Based on real-world evidence from senior executives and successful entrepreneurs, this book argues that an effective leader must act like an ambivert: an introvert at times and an extrovert at others.

Thanks to landmark books such as How to Win Friends and Influence People, many professionals think that only extroverts can be standout leaders, but Karl Moore’s interviews with over 750 CEOs from around the world prove that introverts make excellent leaders too. These insights make clear that the optimal leadership style is ambivert, with senior leaders combining introversion—being excellent listeners and thinking before they speak—and extroversion—inspiring and connecting with their teams. This book teaches how introverts and extroverts work, manage, and lead effectively and how readers can be better leaders regardless of their natural communication style. It empowers leaders to celebrate the strengths of their personality type while being flexible and to understand when to incorporate the strengths of other types into their leadership approach to be more effective. While showing how to identify and utilize the approach that is best for a given situation, it also highlights the potential weaknesses of the ambivert’s chameleon nature and emphasizes the importance of leaders staying true to themselves in any situation.

Current and aspiring leaders, as well as entrepreneurs and MBA and executive education students, will understand how to develop and maximize the perfect blend of introversion and extroversion as this book guides them through a range of potential situations encountered in the workplace.

Origins of Globalization draws widely on ancient sources and modern economic theory to detail the concept of “known world” globalization, arguing that a mixed economy--similar in many respects to our own--existed in a variety of forms throughout the ancient world. By analyzing the business practices of the ancient world--phenomena such as resource and market seeking behavior, international trade from China, India and Rome, to Africa and even northern and western parts of Europe, Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs) operating internationally and outsourcing production, multicultural workforces, tariff reduced zones, interregional tax issues, and the management of currency risks--the authors provide readers with a unique historical interpretation of the contemporary globalizing economy and a durable theoretical framework for future historical economic analyses.

Have you noticed that the majority of .NET books seem intent on hiding you from real-world code? You can buy a 1,500-page draft excluder, study it intensively for a month, and still be none the wiser as to how to write basic programs. This book isn''t like that.

You''ll discover ways to obtain Microsoft code and save hours of development time; you''ll uncover the truth behind creating fast programs that run on anything from PDAs to mobile phones to microwaves; you''ll be exposed to a hidden .NET language; and you''ll find out why you need to know at least some C# (and then be given a cheat course on the basics.)

The useful code and .NET programming tips having been personally developed by the author over the past three years—these aren''t updated Visual Basic 6 code scraps. Everything within these pages has been created and tested for VB .NET and ASP.NET.

Most programming books are about as exciting as Bill Gates'' left ear. But with this latest eye-opening release, technology author Karl Moore shows it doesn''t have to be quite so dull and uninspiring.
