sochinjali vmeste i kotorye pochemu-to okazyvalis pravdoj, golovokruzhitelnye prikljuchenija, vstrechi i razluki, radosti i obidy, ugrozy ego rodnykh, zapreschavshikh im obschatsja... i to, kak ona sama soglasilas ego zabyt. No samoe strannoe - ob etom zabyli i vse okruzhajuschie. Budto kto-to ster vse, chto bylo v zhizni Polli, i podmenil vospominanija skuchnoj falshivkoj. Dazhe kniga, kotoruju Tom podaril ej, zagadochnym obrazom preobrazilas: odni rasskazy ischezli, drugie okazalis perepisany. I lish kartina s pylajuschimi tsvetami boligolova pomogla ej vspomnit proshloe i ponjat, kto i pochemu lishil ee pamjati. A nachalos vse s togo, chto odnazhdy v Khellouin Polli, narushiv strogij babushkin zapret, probralas v starinnyj osobnjak po sosedstvu...

There’s an epidemic of leadership failure—whether something as small as a meeting, or as large as implementing enterprise wide change. Leaders know that sinking feeling when a gap emerges between themselves and the groups they most need to engage with. Leaders and business schools are looking in the wrong places for the cause. What holds most leaders back, as if their foot is always on the brake, is their failure to engage, and gain alignment. This book shows the reasons why. Leaders rarely recognise that: Shaping group behavior is describable as a process, which they can learn. Instead, they unconsciously fall into relationship patterns influenced by early family experiences. Informal relationship patterns have a dramatic effect on results, which is why birds in flight manage to alter course without bumping into each other. Leadership and collaboration are primarily a matter of principles and process, and not personality and content alone. If leaders master the process, they achieve consistent results. This book reveals the leadership levers to release the power of relationships for exceptional participation, alignment and results in organizations. It enables leaders to mine the brilliance that often lies dormant and untapped within their organizations. Readers will have the principles and tools to go beyond the agenda, truly engage with those around them, and release untapped capacities within their organizations. These qualities and skills will inspire associates and employees.

Many leaders take great care to separate their personal qualities from their professional identity. Diana Jones, an executive coach for 30-years, argues that this is unwise. In fact, 'soft' skills - empathy, compassion, and authentic communication - are derived from personal experience, and are both powerful and essential to enhancing executive presence, influencing others and achieving results. Through compelling stories and examples taken directly from Jones's coaching sessions with experienced leaders, readers will learn how to make enduring behavioural changes that will produce better business results and create alignment among disparate groups using empathy and leadership language.

Viewing them as 'touchy feely', intangible and invisible, most leaders separate their personal lives from their professional lives. Diana Jones, an executive coach for 30-years, argues that this is unwise.
