Download or read book Leadership and the Force of Love written by John R. Hoyle and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2001-11-06 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using real-world examples and an engaging approach to effective leadership, the author illustrates the key to success in any industry, whether the setting is the classroom or the boardroom. This book is a profound yet straightforward exploration of how leaders can inspire others to greatness through these six key actions: Visioning; Communicating; Teamworking; Empowering; Mentoring; Evaluating. Though educators are frequently faced with the challenges of politics, hostility, selfishness, and violence, he demonstrates that overcoming these obstacles requires teamwork, motivation, empowerment, and communication. While many have written about moral leadership, the notion of leading with love has been largely ignored. The author discusses the implications for love in leadership and affirms once and for all that if you can't love you can't lead.

Download or read book The New Why Teams Don t Work written by Harvey Robbins And Michael Finley and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2011-01-22 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the authors' bestselling book Why Teams Don't Work-winner of the Financial Times/Booz Allen & Hamilton Global Business Book Award as the Best Management Book of the Year in the Americas Teaches people how to be good team members and teaches team members how to be team leaders Includes seven completely new chapters as well as new and updated examples and information throughout The move to teams has largely failed, say Harvey Robbins and Michael Finley, mainly because teams themselves are failing to think through the human implications of teaming. The New Why Teams Don't Work is a handbook for team members and team leaders to maintain the highest possible level of team intelligence-the skills, attitudes, and emotional flexibility to get the most out of a team's inherent differences. Describing what teams are really like, not how they ought to be, the book teaches people how to work together to make decisions, stay in budget, and achieve team goals. Robbins and Finley show, for instance, how to get hidden agendas on the table, clarify individual roles, learn what team members expect and want from each other, choose the right decision-making process, and much more. Updated throughout, the book includes completely new material on team intelligence, team technology, collaboration vs. teamwork, team balance, teams at the top, the team of one, plus all new and updated examples.
Download or read book The Church As Learning Community written by Norma Cook Everist and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Norma Cook Everist contends that it is meaningful to say that in ministries of administration, outreach, and pastoral care, the church is functioning as a learning community. Whenever and wherever Christians are being formed into the image of Jesus Christ through ministry, there Christian education is taking place. Christian education is the name we give to that process of formation. Building on this central insight, Everist has written a major new introduction to the tasks and practices of Christian education. Part 1 of the book focuses broadly on what it means to be the church in the world. Part 2 shows how being a learning community requires ongoing growth in faith throughout the span of life. Part 3 shifts focus to the church as it moves into the community and world.

Download or read book Building Cross Cultural Competence written by Charles M. Hampden-Turner and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: divdivCross-cultural competence is a skill that has become increasingly essential for the managers in multinational companies. For other business people, this kind of competence may spell the difference between surviving and perishing in the new global economy. This book focuses on the dilemmas of these managers and offers constructive advice on dealing with culture shock and turning it to business advantage. Opposing values can be understood as complementary and reconcilable, say Charles Hampden-Turner and Fons Trompenaars. A manager who concentrates on integrating rather than polarizing values will make much better business decisions. Furthermore, the authors show, wealth is actually created by reconciling values-in-conflict. Based on fourteen years of research involving nearly 50,000 managerial respondents and on the authors’ extensive experience in international business, the book compares American cultural values to those of more than forty other nations. It explores six culture-defining dimensions and their reverse images (universalism-particularism, individualism-communitarianism, specificity-diffusion, achieved status–ascribed status, inner direction–outer direction, and sequential time–synchronous time) and discusses them as alternative ways of coping with life’s—and business’s—exigencies. With humor, cartoons, and an array of business examples, the authors demonstrate how the reconciliation of cultural differences can cause whole organizations to grow healthier, wealthier, and wiser. /DIV/DIV

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together articles by leading international scholars from diverse disciplinary perspectives who focus on the legal, social and cultural dimensions of intellectual properties - including patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and rights of publicity. These articles employ a creatively eclectic approach to the study of intellectual property law and policy viewed through the lenses of traditional doctrinal analysis, historical perspectives, critical cultural study, and empirical examinations of intellectual property in action. The volume also directs critical attention to the significance of intellectual property in contemporary processes of globalization and political economy.

Download or read book Raman Spectroscopy of Conformational Rearrangements at Low Temperatures written by Nils Olaf Bernd Lüttschwager and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-08-16 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis identifies the turning point in chain length, after which alkanes self-solvate into a folded structure instead of an extended stretched conformation. After this turning point, London dispersion forces rearrange isolated n-alkanes into a particular hairpin-structure, while for shorter chain lengths, a simple stretched conformation is energetically preferred. This thesis can locate the experimental turning point for the first time in an interaction-free manner from measurements of unbranched alkanes at low temperatures in supersonic jet expansions. It contains a detailed analysis of the vibrational Raman spectra of the chain molecules, which is supported by comprehensive quantum chemical simulations. In this way, the detailed balance between inter-chain attraction and conformational flexibility can be quantified. The investigations are complemented by measurements of perfluoroalkanes and similarities and differences between the compounds are discussed. Furthermore, Nils Lüttschwager determines the stiffnesses (elastic moduli) of two of the most common industrial polymers: polyethylene and polytetrafluorethylene. He uses in this thesis a sophisticated extrapolation to calculate this value from quantities of their building blocks, showing that the single polymer molecules can be as stiff as a rod of steel.
