Book excerpt: Having only been given a name for their unique nature a few decades ago, highly sensitive people, or HSPs, are finally able to identify their traits and connect with one another in new and beneficial ways. In her book, The Emerging Sensitive: A Guide For Finding Your Place In The World, Maria Hill illuminates the path to self-exploration and discovery for HSPs. The Emerging Sensitive paints a vivid picture of how the sensitive experience has created a unique life journey. It illuminates the history of sensitive people by tracing the roots of HSPs back to the earliest civilizations. Using the evolutional framework of Spiral Dynamics as laid out by Don Beck and Chris Cowan The Emerging Sensitive discusses the shifting roles of highly sensitive people in societies throughout the ages and explores what the future holds as culture shifts to a more HSP-friendly stage while including ideas for moving out into the world in a safe way. The book provides important mental supports through frameworks that HSPs need in order to navigate the world more easily. It has 4 parts and a large resources section. Part 1: Understanding The Highly Sensitive Trait: - How the biological difference of highly sensitive people results in a unique physically and emotional experience. - How the 'DOES' Model Of Highly Sensitive People created by Dr. Elaine Aron helps us understand the different ways of thinking and processing information for highly sensitive people. - How sensitivity makes a tangible difference in the world. - How the characteristics of sensitivity become a gift to ourselves and each other. Part 2: The Importance And Value Of Frameworks: - What frameworks are, why they are important and how they help us make sense of the world better. - How the evolution framework, Spiral Dynamics, based on the research of Dr. Clare Graves, provides insights for highly sensitive people, and a tool for processing information more easily. Part 3: Getting A Handle On The World: - Why the structures of the world cause HSPs feel out of sync and find it hard to thrive. - How the world is changing and why it provides fresh opportunities for highly sensitive people that will make life more fulfilling. - Which new fields and opportunities for highly sensitive people suit their natures. Part 4: Claiming Agency: - What is "agency" and why is it hard to claim agency as a highly sensitive person. - Which skills and tools highly sensitive people need to harness their sensitivity for positive results - How to make changes and put the information to work. Finally the book has a large resources section covering the HSP trait, frameworks, trends and opportunities, self help tools including health and stress relief. Hope is not enough. Sensitive people need tools frameworks and viable solutions to the challenges they face. With the guidance and resources contained within this book, HSPs can begin to discover and nurture their true potential.

Download or read book Systems Convening a Crucial Form of Leadership for the 21st Century written by Beverly Wenger-Trayner and published by Social Learning Lab. This book was released on 2021-08-27 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book shines a light on the important work that many people are doing around the world. You may not have heard about them; what they do is rarely in their job description. You may not even be aware of what they do; they tend to act as enablers rather than taking credit or seeking the spotlight. But they are here-working to make a difference in complex social landscapes. We call them systems conveners. Systems conveners enable learning across boundaries, connect people across silos, and convene them to work on what they see can be achieved if a broader range of views are brought to bear. In this, they have a vital role to play in helping us address the complex challenges of the 21st century. The book starts with portraits of systems conveners working in different contexts including doing community development in villages in Zambia, bringing together different groups in a U.S. town to do urban planning, tackling tribal conflict resolution in Nigeria, and undertaking systems transformation in the UK National Health Service. To provide a clear articulation of the role and practice of systems conveners, the book then describes seven aspects of the work they do, with quotes from practitioners to bring these descriptions to life. The book ends with a framework for understanding and guiding systems convening. For many people, being a systems convener is only something that exists in retrospect. This highly readable book does not require familiarity with systems theory or practice. It is for and about people who find themselves doing systems convening simply because it is essential to the difference they care to make. We hope that shining a light on this work will be useful for those who already do it, for those looking for a way in, and for those who are in a position to sponsor the work. If you are a systems convener, we hope you recognize yourself in these pages and see that you are not alone. We hope you gain some language to describe what you do and find some inspiration in the approaches, practices, and strategies of your peers.

This book was released on 2011-12-04 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly, physicians are leveraging their medical training and expertise to pursue careers in non-traditional arenas. Their goals are diverse: · Explore consulting as a way to improve patient care · Lay the foundation for a career in academic medicine · Provide leadership in healthcare · Strengthen ties between a clinic and the community · Broaden one’s experience as a medical student · As a journalist or writer, open a window onto medicine for non-experts Some physicians will pursue another degree, while others may not, in anticipation of moving into public service, business, education, law, or organized medicine. Their common ground is the desire to enhance their professional fulfillment. Drs. Urman and Ehrenfeld’s book features individual chapters on the wide array of non-traditional careers for physicians, each one written by an outstanding leader in medicine who him- or herself has successfully forged a unique career path. A final chapter brings together fascinating brief profiles – “case studies” – of physicians who have distinguished themselves professionally outside of traditional settings. Suitable for readers at any point in their medical career – practitioners, fellows, residents, and medical students – who want to explore possibilities beyond traditional medical practice, the book also sets out common-sense advice on topics such as work-life balance, mentorship, and the relationship between personality and job satisfaction.
