Book excerpt: Well known bishop and church leader Paul S. Morton Sr. draws on the Old Testament story of the Israelite’s exodus from Egypt and time honored spiritual principles and truths to explore how God’s power and presence can bring about much-needed spiritual change. First, spiritual change does not come easily and is often preceded by conflict, as well as strife as believers strive to recognize their own internal struggle. Morton argues that “ground zero” for any spiritual change first happens within. Second, spiritual change must happen at wider level. It requires the members of the community as a whole to shift their thinking, restructure the desires of their hearts, and restore their souls to the point of being one with God. Third, once the community experiences spiritual change, the gate is open for the final step—spiritual growth. This essential step not only results in enriched, progressive intimacy with God, but it also has a lingering effect that fosters and begins the cycle anew in others who desire that same intimacy. In essence, spiritual change eventually becomes a spiritual trait that gets handed down to future generations.

Book Face Forward  Move Forward

Download or read book Face Forward Move Forward written by Arlene Gale and published by Tag Publishing LLC. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your past does not have to define your future. If you're running from a monster, instead of looking over your shoulder, you'll cover more ground faster if you face forward in the direction you're moving. In Face Forward, Move Forward the monster represents anything from anger and pain to shame and worthlessness. I'm running, but toward what? How can I live a life 180-degrees different from what I've known, what I had beaten into me? This is a gut-wrenching and heart-warming story about reframing life to invoke positive outcomes. A Face Forward, Move Forward philosophy provides momentum to cultivate a life of happiness, peace and self-acceptance. The real heartbeat of the story is felt in the longing to live as more than a survivor, to take life on as a "thriver." Too many people are hurt by someone or something and merely survive day-to-day, going through the motions, missing hope, joy and love. They miss becoming thrivers. If you relate, this stimulating combination of autobiography and personal how-to is for you. About the Author Arlene earned a Marketing/Public Relations degree from Texas Christian University and a Masters in Marketing from the University of Texas at Arlington. Arlene is a nonfiction writer, editor and marketer. She is a public speaker for a variety of interest groups to spread the message of hope and success that is Face Forward, Move Forward. Arlene lives with her husband and two sons in North Texas.

Book excerpt: About the Book: The U.S. legal system was built to address predictable health and environmental injuries, but it can seize up when health or environmental crises combine legally confounding fact patterns with huge humanitarian and financial stakes. Because these crises present serious societal challenges that affect large slices of America, however, they must be addressed--and resolved--in an open, fair, and equitable fashion. Looking Back to Move Forward: Resolving Health & Environmental Crises, released by the State Energy & Environmental Impact Center at the New York University School of Law, describes the tools that advocates, judges, legislators, and policymakers have applied to address and resolve--with varying levels of success--seven major health and environmental crises of our time. From Diethylstilbestrol to Dieselgate, the seven crises provide a rich source of insights that should inform and guide how the legal system responds to future health and environmental crises--including crises that already are on our doorstep, such as the opioid and climate crises. About the State Energy & Environmental Impact Center: The non-partisan State Energy & Environmental Impact Center supports state attorneys general in defending and promoting clean energy, climate, and environmental laws and policies. About the Editor: Hampden T. Macbeth is a Staff Attorney with the State Energy & Environmental Impact Center, New York University School of Law

Book City Forward

    Book Details:
  • Author : Matt Enstice
  • Publisher : Island Press
  • Release : 2022-07-07
  • ISBN : 1642831778
  • Pages : 260 pages

Download or read book City Forward written by Matt Enstice and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2022-07-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation districts and anchor institutions—like hospitals, universities, and technology hubs—are celebrated for their ability to drive economic growth and employment opportunities. But the benefits often fail to reach the very neighborhoods they are built in. As CEO of the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, Matt Enstice took a different approach. Under Matt’s leadership, BNMC has supported entrepreneurship training programs and mentorship for community members, creation of a community garden, bringing together diverse groups to explore transportation solutions, and more. Fostering participation and collaboration among neighborhood leaders, foundations, and other organizations ensures that the interests of Buffalo residents are represented. Together, these groups are creating a new model for re-energizing Buffalo—a model that has applications across the United States and around the world. City Forward explains how BNMC works to promote a shared goal of equity among companies and institutions with often opposing motivations and intentions. When money or time is scarce, how can equitable community building remain a common priority? When interests conflict, and an institution’s expansion depends upon parking or development that would infringe upon public space, how can the decision-making process maintain trust and collaboration? Offering a candid look at BNMC’s setbacks and successes, along with efforts from other institutions nationwide, Enstice shares twelve strategies that innovation districts can harness to weave equity into their core work. From actively creating opportunities to listen to the community, to navigating compromise, to recruiting new partners, the book reveals unique opportunities available to create decisive, large-scale change. Critically, Enstice also offers insight about how innovation districts can speak about equity in an inclusive manner and keep underrepresented and historically excluded voices at the decision-making table. Accessible, engaging, and packed with fresh ideas applicable to any city, this book is an invaluable resource. Institutional leadership, business owners, and professionals hoping to make equitable change within their companies and organizations will find experienced direction here. City Forward is a refreshing look at the brighter, more equitable futures that we can create through thoughtful and strategic collaboration—moving forward, together.

Book Recalculating

Download or read book Recalculating written by Lindsey Pollak and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leading workplace expert provides an inspirational, practical, and forward-looking career playbook for recent grads, career changers, and transitioning professionals looking to thrive in today’s rapidly evolving workplace. Covid-19 has heightened career uncertainty in a work landscape dominated by turbulence and change, and it is directly impacting how people are entering—or re-entering—the workplace. But as Lindsey Pollak makes clear, the pandemic merely accelerated career and hiring trends that have been building. Changes that were once slowly spreading have been rapidly implemented across all industries. This means that the old job hunting and career success rules no longer apply. Job seekers of all generations and skill sets must learn how to thrive in this “new normal,” which will include a hybrid of remote and in-person experiences, increased reliance on virtual communication and automation, constant disruption, and renewed employer emphasis on workers’ health and well-being. While this new world is complicated and constantly evolving, you won’t have to navigate it alone. For twenty years, Pollak has been following the trends and successfully advising young professionals and organizations on workplace success. Now, she guides you through the changes currently happening—and those to come. Combining insights from both experts and professionals across generations, she provides encouraging, strategic, and actionable advice on making lifelong decisions about education; building a resilient personal brand; using virtual communication to remotely interview, network, and work; skilling and reskilling for the future; and maintaining self-care and mental health. Like your personal GPS, Pollak equips you to handle workplace obstacles, helping you see them as challenges to navigate rather than impossible roadblocks. There is no perfect path to a dream career, but with Recalculating you’ll be prepared with the necessary skills and tools to succeed.

  • Author : Julian Birkinshaw
  • Publisher : Stanford University Press
  • Release : 2017-04-04
  • ISBN : 1503602311
  • Pages : 320 pages

Download or read book Fast Forward written by Julian Birkinshaw and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to the adhocracy form of business management and how it can foster a company’s success. The leading companies of the past twenty years have all harnessed the power of information to gain competitive advantage. But as access to big data becomes ubiquitous, it can no longer guarantee a leg up. Fast/Forward makes the case that we are entering a new era in which firms that understand the limits of 1s and 0s will take the lead. Whereas the industrial age saw the rise of bureaucracy, and the information age has been described as a meritocracy, we are witnessing the rise of adhocracy. In uncertain, rapidly-changing times, adhocracic organizations scan the horizon for winning opportunities. Then, instead of questing after more analysis, they respond with agility by making smart, intuitive decisions. Combining decisive action with emotional conviction, future-facing firms seize the day. Fast/Forward paints the big picture of a new approach to strategy and provides the necessary playbook to make your company fit for the future. Praise for Fast/Forward “Fast/Forward makes a compelling case for spontaneity, speed, and a willingness to lead with intuition. More importantly, it speaks to the leadership qualities required to implement its suggestions—providing practical ways to cultivate to those qualities.” —Jeffrey Pfeffer, Stanford University, author of Power: Why Some People Have It—and Others Don’t “[Birkinshaw and Ridderstråle] are on the right track: In an ever-faster, globalized world, companies not only need a compelling strategy, but also an adaptive and caring performance culture. To unleash their full ingenuity, we have to empower our colleagues to act like owners.” —Joe Kaeser, President and CEO, Siemens AG “Big data is oversold as the most important facet of competitive advantage. Rather, breakthrough leaps of faith are necessary to achieve extraordinary results. Fast-Forward is full of practical advice about how to capitalize on this simple idea in order to forge your corporate future.” —Anita McGahan, Rotman School of Management, author of How Industries Evolve

Book excerpt: Nature has taught me more about life than I ever thought possible. I found that how we deal with the mountains we climb is how we deal with life itself. We face our fears, adjust our mindset, and keep putting one foot in front of the other. One of the most important lessons I learned is that we all climb mountains. Every. Single. Day. I thought I was just hiking mountains. What I was really doing was learning valuable lessons that I could equate directly to life. Hiking thousands of miles over perhaps hundreds of mountains all over the United States teaches you a lot. With that said, you don't have to be a hiker to enjoy any of these revelations. I'll frame each lesson with a hiking story from the past, but the takeaways are just as important to anyone as they would be to a hiker. In other words, these are not hiker exclusive lessons. These 9 are the most powerful that I've taken from the hikes, the trials, the tribulations, the celebrations, the failures, and the accomplishments. - Do it scared. - The Destination is the journey. - Be grateful and be mindful. - Your attitude determines your altitude. - Find your tribe. - Hike your own hike. - Expect the best. Plan for the worst. - Life is filled with sacrifices. - Keep moving forward. It wasn't until a few years ago that I started to assemble and sort through many of the lessons I had learned. Most we just take for granted. It isn't until we contemplate what we've learned that we can digest and assemble it properly. To climb a mountain is to learn about life. It's all about continually moving forward.

Book Moving Forward

Book excerpt: “Moving Forward arrives at a moment when inspiration, insight, and optimism are in short supply. Karine Jean-Pierre delivers all three in abundance.” —Stacey Abrams, author of Lead from the Outside “Karine Jean-Pierre illuminates her path to insider status so others can follow in her footsteps.”—Essence “Jean-Pierre inspires us to get involved in politics—every single one of us, no matter where we are from or who we are.”—The Atlantic Most political origin stories have the same backbone. A bright young person starts reading the Washington Post in elementary school. She skips school to see a presidential candidate. In middle school she canvasses door-to-door. The story can be intimidating. It reinforces the feeling that politics is a closed system: if you weren’t participating in debate club, the Young Democrats and Model UN you have no chance. Karine Jean-Pierre’s story breaks the mold. In Moving Forward, she tells how she got involved, showing how politics can be accessible to anyone, no matter their background. In today’s political climate, the need for all of us to participate has never been more crucial. This book is her call to arms for those who know that now is the time for us to act.
