      Most CEOs say the same thing- finding good people is difficult and a matter of luck rather than skill, as being great on paper doesn't always translate to being great in practice. In Good People, venture capitalist Anthony Tjan explainsthefive difficulties that make 'goodness' so uncommon in business, and features numerous profiles of 'good people' who are extraordinary leaders and motivators in their fields, including Dominic Barton, Managing Director of McKinsey & Co and Gary Knell, CEO of National Geographic. Tjan offers practical advice of how to achieve and sustain a competitive advantage in your own business- a set of values for developing oneself and others in both business and beyond.

      Heart, Smarts, Guts, and Luck
    • Narratives are everywhere - and since a significant part of contemporary media culture is defined by narrative forms, media studies need a genuinely transmedial narratology. Against this background, Transmedial Narratology and Contemporary Media Culture focuses on the intersubjective construction of storyworlds as well as on prototypical forms of narratorial and subjective representation.
