Book excerpt: A timeless connection exists between Native American wisdom, leadership development, and business survival. Chiefs were emotionally intelligent leaders. The secret of their success was that they acted as bestowers, companions, and guides. Bestowers are benefactors who give freely to others without asking for something in return. The bestower practices the attributes of compassion, kindness, patience, respect, sacrifice and sharing. Companions know you for who you are, overlooking your flaws while celebrating your strengths. The companions attributes include appreciation, cheerfulness, dialogue, honesty, humility, and loyalty. Guides are catalysts of change. They are the doers and the visionaries who instill entire organizations with a sense of purpose. The guides attributes are courage, determination, experience, justice, knowledge, leadership, and vision. Honored Feathers of Wisdom provides practical leadership lessons from the Native American past. Those who practice the functions of the chief, and the attributes of wisdom, are destined to become legendary leaders

This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An inspiring message for all ages: Find your inner bird. If you’re looking for wisdom and joy in your life, go straight to Sesame Street and heed the words of its most beloved and profound resident, Caroll Spinney, who has spent the past thirty-four years in a bird costume (and a trash can) as Big Bird and Oscar the Grouch. Three decades inside a giant puppet have taught Spinney a valuable and surprising lesson: Being a bird can make you a better person. In The Wisdom of Big Bird, the living legend of Sesame Street describes how we can all find our inner bird (or grouch). Each chapter illustrates a piece of useful wisdom Spinney has gleaned from a career in feathers. The lessons Big Bird teaches children every day on Sesame Street are the same ones that have brought Spinney success and satisfaction in his own life. Warm, witty, and affirming, Caroll Spinney’s memoir proves that being a bird can make you a better and happier person. “Every day on Sesame Street, we strive to give our innocent young audience the basis of a lifelong education. It is no accident that spending the past thirty-four years in the Bird suit teaching these lessons to others has taught me a few things, too.”—from The Wisdom of Big Bird (and the Dark Genius of Oscar the Grouch)

Download or read book The Feather of Ma at written by MJ Mauborgne and published by BookCountry. This book was released on 2014-09-29 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This two-parts historical novel retells the life story of Berenike, daughter of Ptolemy II, from her golden youth as a princess in Alexandria to her tragic fate as queen of Syria. Third century BC Alexandria is the first truly cosmopolitan city. In the aftermath of Alexander’s conquests, the dominant Greek civilization tunes up with Egypt’s older culture. The innovative establishment of the cult of Serapis embodies the will of the Ptolemies to unite their kingdom. The Great Library and Museum attracts the world’s intelligentsia, from the far reaches of India to the confines of Celtic Europe. The Egyptian natives live in a slum in the eastern part of the city, in what was the ancient fishermen settlement of Rakhotis; on the western part of town, a vibrant Jewish community prospered and accounted for a third of the population of Alexandria. The story begins when King Ptolemy’s sister, Arsinoë, returns from exile to her native city of Alexandria. The ambitious and manipulative woman will stop at nothing to regain power and authority. She intrigues to eliminate the king’s wife and eventually will marry her own brother according to the Egyptian custom. Meanwhile, the central character, Yona Dharmaraksita, ambassador of the Empire of Maurya, is sent on a diplomatic mission to Alexandria. Upon his arrival, he will cross path with Arsinoë on the day Ptolemy’s youngest son is murdered in mysterious circumstances. Yona is caught in the middle of the intrigue. More murders are committed, and it is only on the last page of the book that the mystery will be unraveled. It is also a story of coming of age complicated by familial and political intrigues. In part two, we follow the destitute queen in her exile and discover the provincial life of Southern Egypt. Far removed from the Greek overlords, life goes on as it has for millennia, with its strange mysticism and stranger characters.
