Download or read book Boards That Dare written by Marc Stigter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boards That Dare offers actionable solutions to help board directors, chairs and CEOs move away from outmoded thinking and practices. THE CHALLENGE Corporate boards as fiduciaries are responsible for delivering maximum value and the highest standards of care. The persistent misconception that boards should be driven primarily by shareholder value will soon be an outdated one, and boards that continue to apply narrow interpretations of value and care are unlikely to survive. THE OPPORTUNITY This book reveals a future-proofing opportunity for courageous boards to redefine value and care for employees, consumers, communities, society, the environment, and shareholders. There is no point in trying to reframe value and care for a wider range of audiences if boards don't have the right capabilities and attitudes themselves. THE SOLUTION Boards that Dare invites boards to challenge shortcomings in their own ability, understanding and courage. The book shows how boards embracing this new kind of broadened fiduciary dynamism will become future-proof and realize sustained shareholder value as an output. THE RESEARCH Based on the authors' first-hand experiences, as well as their own research and interviews with board members and chairs of international private, public and not-for-profit organizations, this highly practical and cutting-edge book delivers the necessary solutions on how to future-proof today's boards.

Download or read book Courageous Living written by Michael Catt and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the new film COURAGEOUS (from the makers of Fireproof), four police officers are confident and focused when it comes to facing danger on the job. But leading their families at home in a God-honoring way? That takes courage. Because it is important to take a faithful, fearless stand in so many areas of life, pastor and COURAGEOUS executive producer Michael Catt offers Courageous Living as a closer look at biblical themes and characters that inspired the greatly anticipated movie. Catt brings fresh insight to "stories of people in the Bible who displayed great courage when it would have been easier to play it safe... (who) challenge me to keep moving forward. They demand that I examine my priorities and deal with anything that brings fear to my heart." Readers will catch a new wind of bravery in the bold accounts of Abraham ("The Courage to Get Going"), Nehemiah ("The Courage to Face Criticism"), and Ruth ("The Courage to Face an Uncertain Future"). There are also growth opportunities in the stirring stories of Moses, Elijah, Joshua, Daniel, Gideon, Nehemiah, Stephen, and Paul and Timothy.
Download or read book Dare to Lead written by Brené Brown and published by Random House. This book was released on 2018-10-09 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Brené Brown has taught us what it means to dare greatly, rise strong, and brave the wilderness. Now, based on new research conducted with leaders, change makers, and culture shifters, she’s showing us how to put those ideas into practice so we can step up and lead. Don’t miss the five-part HBO Max docuseries Brené Brown: Atlas of the Heart! NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BLOOMBERG Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential. When we dare to lead, we don’t pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don’t see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don’t avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when it’s necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we’re choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we’re scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and AI can’t do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start. Four-time #1 New York Times bestselling author Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture? In this new book, Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer these questions in the no-BS style that millions of readers have come to expect and love. Brown writes, “One of the most important findings of my career is that daring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100 percent teachable, observable, and measurable. It’s learning and unlearning that requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart. Easy? No. Because choosing courage over comfort is not always our default. Worth it? Always. We want to be brave with our lives and our work. It’s why we’re here.” Whether you’ve read Daring Greatly and Rising Strong or you’re new to Brené Brown’s work, this book is for anyone who wants to step up and into brave leadership.

Download or read book Dare! written by Jorj-Mădălin Mihailovici and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-09 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you curious to find out the story of a company that went from a static platform to winning the Best Business Transformation Project in the World?Why another book about business transformation? The answer is simple: because it is needed. We have seen business transformation projects fail and being abandoned and forgotten by those who initiated them. In some business communities, these projects are perceived as an 'inevitable evil'. Therefore, many organizations seem to oppose, avoid or at least try to delay it. This 'inevitable evil' paradigm is just a misconception. Understanding how to use business transformation as a strategic tool is more powerful than any fears. And it pays off.This book is a book of layers. It is born out of an outstanding collaboration between professionals of rather different personalities, expertise and expe¬rience. It is about leaders who went all in to achieve a 21st century organizational model, a snapshot into the work of more than 2.000 people as they went above and beyond trying to change their fate for more than 4 years.This book tells the story of a Project that has been designed from the start with the quest for exce-llence as an objective - it was envisioned to be globally recognized as one of the best business transformation initiatives, not just within the utilities sector, but across all industries.Some early reviews: "I've witnessed several presentations of the Project and in all of them my first impression was that the precise construct of the new organization, the description of each new role, and the risk analysis conducted to ascertain the risks of such an undertaking, all had an extraordinary level of detail. Of particular interest to me was the amount of people involved from the organization undergoing the change. That speaks well not only of the level of commitment of the leadership, but also of the level of enthusiasm and engagement of the workforce. I attribute this to the dedication of the Company's Leadership and Project's Leadership to deploy such an initiative. About the next steps: I am eager to know how this effort is being replicated across the Veolia family, and what challenges and opportunities are being captured and learned from in these future deployments. I recommend the book to all Managers looking to transform their Companies to meet the 21st Century challenges." Hugo Ashkar, Risk Manager - Global Projects Organization BP"Corporations, especially the bigger ones, constantly undergo organizational changes. Unfortunately, they do not remember the basics. The basics are that the organization of companies has to follow the processes, which follow the priorities, which follow the goals, which follow the vision and mission of the company. Getting all of this right, with all its consequences, is key to organizational change. Organizational Structure follows processes and processes follow purpose. This is exactly what Veolia did, and they did it right. The Project and the book are an inspiration for any Organizational Journey." Alexander Breskvar, Corporate VP of Quality Management - Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy"Cristian Matei and the leadership team of Veolia impressed the judges at the Global OPEX Awards 2019 with the extensive and strategic work they've done to turnaround the Veolia businesses, so much that they won the "Best Business Transformation Project" Category that year! They have also shared the journey and the transformation methodologies behind this winning story at the event and the audience were inspired by the depth of the transformation and the game-changing methodologies that completely reinvented the company DNA. It was my tremendous pleasure to have worked with Cristian and his team in the past few years, sharing their successes with our PEX Community, and couldn't be prouder to see their work published, so as to provide insights and positive influence for an even wider audience." Cathy Gu, Event Director, PEX Network & OPEX Week
