When General Stanley McChrystal took command of the Joint Special Operations Task Force in Iraq in 2003, he quickly realized that conventional military tactics were failing. The allied forces had a huge advantage in numbers, equipment and training - but none of the enemy's speed and flexibility. McChrystal and his colleagues discarded a century of conventional wisdom to create a 'team of teams' that combined extremely transparent communication with decentralised decision-making authority.

The retired four-star general and and best-selling author of My Share of the Task shares a powerful new leadership model. Former General Stanley McChrystal held a key position for much of the War on Terror, as head of the Joint Special Operations Command. In Iraq, he found that despite the vastly superior resources, manpower, and training of the US Military, Al Qaeda had an advantage because of its structure as a loose network of small, independent cells. To defeat such an agile enemy, JSOC had to change its focus from efficiency to adaptability.

Unsere Welt dreht sich immer schneller. Ständig werden wir abgelenkt, von dem was wirklich wichtig ist. Wir handeln häufig einfach nur fremdgesteuert und vergessen dabei unsere eigenen Bedürfnisse. Wir reagieren nur noch auf die Umwelt und fühlen uns regelmäßig völlig überfordert und orientierungslos. Wissen Sie, wo Sie in den nächsten Jahren sein wollen? In 1 Jahr? In 5 Jahren? Nur die wenigsten Menschen nehmen sich wirklich etwas ganz bestimmtes vor, das sie erreichen wollen.

Motivation hat einen großen Einfluss auf unser Leben. Ohne die nötige Motivation sitzen wir nur antriebslos herum, wissen nicht, was wir mit unserer Zeit anfangen sollen und haben keine Grundsätze oder Ziele. Wir verfallen in eine negative Denkweise und üben auch auf andere einen destruktiven Einfluss aus. Dass fehlende Motivation Menschen negativ beeinflusst, ist nachvollziehbar, doch Studien zufolge führt Demotivation im Durchschnitt sogar zu rund 23% Leistungs- und Produktivitätsverlust!

In the 1800s, the moist soil of the Midwest would stick to plow blades, stopping the farmers as they plowed. Young blacksmith John Deere knew about the problem, so he designed and built a self-scouring plow. With this small start, he founded the famous farm implement company Deere & Company and started down the road to success.

In einer Welt, in der schon lange nicht mehr nur die eigene Leistung zählt, ist man gezwungen, auch andere Qualitäten zu adoptieren und zu perfektionieren. Natürlich darf man dabei die eigentlichen Fähigkeiten nicht vernachlässigen, aber Dinge wie Smalltalk, Körpersprache oder rudimentäre Organisationsfertigkeiten sind in der Berufswelt mittlerweile unabdingbar. Aber auch im Privatleben ist es von hoher Relevanz zu wissen, wann ich mit wem wie reden kann oder wann ich was besser selbst in die Hand nehme.

Throughout history and infinite dimensions, there exists a secret group of supernatural investigators operating on the fringes of society, lurking in the shadows, working strange cases with little reward. They are hardboiled zombies and ghosts, mythological creatures, ass-kicking vampires, tortured humans, and uncanny sleuths whose normal is the bizarre and weird.

In early 2013 same-sex marriage was legal in only 10 states and the District of Columbia. That year the Supreme Court's decision in United States v. Windsor appeared to open the door to marriage equality. In Texas, Mark Phariss and Vic Holmes, together for 16 years and deeply in love, wondered why no one had stepped across the threshold to challenge their state's 2005 constitutional amendment prohibiting same-sex marriage. They agreed to join a lawsuit being put together by Akin Gump Strauss Hauer and Feld LLD.

As a small boy, Charles Dickens worked in a dark, musty London warehouse, pasting labels onto pots of boot polish. He tried not to listen to his grumbling stomach or the rats squeaking on the stairs. His dream was to escape that misery one day and become a fine, educated gentleman. Through his gift for writing, that day did come for Dickens. But he never forgot what it was like to be poor. He wrote stories about London's lower classes—tales that made people laugh, cry, and work to improve their social conditions.

Tea with a hedgehog and supper with a rabbit? Beatrix Potter entertained guests that most people—certainly Beatrix Potter's proper Victorian parents—would have thought belonged in a meadow, not in a London nursery. Such unlikely companions were company for lonely Beatrix, and she spent much of her time sketching and making up stories about these small creatures. Beatrix was so well acquainted with the characters of her various animal friends that when she was older it seemed natural to write and illustrate small books about their delightful adventures.

On 22 May 2017, a bomb exploded in the middle of a crowd of young fans leaving an Ariana Grande concert at the Manchester Arena. Twenty-two people were killed and hundreds more were injured.

My name is David Collins. I am a Radio DJ and Broadcaster from Manhattan, Kansas. I've been doing Radio since I was 18. First starting in college (shout out KSDB), I quickly realized this was something I was pretty good at. Since then, I've worked with a variety of radio stations, finally landing at K-Rock 101.5. There, I was able to meet and speak with many famous and/or interesting people. Although it was a great opportunity, at the time, fortunately for me, times change. I've been cut loose from the chains of day-time Radio, and have a new show. David Collins 30 Minute Half Hour Show is a ...

One American seldom receives the attention he rightly deserves. Noah Webster, Jr., does not often come immediately to mind when one considers those who helped the United States during its infancy. He should. His services were many and unique in the earliest stages of America. Even as a boy, Noah was fascinated with language and education. He was troubled by the lack of interest shown by others in formal schooling, and the lack of books and proper facilities bothered him even more. When the fires of the Revolution broke out in the early 1770s, Noah was a student at Yale.
