        by Mariel Mambretti

        This volume has the virtue of focusing on one of the resources that large companies appeal to most today: teamwork. The current complexity of businesses means that they must be approached with a plurality of points of view, which is achieved through a conjunction of different opinions and qualities. You will be able to know the secrets of how to join a good work group and how to make your work perform and look without entering sterile competitions. But at the same time, every human group requires a leader and this aptitude, that of leadership, is another of the most valued today. Here you will learn about the means by which those who created their own business, or lead large corporations, got to get what they needed and expected from others. Skills and attitudes such as persuasion, respect, the wise distribution of rewards and punishments, and the ability to instill enthusiasm will awaken the leader in you. Leadership is learned, earned, deserved. Know how and take action.

        Negociación. ¿Cooperar o competir?

        Segunda edición actualizada.

        by Darío Rodríguez Mansilla, María Pilar Opazo, Cristián Saieh Mena

        Todos debemos aprender a negociar, no hay escapatoria. Nuestra vida es una negociación permanente. En toda comunicación, desde una conversación entre amigos, pasando por la compra de un auto o la venta de una empresa, hasta la conducción de un Estado, se producen conflictos y se toman decisiones que es necesario negociar. Pero las personas muchas veces administran el conflicto y la toma de decisiones que este conlleva en forma deficiente y, adicionalmente, el inadecuado manejo de la comunicación termina en resultados con pérdida de valor, tiempo, esfuerzo y, lo que es peor, daño a las relaciones. A diferencia de otros títulos, Negociación, ¿cooperar o competir? aporta una metodología novedosa y práctica para abordar una negociación, basada en la teoría de los sistemas sociales y la comunicación, la que va más allá del conocido ganar-ganar. En esta segunda edición actualizada se han introducido complementos y perfeccionamientos a la metodología que se propone. En concreto, especial importancia tiene el capítulo de preparación estratégica de las negociaciones, clave en una cultura dada a la improvisación como la latinoamericana. También se ha abordado en extenso la confianza, tan golpeada hoy en muchos países, que es la base de una negociación exitosa. Con ejemplos prácticos y un estilo amistoso y directo, Negociación, ¿cooperar o competir? nos enseña todo sobre el desafiante proceso de una negociación, desde su planificación, seguido por las opciones de valor, la legitimidad, el cómo y dónde trazar la línea ética, hasta la manera de generar poder, cerrar una negociación y formalizar un acuerdo que refleje transacciones exitosas. "Los conflictos son mucho más frecuentes de lo que se cree y, afortunadamente, menos dañinos de lo que se teme. Sus causas, efectos, grados de intensidad y violencia son diversos, por lo cual existen variadas estrategias y prácticas para enfrentarlos. Los conflictos son inherentes a todo sistema social y pueden generar mayor valor en la mesa de negociación si son gestionados en forma adecuada. Entender los conflictos y su dinámica es fundamental para alcanzar negociaciones exitosas". Pag 15.

        What Would the Pope Say?

        by Jaime Larrain

        Pope Francis is at a crossroads. The Catholic Church, still reeling from the cases of child abuse and the corruption scandals of the Vatican Bank, has an opportunity for redemption or for a final nail in the coffin, after the Pope’s closes advisor, Cardinal Bullbridge, is kidnapped. While the Pope ponders the destiny of the Church, Aum, the leader of the Chrysallis Team that in 2016 kidnapped business moghul Brian Feller, has set for himself the tremendous challenge of gathering the most important religious leaders of the world so they can witness The Experiment, a mysterious process that could breathe new life into the Catholic Faith. The Experiment was born in the island of Ithaca in 2010, thanks to the work of Aum and Father Thomas, the guardian of the Vatican´s secret files. The motivations of Aum and Thomas are not merely academic, there’s a much larger political agenda at play. Being 86 years of age, and with a very sick son, Aum rolls the dice and brings together the Dalai Lama, Pope Francis, historian Yuval Harari, philosopher Michael Onfray, and many others. But Cardinal Bullbridge wants to put an end to his, which he sees as a threat to the Papacy. And Commissioner Scorza, Vatican Chief of Security, is trying to solve the riddle while also dealing with some scandals of his own making. What Would the Pope Say? Is not just a history of the Vatican, it is the history of an ancient dream that can now become reality, a dream we all carry inside: a spirituality that goes beyond religions, and that is one and universal.
