Download or read book The Leader in Me written by Stephen R. Covey and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-12-11 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students. The parents reported an incredible change in their children, who blossomed under the programme. By the end of the following year the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 94. This book will launch the message onto a much larger platform. Stephen R. Covey takes the 7 Habits, that have already changed the lives of millions of people, and shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits -- be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw -- are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well.

Book Student Association Leadership

Download or read book Student Association Leadership written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Student Association Leadership: Being the Report of the Lake Forest Summer School, 1911 This volume presents a report of the Seminar in Association methods conducted at the second Summer School of employed officers of the Student Young Men's Christian Association of North America, held at Lake Forest College, Lake Forest, Illinois, July 29 to August 27, 1911.There were in attendance 103 secretaries, including local. State and International, seven speakers and thirty-two guests, making a total of 142. The method of the Seminar was this: For each topic a commission of three men was appointed by the chair. Then a paper on the topic was read and discussed by those present. The commission summed up the discussion in the form of recommendations for alterations in certain parts of the presentation or additions thereto. In this book the papers are printed practically as read or as revised by the writer under the recommendation of the commission for that particular topic. In some cases it was found convenient to append the recommendations in the form of footnotes. These notes were added by the editorial committee. Five courses of study were offered at the Summer School this year, of which each student was permitted to select two. 1. Early Church History. Prof. O.E. Brown, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tenn. 2. The Ethics of Paul. Professor Brown. 3. Outlines of Metaphysics. Prof. James Elliott, Wesley College, Winnipeg, Man. 4. The Life of Christ. Rev. Gains Glenn Atkins, D.D., Providence, R.I. 5.Modem Religious Problems. Doctor Atkins. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book A Day in the Life of a College Student Leader

Download or read book A Day in the Life of a College Student Leader written by Sarah M. Marshall and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Sarah Marshall and Anne Hornak have done a magnificent job exploring diverse contexts in which college students expand their individual leadership capacity and learn and practice engaging in relational leadership with others. These cases are realistic because they were gathered from their interviews with real students engaging in leadership. From whatever perspective, students can learn that they are doing leadership when they work with others to address shared issues, solve shared problems, and work toward positive change.” - from the Foreword by Susan R. Komives This book presents over 230 case studies that reflect typical issues faced by undergraduate student leaders. The scenarios cover the range of functional areas of student life.These cases are intended for use by faculty and student affairs professionals as training tools for new student leaders who generally receive little preparation before assuming their positions. Cases provide an opportunity for students to roleplay and discuss scenarios before they encounter potentially similar events in their daily lives as leaders; engage students intensely in their learning, as they work through the issues and problems; and promote meaningful dialogue and discussion of relevant theory.The cases are based on real life dilemmas, and reflect both contemporary and historical campus issues. They are derived from interviews with 110 undergraduates and 11 student affairs administrators from large public research institutions, small privates, community colleges, and mid-sized comprehensive schools.The book begins with guidance on how to use case studies effectively, and on how to incorporate theory in analyzing them. The cases are then grouped into chapters, each of which focuses on a particular type of student organization. The cases vary in length to allow for multiple uses. Shorter cases can be role played and discussed in leadership training workshops, while longer cases can be used as take home assignments or debated during longer training sessions. The book concludes with general advice for student leaders. To assist with the facilitation process, the authors provide discussion questions to begin the analysis of each case. The cases are written broadly enough to allow for a variety of possible solutions.

Book Student Affairs Leadership

Download or read book Student Affairs Leadership written by Linda Kuk and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kuk and Banning offer readers a new lens for viewing leadership, one that goes beyond a focus on the behavior and values of leaders as individuals to examine how positional leaders interact with their environments to engage in leadership “in context”. This book is addressed to aspiring and senior student affairs officers and offers a new “ecological” framework that recognizes that today’s leaders are affected by factors they may not control, and work within an environment they cannot expect to mold solely through their execution of skills and strategies.Based on research supported through a grant from the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators (NASPA) Foundation, this book explores leadership as an interactive process within varied environmental contexts, and through an analysis of the transactional process between the leader, the organizational members and the various components of the organizations environment.It describes how leaders deploy differing competencies, skills and strategies in varied contexts, and how they choose to use past experiences, their training and personal characteristics to set priorities and navigate the cultural, social, physical, legal and political, resource, and ethical environments of their organizations.Several chapters conclude with an account of how the experiences of the SSAO participants in the research informed their practice of leadership and understanding of how leadership actually works.
