Great Minds Think Unalike

- 9789401495073
You can't sit still. You don't like unannounced visitors. You always triple-check if the lights are out. But you also see details that no-one else notices. You're always coming up with surprising solutions. You can focus intensely for hours at a stretch. Usually without realising it, many people lie somewhere on the spectrum of a neurodivergent condition. We often tend to focus on the many downsides of neurodivergent conditions such as AD(H)D, ASD, dyslexia and OCD. This book takes a different approach by looking in depth at the special talents that go hand in hand with these conditions. Whether you already have a diagnosis or simply feel you're somewhere on the neuroatypical spectrum, one thing is certain: once you've identified your unique talents, you'll be able to make more focused choices in your life and work. You'll discover which jobs best showcase your talents, which colleagues complement your personality, and which environments and corporate cultures are right for you.

Saved By the Tree Frog

- 3 Octobre 2023
- 9789401497343
The twenty-first century began with an ecological shutdown, a climatic breakdown, a financial meltdown, and a virological lockdown. Without systemic change, twenty years from now we will be haunted more by the things we didn't do than by the things we did. That change is possible, if we can cure ourselves from our addiction to short-term investments, and turn them into long-term, planet-saving investments in nature. Saved by the Tree Frog puts forward how agriculture, politics and economy can reinforce each other. It explores the ways in which we can bring about real change, and transform into a sustainable and thriving society. Saved by the Tree Frog tells us what we can do to turn the tide, and offers an innovative insight into our fundamental dependence on nature. It is the way to a sustainable future - if only we are brave enough to take the plunge.

- 9782070427642
Que fait-on quand on regarde une peinture? À quoi pense-t-on? Qu'imagine-t-on? Comment dire, comment se dire à soi-même ce que l'on voit ou devine? Et comment l'historien d'art peut-il interpréter sérieusement ce qu'il voit un peu, beaucoup, passionnément ou pas du tout?En six courtes fictions narratives qui se présentent comme autant d'enquêtes sur des évidences du visible, de Velazquez à Titien, de Bruegel à Tintoret, Daniel Arasse propose des aventures du regard. Un seul point commun entre les tableaux envisagés:la peinture y révèle sa puissance en nous éblouissant, en démontrant que nous ne voyons rien de ce qu'elle nous montre. On n'y voit rien! Mais ce rien, ce n'est pas rien.Écrit par un des historiens d'art les plus brillants d'aujourd'hui, ce livre adopte un ton vif, libre et drôle pour aborder le savoir sans fin que la peinture nous délivre à travers les siècles.

The Capsular Civilization /

Lieven De Cautier
- Nai
- 31 Mars 2008
- 9789056624071
The spread of capsular civilization is a worst-case scenario that is taking shape before our very eyes, without us even being aware of it. In the face of the speed of our technology, the suburbanization of our daily lives and the ever more extreme but poignant polarization of our society, we feel obliged to return to the capsules of our vehicles, in architectural cocoons or urbanistic enclaves: malls, gated communities, amusement parks. Since September 11, the war in Iraq and the War on Terrorism, it has been almost impossible to dissociate architecture from its political and social context. Add to this the massive influence of capitalism on architecture, the disturbing demographic developments and the associated political, social and ecological catastrophes, and you get the robotic snapshot of a society dominated by fear, exclusion and simulation. De Cauter sketches a realistic and alarming account of the new world order that is an everyday concern for the architects and planners of the contemporary city as well as for its inhabitants and users.

Change can be Child´s Play

Yves Van Durme
- Lannoo
- 25 Avril 2023
- 9789401491020
Change management without clichés. Whether you are running a multinational or just running a family, change is not like a game of Monopoly, where your piece saunters sedately around the board from start to finish. Instead, it is much more like a game of Ludo, where you can have a number of pieces on the board at the same time, some of which are moving and some of which are not! This is just like in real life, because not moving is also a form of change management. With many years of worldwide experience, Yves Van Durme demonstrates how change can be much easier if you do not automatically regard it as a problem, but see it more as a question of the right mindset. In addition, you will learn more about his highly individualist views on leadership, in which the world of games is never far off. Whether you peruse the book from cover to cover or whether you just dip into it at random, by the end of your reading you will know exactly what kind of leader you are. You will also discover that change is really no more than child's play.

Homo digitalis

Thierry Geerts
- Lannoo
- 1 Septembre 2022
- 9789401485623
'All new technology is accompanied with great expectations on the one hand and great fear on the other. Thierry Geerts reduces the digital revolution to its true proportions and shows that we control the impact of technology ourselves: technology becomes what we make of it. Few are better placed than the author to clearly define the potential, the tasks, and the responsibility that awaits each and every one of us.' - Caroline Pauwels, rector of the VUB 'After Digitalis drew up the contours of the new digital world, Homo digitalis now describes how we can appropriate it so that digitalisation will benefit humanity. But instead of trying to convince at all costs, Thierry Geerts puts things in perspective. With great expertise, he guides us through numerous groundbreaking initiatives that start-ups and companies in Europe have often developed.'- Alain Gerlache, journalist 'This book couldn't have come out at a better time. Change can be scary for many, but above all, it brings many opportunities. Thierry Geerts fantastically explains how Digitalis can be an inclusive place where social mobility and equality are self-evident. Now it's up to our entrepreneurs, policymakers, and each of us as individuals to gear up and resolutely opt for the digital future.' - Yasmien Naciri, entrepreneur and marketer 'Think about the reasons for technology. That is the challenge that Thierry Geerts takes on with gusto and enthusiasm in this fascinating book.' - Laurent Hublet, co-founder and CEO of BeCentral, the largest digitalis campus in Europe In Homo digitalis, Thierry Geerts, CEO of Google Belgium and Luxembourg, looks at the dangers and opportunities of the digital revolution. Without taboos and with an eye to the future, he offers thoughtful examples of how digitalisation affects us as people and as a society. His conclusion is clear: technology is neutral, and it's up to people to use it consciously and confidently. If we do that, digitalisation will make us happier, with more time for creativity, personal development, healthcare, and the things that really matter. Then we'll become more human and we homo sapiens will turn into homo digitalis.

"A fabulous book: insightful, useful and timely! This page-turner takes you on a journey through great psychological research, interesting stories and practical techniques. You will arrive equipped for a life of more control, more optimism and less stress." Tony Crabbe, business psychologist and author of Busy. How to Thrive in a World of Too Much.

"Technology allows us to rethink companies, organizations, how we run them and how we manage them. However, the most essential element in achieving success will not be technology, but whether we humans can adapt, cope and thrive. This inspiring book is a brilliant field guide on how to use the power of our minds to harness the power of flow and build organizations for resilience." Peter Hinssen, entrepreneur, keynote speaker and author of The Day After Tomorrow. How to Survive in Times of Radical Innovations.

Every crisis is also an opportunity. We know what we need to do to make our lives and work more brain-friendly, but somehow, we are still not putting that knowledge into practice. Covid-19 has forced us into one of the biggest experiments in resilience of all time. What if we see this crisis as an opportunity for a genuine transformation? A chance to adopt new habits that will make us stronger than ever and help us face a volatile future? In her ground-breaking new book, Elke Geraerts shows us how we can all be ready for the many challenges awaiting us in a post-covid-19 world. Her approach takes the brain as the starting point and inspires you to make brain-aware choices in work and in life. She shows how hybrid work can both increase your productivity and reduce stress, how you can chase your dreams even in times of crisis and why - in an increasingly digital world - focus is the new IQ. The old normal will never return... but perhaps that is not such a bad thing!

A board of directors can contain people from various backgrounds, gender, sexual orientation, disabilities, and still make the same mistakes as a team of only white men. Why? From a "nice to have" to a "must-have", Diversity & Inclusion is nowadays a fashionable topic. Although most leaders are convinced of its benefits, some may not yet comprehend its potential. If the focus is on including "minorities", then what should we do about personality profiles? This profile is not revealed at first glance. You need to be open to other viewpoints, resolve difficulties with patience, feel empathy for your stakeholders, allow them just to be... natural.

Caillebotte et les impressionnistes : Histoire d'une collection

Paul Perrin, Stéphane Guégan, Fanny Matz, Sadekova Souria
- Hazan
- 2 Octobre 2024
- 9782754113700
Gustave Caillebotte est un homme de passions aux multiples facettes : tour à tour peintre, mécène, philatéliste, régatier ou encore jardinier, il est aussi l'un des plus grands collectionneurs de l'impressionnisme.
Ami de ces artistes indépendants, indéfectible soutien, organisateur de leurs expositions, Caillebotte est visionnaire. Il commence à acheter et à collectionner leurs oeuvres très tôt, convaincu de l'importance de cette nouvelle peinture. Il acquiert au total près de 70 oeuvres des plus grands noms de l'impressionnisme tels Monet, Renoir, Pissarro, Sisley, Manet, Degas et Cézanne.
Loin de penser qu'elles devaient se limiter à orner les appartements, il leur assigne un destin national et lègue ainsi par voie testamentaire sa collection à l'État.
Cet ouvrage retrace le parcours de ce Caillebotte collectionneur, l'histoire mouvementée du legs, le rôle déterminant de Renoir dans cette entreprise jusqu'à l'acceptation partielle par l'État.

Le Bal du Moulin de la Galette de Renoir, la Gare Saint-Lazare de Monet, le Balcon de Monet... 40 de ces oeuvres sont aujourd'hui conservées au musée d'Orsay et constituent le coeur de la collection impressionniste du musée.
