The lean and agile philosophies are terms that define modern technics to make our projects fast and efficient, without adding costs or reducing quality. The five principles of the lean thinking have its origin during the 90s decade in a Japanese automotive industry. This approach helps to improve the efficiency in mass production projects by focusing in adding value to the client and removing waste from the project value flow. Ten years later the Manifesto for Agile Software Development and its twelve agile principles got popular. These ideas propose not to be too strict with plans and processes. Context can change permanently and we need to be flexible with the client in order to quickly adapt to those changes, if we want to submit the deliverables we have been asked for. From these two currents of thoughts, one that focuses on mass production and another that focuses on software projects, in this book we will develop ideas 100% practical to improve efficiency and timeliness of any type of project management. Also, some of the concepts in this book will allow us to become more agile leaders in our daily activities. The author, Pablo Lledó, has written eight books on Project Management. Some of them have been published by mayor Publishing companies. The author states that the benefits of reading this book are: - Understand the lean-agile philosophy in a very simple way. - Learn lessons from more than 20 real cases. - Gain knowledge through more than 10 practical exercises. - Save time and money when compared with other books. - Be a better Project Manager.

The newest book in Kristen Callihan's fan-favorite GAME ON world delivers an emotionally charged NFL romance with a fake engagement, childhood-friends-to-lovers tension, and the kind of slow-burn yearning that will wreck you. Perfect for fans of Elle Kennedy and high-heat sports romance. A "fake" fiancée is just the trick to help a bad-boy football player clean up his image. Trouble is, there's nothing fake about the way August feels about his "pretend" fiancée. August Luck is on the brink of greatness: #1 NFL draft pick, a new starting quarterback role, and a future everyone expects him to dominate. But he keeps making headlines for all the wrong reasons. After his latest stunt goes viral, everyone agrees: he needs to get it together. Penelope Morrow grew up alongside August. Their mothers were best friends. The Luck family practically raised her. But August barely spoke to her, and Pen was always too shy to do anything but flee the room when he walked in. She's spent years convinced he couldn't stand her. He's spent years convinced of the same. When Pen inherits her grandparents' house but can't afford the estate tax, August sees an opportunity: a fake engagement that solves both their problems. He cleans up his image. She keeps her home. Simple. Except nothing about Pen has ever been simple for August. And the longer they pretend, the harder it gets to keep the truth buried: this was never fake. Not for him. And maybe not for her either. All's fair in love and football…game on. "August and Pen's story had me in a chokehold! Tension. Banter. Yearning. Emotional depth. I (gleefully) did not come up for air until the final page." -Mia Sheridan, New York Times bestselling author Perfect for readers who love: Fake engagement / fake dating Childhood friends to lovers Mutual secret yearning Slow-burn NFL romance Shy girl / sunshine boy Hero in hot pursuit Love spicy football romance?

The Sunday Times and New York Times Bestseller ' The master of productivity.' Steven Bartlett, creator of Diary of a CEO 'The book we've all been waiting for.' Dr Julie Smith, author of Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before? 'Will guide you to accomplish more than you ever dreamed of.' Jay Shetty, author of Think Like a Monk and 8 Rules of Love The secret to productivity isn't discipline. It's joy. We have all been told that the secret to productivity is simple: work harder. The trouble is, endless hard work doesn't just make us unhappier - it makes us less productive too. Here, Dr Ali Abdaal draws on the latest scientific research to show that the most productive people aren't those with the strongest discipline, or even the best habits: they're the ones who find meaning in the tasks before them. Along the way, he sketches out a healthier, happier path to accomplishing what matters - one rooted in discovering joy in everything you do.

This Henle Urtext edition in unrivalled in layout and precision. The professional journal “Rohrblatt” wrote shortly after its publication (in 2004): “An editorial stroke of genius … Every oboist who attempts this concerto must have his interpretation measured against this edition.” Such praise principally honors the editor, the famous oboist Ingo Goritzki. It was his idea to offer a supplement to the edited instrumental part that presents both sources of the work – each problematic in various ways – together with the edited part. Owing to this chosen arrangement of the score one can see all variants at a glance, and make one’s own justified performance decisions. Particularly problematic and oft-debated passages are discussed in detail by Professor Goritzki. The above-cited praise for “an editorial stroke of genius” also applies to Mozart expert and pianist Robert Levin, who has composed idiosyncratic cadenzas in the master’s style especially for Henle’s edition of Mozart’s oboe concerto; very much in the improvisatory spirit of a cadenza, one can jump from one place to another in the template thanks to a simple (numerical) cross-reference system, and thus craft one’s “own” cadenzas. Finally, a word about the much-praised piano reduction for this edition, which comes from Mozart expert and renowned continuo specialist Siegfried Petrenz. He aims for a well-sounding and not too technically-challenging keyboard part that is clearly removed from those often-found piano reductions that orient themselves around an orchestral scoring. In so doing, he also takes account of the typical instructional situation in which a professional accompanist is not always available to the oboist.

Fans of Hannah Grace and Elle Kennedy, meet your new obsession! The international college-romance phenomenon with over one million copies sold, now being adapted into an Amazon Prime TV series. He's the campus bad boy. She's his neighbour's ex. Who thought becoming roommates was a good idea? Lane O'Neill doesn't do drama, and his plan for senior year of college is simple: run the Campus Drivers ride-share app he co-founded with his best friends, cruise campus in his beloved vintage car, and enjoy the attention that comes with the ride. No strings attached. So when Lane stumbles upon a dishevelled woman asleep in his apartment building hallway, every instinct tells him to keep walking. After all, he doesn't do commitment. Unfortunately, Lois is freshly dumped, newly homeless, and a walking magnet for chaos. She's everything Lane avoids - yet somehow impossible to ignore. That's how he ends up with a temporary roommate, just until Lois can afford a new place. Easy enough. Except her relentless optimism and stubborn heart have an annoying knack for slipping past his carefully built walls. Too bad Lois is done playing the good girl, because she's about to break every rule he's ever lived by. Pick this up if you love: opposites attract, frenemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine, slow burn/yearning, lots of sexual banter, forced promixity, found family.

Dutiful and hard-working, Rhea Wolfe lives a simple, if mundane, life with her pet parrot in small-town Alabama. Sure, she may not love her desk job working for an insurance agency. And her on-again-off-again relationship with the local mechanic may not have the fiery passion she’s read about in her favorite books. Still, things are stable, which is more than she can say about the two hopelessly immature younger sisters who rely on her. But when Rhea’s estranged grandmother dies, leaving her everything—including a magical heritage Rhea never knew she carried—she finds herself in Arcadia Falls, the quaint mountain town her mother made her swear to avoid at all costs. While the defunct video store she’s also inherited needs a serious upgrade, Rhea’s lucky that resident handyman Hunter Blakely is more than happy to help—and more than easy on the eyes. If only he wasn’t the grandson of her grandmother’s sworn enemy in witchcraft. As Rhea works to build a future, strange occurrences begin to make her think someone—or something—is trying to drive her out. As she gets ever closer solving the mystery, each clue she uncovers points to Arcadia Falls’ magic hanging in the balance.

Rich, comic, alive and subtly devastating, Here We Are is a masterly piece of literary magicianship which pulls back the curtain on the human condition. 'He tells simple, truthful stories about what feel like real people. Here We Are is a welcome addition to a proud legacy.' The Big Issue The variety of voices and its historical and emotional reach are so finely entwined, it is as perfect and smooth as an egg. Passages leap out all the time, demanding to be reread, or committed to memory... It is perhaps too simple to say that Swift creates a form of fictional magic, but what he can do with a page is out of the ordinary, far beyond most mortals’ ken.' Rosemary Goring, The Herald 'Here We Are is a subtle portrait of a vanished world, with moving passages about the problems of wartime evacuees returning to impoverished London life after the wonders of the countryside.' The Independent ‘In Here We Are, Swift does not just dwell on the pivotal moments of our lives, but traces their shockwaves both forward and back. Moving seamlessly from pre-war to post, from the events of one illusory, youthful summer to the present, we are given candid access to the innermost reflections of three people who loved and betrayed each other. The end result is the stuff of life, an enduring mystery that Ronnie, Evie, Jack - that we all - must live with. I thought it was wonderful.’ Joseph Knox, author of Sirens Praise for Mothering Sunday: 'Bathed in light; and even when tragedy strikes, it blazes irresistibly… Swift’s small fiction feels like a masterpiece’ Guardian ‘Alive with sensuousness and sensuality … wonderfully accomplished, it is an achievement’ Sunday Times ‘From start to finish Swift’s is a novel of stylish brilliance and quiet narrative verve. The archly modulated, precise prose (a hybrid of Henry Green and Kazuo Ishiguro) is a glory to read. Now 66, Swift is a writer at the very top of his game’ Evening Standard ‘Mothering Sunday is a powerful, philosophical and exquisitely observed novel about the lives we lead, and the parallel lives – the parallel stories – we can never know … It may just be Swift’s best novel yet’ Observer

THE NATIONAL BESTSELLER WITH ONE MILLION COPIES SOLD! AN ECPA BESTSELLER A compelling emotional and spiritual case against hurry and in favor of a slower, simpler way of life—from the author of Practicing the Way “Prophetic; practical, and profoundly life giving . . . provides a way forward that creates hope, hunger, and a vision of a beautiful life. I consider this required reading.”—Jon Tyson, lead pastor of the Church of the City New York and author of Beautiful Resistance “Who am I becoming?” That was the question nagging pastor and author John Mark Comer. Outwardly, he appeared successful. But inwardly, things weren’t pretty. So he turned to a trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: “Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life.” It wasn’t the response he expected, but it was—and continues to be—the answer he needs. Too often we treat the symptoms of toxicity in our modern world instead of trying to pinpoint the cause. A growing number of voices are pointing at hurry, or busyness, as a root of much evil. Within the pages of this book, you’ll find a fascinating roadmap to staying emotionally healthy and spiritually alive in the chaos of the modern world.

'Mutant Message Down Under' is the gripping fictional account of the spiritual odyssey of an American woman in Australia. Summoned by a remote tribe of nomadic Aboriginals to accompany them on a walkabout through the outback, she makes a four month long journey with the 'Real People', as the tribe calls itself.

She faces daily tests of her endurance, and these challenges ultimately contribute to a profound personal transformation. 'Mutant Message Down Under', an underground bestseller in its self-published edition, recounts a unique, timely and powerful message for all humankind: that it is not too late to save our world from destruction, if we learn to respect all living beings and to live in harmony with the earth. "The story of a courageous woman who walked with the Aboriginals and learned the wonderful secrets and wisdom of an old, old tribe. Things we all need to learn in our modern society: to get back in touch with nature, to trust and have faith in our inner knowledge and guidance." ELISABETH KÜBLER-ROSS "A powerful message for all of us. I was hypnotised by the simple truths and spiritual lessons. Read it and tell everyone you know to do the same." WAYNE DYER

Alice Willoughby and her mom run HEA Books, a cozy shop devoted to love stories and the people who crave them. Alice is great at matching customers with their perfect happily-ever-after…she just can’t seem to find her own.

An oracle who can see the future teams up with the far-too-hot demon from her past to avert catastrophe, in this steamy paranormal romance from the USA Today bestselling author of Zomromcom. Gwen Wexloff might be able to see the future, but not when it matters. Her visions invariably involve piddling issues, which means—unlike most oracles—she’s spent her life predicting for everyday humans instead of international power brokers. After a clutch of brain-slurping zombies escapes from their walled-off compound, though, Gwen experiences the first genuinely world-altering vision of her life . . . and now she needs help. Unfortunately, that help comes from Hugh Blacke, the same starchy (but annoyingly cute) demon who watched her bomb her oracle verification test years ago. To Gwen's dismay, the two of them will need to work together to unravel the deadly conspiracy behind the zombie breach, despite their complicated past and the secrets they’re keeping. Even with her newfound power, she couldn't have foreseen how quickly they'd both want more than a simple partnership. But the clock is ticking—and with the fate of humanity at stake, Gwen and Hugh will have to decide how much they’re willing to risk for an unexpected, passionate love...and a future together that might prove very short indeed.
