Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Principal’s Hot Seat: Observing Real-World Dilemmas, 2nd edition provides a window through which aspiring and practicing school leaders observe and evaluate some of the most challenging, authentic, and unpredictable interactions common to the principalship. With video footage from an unscripted role play in which teachers, parents, and stakeholders share a variety of issues and emotions with the principal, the Hot Seat challenges readers to unpack the ways principals attempt to address routine and unpredictable challenges in school leadership. From distraught, pushy, or irate parents to teachers refusing to collaborate, curriculum controversies and cultural responsivity, readers assume the “hot seat” and feel the challenge principals face in navigating conversations and issues in ethical, individual, standards-based ways. Each chapter begins with stage setting and scenario background information, along with relevant literature, research, and resources, followed by a transcript of the interaction, and questions promoting discussion, reflection, and constructive critique. Each scenario comes alive through several minutes of video footage of the unscripted interaction, allowing examination of body language, tone of voice, and non-verbal communication. The second edition adds new scenarios related to teacher collaboration, controversial curriculum, current social issues, updated literature and resources, and cases in which the principal must interact with more than one stakeholder at a time. New questions examine principals’ performance related to equity, when to seek assistance from others, and more. Video footage located at: https://textbooks.rowman.com/principals-hot-seat2e

Download or read book Hot Seat written by Jeff Immelt and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating and candid memoir about successful leadership from the former CEO of General Electric, named one of the “World’s Best CEOs” three times by Barron’s, and the hard-won lessons he learned from his experience leading GE immediately after 9/11, through the devastating 2008–09 financial crisis, and into an increasingly globalized world. In September 2001, Jeff Immelt replaced the most famous CEO in history, Jack Welch, at the helm of General Electric. Less than a week into his tenure, the 9/11 terrorist attacks shook the nation, and the company, to its core. GE was connected to nearly every part of the tragedy—GE-financed planes powered by GE-manufactured engines had just destroyed real estate that was insured by GE-issued policies. Facing an unprecedented situation, Immelt knew his response would set the tone for businesses everywhere that looked to GE—one of America’s biggest and most-heralded corporations—for direction. No pressure. Over the next sixteen years, Immelt would lead GE through many more dire moments, from the 2008–09 Global Financial Crisis to the 2011 meltdown of Fukushima’s nuclear reactors, which were designed by GE. But Immelt’s biggest challenge was inherited: Welch had handed over a company that had great people, but was short on innovation. Immelt set out to change GE’s focus by making it more global, more rooted in technology, and more diverse. But the stock market rarely rewarded his efforts, and GE struggled. In Hot Seat, Immelt offers a rigorous and raw interrogation of himself and his tenure, detailing for the first time his proudest moments and his biggest mistakes. The most crucial component of leadership, he writes, is the willingness to make decisions. But knowing what to do is a thousand times easier than knowing when to do it. Perseverance, combined with clear communication, can ensure progress, if not perfection, he says. That won’t protect any CEO from second-guessing, but Immelt explains how he’s pushed through even the most withering criticism: by staying focused on his team and the goals they tried to achieve. As the business world continues to be rocked by stunning economic upheaval, Hot Seat “takes you into the office, head, and heart of the man who became CEO of GE on the eve of 9/11, and then led the iconic behemoth for sixteen fascinating, and often turbulent, years. A handbook on leadership—and life” (Stanley A. McChrystal, General, US Army [Retired], CEO and Founder, McChrystal Group).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Glass Castle meets The Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother in this dazzlingly honest and provocative family memoir by former child actress and current Fox Business Network anchor Melissa Francis. When Melissa Francis was eight years old, she won the role of lifetime: playing Cassandra Cooper Ingalls, the little girl who was adopted with her brother (played by young Jason Bateman) by the Ingalls family on the world's most famous primetime soap opera, Little House on the Prairie. Despite her age, she was already a veteran actress, living a charmed life, moving from one Hollywood set to the next. But behind the scenes, her success was fueled by the pride, pressure, and sometimes grinding cruelty of her stage mother, as fame and a mother's ambition pushed her older sister deeper into the shadows. Diary of a Stage Mother's Daughter is a fascinating account of life as a child star in the 1980's, and also a startling tale of a family under the care of a highly neurotic, dangerously competitive "tiger mother." But perhaps most importantly, now that Melissa has two sons of her own, it's a meditation on motherhood, and the value of pushing your children: how hard should you push a child to succeed, and at what point does your help turn into harm?

Book excerpt: A candid and colorful memoir by the singer, songwriter, and “Duchess of Coolsville” (Time). This troubadour life is only for the fiercest hearts, only for those vessels that can be broken to smithereens and still keep beating out the rhythm for a new song . . . Last Chance Texaco is the first-ever no-holds-barred account of the life of two-time Grammy Award-winner and Rickie Lee Jones in her own words (Hilton Als). It is a tale of desperate chances and impossible triumphs, an adventure story of a girl who beat the odds and grew up to become one of the most legendary artists of her time, turning adversity and hopelessness into timeless music. With candor and lyricism, she takes us on a singular journey through her nomadic childhood, her years as a teenage runaway, her legendary love affair with Tom Waits, and ultimately her longevity as the hardest working woman in rock and roll. Rickie Lee’s stories are rich with the infamous characters of her early songs—“Chuck E’s in Love,” “Weasel and the White Boys Cool,” “Danny’s All-Star Joint,” and “Easy Money”—but long before her notoriety in show business, there was a vaudevillian cast of hitchhikers, bank robbers, jail breaks, drug mules, and a pimp with a heart of gold, and tales of her fabled ancestors. This intimate memoir by one of the most trailblazing and tenacious women in music is filled with never-before-told stories of the girl in the raspberry beret, whose songs defied categorization and inspired American pop culture for decades. “A striking, distinctive self-portrait.” —The New York Times “Terrific . . . Jones is as fearless in prose as she is on stage.” —Minneapolis Star-Tribune “Men leave, fame fizzles, family breaks your heart . . . but Jones knows a good story and how to tell it.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “[The] premiere song-stylist and songwriter of her generation.” —Hilton Als, Pulitzer Prize–winner and author of White Girls

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grandsons Jace, Jax, and Jude, who their sisters refer to as the Sex Alphabet Trio, are busy conducting promiscuous After-School-Specials with teen classmates. And with their more recent exploits, have now turned to Dru for informative sexual tidbits about the female persuasion, which doesn't please him. After all, he's barely managed to keep Juel and Jetta on his radar with young cowboys, Jeb and Chance's, growing affectionate advances, and the Two for One twin TV stars chasing his granddaughters about. Yet, Dru's left to wonder how me got in the mix of rearing five teen grandchildren, who have five other grandparents. Hell, he's still learning to parent his finger-biting, razor-edged, tooth-bearing, one-year-old, whose favorite word is 'no' or any cuss word she happens to hear and keep his fifty-seven-year-old wife in line! And speaking of his wife, the 'little things' that consistently happen to Jett are driving Dru insane! He cannot believe this one small woman utilizes her 'directionally dysfunctional' brain to find 'alternative directions', which she claims cause her to end up in the same place, which is where she wanted to be all along, and with their child in the car! The good Lord knows she can hardly navigate herself around the estate's circular driveway! And her appearance on the famous Hollywood Squares Celebrity Week was a massive fiasco! Dru got to witness his wife on national television as she appeared in the ostentatious middle square giving far more than detailed answers while toying with her 'quiz quarter', which she swears helped her get the answers right! Or seeing Jett and co-star, Cameron McGinley, during their explicit carnal and total climatic moment in the mystic 'mating chamber', to use the phrase loosely and in surround-sound, no less, which Dru knew nothing about, but watched along with all of Hollywood during its' premiere! And let's not forget the antics she pulls with her Mighty JETT Regime members, Karin, Charisse and Stacy! Yes, Sir Dru Simon knew his wife, whom he loves more than life, was a twit before he married her! But it's a freakin' wonder no man ever killed her! Now, that is something he would thoroughly love to experience; however, he isn't finished with her, yet! The Simon, Landon, Chase, and Savoy families are back and learning more new life lessons as the JETT Ranchettes relax and lounge away on ducky margaritas. You've got to check this out, people!

Book excerpt: Highly educated MBAs usually live the good life: nice house, nice rides, fat bank accounts. But none of those belonged to MBA Ernest Karlsson. His Fraternity-pledge to be both, a millionaire and married before his 30th birthday is three years overdue, as well as heavy debts resulting from dot.com era mis-adventures. Creditor buzzards lurking around his modest apartment and monopolizing his phones symbolize Ernie's decision-making. As any respectable MBA would be, he's nauseated by his failures. Nevertheless, this 6-4, blond hunk didn't take seriously a stopgap entry-level job he accepted. Afterall, why be forthright and candid with co-workers in what's probably a temp job? Unexpectedly Ernie caught his boss's eye, and also the eye of his boss's homely, old-maid daughter. Soon his lack of candor becomes the albatross around his neck when his career's jumpstarted. Finding himself on the CEO fasttrack in a multi-billion dollar conglomerate, the only obstacle could be the TRUTH he's been withholding! Both, the TRUTH and concealing it, could derail his belated destiny if his boss hears it, so Ernest Karlsson decides to buy time, paying hush money! Other alternatives included murder, but are MBAs capable of murder, deception and unrequited Love? Ernest Karlsson didn't think he was, once.

Book excerpt: The star-studded and sidesplitting follow up to The Andy Cohen Diaries The megapopular host of Watch What Happens: Live and executive producer of The Real Housewives franchise is back, better than ever, and telling stories that will keep his publicist up at night. Since the publication of his last book, Andy has toured the country with his sidekick Anderson Cooper, hit the radio waves with his own Sirius station, Radio Andy, appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher despite his mother’s conviction he was not intellectually prepared, hosted NBC’s Primetime New Year’s Eve special, guest edited Entertainment Weekly, starred in Bravo’s Then & Now with Andy Cohen, offended celebrities with his ongoing case of foot-in-mouth disease, and welcomed home Teresa “Namaste” Giudice, from a brief stint in jail. Hopping from the Hamptons to the Manhattan dating world, the dog park to the red carpet, Cardinals superfan and mama’s boy Andy Cohen, with Wacha in tow, is the kind of star that fans are dying to be friends with. This book gives them that chance. If The Andy Cohen Diaries was deemed “the literary equivalent of a Fresca and tequila” by Jimmy Fallon, Superficial is a double: dishier, juicier, and friskier. In this account of his escapades—personal, professional, and behind-the-scenes—Andy tells us not only what goes down, but exactly what he thinks of it.

Download or read book The Mother Blame Game written by Vanessa Reimer and published by Demeter Press. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mother-Blame Game is an interdisciplinary and intersectional examination of the phenomenon of mother-blame in the twenty-first century. As the socioeconomic and cultural expectations of what constitutes “good motherhood” grow continually narrow and exclusionary, mothers are demonized and stigmatized—perhaps now more than ever—for all that is perceived to go “wrong” in their children’s lives. This anthology brings together creative and scholarly contributions from feminist academics and activists alike to provide a dynamic study of the many varied ways in which mothers are blamed and shamed for their maternal practice. Importantly, it also considers how mothers resist these ideologies by engaging in empowered and feminist mothering practices, as well as by publicly challenging patriarchal discourses of “good motherhood.”
