Download or read book Brilliance Beyond Borders written by Chinwe Esimai and published by Harper Horizon. This book was released on 2022-03-15 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the traditional narrative about immigrant women--that those who come to the United States will succeed as long as they work hard, stay focused, and have supportive families--is a lie? Of the 73 million women in the US workforce, 11.5 million are foreign-born. The truth is--even in the midst of headlines and political debates about immigration reform and in the wake of MeToo and other female-centric movements--millions of immigrants, especially women, aren’t living their fullest potential. Based on her personal experience and the stories of trailblazing women from around the world and in diverse industries, author Chinwe Esimai shares five indispensable traits that make an ocean of difference between immigrants who live as mere shadows of their truest potential and those who find purpose and fulfillment--what Chinwe refers to as their immigrace: Saying yes to your immigrace, an immigrant woman’s expression of her highest purpose and potential Daring to play in the big leagues Transforming failure Embracing change and blending differences Finding joy and healing These five traits are the foundation of the Brilliance Blueprint, a step-by-step guide to help readers achieve to their own extraordinary results and build their own remarkable legacies.

Download or read book Coherence written by Alan Watkins and published by Kogan Page Publishers. This book was released on 2013-11-03 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every business leader faces innumerable challenges every working day, each one taking their toll on precious energy levels and the ability to respond and react positively in a commercial environment. Coherence recognizes the key factors that take their toll on a leader's effectiveness and ability to lead, and provides the reader with unique solutions designed to improve physiological factors that impact on core competencies. Problems today cannot be solved with yesterday's level of thinking. CEOs fail and leaders burn out because our thinking has not sped up or powered up. The author not only recognizes that leaders have the potential for limitless processing power, but shows them how to access it, taking them back to fundamentals and, quite literally, to the heart of who we are and how we function successfully. By showing leaders how to be 'younger, smarter, healthier and happier' Coherence gives every decision maker the power to make influential decisions under pressure and achieve sustainable success at every level.

Download or read book Releasing Leadership Brilliance written by Simon T. Bailey and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The content will be organized around the metaphor of the four forces of flight-weight, lift, thrust, and drag-that will help leaders overcome the "sound barriers" of educational inertia. • Weight is the force of gravity toward the center of the earth. We'll use this to talk about unleashing Personal Brilliance through self-discovery: Who am I as a leader? What do I believe in? • Lift is the force that acts at a right angle to the direction of motion. We'll use this to talk about expanding Leadership Brilliance through collaboration with stakeholders: How can we become more than 1 + 1 = 2? • Thrust is the force that propels a flying machine in the direction of motion. Engines produce the thrust. We'll use this to talk about leaders becoming the engine for Team Brilliance by encouraging smart risks and designing potent changes: What works? • Momentum is the force or speed of movement. We'll use this to talk about tapping into Student Brilliance by unleashing grit, resilience, and hope: What is limiting us? So what? Now what? We want to not only make the case for change, but also provide many tools and techniques for every leader to break their sound barriers-whatever they are. We want to present relevant ideas that leaders can implement in their schools, districts, cities, and states. To do this, we will be using a storytelling format. Each section will tell one or more powerful stories/case studies, explain concepts in an easy-to-understand way, offer implementation tools and techniques, and call the reader to specific action in order to make progress. Each section of the book will contribute to a system or learning curriculum for the reader. If they follow the system and do the work, they will begin to move their schools in the direction of the promise of education: tapping into student curiosity, engaging students in school work they love, and reaping benefits from the experience. A. Research base The core of our research about what works will be the large database of successful transformation models described in the Breakthrough Project sponsored by NASSP. In addition, we will use success stories and data from school districts that Simon and Marceta have visited in their speaking and keynote addresses across the country. The keystones of the Breaking Ranks® research that are highlighted in this book fall into three core areas: • Collaborative leadership, including professional learning communities and strategic use of data; • Personalization of the school environment so that every student feels connected to her or her learning; and • Curriculum, instruction, and assessment that are aligned with state and local standards.
