Book excerpt: There's no doubting that the COVID-19 outbreak has changed the corporate landscape dramatically. In 2020, many businesses lost twenty to sixty percent of their revenue, and more than fourteen million Americans lost their employment, either temporarily or permanently. Every sector and facet of life has been affected by the pandemic. As we all rushed to adjust quickly, 2020 was a year of a drastic shift in strategies and policy. With ongoing concerns about health and safety, job security, disruptions in schooling, and financial constraints, it's clear that we can't overlook the emotional consequences. In the way we lead, real transformation is essential. We need to rethink how we lead and redefine what it means to be strong. COVID-19 has introduced a new template that we should use when hiring managers and leaders. Those with advanced "soft skills" will be the ones who lead our companies into the future.

Download or read book Education Reimagined written by Helen Crompton and published by International Society for Technology in Education. This book was released on 2022-08-29 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide provides district and school leaders an on-ramp for using the ISTE Standards to facilitate and implement change in their education systems. Education leaders play a central role in developing a culture of change and providing the conditions for innovation in schools, and that role varies by job title. District leaders make changes across multiple schools, principals lead change across their schools and teacher leaders guide change within and across grade levels. But no matter the role, a framework that identifies the knowledge and behaviors required for leaders to make student learning possible and for teachers to be empowered is a necessity. The ISTE Standards for Education Leaders offer a concrete framework to help leaders set goals and provide a vision for transformative systems change within educational institutions. The ISTE Standards for Educators and the ISTE Standards for Students are also used by leaders to provide holistic change with a shared vision and direction for all. Education Reimagined provides aspiring and established leaders an on-ramp for using the ISTE Standards to guide change in their educational systems. This booklet contains: • Examples showing how those in specific leadership roles can use the ISTE Standards in their work. • Reflection questions applicable to all leadership roles. • Vignettes demonstrating how a variety of leaders in a diverse range of schools have embraced the ISTE Standards for Education Leaders. • Explanation of other frameworks and standards that connect with and complement the ISTE Standards for Education Leaders. • A crosswalk between the ISTE Essential Conditions and the ISTE Standards for Education Leaders. Strong leaders use the ISTE Standards for Educators and the ISTE Standards for Students in tandem with the ISTE Standards for Education Leaders to bring about holistic change with a shared vision and direction for all. Each set of standards is relevant to the education leader and is addressed throughout this booklet.

The second unit puts various theoretical frameworks into practice, while highlighting the often-marginalized voices of the religiously minoritized. The book concludes with a call for researchers to begin exploring the new proposed horizons within the study of RSI in higher education and student affairs. This text is perfect for graduate level seminars in higher education and student affairs programs. It is also an invaluable resource for researchers and scholars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, executive Martin Fiore has been advising leaders from a wide range of industries about technological trends that are reshaping the world of business, from artificial intelligence and the rise of autonomous systems to human/machine convergence. Now, in Humanity Reimagined, Fiore explores how these trends are disrupting industries, changing the world of work, transforming the economy, and creating both threats and opportunities for leaders at all levels, from entrepreneurs nurturing start-up businesses to C-suite leaders at the world's biggest corporations. Fiore's main focus is on what we can do to ensure that the forces of change now sweeping the planet will protect and enhance the most cherished qualities of human life rather than undermining them. He offers thoughtful recommendations for addressing many of the big issues that today's transformational technologies are raising, from the threats to privacy posed by misuse of big data to the infiltration of autonomous systems by racial and gender bias.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two world-renowned strategists detail the seven leadership imperatives for transforming companies in the new digital era. Digital transformation is critical. But winning in today's world requires more than digitization. It requires understanding that the nature of competitive advantage has shifted—and that being digital is not enough. In Beyond Digital, Paul Leinwand and Matt Mani from Strategy&, PwC's global strategy consulting business, take readers inside twelve companies and how they have navigated through this monumental shift: from Philips's reinvention from a broad conglomerate to a focused health technology player, to Cleveland Clinic's engagement with its broader ecosystem to improve and expand its leading patient care to more locations around the world, to Microsoft's overhaul of its global commercial business to drive customer outcomes. Other case studies include Adobe, Citigroup, Eli Lilly, Hitachi, Honeywell, Inditex, Komatsu, STC Pay, and Titan. Building on a major new body of research, the authors identify the seven imperatives that leaders must follow as the digital age continues to evolve: Reimagine your company's place in the world Embrace and create value via ecosystems Build a system of privileged insights with your customers Make your organization outcome-oriented Invert the focus of your leadership team Reinvent the social contract with your people Disrupt your own leadership approach Together, these seven imperatives comprise a playbook for how leaders can define a bolder purpose and transform their organizations.

Book Safety Performance Reimagined

Download or read book Safety Performance Reimagined written by Rod Ritchie and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-25 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reimagines how safety performance is done. The two authors share case studies and stories from decades of experience working with companies globally to create sustainable safety performance in high-risk operations. It takes a practitioner's approach to translate academic theory into practical steps that can be used from the boardroom to the frontline. Safety is ultimately about people. Safety Performance Reimagined identifies the need for a sociotechnical approach and introduces the concept of 4-Dimensional Safety which successfully navigates the complex interplay between people, technology, systems, the structures, and the markets they operate in. How do leaders and the people conducting operations in complex environments create resilient, safe, and sustainable performance? The conventional approach fails to equip organizations to handle the complex interplay between people and technology in workplaces. Safety Differently, Safety-II, and HOP have all contributed to answering the "what's missing" question. They address the Why and the What of the New View of safety, but there is one more piece that needs more exploration--the How.This book provides proven practical solutions and outlines 'How' organizations can achieve sustainable safety performance.

Book Designing Sustainable Futures

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are in a decisive decade that demands more inspired and informed practitioners who can use positive futures to rebalance the present. The book you hold seeks to be a thought‐provoking approach to imagine, create, and lead the journey to a more sustainable world – where a spectrum of choices, including regenerative practices, await conscientious citizens, companies, and communities. With this objective, and to help reverse the megatrends of economic disparity, social injustice, and climate change, the Institute for the Future (IFTF) and the Design Department of the Politecnico di Milano came together to prototype an approach to prepare all practitioners who seek to leverage the future to infuse our present with more impact and agency. Guided by global experts and inspired by a growing network of future‐makers, the authors share essential insights from this emerging landscape, offering thought‐provoking theory, innovative experiments, real‐world experiences, and practitioner stories. We draw insight and inspiration from many contemporary theories and practices, including strategic foresight, experiential futures, speculative design, design fiction, systems design, participatory design, and transformative leadership, and an emerging entry with genAI‐augmented design. Regardless of whether you have a design or management background, or want to create a for‐profit or non‐profit, this book enables professionals across industries, as well as students preparing for a career in strategy, innovation, or transformation, the knowledge, skills, and confidence to strengthen resilience and guide the transition to the more sustainable practices of a better world.

I am already utilizing its techniques and finding immediate positive changes." -- Robert Roth, Director, Accounting and Reporting, Colgate Palmolive Company The title says it all: Carrots and Sticks Don't Work. Reward and recognition programs can be costly and inefficient, and they primarily reward employees who are already highly engaged and productive performers.
