Download or read book Rule Breaker written by Jackie Fast and published by Kogan Page Publishers. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the winners of today can be dethroned by a surprise new entrant tomorrow, how do you ensure you stay on top? The world has changed, and the leaders of the future are those who embrace disruption and make their own rules. Rule Breaker is a manifesto for a new wave of leadership. One that operates in flatter workplaces where command and control doesn't work, and where people are entrusted with powerful purpose that grows businesses and communities. Award-winning entrepreneur, Jackie Fast, details how we have got here and why a whole new generation of workers is moving away from traditional models of work. Rule Breaker shows you how businesses like Kylie Cosmetics, M.92 and Beats can tap into a purposeful and engaged community of talent, harnessing true diversity and collaboration. To remain a highly successful leader in a future of radical change, you need to do more than fly the flag at the top of the podium supported by those beneath you. You must join the frontline and pave the way. Throw away the rule book, encourage rebelliousness, ask questions and lead by example.
Download or read book Environmental Compatible Circuit Breaker Technologies written by Dirk Uhrlandt and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent research and development in the field of high-current circuit breaker technology are devoted to meeting two challenges: the environmental compatibility and new demands on electrical grids caused by the increasing use of renewable energies. Electric arcs in gases or a vacuum are the key component in the technology at present and will play a key role also in future concepts, e.g., for hybrid and fast switching required for high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) transmission systems. In addition, the replacement of the environmentally harmful SF6 in gas breakers and gas-insulated switchgear is an actual issue. This Special Issue comprises eight peer-reviewed papers, which address recent studies of switching arcs and electrical insulation at high and medium voltage. Three papers consider issues of the replacement of the environmentally harmful SF6 by CO2 in high-voltage gas circuit breakers. One paper deals with fast switching in air with relevance for hybrid fault current limiters and hybrid HVDC interrupters. The other four papers illustrate actual research on vacuum current breakers as an additional option for environmentally compatible switchgear; fundamental studies of the vacuum arc ignition, as well as concepts for the use of vacuum arcs for DC interruption.
