Book Description
Eigenlijk is het leven één grote feedbacksessie: dagelijks krijgen we advies en kritiek van vrienden, familie, collega's, klanten, leidinggevenden en zelfs van huisdieren. En ook al weten we dat feedback zeer waardevol kan zijn, vaak negeren we het of herkennen het überhaupt niet. Feedback is een cadeautje is het eerste boek dat focust op succesvol feedback ontvangen. Hoe komt het dat we kritiek kunnen ervaren als een aanval op onze identiteit? Waarom vinden we zo snel dat de ander 'geen recht van spreken' heeft? Hoeveel nuttige inzichten laten we liggen omdat 'het nu niet het juiste moment is'? Goed feedback kunnen ontvangen heeft allerlei voordelen: je relaties worden er sterker door, je zelfvertrouwen groeit en mensen vinden het prettiger om met je samen te werken. Op humorvolle wijze en met vele praktijkvoorbeelden laten Douglas Stone en Sheila Heen zien hoe iedereen zich kan trainen in het herkennen en verwerken van feedback. Want of je nu in een grote of kleine organisatie werkt, binnen een team opereert, een relatie of een gezin hebt: feedback is en blijft een cadeautje.

When Monique LeBlanc disappears from Nova Scotia, her cousin Michelle is panic-stricken. Their summer vacation has taken an ominous turn, and a search begins. At the site of Monique's disappearance in Grand-Pre Historic Park, police find a picture of her mother, Catherine, who passed away years ago, near Evangeline's statue. Michelle knows that Monique is visiting the park to honor the dream she shared with her mother of visiting their Canadian homeland. What she doesn't know is that Monique has gone back in time to her ancestors' exile, actually living through the horrific deportation of thousands of Acadians to Louisiana in 1755.

Book Description
“Wise, vulnerable, and surprisingly relatable . . . funny in all the right places and enormously helpful throughout. It will change how you think about death.” —Rachel Held Evans, New York Times–bestselling author of Searching for Sunday We are a people who deeply fear death. While humans are biologically wired to evade death for as long as possible, we have become too adept at hiding from it, vilifying it, and—when it can be avoided no longer—letting the professionals take over. Sixth-generation funeral director Caleb Wilde understands this reticence and fear. He had planned to get as far away from the family business as possible. He wanted to make a difference in the world, and how could he do that if all the people he worked with were . . . dead? Slowly, he discovered that caring for the deceased and their loved ones was making a difference—in other people’s lives to be sure, but it also seemed to be saving his own. A spirituality of death began to emerge as he observed the family who lovingly dressed their deceased father for his burial; the nursing home that honored a woman’s life by standing in procession as her body was taken away; the funeral that united a conflicted community. Through stories like these, told with equal parts humor and poignancy, Wilde’s candid memoir offers an intimate look into the business of death and a new perspective on living and dying. “Open[s] up conversations about life’s ultimate concerns.” —The Washington Post “As a look behind the closed doors of the death industry, as well as a candid exploration of Wilde’s own faith journey, this book is fascinating and compelling.” —National Catholic Reporter “[A] stunner of a debut.” —Rachel Held Evans, author of Inspired
