Need Respect Trust is the remarkable story of the internationally renowned investment bank founded by Nemir Kirdar. Intent on pursuing a career in public life in the land of his birth, the young Kirdar finds his aspirations brutally cut short by a coup d'état and the massacre of Iraq's royal family. Seeing no future in Iraq, Kirdar flees to the United States to continue his studies. Persuaded to return and set up his own business, he is later incarcerated in a Ba'ath Party jail. Freed, he arrives for the second time on US shores with $800 in his pocket and begins training at the lowest level in New York's banking industry. Through talent and application, he climbs the corporate ladder and ends up running Chase Manhattan's business in the Arabian Gulf. There, a convergence of business and economic trends changes his life and leads him to create a new kind of banking institution. Built on integrity and principle, Investcorp becomes a bridge between the burgeoning oil wealth of the Gulf and alternative investment opportunities in the West, on both sides of the Atlantic. This is an inspirational book about overcoming obstacles and what can be achieved through courage, vision, passion and leadership. Need, Respect, Trust is a stirring personal manifesto of what it takes to succeed in business - and in life.

Love, Respect and Trust is a work about solidifying healthy relationships, particularly, in marriages so that the quality of our life improves. As a mathematician, I have attempted to wrap structure around the architecture of marriage so that couples can peer into its elements and begin to see the mechanisms for happiness. Having been married to the lovely woman in red for 50 years has given me a plethora of human experiences and wisdom. Being married to Karen was like living a symphony. The concepts for improvement are built around 7 new relationship models and there are a number of tools and techniques now available for the couple to use to make breakthroughs in the interpersonal side of the equation. By equipping partners with some simple tools we can begin to solve problems in the marriage like never before. If the quality of the relationship is low then we struggle and the relationship can be a burden. There is no reason that a relationship cannot reflect total joy. It's a matter of wanting to make a difference and following the guidelines here to set you in the right direction. The bottom line is that we can enjoy life more, there is less stress on the family, trust is now a common denominator, the children are subjected to a favorable learning environment and everyone is having fun. My purpose here is to begin to bring marriages back to what they were meant to be... filled with love and the right ingredients. If we can save more marriages, I believe we can improve the quality of life in America and improve the bottom lines of all businesses. Productivity would improve and our economy would turn around for the better. A happily run household is like a small engine contributing to society in a team environment and setting exceptional examples for our future leaders. I dedicate this work to my wife, Karen, who provided the inspiration for this book and set the example for a mother, grandmother and wife. My children loved their mother and would always go to her for advice. My youngest daughter shot herself in the head partly due to her passing. The grief is sometimes overwhelming but this book is a cinema of wonderful experiences for our 50 years of joy. It is full of lessons learned, problems resolved and celebrations of great times together. Our relationship can be characterized as a passionate one full of music, intelligent discussion and the love and support of our heavenly Father. Acknowledgements I think this book is a masterpiece of wisdom, practical advice and valuable lessons learned. I especially like the piece on Respect. So important. It's the kind of book that needs to be read multiple times in order to absorb the truth you are expressing. And it serves well as a go-to-guide for solving/understanding problems as they arise in a marriage. A body of work well-done with enduring value and wisdom!!! Michael Druley, Owner Executive Recruiting Partners South Bend, Indiana What a valuable piece of work this is. Everyone should read this. Your writing is heartfelt and your charts and graphs are clear and easily understood. Patricia Druley South Bend, Indiana"

Why does communication between couples remain the number one marriage issue? Because most spouses don't know that they speak two different languages. Communication expert Dr. Emerson Eggerich says that the problem is couples are sending each other messages in 'code,' but they won't crack that code until they see that she listens to hear the language of love and he listens to hear the language of respect. Dr. Eggerichs' best-selling book, Love and Respect, launched a revolution in how couples relate to each other. In The Language of Love and Respect, you will discover: The basic communication differences between men and women A biblical perspective with easy-to-use tips and advice A quick review and summary for each chapter This book offers a practical, step-by-step approach for how husbands and wives can learn to speak each other’s distinctly different language -- respect for him, love for her. The result is mutual understanding and a successful, happy marriage. Previously released as Cracking the Communication Code.

"A long and happy marriage." It sounds like the end of a fairy tale--an illusion that modern times have exposed. And it is, if marriage depends on a constant stream of romantic emotion, or even on copious amounts of time or money. Thank the Lord, none of those are necessary. Two thousand years ago, Paul gave women the key to a successful marriage, and it can be summed up in two words: unconditional respect. It's not popular. It doesn't sound fair. It can be hard to imagine. But it works. Nina Roesner has led countless women through this practical and life-changing journey, and in The Respect Dare she offers you the hope that so many others have found. Day by day, true stories and thought-provoking questions will help you apply biblical wisdom to the most important relationship in your life. The book is filled with stories of struggle and success, and many practical applications of respect that have dramatically impacted marriages. Give it forty days. Experience the intimacy God intended and discover what he can do in your heart and in your marriage when you choose to show respect his way.
