Book excerpt: This transformational tool offers leaders a critical resource for better understanding their organizations and themselves, honing their skills to become accomplished long-range planners and strategic thinkers. By working through the Participant Workbook, leaders will gain the insight needed to plan for results, learn from customers and clients, and ascertain how to achieve extraordinary levels of performance. The Participant Workbook draws on Peter F. Drucker's The Five Most Important Questions and is grounded in his management philosophies that address the critical aspects that make organizations viable and valuable entities. When leaders answer these questions thoughtfully and address them with purpose, these questions take one down a path to organizational transformation and enlightenment. By leveraging these essential questions, the Participant Workbook challenges leaders to take a close look at the very heart of their organization and what drives it, giving them a means to assess: how to be and how to develop quality, character, mind-set, values, and courage. Drucker's The Five Most Important Questions lead to spirited discussions and action, inspiring positive change and renewed focus. Designed for today's busy professionals, this concise, clear, and accessible workbook for social sector, nonprofit, and socially minded business and government leaders can be used as preparation for a workshop, organizational self-assessment, or as a stand-alone leadership development tool for individuals looking to develop themselves and their organizations.

Chen, president and CEO, "I Have A Dream" Foundation "High-performing organizations and individuals know that self-assessment through Drucker's The Five Most Important Questions is the starting point for defining today and making tomorrow." —Lee H. Igel, assistant professor, New York University, and president, Peter F. Drucker Society of New York City "This nuts-and-bolts guide has become my compass for urging leaders and managers to ask the right questions, to look beyond what they thought they knew, and to focus on being relevant tomorrow rather than resting on yesterday's achievements." —Lieutenant Commander Carla J. Grantham [U.S. Coast Guard, Retired], Congressional Liaison for Diversity Recruitment and Talent Management, U.S. Coast Guard

Download or read book School Based Assessment in English written by Clavia T. Williams-mcbean and published by . This book was released on 2017-09 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This workbook was designed based on the guidelines outlined in the amended CXC CSEC English syllabus effective for the May - June 2018 examinations. It was developed in response to requests of teachers and students to have resources, validated by CXC, to assist them in completing the SBA. The activities in this Workbook will allow the teachers to more efficiently and effectively integrate the SBA in every day classroom activities. At the end of each group meeting, there is a Group Meeting Participation Form for students to complete. This form allows the teacher to monitor what happens outside the classroom as well. It also allows the students to have evidence to support their declarations in discussing their individual participation and group participation.The Workbook also incorporates activities which will help students to successfully complete the required tasks. The activities scaffold the thinking that will be required to complete the final tasks. The step by step approach makes the overall process easier. Finally, the Workbook contains sample SBAs. One is used as a working example to show how each task is supposed to be completed. The working sample also includes guidelines for completion. The other sample at the end of the Workbook was included to give students a clearer idea of how their final portfolio should be compiled. It was also included to show how students can work within the same theme/issue/topic/event and write the same written report but have different individual pieces. The SBA component provides a unique opportunity for students to improve their competence and achievement in English. It is my hope that School Based Assessment in English: A guide and workbook for students will make that opportunity more a reality.
