Dialogue Among Civilizations explores the social, cultural, and philosophical underpinnings of "civilizational dialogue" by asking questions like these: What is the meaning of such dialogue? What are its preconditions? Are there different trajectories for different civilizations? Is there also a dialogue between past and future involving remembrance? Exemplary voices range from Ibn Rushd, Goethe and Hafiz to Soroush, Gadamer, and the Mahatma Gandhi.

Rejecting the notion that one solution fits all when it comes to improving employee performance, Michael Sabbag instead focuses on building exemplary performance with one employee, one step at a time. He lays out a simple process to identify the right performance focus--one exemplary strength that can be leveraged and one expandable strength with development potential. He then shows how to select the right combination of tools and solutions--from job redesigns to one-on-one coaching--to achieve peak performance. In chapter-by-chapter detail, the seven key performance factors are examined to he
