Talent: Making People Your Competitive Advantage (English Edition)
The source of competitive advantage has shifted in many organizations from reliability to innovation and flexibility. But what does it take for an organization that innovates to then manage effectively? In this follow-up to Built to Change, Ed Lawler argues that it is a combination of the right structure and the right people. First, organizations must decide what structure they are: are you a high-involvement organization that has products and services that require a high level of coordination and cooperation among employees? Or do you have a more global competitor structure in which you are constantly bringing in new talent and technological expertise? Are you a mixture of both? Lawler outlines the unique human capital strategy for each approach, shows what it looks like in action, and provides the foundation and tools for creating competitive and innovative organizations.

What if you could never diet again? Your body knows exactly what to eat for optimal health and wellness. If you are tired of yo-yo dieting, chasing the latest eating craze, but still continuing to struggle with your weight, The Food Codes is your answer! In this book, you'll learn simple muscle testing techniques that can tell you exactly what nutrition your body needs in any moment, whether you are at home, in a restaurant, or at the grocery store. Once you master this easy testing method, you'll no longer struggle to decide what to eat, but get trusted information from your own body. The book includes a wealth of food lists, easy-to-customize recipes, and information that will help you on your journey to on-going health and wellness. "With her groundbreaking new book, The Food Codes, Lana Nelson gives us a way of living and relating to food that has been desperately needed for as long as people have been around. You don't have to wonder anymore about what to eat. You don't have to be pulled this way and that way by the constantly changing ideas of science (and your friends' opinions) about what foods are good for you and what foods are not. You can simply ask. The Food Codes makes the abstract idea of communicating with your own subconscious mind simple and concrete. Imagine. Your food needs, what's good for you and what's bad for you, are different from my food needs. Everyone is different, and that's what makes The Food Codes so eminently useful. So, you can stop listening to everyone else, change your relationship with food entirely, and start eating what your body really wants and needs. What a concept!" ~Dr. Bradley Nelson, Author of The Emotion Code
