Sinopsis

For most of the lifespan of the new South Africa, leadership consultant Adriaan Groenewald has interviewed and written about top political, corporate, entertainment and sports leaders. His leadership model embraces the legacy of Nelson Mandela - to unselfishly unite people around the creation of positive movement towards the impossible, while fearlessly, openly embracing and confronting all obstacles along the way. What makes a seamless leader? The book combines theory and practice in subjects such as decision making, combining success and values, igniting passion and shifting attitude, performance, multiplying leaders for real impact, motivation, courageous conversations, and leading in difficult times or sensitive situations. Short chapters are complemented by 'interview' sections which illuminate principles learned from personal leadership conversations with individuals from different sectors of society, ranging from President Jacob Zuma to Helen Zille and Sizwe Nxasana to Mike Brown.

    “A great book about spirituality and success.”—Judd Apatow, comedian and director of The 40-Year-Old Virgin 
    Wondering how to reconcile your artistic calling with your need to make a living, or what to do once your art starts selling, or if being successful makes you a sellout, or what it even means to be successful? 
    This friendly, funny, practical book for creatives and entrepreneurs gets to the heart of these questions. A four-time Emmy award-winning and two-time Grammy-nominated composer-guitarist-producer who has worked with Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Jerry Garcia, Lana Del Rey, and Krishna Das, among many others, and who is also a beloved Buddhist teacher, David Nichtern teaches readers how to integrate their creative process with their spiritual practice and livelihood.  
    Nichtern offers his lived, learned experience as an entrepreneur, musician, and Buddhist teacher to first help you figure out what “success” means to you and then show you how to get there. He offers advice on the creative process and principles of business and ethics—everything from “listen to the muse!” to “protect your intellectual property!”—and provides mindfulness exercises to help you integrate inspiration and aspiration, vocation and avocation—to go from surviving to thriving.  
    Whether you’re a baker trying to grow from the farmer’s market to a brick-and-mortar or a CEO exploring how taking care of your employees can be the same as taking care of your business—if you’re trying to align your spiritual, creative, and financial pursuits and discover what it means to truly live well, this book is for you.

Drawing on e-mails and letters from employees and employers across America, Dr. Lloyd presents numerous examples of some of the most outrageous classic and current workplace (mis)behaviors—past and present—along with the most powerful strategies that readers can use today to deal effectively with them.There is no single, simple strategy that works on every Jerk.

Jerks at Work provides a wide array of strategies to deal with all the Jerks you come across. There are the time-tested, classical methods for the retro-jerks—the screamers, impractical jokers, egomaniacs, complainers, and non-stop talkers. Then there are new, state-of-the-art strategies to deal with a generation of cyber-jerks that includes bullies, jerks on cellphones, and jerks online. Additionally, a new section, exclusive to this revised edition, covers some of the most outrageous workplace behaviors that one could ever encounter.Inside, you'll also find these other helpful tips:Getting insight into the causes of Jerk-like behaviorStep-by-step programs to deal with Jerks of every persuasionCoping with the most outrageous Jerk behaviors ever documentedThe best ways to avoid becoming a Jerk yourselfAnd much, much more!

    Dilemma Management is a harsh work for the harsh and changing times in the UK. This book has been written to challenge the reader, maybe even to disconcert him or her.
    Tony Morden makes absolutely no apology for questioning outdated professional wisdoms or established paradigms, arguing that a large upward step change is urgently needed in professional mindset and competence in this country, and especially in a post-Coronavirus era.
    Tony defines and describes the process of dilemma management and illustrates this process with a variety of case studies from business, politics, healthcare, procurement, security, sport, and more generally from the taxpayer-funded public sector.

    A mentor, advisor, or even a friend? Making connections in college makes all the difference. 
     
     
     
    What single factor makes for an excellent college education? As it turns out, it's pretty simple: human relationships. Decades of research demonstrate the transformative potential and the lasting legacies of a relationship-rich college experience. Critics suggest that to build connections with peers, faculty, staff, and other mentors is expensive and only an option at elite institutions where instructors have the luxury of time with students. But in this revelatory book brimming with the voices of students, faculty, and staff from across the country, Peter Felten and Leo M. Lambert argue that relationship-rich environments can and should exist for all students at all types of institutions. 
     
     
     
    In Relationship-Rich Education, Felten and Lambert demonstrate that, for relationships to be central in undergraduate education, colleges and universities do not require immense resources, privileged students, or specially qualified faculty and staff. All students learn best in an environment characterized by high expectation and high support, and all faculty and staff can learn to teach and work in ways that enable relationship-based education.
