Download or read book Jimmy Bluefeather written by Kim Heacox and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2015-09-01 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Old Keb Wisting is somewhere around ninety-five years old (he lost count awhile ago) and in constant pain and thinks he wants to die. He also thinks he thinks too much. Part Norwegian and part Tlingit Native (“with some Filipino and Portuguese thrown in”), he’s the last living canoe carver in the village of Jinkaat, in Southeast Alaska. When his grandson, James, a promising basketball player, ruins his leg in a logging accident and tells his grandpa that he has nothing left to live for, Old Keb comes alive and finishes his last canoe, with help from his grandson. Together (with a few friends and a crazy but likeable dog named Steve) they embark on a great canoe journey. Suddenly all of Old Keb’s senses come into play, so clever and wise in how he reads the currents, tides and storms. Nobody can find him. He and the others paddle deep into wild Alaska, but mostly into the human heart, in a story of adventure, love, and reconciliation. With its rogue’s gallery of colorful, endearing, small-town characters, this book stands as a wonderful blend of Mark Twain’s THE ADVENTURES OF HUCKLEBERRY FINN and John Nichols’s THE MILAGRO BEANFIELD WAR, with dashes of John Steinbeck thrown in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by Joe Britto, The Six Attributes of a Leadership Mindset: Flexibility of mind, mindfulness, resilience, genuine curiosity, creating leaders, enterprise thinking carefully examines the six key attributes that make up a leadership mindset, and explores in detail how you can grow them for yourself. Foreword by Gill White. We can find a different way of leading by developing a different way of thinking. And the first step in growing a leadership mindset is taking responsibility for making that shift happen. In this insightful handbook, Joe Britto shines a spotlight on the qualities and behaviours that embody a leadership mindset and inspires leaders to step out of their comfort zone as they take on the challenges faced by their teams and organizations. With the help of engaging stories, practical challenges, and an acute sense of humour, Joe guides you through six key attributes of leadership flexibility of mind, mindfulness, resilience, genuine curiosity, creating leaders, and enterprise thinking and explores how you can bring them to life both within and beyond the workplace. Joe does this by breaking down what the six attributes are and how they work, and by considering and suggesting ways around the barriers we may inadvertently put up that inhibit the development of our leadership capacities. From there he delves into the behaviours of each attribute for example, asking What if? and demonstrating generosity of spirit under the attribute of genuine curiosity and presents a range of exercises you can use in order to cultivate them. In doing so, he reveals the real gift of a leadership mindset: that as we grow our mindset and develop positive behaviours, we can lead ourselves and our teams to better outcomes and nurture the leadership capacities of others. Suitable for both established and emerging leaders.
Book Synopsis Crafting Calm by : Maggie Oman Shannon
Download or read book Crafting Calm written by Maggie Oman Shannon and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-04-08 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As our world has become increasingly dependent on technology, and our Western societies have become woefully “Crackberried”— to use the title of a recent documentary on the emotional and social pitfalls of our too-wired ways—an intriguing phenomenon is occurring: There is an increasing amount of interest in returning to some of the simpler arts that were neglected or left behind with the onslaught of technology. Artisans and everyday crafters are finding a renewed satisfaction in making something with their own hands; some are even communicating about the inherent physical- and mental-health benefits found in handwork—and, even more than that, they are framing their handwork as meditation or spiritual practice. In today’s sophisticated and pluralistic society, people are more aware than ever that spiritual practice can be defined more expansively—and the popularity of books focusing on alternative spiritual practices demonstrate that readers are hungry for new (or ancient) ways of enhancing their inner lives. In Crafting Calm the author will explore these new forms of creative spiritual practice and the benefits they provide. The format of With Shannon's book will itself be creative, a rich “potpourri approach” that weaves together interviews, historical facts, projects for readers to do themselves, quotations, and suggested resources. Crafting Calm will serve as an inspirational resource guide to a broad assortment of spiritual practices gathered from the global arts-and-crafts communities, as well as from people who don’t consider themselves artists but who have adopted creatively expressive forms of spiritual practice. While there have been a few books published focusing on a particular form of creative spiritual practice (Skylight Paths, for example, has published books on beading as a spiritual practice; painting as a spiritual practice; and using clay as a spiritual practice), no one has yet explored the breadth of possibilities for creative spiritual practices contained in Crafting Calm.

Book Synopsis Publications Combined: EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE COMPETENCIES AND MILITARY LEADERSHIP by : U.S. Department Of Defense
Download or read book Publications Combined: EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE COMPETENCIES AND MILITARY LEADERSHIP written by U.S. Department Of Defense and published by Jeffrey Frank Jones. This book was released on with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 700 total pages .... Introduction: Leadership has often been viewed as more of an art than a science. However, the expanding field of neuroscience is confirming that leadership may be more science than art. While the thinking components of the brain have been noticeably evolving along with the pace of technology, the emotional parts are still very primitive, yet play an important role in leadership and behavior. The latest neurological, psychological, and organizational research is converging towards the fact that emotional leadership is the key ingredient to an organization’s performance. Successfully leading in dynamic, complex environments, making wise decisions while facing tremendous resource constraints, avoiding moral and ethical lapses, preventing failures in leadership, building healthy relationships, and fostering resiliency across the workforce is less about the hard skills of cognitive intelligence and more about the soft skills of emotional intelligence. Leaders still need foundational, cognitive skills, but they cannot lead solely from their intellect in today’s interconnected world. Contains the following studies / publications: 1. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE COMPETENCIES AND THE ARMY LEADERSHIP REQUIREMENTS MODEL 2. THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND LEADER PERFORMANCE 3. THE FAILURE OF SUCCESS: HOW THE BATHSHEBA SYNDROME AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE CONTRIBUTE TO THE DOWNFALL OF ARMY ORGANIZATIONAL-LEVEL LEADER 4. Emotional Intelligence: Advocating for the Softer Side of Leadership 5. Lack of Emotional Intelligence as a Factor in the Relief of US Army Commanders 6. Refinement and Validation of a Military Emotional Intelligence Training Program 7. DEVELOPING A CULTURAL INTELLIGENCE CAPABILITY 8.

When Rosaleena invites the Colonel to her birthday ball at Sir Uriel's London house and he graciously accepts much to the strangely virulent disapproval of Sir Uriel, she sets in motion a sequence of events that will turn her life upside down. Journeying from fashionable London Society to the rugged mountains of a remote part of Ireland, Rosaleena will discover not only that true love never does run smooth but that it is by its nature never tame.

Book Synopsis Toward Antarctica by : Elizabeth Bradfield
Download or read book Toward Antarctica written by Elizabeth Bradfield and published by Red Hen Press. This book was released on 2019-05-09 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The most original piece of travel writing about the Antarctic region I have read in years . . . Bradfield is a literary tour guide in the best sense.” —Elizabeth Leane, author of Antarctica in Fiction: Imaginative Narratives of the Far South A poet and a naturalist, Elizabeth Bradfield documents and examines her work as a guide on ships in Antarctica through poetry, prose, and photographs, offering an incisive insider’s vision that challenges traditional tropes of The Last Continent. Inspired by haibun, a stylistic form of Japanese poetry invented by seventeenth-century poet Matsuo Basho to chronicle his journeys in remote Japan, Bradfield uses photographs, compressed prose, and short poems to examine our relationship to remoteness, discovery, expertise, awe, labor, temporary societies, “pure” landscapes, and tourism’s service economy. Antarctica was the focus of Bradfield’s Approaching Ice, written before she had set foot on the continent; now Toward Antarctica furthers her investigation with boots on the ground. A complicated love letter, Toward Antarctica offers a unique view of one of the world’s most iconic wild places. Like having a poet’s behind-the-scenes tour of a natural history museum . . . the exquisite landscape and wildlife come into vivid view; so does the gutsy work and responsibility of being a naturalist guide.” —Alison Hawthorne Deming, author of Zoologies: On Animals and the Human Spirit
