Download or read book Executive Presence written by Sylvia Ann Hewlett and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you “leadership material?” More importantly, do others perceive you to be? Sylvia Ann Hewlett, a noted expert on workplace power and influence, shows you how to identify and embody the Executive Presence (EP) that you need to succeed. You can have the experience and qualifications of a leader, but without executive presence, you won't advance. EP is an amalgam of qualities that true leaders exude, a presence that telegraphs you're in charge or deserve to be. Articulating those qualities isn't easy, however. Based on a nationwide survey of college graduates working across a range of sectors and occupations, Sylvia Hewlett and the Center for Talent Innovation discovered that EP is a dynamic, cohesive mix of appearance, communication, and gravitas. While these elements are not equal, to have true EP, you must know how to use all of them to your advantage. Filled with eye-opening insights, analysis, and practical advice for both men and women, mixed with illustrative examples from executives learning to use the EP, Executive Presence will help you make the leap from working like an executive to feeling like an executive.

Download or read book Educating the Student Body written by Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

Book excerpt: Presenting a More Effective Methodology for Hiring a "Value-Builder" In companies both large and small, having the best executive team makes a critical difference. Studies show that an effective senior management garners a firm as much as a 35% increase in its valuation, and the quality of executive leadership ranks 2nd in valuation criteria among investment analysts. If you are a CEO, senior executive, or HR professional seeking to hire a new key executive, you need a "Value-Builder" -- the true elite of top performers, beyond the "A players." It's All About the Fit!(R) will show you how to find and hire them. Based on over 15 years of experience as a successful retained recruiter, Lynton Edwards shares his unique CompleteFIT(R) executive search process. Step-by-step, he walks you through a systematic, robust, and holistic method to identify, recruit, and hire real Value-Builders. You will gain insight into every aspect of effective professional recruiting, including how to: - write a detailed position specification and match candidates to it - set the specific standards for the hard and soft competencies needed for value-building performance - interview candidates to identify their competencies and performance track record accurately - use scientifically-based assessment tools in the proper way - analyze to determine the holistic fit of a candidate to a position - select the right final candidate for the job and onboard for rapid results The CompleteFIT(R) process helps ensure a tight alignment between the requirements of a specific executive role and the technical competencies, personal qualities, cultural motivation, and ethical values of the selected candidate.
