Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A must read for students standing at the edge of choosing their careers, and for others to look back and help the next generation." Dr. Vijay Patel, Technology Director, Flight control laws LCA, IFCS, ADA Bangalore. "An excellent collection of personal experiences and a narrative interspersed with real advice, opinions and actionable insights that can guide generations. A must read." Rajat Jain, business mentor for early stage startups, ex MD, Xerox India and Walt Disney India. "This remarkable book works at many levels. At one, it is a lucidly explained guide that, with the lightest of touch, hand-holds and empowers students to prepare them for what lies beyond the classroom. At another, it is a veritable manual for our work and life. As technology reshapes both, the book offers invaluable insight into what each means and how we can better navigate the increasingly permeable walls between the two." Raj Kamal Jha, engineer, journalist, novelist, and Chief Editor of The Indian Express. Blurb: Many career advice books are written by senior managers and entrepreneurs for senior managers and entrepreneurs. Other career advice books are written by people whose career consists of giving career advice. This book is written for young engineers by an engineering professor who is currently engaged in teaching and research. The book emphasizes a long-term view. Engineering is not learned in four years. If you are alert, and keep learning and integrating ideas along the way, then you slowly build up a type of understanding that newcomers cannot match. This helps you build a sustainable career. Do not be distracted by the apparent success of a few people who seem to take shortcuts. For most people, statistics will apply. For most people, and therefore probably for you as well, success will be more likely if you develop long term value.

Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable BookAn ALA Notable Book "Original and illuminating." --The Washington Post What draws our species to war? What makes us see violence as a kind of sacred duty, or a ritual that boys must undergo to "become" men? Newly reissued in paperback, Blood Rites takes readers on an original journey from the elaborate human sacrifices of the ancient world to the carnage and holocaust of twentieth-century "total war." Ehrenreich sifts deftly through the fragile records of prehistory and discovers the wellspring of war in an unexpected place -- not in a "killer instinct" unique to the males of our species, but in the blood rites early humans performed to reenact their terrifying experiences of predation by stronger carnivores. Brilliant in conception and rich in scope, Blood Rites is a monumental work that continues to transform our understanding of the greatest single threat to human life.

Concluding with thoughts about administrator accountability, the various chapters offer contemporary views on the preparation, utilization, and retention of school administrators throughout the life cycle. The chapters provide needed insight into what should and must be done to grow the best leaders for US schools.

Download or read book A Life Untold written by Dr. Lamar D. Lee Jr. and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The compelling reality of the dwindling horizon line before me only serves to remind me of the blessed road traveled from behind. When I think of those seemingly unrelated, though reoccurring, reminders of God's providential movement in my life, I'm deeply broken by God's long-suffering and His steadfast love toward me. From the worn linoleum floor coverings beneath that dimly-lit kitchen table in the front room to the marvelously clad halls of Pasvar Pavilion at the University of Pittsburgh, I can look back and see the footprints of the Nazarene as He's carried me now for more than seventy-two years. He has secured me in the midst of life's challenges, cradling me in the stability of a loving, Christ-centered family, establishing me in the communal confines of a time when the whole village was, in fact, raising children, and calling me as a neophyte in ordained ministry while having stabilized my marriage and family to survive its rigors.
