[Italian] - Di notte, a New York

"2019, New York. Leo Van Meegeren è appena uscito di prigione dopo aver scontato una pena di tre anni. È un pittore di talento, osserva il mondo attraverso i suoi occhi grigi chiarissimi ed è così abile da riuscire a riprodurre alla perfezione le opere dei grandi artisti del passato e spacciarle per vere. È proprio questa capacità che l'ha portato dietro le sbarre, e adesso le vittime delle sue truffe gli stanno addosso per saldare i conti. Nel frattempo, Lorraine Demarsan, per metà parigina e per metà newyorkese, si sta preparando a trasferirsi nella Grande Mela per gestire il nuovo ufficio dell'agenzia di comunicazione di cui è socia. Da qualche tempo, però, riceve inquietanti messaggi anonimi da qualcuno che sostiene di essere l'assassino di suo padre, un celebre gallerista d'arte ucciso a colpi di pistola a Manhattan quando lei era ancora bambina. Una notte, a pochi passi da Central Park, si sta vendendo all'asta La sentinella, famoso dipinto di Victor Czartoryski, artista enigmatico e 'maledetto', che Leo ammira da sempre. Ed è proprio Lorraine ad aggiudicarsi l'opera. All'uscita dall'asta, mentre cammina nel parco, la donna viene aggredita da uno sconosciuto e riesce a salvarsi solo grazie al provvidenziale intervento di Leo. Anche se i due ancora non lo sanno, i loro destini sono profondamente legati, e il loro amore è tanto inevitabile quanto già segnato. Con un mix perfetto di romanticismo e suspense, Mark Miller scrive un romanzo rocambolesco in cui i protagonisti, muovendosi tra Parigi e New York, tentano di sciogliere i segreti del passato, spesso tenuti nascosti proprio dalle persone più vicine. Questo libro è la storia di una passione travolgente e incontrollabile e una lettera d'amore alla New York delle gallerie d'arte e dei vernissage, set di grandi romanzi e di film che hanno fatto la storia del cinema. contributori LE Alessio Talamo"

Win the Heart: How to Create a Culture of Full Engagement

"Employee engagement is shockingly low-but it's not an employee problem; it's a leadership problem. Bestselling author Mark Miller says it's up to leaders to create a workplace where their employees truly want to be-and he reveals four keys to doing it. According to Gallup's 2017 report, only 33% of workers are engaged at work--and the numbers have been low for years. Leaders have tried and failed to address this critical problem. Based on Mark Miller's research, this book both simplifies and operationalizes the necessary behaviors to reverse this troubling trend. The missing link is realizing that the pandemic of low engagement is not a problem with the workers, it is a problem with the leaders. In this charming fable, Blake, a young CEO, is convinced something is not quite right in his organization. Sales, profits, and customer satisfaction are barely improving, the competition is gaining on them and no one appears to care. And when he's honest with himself, he's lost his fire as well. He just can't put his finger on the problem. Blake seeks out his old friend and first mentor, Debbie Bruster. She sends Blake on a journey to discover the key to engaging leadership. By the end of his journey, Blake has discovered a powerful philosophy to guide his decisions in the future, and four drivers of engagement to implement today."

[Spanish] - El corazón del liderazgo: Cómo ser un líder que la gente quiera seguir

"What makes for a truly exceptional leader? Certainly, leaders need people skills, execution skills, a deep knowledge of industry trends, the ability to articulate a vision, and more-they must be competent-but that's just the tip of the iceberg. What's below the waterline? What's deep inside the best leaders that makes them different? The Spanish language edition of the bestselling title The Heart of Leadership is ready to help you answer the question-Are you the type of leader people want to follow? You can be--but first, you've got to understand what sets great leaders apart from all the rest. Certainly, leaders need people skills, execution skills, a deep knowledge of industry trends, the ability to articulate a vision, and more--they must be competent--but that's just the tip of the iceberg. What's below the waterline? What's deep inside the best leaders that makes them different? Mark Miller contends it is their leadership character. In his latest enlightening and entertaining business fable, he describes the five unique character traits exhibited by exceptional leaders and how to cultivate them. The Heart of Leadership begins with young and ambitious Blake Brown being passed over for a desperately wanted promotion, despite an outstanding individual performance. Confused and frustrated, he turns to his former mentor, Debbie Brewster. Rather than attempting to solve Blake's problem for him, she sends him on a quest to meet with five of his late father's colleagues, each of whom holds a piece of the puzzle he's trying to solve. As Blake puts the pieces together, he discovers that in the final analysis, a lack of skills isn't what holds most leaders back; skills are too easy to learn. Without demonstrated leadership character, however, a skill set will never be enough. Most often, when leaders fail to reach their full potential, it is an issue of the heart. This is Blake's ultimate revelation. This book shows us that leadership needn't be the purview of the few--it is within reach for millions around the world. The Heart of Leadership is a road map for every person who desires to make a difference in the lives of others and become a leader people want to follow."

Legacy in the Making: Building a Long-Term Brand to Stand Out in a Short-Term World

"Named one of Forbes' Top Ten Business Books American Marketing Association Berry Book Award Winner International Book Award Winner American Business Awards Silver Medalist Business Book Awards Finalist for International Book of the Year A book for a different breed of business leader, one who looks beyond the moment to create a life of significance. Most of us are familiar with the traditional way of looking at legacy—something preserved in the past. Traditional legacy is all around us, evidenced by the steady churn of autobiographies, bequests, commemorations, and dedications we are forever leaving in our collective cultural wake. This is not the legacy you will find in this book. Legacy in the Making celebrates an active, dynamic form of 'modern legacy,' seen through the eyes of a select group of extraordinary men and women who are pursuing their enduring ambitions in the age of now. More than caretakers of the past, these modern legacy builders are also the authors of a vital today and tomorrow. Rather than leaving their legacies behind them, they are looking ahead to harness their long-term ambitions and inspire others to help carry them forward. These are not static, traditional legacies. These are legacies in the making."
