Dobrokhotov V: The G.R.E.A.T. Retention
Book

The G.R.E.A.T. Retention Book

The Wild Rose

This book demonstrates how legal knowledge is a vital, empowering tool in human rights education. Despite the centrality of international human rights law to the global rights framework, its role in teaching and learning about human rights in schooling is deeply contested in the scholarship of human rights education (HRE). Tackling this phenomenon head-on, the book examines how legal knowledge is framed, valued, or rejected in the theory and practice of HRE, engaging critically with the prevailing trends in the field: one that gestures toward law but avoids depth, and another that disavows its perceived centrality in subjugating local conceptions of human rights. Through a close reading of scholarship and policy, combined with insights from educational and political theory, as well as socio-legal studies, the book argues for law's role as a form of 'powerful knowledge' in HRE. It contends that access to and understanding of legal norms and mechanisms are essential to meaningful rights education, enabling learners to claim and exercise their rights in practice. The book will be of interest to scholars and students of human rights, legal pedagogy, and education policy, as well as practitioners developing HRE programs. It offers a timely, nuanced intervention into a field grappling with deep epistemological tensions, and reasserts the value of law in the struggle for rights.

The Exit Interview They Never Asked

The Skills of Modern Advocacy provides a comprehensive practical guide to modern advocacy, explaining its core components and demonstrating how you can develop and apply the necessary skillsets in practice.Presented as an engaging mix of explanation and practical examples, each aspect of modern-day advocacy is considered in three stages to suit all readers: the essential rules, practical how-to demonstrations and advanced technique. The book begins with an introduction to the language and etiquette of advocacy before moving to the important witness handling skills involved in examination-in-chief, cross-examination, re-examination and dealing with expert witnesses. The different skills involved in submission advocacy are then addressed in three main areas before the book gives guidance on the separate topics of questioning vulnerable witnesses, remote advocacy and written advocacy. The final chapter deals with the special court environment of the Inquest, an area where new barristers can often expect to receive instructions. The chapters draw repeatedly on a substantial set of mock case documents to give the skills demonstrations a consistent sense of context and realism.The authors have been practising barristers since the mid-1990s, and the book is packed with their combined experience and skills.This book will appeal to interested school and college students with little or no experience, to undergraduate law students and students of advocacy on Bar or solicitor training courses, or the SQE, and to newly qualified advocates who wish to deepen their knowledge and expand their skills.The book is supported by further online resources.

The Skills of Modern Advocacy

Gunnar Hering Lectures

Istanbul's population greatly suffered during WWI. Sanitary problems, pauperization, mortality rise deteriorated everyday life. The flows of refugees and military mobilization were major issues. Paradoxically, its Greek orthodox community increased in 1914-1918. After the Mudros Armistice (October 1918), it could hope for the Ottoman Empire's dismemberment and the return of Constantinople to the Greek fold. The events that followed and led to the birth of the Republic of Turkey would put an end to their expectations. The deterioration of everyday material life, the loyalty of Istanbul Greeks to the Ottoman State in wartime, ordinary people's position towards Hellenic irredentism are the main themes explored through the archives of Greek Orthodox parishes of the city and those of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.

Now a major movie.HarperCollins is proud to present our range of timeless literary classicsAll my days are consumed in longing - to travel home and see the day of my arrival dawn. If a god must shatter me upon the wine-dark sea, so be it.One of the most enduring tales ever told, The Odyssey is the original homecoming story. After the fall of Troy, victorious war-hero Odysseus sets off on his long return to Ithaca - an adventure which takes him through strange and foreign lands and brings a challenge at every turn from six-headed sea monsters and man-eating giants, seductive sorceresses and vengeful gods.Passed down through the generations for three thousand years, Homer's The Odyssey, has been celebrated as an undisputed great of Western literature. Here in a translation by T. E. Lawrence, this timeless epic explores the longing, determination and courage of those who find themselves a long way from home and asks whether someone who has been at war can ever truly return the same.

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMESAND IRISH TIMESNUMBER ONE BESTSELLER.THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER._Hope taught me the meaning of life, Tina taught me the meaning of love.It's not everyday you meet a golden retriever in Thailand.When Niall came across a dog shackled to a short chain and in a poor state of health something reminded him of his personal battle with addiction. He knew he had to rescue her immediately - golden retrievers are rare in Thailand - but there was just something about this dog in particular that told him she was destined for more.He named her Tina, and what she did next is an incredible tale of survival, hope and love. Despite her terrible treatment at the hands of humans, she refused to distrust them or feel sorry for herself, and only opened her heart wider - always with a grin (yes dogs can smile) and a reassuring wag of her shaggy yellow tail.From the minute Tina was free of her chains, she got on with what needed to be done, inspiring a dog hospital to be built and named after her and helping dogs from all over the world - whether they're street dogs from Thailand or rescue pups in Montana. The movement behind Tina has not stopped.This is her story.

The Illusion of Choice

How 'sticky' is your organization?It's not enough to get good people through the door: the crucial question is how long they'll stay. When you lose hard-to-replace colleagues to competitors, self-employment, retirement or 'a better life', your business can quickly come unstuck.As a leader, it's your job to retain and motivate the people with the skills, expertise and commitment your business needs to win. So how do you create a 'sticky' organization that makes your most valued employees want to stay?You give them freedom.Helen Beedham unpacks this paradox in this insightful guide for CEOs, COOs, CPOs and any leader who wants to fuel growth and reduce risk and costs by retaining talented people. She shows how businesses that enjoy stellar rates of retention have freedom in their DNA and how you can develop this low-risk, win-win approach too.Discover: <ul> <li>The anti-freedom forces at work that weaken your glue.</li> <li>The four freedoms that your organization should be offering.</li> <li>How to measure your performance on the Freedom Index.</li> </ul>

Please Do Disturb: How True Leaders Show Up When It Matters Most challenges one of leadership's biggest misconceptions, that great leadership is primarily about strategy, authority, or performance. Instead, Rachel Alday, Linny Jones, and Harte Logan make the case that exceptional leadership begins with something far more human: presence, connection, and the ability to create belonging. Drawing from Alday's decades of experience building a luxury hospitality company, and Jones and Logan’s organizational consulting perspective, the authors reveal how the principles behind extraordinary guest experiences can transform the way leaders serve their teams, organizations, and communities. Through engaging stories, practical frameworks, and lessons learned while growing a business to nearly $25 million in annual revenue managing approximately 200 luxury homes, they demonstrate that the leaders people remember aren't necessarily the ones with the best ideas—they're the ones who consistently show up when it matters most. At its heart, Please Do Disturb is a book about creating environments where people feel seen, heard, valued, and like they truly belong. It explores how intentional moments of connection build trust, strengthen culture, and inspire people to do their best work, not because they have to but because they want to, leading to phenomenal results. Whether you're leading a company, a team, or a family, or simply striving to become more intentional in your relationships, this book offers practical wisdom for cultivating deeper connection, fostering belonging, and leading with authenticity in a world that increasingly craves both. Please Do Disturb reminds us that leadership isn't measured by titles or influence alone. It's measured by the people we choose to notice, the connections we create, and the lasting sense of belonging we leave behind.

The Hollow Boys

From Monty Jay comes a haunting dark romance where obsession blurs into love, and darkness recognises its own.Death marked her long before she understood what it meant. Shaped by a past she's kept buried, she's spent her life hiding the truth of what lives inside her-something twisted, something dangerous.Something deadly.Until he sees her.Thatcher Alexander Pierson is as captivating as he is unsettling-sharp, calculating, and born from a legacy tainted by violence. Beneath his polished exterior lies something far darker, and when their paths collide, an unspoken connection takes hold.She becomes his fixation.He becomes her addiction.But what binds them isn't innocence-it's the darkness they both carry.When a copycat killer emerges in Ponderosa Springs, the fragile balance they've built begins to crack. As suspicion grows and past actions threaten to catch up with them, they are forced into an uneasy alliance-one that exposes their secrets, their desires, and the truth neither of them can escape.Because this isn't just about survival.It's about obsession.As danger closes in and their connection deepens, the line between love and destruction begins to disappear. And in a town where violence breeds more violence, one question remains-Can something so dark ever truly be called love?
