Is Silence Killing Your Strategy? In his thirty years of working in corporations, Harvard Business School professor Michael Beer has witnessed firsthand how organizational silence derails strategic objectives. When employees can't speak truth to power, senior leaders don't hear what they need to hear about their company's fitness to compete, and employees lose trust in those leaders and become less committed to change. In Fit to Compete, Beer presents an antidote to silence--principles and a time-tested innovative process for holding honest conversations with everyone in your organization. Used by over eight hundred organizations across the globe, the strategic fitness process has helped leaders in a diverse range of industries--including medical technology, information technology, banking, restaurant chains, and pharmaceuticals--hear the raw but necessary truth about the sources of misalignment between their strategies and their organizations. In addition to step-by-step instructions, Beer offers detailed and illustrative case studies of companies that have conducted honest conversations to great effect. He also shows how to apply the process more broadly to a variety of strategic challenges and at multiple levels throughout the organization. Practical, enlightening, and comprehensive, Fit to Compete is the book you should turn to if you to want create winning strategies that your entire company will rally behind.

Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) has two main components: diseases of the heart (cardio) and diseases of the blood vessels (vascular). As such, the circulatory system of the heart and blood vessels make up the cardio-vascular system. For example, a heart attack is a disease of the heart while stroke is a disease of the blood vessels. Both are major forms of CVD. CVD has been the number one killer in the United States every year for more than a century, except during the 1918 flu pandemic. In 2004, CVD claimed 871,500 lives or one out of every 2.8 deaths. The cost of caring for patients with CVD in the United States for 2006 is estimated at a whooping sum of US$403.1 billion. The good news is that we don’t have to be victimized by CVD. Find out how the “silent killers within,” namely pre-diabetes, diabetes, cholesterol and high blood pressure, are connected to CVD. Discover how diet and nutrition, selected food supplementation and lifestyle changes can help you prevent or reduce your risk of CVD. The advice contained in this book can open the door to a healthier, richer, and happier life. Take a positive step now to arrest the “silent killers within” and you will add years to your life and life to your years.
