Download or read book Empowered written by Josh Bernoff and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's the new normal. Now all of your employees are Twittering away and friending clients on Facebook. Not to mention customers--who feel obligated to update your Wikipedia entry with product complaints. In this new world, dealing with empowered employees and customers --Insurgents -- is only going to get more challenging. Employees are using this technology in the workplace and customers are using it in the marketplace, and neither obey the rules you set up. This chaos is your future as a manager. You could try to shut it down and shut it off. Or you can harness it and reap the business benefits. According to Josh Bernoff and Ted Schadler of Forrester Research (the organization that brought you Groundswell), your defense against insurgents is to enable them. At its heart, this is a book about how to scale the management of insurgency, both the innovation of insurgent employees and the energy of insurgent customers. The key is a process Forrester calls E Triple S, for the four elements of managing insurgents effectively: empowering, selecting, scaling, and socializing. While it's based in current trends, the core concept of Managing Insurgents -- that the next management and innovation challenge is harnessing individuals empowered by mobile, social, and connected technology -- is a new idea. In the wake of Groundswell, dozens of social-technology-for-business books cropped up. And there are plenty of books on improving your customer service. But there's no serious business book about management, marketing, and innovation in the throes of this trend. When Insurgency hits, it will be perceived not just as a sequel to Groundswell but as the start of a new management philosophy.

Mathilda Brandt is one of the Empowered: men and women who possess extraordinary abilities that set them apart from the rest of humanity. The rare few who do become Empowered face a stark choice. They must either join the Hero Council, following any and all orders in the service of protecting humanity, or forswear ever using their power. Mathilda rejected that choice and went rogue, joining a hidden community of other rogue Empowered. Captured by the authorities, she was sent to prison. Five years later, she’s been paroled from Special Corrections and just wants to live a normal life. Only the world won’t let her. To save her family, she joins a secretive government agency, with orders to infiltrate the world’s most notorious rogue Empowered group. Mat’s assignment becomes not only a private war to stop deadly Empowered threats to the world, but a quest to uncover the secrets behind those extraordinary abilities. But will she and the rest of humanity survive her learning the truth? This eBook collection includes the entire Empowered series: all five novels--Agent, Traitor, Outlaw, Rebel, and Hero--as well as the prequel novella Renegade and linking short story “Nullified.”

Book Synopsis Ideologies of History in the Spanish Golden Age by : Anthony J. Cascardi
Download or read book Ideologies of History in the Spanish Golden Age written by Anthony J. Cascardi and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1997-09-15 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries was in the throes of modernization arising from trade with the New World and the rise of an urban society. During this period, Spanish culture came to be dominated by the tension between an old regime of traditional values&—honor, lineage, purity of blood&—and these modernizing influences. Anthony J. Cascardi examines the literature of the Golden Age as the point at which tensions between the old and the new converged and proposes that this historical drama provided the context for subject-formation in early modern Spain. He examines how Spanish writers envisioned history and studies how these visions revealed or concealed contradictions between social values of their time, particularly between the value systems of caste and class. Ideologies of History in the Spanish Golden Age draws on recent theoretical paradigms in contemporary philosophy, psychoanalysis, political and social theory, and literary history to place Spain's major literary figures in challenging new contexts. By accounting for both modernizing desires and resistances to modernization, Cascardi provides readers interested in theories of ideology and history with a new way of looking at the literature of the Spanish Golden Age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A game plan for overcoming societal expectations and ingrained roadblocks to turn your everyday existence into a purpose-filled life. There is nothing more demotivating than working just for a paycheck and believing money and materialism will bring happiness, or selling your soul for what we have been taught to believe will make us happy. How do you know if you’re living your purpose? When you’re living your purpose, you are motivated, grateful, inspired, joyful, peaceful, and experience abundance. The complete opposite of this is just surviving and doing what everyone else is doing. Everyone wants to be a hero and share their calling to make the world a better place. Everyone wants to feel passion in life. The challenge is to find the gift buried below all the societal conditioning we have absorbed in our life and what we are told will bring us joy. You can find that spark of divinity and empowerment inside of you. Anyone committed to embracing and applying the practical tools in The Hero Inside You can change the way they feel, find their calling, thrive and fall in love with life. The Hero Inside You teaches you how to find your purpose buried deep inside the heart; you cannot use the logical mind the way most people think and believe to discover this purpose . . . this calling. Learn how take the hero’s journey and live the life you were meant to live and be the true you.

This student-focused volume offers practical and specific answers to these questions and includes suggestions for teaching the novel in conventional and online modalities. Distinguished Nabokov scholars explore the multilayered nature of Lolita by sharing innovative assignments, creative-writing exercises, methodologies of teaching the novel through film and theatre, and new critical analyses and interpretations.

This book was released on 2016-09-06 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifth and most popular book of the Ramayana of Valmiki, the Sundarakanda, recounts the adventures of the monkey hero Hanuman in leaping across the ocean to the island citadel of Lanka. Once there, he scours the city for the abducted Princess Sita. The poet vividly describes the opulence of the court of the demon king, Ravana, the beauty of his harem, and the hideous deformity of Sita's wardresses. After witnessing Sita's stern rejection of Ravana's blandishments, Hanuman reveals himself to the princess and restores her hope of rescue. The great monkey then wreaks havoc on the royal park and fights a series of hair-raising battles with Ravana's generals. Permitting himself to be captured by the warrior Indrajit, Hanuman is led into the presence of Ravana, whom he admonishes for his lechery. His tail is set ablaze, but he escapes his bonds and leaping from rooftop to rooftop, sets fire to the city. Taking leave of Sita, Hanuman once more leaps the ocean to rejoin his monkey companions. This is the fifth volume translated from the critical edition of the Valmiki Ramayana. It contains an extensive introduction, exhaustive notes, and a comprehensive bibliography.
