A New York Times Bestseller Introducing the new, realistic loyalty pact between employer and employee. The employer-employee relationship is broken, and managers face a seemingly impossible dilemma: the old model of guaranteed long-term employment no longer works in a business environment defined by continuous change, but neither does a system in which every employee acts like a free agent. The solution? Stop thinking of employees as either family or as free agents. Think of them instead as allies. As a manager you want your employees to help transform the company for the future. And your employees want the company to help transform their careers for the long term. But this win-win scenario will happen only if both sides trust each other enough to commit to mutual investment and mutual benefit. Sadly, trust in the business world is hovering at an all-time low. We can rebuild that lost trust with straight talk that recognizes the realities of the modern economy. So, paradoxically, the alliance begins with managers acknowledging that great employees might leave the company, and with employees being honest about their own career aspirations. By putting this new alliance at the heart of your talent management strategy, you'll not only bring back trust, you'll be able to recruit and retain the entrepreneurial individuals you need to adapt to a fast-changing world. These individuals, flexible, creative, and with a bias toward action, thrive when they're on a specific "tour of duty"--when they have a mission that's mutually beneficial to employee and company that can be completed in a realistic period of time. Coauthored by the founder of LinkedIn, this bold but practical guide for managers and executives will give you the tools you need to recruit, manage, and retain the kind of employees who will make your company thrive in today's world of constant innovation and fast-paced change. "This book will force you to see the future, it will show you new models of work, and it has the eminence and perspective to make your entire team think... an important new book which is well worth a read." -- Forbes "an essential handbook for dealing with the challenges of managing an ever more connected, ever more mobile workforce." -- Barnes & Noble "In a provocative new book, the father of social networks reveals a startling new way to reframe the relationship between employers and employees." -- Fortune magazine ADVANCE PRAISE for The Alliance: Jeffrey R. Immelt, Chairman and CEO, General Electric-- "GE is competing in its third century. The key to sustained performance is developing competitive leaders in every era. The Alliance captures the essence of modern talent development: trust and mutual value creation helps both employer and employee compete in the marketplace. The authors lay out a framework that helps big companies as well as start-ups develop their people more effectively, while creating a competitive team." Kenneth I. Chenault, Chairman and CEO, American Express-- "Engaged employees are the key to success in any business. The Alliance is a terrific book that offers real-world insights on how to build loyalty, inspire creativity, and manage winning teams for the long term."

《如何成为金牌自由翻译》就是从实用角度和从业者的角度，对自由翻译作了全面而又细致的介绍，比如什么是自由翻译，自由翻译的成长心得和炼金术，所遇到的一些常见问题以及解决方法。翻译，往往给人一种古老而又神秘的印象，甚至还有些神圣感，比如历史上著名的佛经翻译。实际上，翻译离学外语的人并不遥远。也许有人会问：“有没有明确的方向来指引我怎样做翻译啊？”需要特别说明的是，《如何成为金牌自由翻译》的翻译技巧和心得，虽然主要针对英语翻译，但是这些“秘笈”实际上对其他语种的翻译也是适用的。大同小异，其他语种的译员稍微变通一下就可以吸收。考虑到自己一家之言难免有不足之处，笔者还专门采访了10多位优秀的成功翻译人士，多角度介绍了他们做翻译的经验、心得，比如女士做翻译应该怎样避免电脑辐射，小语种译员的从业心得以及营销策略，等等。希望能“授”读者以“渔”。
