Triggers: Sparking positive change and making it last RS 399 OFFER RS 350
In business, the right behaviors matter. But getting it right is tricky. Even when we acknowledge the need to change what we do and how we do it, life has a habit of getting in the way, upsetting even the best-laid plans. And just how do we manage those situations that can provoke even the most rational among us into behaving in ways we would rather forget? Triggers confronts head-on the challenges of behavior and change, looking at the external factors (Or ';triggers';) - both negative and positive - that affect our behaviors, our awareness of when we need to change, our willingness (Or otherwise) to do so and our ability to see the change through. Drawing on his unparalleled experience as an international executive educator and coach, Marshall Goldsmith invites us to understand how our own beliefs and the environments in which we operate can trigger negative behaviors, or a resistance to the need to change. But he also offers up some simple, practical advice to help us navigate the negative and make the most of the triggers that will help us to sustain positive change.

Disrupting Digital Business
Create an Authentic Experience in the Peer-to-Peer Econ
By: R "Ray" Wang RS 895 OFFER RS 800
Companies succeeding in the digital era have done so not just because of their technology but also because of their understanding of what it takes to build an organization in a digital age. From building a culture of digital DNA to an understanding of what’s required to succeed in new business models. Given we no longer sell products or deliver on services, the world of digital requires us to focus on experiences and outcomes. We move from selling products to keeping brand promises.
Organizations usually react to change by denying, delaying, and disparaging. But that’s a recipe for failure. As with past transformations, organizations must prepare to move ahead of these social, organizational, and technology shifts or be left behind as digital business disruption becomes a necessity. Ray Wang provides a different approach—at once, insightful and practical. By observing the march of technological progress over the past few decades, Wang analyzes the trends that businesses must pay attention and how they should react to them. Those trends, when taken seriously, require a new way of
thinking about business.
Unbound : 2000 Years of Indian Women';s Writing Price: Rs.595 offer rs 500
Profound, exhilarating, haunting, angry and meditative, Unbound is a collection that will shatter stereotypes about women';s writing in India.
Unbound is a collection of some of the most significant writing by Indian women over the past two thousand years. Divided into eleven sections, it encompasses writing on various aspects of life-spirituality, love, marriage, children, food, work, social and individual identity, battles, myths and fables, travel and death. While many of the pieces are commentaries on the struggle that women undergo to overcome obstacles - social and political - all of them showcase the remarkable creative ability of their creators. The term women';s writing has often been used to limit and stereotype the work of women writers. But it also has a larger and more constructive meaning and that is the sense in which it has been used to inform and describe the context of the book. As Annie Zaidi explains in her introduction - women bring to their writing the truth of their bodies and an enquiry into the different ways in which gender inequity shapes human experience.
