Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community participation is acknowledged to be crucial to the success of regeneration partnerships, yet, there has been little research to date on the 'community leaders' directly involved in partnerships. Leadership styles, inter-sectoral relationships and the interaction between individuals involved in regeneration work are vital in shaping successful partnerships.Community leadership in area regeneration addresses the issues surrounding community leadership, describing, analysing and making recommendations about the ways in which significant people from local communities become involved in partnerships, how they exercise their 'leadership role' and how that role can be enhanced.The report highlights the importance of recognising diversity within communities and explores community leaders' own experiences of area regeneration programmes, looking at participation, capacity building, monitoring and evaluation. The report also argues that if government is to achieve its aim of tackling the problems of socially excluded neighbourhoods, a more bottom-up approach to regeneration partnerships is needed. Good practice recommendations are made, which highlight how best to:strengthen community leadership;support and empower community leaders in partnerships;enhance policy dialogue about community involvement.Community leadership in area regeneration is essential reading for policy makers and those communities involved in regeneration. It is relevant for national and local government, as well as anyone with an interest in area regeneration strategies and practice.
Download or read book Regenerative Leadership written by Giles Hutchins and published by eBook Partnership. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book by leadership and sustainability experts Giles Hutchins and Laura Storm provides an exciting and comprehensive framework for building regenerative life-affirming businesses. It offers a multitude of business cases, fascinating examples from nature's living systems, insights from the front-line pioneers and tools and techniques for leaders to succeed and thrive in the 21st century. Regenerative Leadership draws inspiration from pioneering thinking within biomimicry, circular economy, adult developmental psychology, anthropology, biophilia, sociology, complexity theory and next-stage leadership development. It connects the dots between these fields through a powerful framework that enables leadership to become regenerative: in harmony with life, building thriving, prosperous organizations amid transformational times. The book is a combination of theoretical frameworks, case studies, tools & practices: Everything the leader needs to be successful in the 21st century. Regenerative Leadership - what's it all about? While the future is uncertain, we clearly see an upward trend towards sustainable conscious business. And this is more than just a trend - we're witnessing a new kind of organization emerging. An organization which is able to rapidly sense and respond to the ever-changing business climate by innovating how and why it creates and delivers value, and the way it engages internally and externally with its ecosystem of employees, customers, suppliers, resources, investors, society and environment. This new kind of organization is the organization-as-living-system that is designed on the Logic of Life: life-affirming businesses that thrive from the inside out, by cultivating conditions conducive for life, internally and externally. These organizations nurture flourishing cultures while focusing on products and services that enhance society and the environment. Regenerative organizations will be tomorrow's success stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of regeneration activity have not halted the decline in prosperity and the social exclusion of sections of British society. Starting in 1996, the Joseph Rowntree Foundation took action to assess the nature of this activity, to discover what works and what does not, and to search out examples of good practice. Its Area Regeneration Programme covered every aspect of regeneration policy and practice from the national to the neighbourhood level, from labour market analysis to community development.Regeneration in the 21st century summarises the findings of the programme, which include over 60 research studies. It provides an overview of knowledge to date, and identifies the key challenges that we face in the 21st century. Analysed by specialists in each field, the report considers:the impact of geography and reputation on area disadvantage;why community involvement is vital, and how it can be implemented;the effect of joblessness on regeneration, and how it can be mitigated;why and how some partnerships succeed;the need for integration, including between top-down-bottom-up and national-local initiatives.·[vbTab][vbTab]Regeneration in the 21st century is vital reading for policy makers, regeneration partnerships - local, regional and national - and for anyone interested in the regeneration of Britain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social regeneration is about the transformative processes that, through institutional choices that embody cooperation and inclusion, develop opportunities and capabilities for weak categories, and transversally for society. The challenge of social regeneration can be addressed, in part, through organisational solutions increasingly identified with social economy organisations, since they are characterised by a social objective, cooperation and inclusive democratic governance. Besides the organisational element, Social Regeneration and Local Development provides a new perspective on interacting socio-economic factors, which can work in synergy with the social economy organisations model to promote and sustain social regeneration and well-being. Such elements include civic engagement and social capital, the nature of the welfare system, the use of physical assets in urban and rural areas, leadership, technology, and finance. By analysing organisational and contextual elements, this book offers an institutional perspective on how socio-economic systems can reply to challenges such as social and environmental degradation, financial crises, immigration, inequality, and marginalisation.

Download or read book Leading For Regeneration written by John Hardman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the regenerative leadership framework that has emerged from doctoral research and consulting work with successful sustainability leaders and their organizations in business, education, and community. The framework synthesizes the levels of awareness, the leadership styles and behaviours, and the organizational arrangements that correlate most significantly across these domains. Most importantly, the overwhelming majority of the leaders in this work agree that individual and collective consciousness development is critical to transforming the culture of organizations for sustainability and beyond. The term regenerative has not been chosen arbitrarily, but to provide an alternative to the notion of sustainability, which many of the leaders featured here indicate has become insufficient to describe what needs to be done, economically, socially, and environmentally, if we are to ensure a flourishing world for present and future generations. This work in turn has led to the development of the Regenerative Capacity Index (RCI), a tool designed to assess an organization’s readiness to engage in regenerative practice. From this evaluation of an organization’s regenerative capacity, it becomes possible to design a strategy for regeneration that considers all levels of its environmental, social, and economic impact, both internally and externally, in the local and global community. Among its major findings, the book argues that the more evolved sustainability leaders are becoming increasingly dissatisfied with the construct of sustainability, and indicate the need for a profound cultural shift towards regenerative human systems. In this framework, regenerative organizations are driven by a sense higher purpose, and leadership is exercised horizontally and collaboratively. Leaders and followers engage in generative conversations to create desirable futures which are then ‘backcasted’ to eliminate unanticipated consequences. Throughout, leaders emphasize the critical importance of engaging in personal and collective consciousness development or "inner work" in order to make regenerative practices possible.
