Book excerpt: Family business enterprises, found in virtually every country, are the backbone of most economies. However, the leadership challenges they present are complex and unique. Most executives and family members in these firms eventually discover that their education and years of hard work have not prepared them to address many of the interpersonal demands that come with the territory. After years of study and reflection, David Bentall came to realize how ill equipped he had been to be a part of the solution for his own family business. In his newest title, Dear Younger Me, he presents a highly personal exploration of nine key character traits that David realizes he was badly lacking as a young executive. Each of these traits are critically important for developing any leader, and for cultivating emotional intelligence and family relationships. Written in a handbook format, and useful for any business executive, it is especially aspiring for family enterprise executives, providing insight and inspiration on how to develop HUMILITY, CURIOSITY, LISTENING, EMPATHY, FORGIVENESS, GRATITUDE, CRITICAL THINKING, PATIENCE and CONTENTMENT. He artfully balances academic research with practical insights from many well-known family enterprise leaders exploring the role of these key virtues as found in the lives of such iconic leaders as Benjamin Franklin, Albert Einstein, Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, Kim Phuc, Walt Disney, John Wooden, and Helen Keller.
Download or read book Extraordinary Golf the Art of the Possible written by Fred Shoemaker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1997-04-01 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most golfers approach the tee with a complex mental package: worries and judgments about their swing, the other person's swing, the course, the weather, looking good, looking bad. They think about what's wrong instead of what's possible, and this is what Extraordinary Golf teaches: the art of the possible. Drawing on his experience teaching both amateurs and professionals for more than fifteen years, in his clinics around the country, in his Golf in the Kingdom seminars at the Esalen Institute, and at his own School for Extraordinary Golf in California, Shoemaker shows how extraordinary golf can be coached, learned, and practiced, with results not only in people's scores but in their sheer pleasure in the game. Combining a host of practical exercises with an entirely new point of view, he demonstrates how to focus not on the voices in your head but on the reality of golf: the club, the ball, your body, the course - the elements that actually make up your game. He shows how to approach shots creatively, instead of mechanically; how to read greens simply by staying awake; how to develop a powerful and consistent swing by rediscovering trust for your instincts; and how to improve yourself in competition by determining what you're competing for. He also gives simple guidelines on how to coach yourself, your spouse, and your children successfully.

Professor Riley did not have an answer for her eager students, but she did have love, experience, and the wisdom of her three best friends to offer. In her mind, she was like the modern-day Job from the Christian Bible. What would happen if God took away everything that you know and love to see if you would shake, bend, and break? Before she was a professor, she was a female who wanted to love one man and be loved by him forever. Love doesnt work that way, though.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bluebonnet flower grows in very poor soil. One would never guess this truth but the bright, proud bonnets tell no lies. Not even the unkempt soil can keep a Bluebonnet from producing its lovely blossoms. People can be similar to the bluebonnet flower. They are born into poor soil and have to live with the challenges presented to them. Kids from neglectful or abusive families are bluebonnet children. We are trained in children’s and family ministry that the parent is the primary faith nurturer. But what happens to a child who does not have a healthy parent to nourish them? Whether you serve in a school, nonprofit program, or the local church, this book will equip you with helpful tools and inspire you with hope-filled stories. While the tale of the bluebonnet child is heavy, in Christ there is hope. He is counting on you to shower them with the healing waters of His grace as they bloom through life.
Download or read book Pathetic and Poetic written by Ross Carter and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2024-03-28 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it okay to be pathetic and poetic? Pathetic & Poetic is an exclusive collection of fifty-five poems exploring what it means to be an adult. The collection tries blending the immature nature of still being young and trying hard to be cool with the harsh reality that it is maybe time to stop being pathetic and start to grow up. The poems pose some interesting and philosophical questions whilst still being utterly ridiculous. Each poem tells a thought-provoking story each blurring those two behaviours of still wanting to be silly and childlike but also acknowledging that being an adult comes with important consequences and responsibilities. Is it ok to still be a silly adult? Do we have to grow up? Some of the themes explored include mental health, childhood, curious questions, helpful advice, inspiring tales, quotes, silly songs, vivid memories, grumpy grumps, rants and raves, moans, dislikes, likes, odes, and dedications. Cover original artwork by Edith Harry.
