Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to fill a gap in knowledge that exists and to better equip future generations of mental health professional leaders. During the last fifteen years of leading CCFAM, then CCFAM Training, and now Play Therapy Training Resources, I learned to intentionally lead and followed the next step of claiming a culture for the foundation of the businesses and the employees within them. How did this happen? Leading intentionally and claiming a culture required me to be an active participant and leader in these organizations. This book invites you, as the reader, to come along on some of my recreational adventures-running, skiing, and water sports, to name a few-for what I hope will be relatable stories and lessons. Both being a leader and participating in physical recreation demand you to be active in each moment, and I draw wisdom from the parallels of those experiences. As I share memories and takeaways from my journey to intentional leadership and claiming a culture, I will focus on four primary areas: 1) making a positive impact, 2) considering the vision for the culture, 3) normalizing the struggles and mistakes that occur within organizations (as you learn from mistakes I made), and 4) encouraging you to continue your own adventure story, as it unfolds in the years ahead.

Download or read book Doghiker written by Alan Via and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2020-03-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive guidebook for dog owners that includes seventy-seven great hikes from the Adirondacks through the Catskills. Much more than a guidebook showing readers great places to hike with their canine companions in upstate New York, Doghiker is a dog owner’s operating manual and tool kit. A lifelong dog owner, Alan Via makes a strong case for responsible ownership and offers guidance on selecting a canine hiking companion, training, safety, appropriate gear, canine first aid, and keeping your dog fit and healthy. Covering the Adirondacks through the Catskills, and areas in between, this unique guidebook includes seventy-seven beautiful hikes that are great for dogs. Each hike has a custom topographic map showing parking areas, trails, viewpoints, water sources, and other points of interest. Included are a peak-finder map and chart showing every hike and a summary of rating categories, as well as information on total mileage, elevation gain, ratings for views, difficulty level, dog safety and hazards, hiker traffic, trail conditions, and whether a leash is suggested or required. Detailed driving directions for each outing, including GPS coordinates for key intersections and trailheads, are also provided. By presenting all of this information, drawn from Via’s forty-plus years of hike leadership, readers can easily evaluate which hike fits their needs and get outside and explore the great outdoors with their four-legged friends.

Download or read book Again to Carthage written by John L. Parker and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-09-28 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Again to Carthage is the "breathtaking, pulse-quickening, stunning" sequel to Once a Runner that "will have you standing up and cheering, and pulling on your running shoes" (Chicago Sun-Times). Originally self-published in 1978, Once a Runner became a cult classic, emerging after three decades to become a New York Times bestseller. Now, in Again to Carthage, hero Quenton Cassidy returns. The former Olympian has become a successful attorney in south Florida, where his life centers on work, friends, skin diving, and boating trips to the Bahamas. But when he loses his best friend to the Vietnam War and two relatives to life’s vicissitudes, Cassidy realizes that an important part of his life was left unfinished. After reconnecting with his friend and former coach Bruce Denton, Cassidy returns to the world of competitive running in a desperate, all-out attempt to make one last Olympic team. Perfectly capturing the intensity, relentlessness, and occasional lunacy of a serious runner’s life, Again to Carthage is a must-read for runners—and athletes—of all ages, and a novel that will thrill any lover of fiction.

Download or read book The Innovation Mode written by George Krasadakis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-29 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents unique insights and advice on defining and managing the innovation transformation journey. Using novel ideas, examples and best practices, it empowers management executives at all levels to drive cultural, technological and organizational changes toward innovation. Covering modern innovation techniques, tools, programs and strategies, it focuses on the role of the latest technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence to discover, handle and manage ideas), methodologies (including Agile Engineering and Rapid Prototyping) and combinations of these (like hackathons or gamification). At the same time, it highlights the importance of culture and provides suggestions on how to build it. In the era of AI and the unprecedented pace of technology evolution, companies need to become truly innovative in order to survive. The transformation toward an innovation-led company is difficult – it requires a strong leadership and culture, advanced technologies and well-designed programs. The book is based on the author’s long-term experience and novel ideas, and reflects two decades of startup, consulting and corporate leadership experience. It is intended for business, technology, and innovation leaders.

Download or read book Pacesetter written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-07-15 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HM Revenue & Customs' PaceSetter Programme, aimed at streamlining business operations, has improved productivity through new ways of working and may have contributed to greater staff engagement. However, the National Audit Office has concluded that the Programme is not yet value for money because the extent to which efficiency has improved is not clear; and some key principles of process improvement are not yet being applied strategically across the entire organisation and embedded into the Department's core processes. PaceSetter, introduced five years ago, is designed to help HMRC change the way it works, to deliver more for less resource. The Department has pioneered the use of process improvement techniques in central government. Improvements include the redesign of claim forms and the standardisation of procedures across offices. The Department estimated that PaceSetter produced productivity improvements, with over £400 million of resource savings and £860 million of tax yield. It is not clear, however, if reported savings represent overall efficiency improvements, in part because of the limited evidence on overall trends in business performance. The PaceSetter Programme has had a small positive impact on staff engagement but overall it is still low. HMRC does not have a full understanding of the costs of PaceSetter. The Department decided to monitor only certain of the costs excluding the salary costs of its own PaceSetter experts. NAO analysis shows a more complete assessment of costs brings the total spent on PaceSetter from £55 million to at least £115 million between 2005-06 and 2010-11.To maximise the benefits of PaceSetter, the Department needs to use the Programme to help it streamline its business operations in a more strategic way.

Download or read book The Pacesetter written by Jerry M. Fisher and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SPORTS Carl G. Fisher was an early 20th-century entrepreneur whose energy and gift for promotion carried him through a number of very successful and historically noteworthy ventures: He created the famed Indianapolis Motor Speedway and its annual 500-mile race, and he was the motivating and organizing force behind the Lincoln Highway, the nation's first transcontinental road. Fisher seems best known as the primary developer of Miami Beach, then little more than a tropical swamp. He similarly began to develop Montauk, Long Island, before going bankrupt during the Great Depression. This portrait was written by a Fisher relative to offset a general lack of biographical information about him. (Fisher's first wife, Jane, wrote an earlier biography, Fabulous Hoosier.) Extensively researched, it gives significant detail about Fisher's projects, yet at times it reads too much like a mere gathering of facts. Nonetheless, Fisher's achievements deserve to be documented. Libraries in Indiana and South Florida ought to have this title, as should those with collections about American entrepreneurs. David B. Van De Streek, Pennsylvania State Univ. Libs., York-
