Download or read book Influence Redefined written by Stacey Hanke and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you feel confident you're a leader with influence? You may be surprised to discover you're not as influential as you think you are. Your team is only as strong as your influence, and many leaders today are mistaken about what it means to be influential. An outdated influence paradigm, along with technological devices and distractions, is making it increasingly challenging for leaders to reach those they need to influence in order to be successful. In fact, many leaders are unwillingly and unknowingly sabotaging themselves and their influence. In her thought-provoking Influence Redefined, Stacey Hanke introduces her powerful Influence Model, a step-by-step method for improving communication and producing the ideal type of influence—one that moves people to action long after an interaction is over. She dispels the most common influence myths and instructs leaders on how to stop sabotaging themselves in order to leave a positive, lasting impression. Using a results-based definition of influence for individuals and organizations, Hanke successfully shows leaders how they can develop influence as a skill through self-awareness, consistency, a positive reputation, adaptability, and impact. With insights from dozens of executives and business leaders, as well as practical how-tos and action steps, Influence Redefined will help leaders multiply and expand their influence every day, Monday to Monday®. Through Stacey Hanke, Inc., the author has provided keynotes, mentoring and training on communicating with influence to thousands of leaders across industries. She is the author of Yes You Can! and has appeared in the New York Times and SmartMoney. Hanke was recognized as one of the National Speakers Association's ''Top 6 Under 40.''

Download or read book Truth written by Salman Akhtar and published by Karnac Books. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection gathers together erudite and considered contributions from Salman Akhtar, Cobi Avshalom, Brett Clarke, Mali Mann, Gila Ofer, Thomas Ogden, Louis Rothschild, Batya Shoshani, Michael Shoshani, Naama Shoshani-Breda, Ann Smolen, Donald Spence, Richard Waugaman, Thomas Wolman, and Vamik D. Volkan. Fifteen distinguished authors bring together their vast experience as psychologists, psychiatrists, psychoanalysts, social workers, and psychotherapists to present a nuanced and in-depth investigation into the concept of truth. Divided into five parts, the book begins with a thoughtful discussion from Brett Clarke on what truth means and its role in psychoanalysis. It then moves into the realm of development, looking at truth from the viewpoint of children, adolescents, and adults. Stepping from development to culture, the works of Shakespeare, Heidegger and Freud are brought into the debate alongside the relationship of truth with individual and large-group psychology. Next come four chapters taking 'truth' into the clinical realm, grounding theory in practice. The book is brought to completion by an epilogue from Louis Rothschild answering the vital question: 'Truly, what does all this mean?' A must-read book for practising clinicians and academics in the mental health and humanities fields that investigates the wide range of theories on truth, how they have changed over the years, and their practical applications.

Download or read book Spiritual Influence written by Mel Lawrenz and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2012-07-24 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If you are in a position of positive influence, if you exercise leadership in any way, your faith in God gives you a power—a hidden power—that will allow you to make an enduring difference in the lives of other people and organizations. But how does that power work?" So says Mel Lawrenz in this fresh look at leadership which offers practical and biblical guidance to believers who want to have a deep influence and who want to know: What is the proper use of authority and power? Where do good ideas come from? How can we deal with failure? What does God expect of us? Drawing from more than thirty years of experience in pastoral ministry, Lawrenz writes for Christians in any position of influence. This book provides a new baseline for 21st century Christian leadership, addressing issues such as: • building integrity • seizing opportunities • exploring new horizons • speaking into crises • receiving power • accepting authority • promoting truth • managing expectations • dealing with criticism Using real-life examples, key Scripture passages, and history, Lawrenz shows that when believers align their responsibility to lead with the teaching of Jesus and the work of God’s Spirit, their spiritual influence will have integrity and enduring effectiveness. "Lawrenz gives us hope that the leadership pendulum which has swung from "over- spiritualized" to "de-spiritualized" in recent generations may have finally come to rest where it always belonged—upon Jesus Christ." - Skye Jethani, Senior Editor, Leadership Journal, from the foreword "It is exciting to think about believers at every level of society rising to a new call to exercise powerful spiritual influence. In his newest book, Spiritual Influence, Mel Lawrenz has given us all a new baseline for leadership that is personal, wise, and spiritual. It spans the generations and reaches across cultures. Just think what will happen if believers in positions of influence tie into the wisdom and the power that comes from God in order to bring restoration in our broken world!” - Mark Batterson, Lead Pastor, National Community Church in Washington, D.C.

Download or read book Making It Count written by Stanley Lieberson and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1987-03-16 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title reexamines and reconsiders the model of empirical research underlying most empirical work. The goal is neither a whitewash nor capital punishment, but rather it is to reform and mold empirical research into an activity that contributes as much as possible to a rigorous understanding of society. Without worrying about defining science or even determining the essence of the scientific enterprise, the goal is one that pools together logical thinking and empirically determined information. One of the fundamental issues to be addressed in this volume: Are there questions currently studied that are basically unanswerable even if the investigator had ideal nonexperimental data? If so, what are the alternative questions that can be dealt with successfully by empirical social research, and how should they be approached? In the chapters ahead, it will be important to keep in mind this doctrine of the undoable. Of course, one cannot simply mutter "undoable" when a difficult obstacle is encountered, turn off the computer, and look in the want ads for a new job—or at least a new task. Instead, it means considering if there is some inherent logical reason or sociological force that makes certain empirical questions unanswerable. There are four types of undoable questions to consider: those that are inherently impossible; those that are premature; those that are overly complicated; and those that empirical and theoretical knowledge have nullified.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of this world will never know who Paul Twitchell IS, and who he was while he was here. To many, he was a spiritual leader who created his own teaching, and was heavily criticized for it by those who could not See past their Literal Senses. Paul used certain terms to express his personal experiences and the experiences he had with many of his teachers and eventually Rebazar Tarzs. No matter, what he was presenting is the most important part, which is that part of ourselves that is so unseen and unnoticed, along with The TruReality Life IS. Paul was kind in his approach as he used the common words most people were familiar with like, soul, god, spiritual, salvation and so on. For those who have come here for their own experiences, they have invented their own symbols and their relationship to them, and so as Human History continues to record itself, so do the words and ideas move along their own paths to become understood as they will.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The people of the earth have no idea the danger they are in without knowing who they really are. Humans have always convinced themselves from others like them, and so the earth is what it is today and far from anything Real. Beyond all the invented ideas of humans from their technology to their gods, almost everyone is lost to The TruReality Life IS... THE ALLIS. When Rebazar Tarzs first taught Paul Twitchell and Young Duane, only they were shown THE IS. When Paul was given THE ROD OF POWER in 1965, the world was not ready for THE IS. And so it took many years before the humans were even slightly ready, but the time had to come, because there is only so much time left for people to decide if they are going to stay here or start their own Journey to RealFreedom. The Real UNUverses are far beyond the Invented Gods of Men, and so it is only for The Bold and The Brave to discover What IS Real Now. Have Fun Deciding! www.DuaneTheGreatWriter.Info

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout Human History there have been so many who have been recognized for their contribution to mankind, but very few of them measure up to Rebazar Tarzs. We are all Beings of Light from THE ALLIS. While we are here we have to deal with all the discrimination that is created from nothing, but then becomes what it does to the point of such an aberration that few people can really figure out What IS Real and what is not. Very few will ever come to know The TruReality LifeIS, but merely the Gods of Men and their Authoritarian Rulers on this planet and other like it. For sure you have to be a Real RiskTaker to discover what lies beyond the gods humans have invented along with their limited heavens. All of us have spent many lifetimes of being subjected to Distorted Documentation, along with all the brutal acts imposed upon us from those who rule, so there is a huge fear-factor that has lodged itself in the subconscious body of each of us.

Download or read book Real Influence written by Mark Goulston and published by AMACOM Div American Mgmt Assn. This book was released on 2013 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People won't put up with being "sold" anymore. If they sense they are being pushed, their guard goes up-and even if they do comply, lingering resentment undermines the relationship...maybe forever. Yet, most books on influence still portray it as something you "do to" someone else to get your way. That out-of-date approach invites resistance or cynicism from those who recognize the techniques. Manipulative tactics might occasionally wear down a colleague's or client's resistance, but they fail to produce the mutual trust that sustains successful relationships. In short, they just won't work in our sophisticated, post-selling world. In this groundbreaking book, authors Mark Goulston and John Ullmen reveal a new model for authentic influence-the kind that creates a strong initial connection and survives long after agreement has been reached. Based on listening, genuine engagement and commitment to win-win outcomes, Real Influence provides a powerful four-step method you can use to: * Examine your priorities * Learn about the key players and what they need * Earn their attention and motivate them to hear more * Add value with your questions and actions Complete with examples of the steps in action and insights from real-world "power influencers," this one-of-a-kind guide shows that being straight with everyone means winning for all. www.getrealinfluence.com

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We now come to The Chosen Few, those who are given The Real Opportunity to See and Be what the rest of the people on this 'Place in Life' cannot See or Be. Since the beginning of my short time here, I have learned a lot and also taught a lot of people. I have experienced their enthusiasm and their pain, and also watched them drift away, then go back into their Earthly routine and forget once more who they really are. In Paul Twitchell's time it was the 'membership idea,' as this is what people needed as a means to relate to what Paul was presenting. In such a short time, the membership idea has become an artifact, an ancient philosophy, an outdated idea and nothing more. The NUNowness is all about The Real RiskTaker, a person who Sees Beyond what has already taken place and is ready to dedicate their life to a Real Lifestyle, not just that of still staying as an 'attendee' with the old routine.

The DNA of business has changed. Forever. You can blame technology, smartphones, social media, online shopping and everything else, but nothingchanges this reality: we are in a moment of business purgatory.

To reboot and to start re-building your business model. If you don't, Joel warns, not only will your company begin to slide backwards, but you may find yourself unemployable within five years. That's a very strong warning, but in his new book, CTRL ALT DELETE, Joel explains the convergence of five key movements that have changed business forever. The movements have already taken place, but few businesses have acted on them. He outlines what you need to know to adapt right now.
