Download or read book The Daily Perils of Executive Life written by Manfred F. R. Kets de Vries and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2022-02-06 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a period of enforced solitude during the Covid-19 pandemic, Manfred Kets de Vries became introspective, reflective, and considered how executives could emerge from unprecedented global events. The result is a collection of 23 thought-provoking and focused chapters to help executives take stock and re-evaluate their path during a time of uncertainty. Beginning with essays on ‘Managing Self,’ Kets de Vries starts with people’s search for meaning and how we can deal with this important question. Given our need for meaning, the question of human energy is discussed. What gives executives energy? What makes them feel alive? How best to use this energy? Several essays in this section deal with the effects of the pandemic on people’s perception and management of time. The second section focuses on leadership and highlights several executive types you’ve probably encountered at work and struggle to deal with; complainers, belligerent people, and borderlines, will be part of this parade. Also touching upon mental health issues and how organizations should deal with this, this section gives a deep insight into the leadership issues that we now face in what might be termed ‘the new normal.’ Finally, Kets de Vries places societal issues under the microscope. Tackling a multitude of interrelated topics, he explores the challenges of bringing in democratic processes into organizational settings, as well as the perils of loneliness and the issues faced by women in organization – and how society can better deal with it. Littered with Manfred Kets de Vries’ trademark wit and psychological insight into the pressing issues of today, these essays can be read independently or as part of a guided tour around the daily perils of executive life.
Download or read book Corner Office Rules written by Keith R. Wyche and published by . This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corner Office Rules is essential reading for anyone who thinks they've got what it takes to rise to the top of the corporate ladder. Through an engaging series of real life stories told by today's top professionals, readers will learn the tools they need to work their way from middle level management to that always envied executive leadership position. Welcome to the world of senior leadership! As you negotiate the often treacherous territory of corporate responsibility, Corner Office Rules provides the guidance you need to become the kind of leader you expect. First and foremost, you will learn that allowing unrealistic expectations to dictate your agenda will quickly result in never pleasing anyone, solving anything, or delivering any results. To perform effectively as a senior leader, you must accept the reality that you'll never have all the answers! Leadership roles come with all sorts of titles: CEO, CFO, president, executive vice president, senior vice president or partner. Or perhaps you strive to be executive director, principal, pastor, dean, captain, coach, business owner, or chairman. Or why not mayor, governor, or senator? Whatever the title in front of your name, it all means the same thing-you are now in charge. The realities of such responsibility are laid bare in the pages of Corner Office Rules along with the necessary tools to handle the enormous expectations that come both from others...and from yourself. While other self-help business books get bogged down with lofty business "philosophies" that don't amount to much in the real word, Corner Office Rules empowers readers to take control of their own corporate fate. Learn what it's really like to have everyone looking at you for guidance, even as you face problems with no solutions, questions with no answers, and demands with no alternatives. With the failure or success of an entire organization resting on your shoulders, how do you juggle it all? Learn what it takes to become a leader in your field with the guidance of two of today's most prominent business leaders. Author Keith R. Wyche, former president and CEO of ACME Markets, has over thirty years of experience working with some of corporate America's most distinguished companies such as AT&T, IBM, and Pitney Bowes. Corner Office Rules is the long anticipated follow up to his 2008 guide, Good is Not Enough: And Other Unwritten Rules for Minority Professionals. Wyche has been named "CEO of the Year" in 2010 by the Executive 50 Organization and is an independent director on the board of WMS Industries. Co-author Renee B. Booth, PhD, is a nationally recognized leadership development, assessment, and motivation expert with more than twenty years of experience. She currently serves as consultant, coach, and advisor for executive levels of various organizations. In 1999, Dr. Booth founded Leadership Solutions, Inc., an organization that concentrates on issues such as talent assessment, executive coaching, team building, and the design of leadership development curricula. They have helped clients such as The Vanguard Group, Lincoln Financial Group, and Bayer reach their individual management goals. Together, these two visionaries have produced an insightful how-to book that will help lay the foundation for your successful career.

Download or read book Executive Function written by Sandra A. Wiebe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Executive Function: Development Across the Life Span presents perspectives from leading researchers and theorists on the development of executive function from infancy to late adulthood and the factors that shape its growth and decline. Executive function is the set of higher-order cognitive processes involved in regulating attention, thoughts, and actions. Relative to other cognitive domains, its development is slow and decline begins early in late adulthood. As such, it is particularly sensitive to variations in environments and experiences, and there is growing evidence that it is susceptible to intervention – important because of its link to a wide range of important life outcomes. The volume is made up of four sections. It begins with an overview of executive function’s typical development across the lifespan, providing a foundation for the remainder of the volume. The second section presents insights into mechanisms of executive function, as provided by a variety of methodological approaches. The third and fourth sections review the current research evidence on specific factors that shape executive function’s development, focusing on normative (e.g., bilingualism, physical activity, cognitive training) and clinically relevant (e.g., substance use, neurodegenerative disease) developmental pathways.
