Download or read book Mother Teresa CEO written by Ruma Bose and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2011-07-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When most people think of Mother Teresa, they think of a saint—a spiritual hero of extraordinary humanitarian accomplishments, a Nobel Peace Prize winner. But Mother Teresa was also the leader of one of the world’s largest and most successful organizations: the Missionaries of Charity. Since founding it in 1948 she has raised millions of dollars and, with over a million volunteers in more than 100 countries, it remains one of the most recognized brands in the world. How did one nun who never received any formal education in business build such an impressive global organization? Frank, realistic, and firmly grounded in practicality, Mother Teresa’s leadership style helped to inspire and organize people across the world. This book shares ten essential leadership principles drawn from Mother Teresa’s example and applies them to today’s business world. Authors Ruma Bose, an entrepreneur who volun- teered with Mother Teresa, and Lou Faust, a leading business expert, are the first to examine her in this light—as a leader whose management style and dedication to a singular vision led to one of the world’s most unlikely success stories. Mother Teresa may have been a saint, but her spectacular success was not a product of divine providence. Her genius was the simplicity of her vision and her dedication to its implementation. It was in the way she treated her people, refusing to distance herself from the everyday work of a typical sister of the Missionaries of Charity. It was in how she handled tough choices—like accepting donations from brutal Haitian dictator François “Papa Doc” Duvalier. These were the principles that made her the great leader of a global organization, and they can be applied by anyone in any organization—no sainthood required.

Download or read book Moms Are the Ceo s of Life written by Eugene Quinn and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So many books are coming out today about different ways of running companies. Several of these books envision some historical figure as the CEO: Lincoln, Attila the Hun, Jesus and others. Only one person is CEO to everyone, and that is our mother. Everyone is molded by the teaching of their mother, and taught the same things that they later apply to their business career. I had the pleasure of interviewing many successful people for the book, Don Kirshner, Ken Anderson and Jeff Webb, just to name a few, and found that they all had a lot in common: first they have a passion for what they do; have a purpose to succeed; moved ahead with total determination; but first and foremost they owe their success to the role their mother played in shaping their respective lives. Each chapter of the book is a lesson my mother taught me while I was growing up. They are the same ones all children hear from their own mother. The first part of each chapter tells the story of how I learned one of my own mother's lessons. Most people who read them will see themselves, since all children go through many of the same trials and tribulations. The second part of each chapter relates to a specific individual who used their mother's lessons to be successful in their chosen field. Some are funny, some are sad; but all are about life...and all true. Having interviewed each of these people for the book, I wish I could show the raw emotion on each person's face while relating what their mother meant to their individual success. I hope everyone takes away from this book that success is not easy, but everyone receives the seeds for their success from their mother.

Book excerpt: An Honest and Revolutionary Guide to the Emotions Moms Feel But Seldom Talk About A few years ago, Dr. Claire Nicogossian began noticing a trend in her therapy room: Mothers are struggling with the challenging and unexpected emotions that surface during their journey through motherhood.
