    Five Brain Leadership: How Neuroscience Can Help You Master Your Instincts and Build Better Teams by Carlos Davidovich MD, Jennifer Elizabeth Brunton PhD Amazon.com Carlosdavidovich.com Lead smarter. A handbook for your brain at work. High pressure. High conflict. High stress. Today, too many leaders believe that these states are not just natural, but inevitable. Nothing could be further from the truth. Using his skills as a medical doctor and his knowledge from many years in executive positions in the biotech pharmaceutical industry, in Five Brain Leadership, executive coach Carlos Davidovich walks you through the latest breakthroughs in the burgeoning fields of neuroscience, epigenetics, and cognitive behavior to help you better understand your multilayered, magical mind, and how to work with it instead of against it in leading your team and building relationships. Neuromanagement is at the intersection of neuroscience and daily life in the business world. It is leadership that is based on a full understanding of all five of our interlocking brains—our reptilian, emotional, rational, and, yes, even our heart and gut “brains.” Through practical tools and exercises, you’ll learn how to build your capacity in each of these control centers, and to recognize all the ways they are at play in how humans operate, interrelate, and react to change. Five-Brain Leadership is your pathway toward turning good leadership into great leadership, and reaching new levels of success in all of life’s domains. About the author Carlos Davidovich, MD, is a performance and executive coach with over twenty years of experience. Originally educated as a medical doctor and drawing on his management experience in business executive roles for multinational pharmaceutical companies, Davidovich combines his understanding of the brain and of business to deliver lectures, workshops, and coaching modalities that help his clients apply the principles of neuromanagement within their organizations to create sustainable change. Davidovich teaches in several MBA programs in Canada and Europe, and is a thought leader with the Institute of Coaching at McLean Hospital.

    You and the Sunshine, Dylan...The Life and Times of a Caring Friend by Linda Sanders Amazon.com Dylan, the Golden Retriever therapy dog, has helped so many. As Sanders writes, "I considered it my responsibility to do whatever was necessary to see that he could fulfill his mission in life . . . to be of service to others." Sanders carries on Dylan's work with this book. With touching photos and heartfelt, unadorned prose, sometimes humorous, sometimes stark and uncompromising, Sanders reveals the depth and power of interspecies communication, bonding, and support. When Dylan looked at you, his gaze penetrated directly into your soul. Any posturing of the ego or cultural assumptions of human superiority evaporated into the profound comfort of sharing the essence of one's existence with another sympathetic being.
