Book Synopsis Faust. The Dark Side of Leadership by : Beppe Carrella
Download or read book Faust. The Dark Side of Leadership written by Beppe Carrella and published by goWare. This book was released on 2023-12-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being a leader and saving one’s soul by successfully doing one’s job is a very complex mission. Too often, leadership is but a footnote to ‘a Faustian pact’, an ethical hell that requires the conscientious use of an internal moral GPS. Faust’s story is a guide, capable of giving substance to our most hidden shadows, living with the presence of good and evil, re-establishing a relationship with nature and trying to recover that feminine energy that is present in each of us, often repressed. It could become a lifesaver for learning to juggle in a world that burns everything and everyone on the altar of profit. It is a tale that represents the effort to go beyond rationality and the accumulation of knowledge, a journey to escape the boredom of a life lived through the eyes of others. Perhaps at the end of this journey we will be able to smile at what K. Kraus writes: ‘The devil is an optimist if he thinks he can make men worse’. After all, by now, dear Mephistopheles, I know what you look like, and you are an optimist if you think I will sign a pact with you. Or maybe not?

Book Synopsis Pinocchio. Leadership without Lies by : Beppe Carrella
Download or read book Pinocchio. Leadership without Lies written by Beppe Carrella and published by goWare. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What should Pinocchio, king of liars, teach us about leadership? What does lying mean? What leader would candidly admit, to telling a lot of lies of their own free will? Leadership is made of and is told through stories about great universal values which, however, we prove to lack in our communal everyday life. There are way too many omissions in these stories. True leadership is a whole different thing. Carrella’s is a journey through the truth in the lies set to music, to wild rock and songs that sound like poetry and poetry that sounds like songs. A breathtaking narration. There is no winking at the readers, no attempt to earn their favor. It is hard like only rock can be. Like only true stories are. Every passage a song, a memory, a tiny dot, a tale of business history. Songs, literary works, comics, documentaries, videos are used to portray a most original variation of Pinocchio the hero, looking for freedom through disobedience, lies and the confrontation with own his vulnerability. Which might just be the path of the leader: saying only what other people want you to say. Ultimately, then, Pinocchio the puppet is the one who tells less lies of all.
Download or read book Mother Teresa, CEO written by Ruma Bose and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2011-07-05 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When most people think of Mother Teresa, they think of a saint—a spiritual hero of extraordinary humanitarian accomplishments, a Nobel Peace Prize winner. But Mother Teresa was also the leader of one of the world’s largest and most successful organizations: the Missionaries of Charity. Since founding it in 1948 she has raised millions of dollars and, with over a million volunteers in more than 100 countries, it remains one of the most recognized brands in the world. How did one nun who never received any formal education in business build such an impressive global organization? Frank, realistic, and firmly grounded in practicality, Mother Teresa’s leadership style helped to inspire and organize people across the world. This book shares ten essential leadership principles drawn from Mother Teresa’s example and applies them to today’s business world. Authors Ruma Bose, an entrepreneur who volun- teered with Mother Teresa, and Lou Faust, a leading business expert, are the first to examine her in this light—as a leader whose management style and dedication to a singular vision led to one of the world’s most unlikely success stories. Mother Teresa may have been a saint, but her spectacular success was not a product of divine providence. Her genius was the simplicity of her vision and her dedication to its implementation. It was in the way she treated her people, refusing to distance herself from the everyday work of a typical sister of the Missionaries of Charity. It was in how she handled tough choices—like accepting donations from brutal Haitian dictator François “Papa Doc” Duvalier. These were the principles that made her the great leader of a global organization, and they can be applied by anyone in any organization—no sainthood required.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: VUCA is not just another acronym. Originally coined by the American military to describe a situation fraught with a variety of challenges, it now has a permanent place in the realms of strategic leadership. Those who have made it into an enterprise management role are finding that their leadership skills are truly being tried and tested on account of the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment we are in. Agility is now the name of the game. Developing one's leadership skills to match this requirement, and to not only surmount the challenges posed by the VUCA world but do so in a mature and authentic way, is what this book is all about. It gently submerges the reader into an impressive tank of knowledge that the authors, experts in the field of personal development, have amassed during their careers. Psychology, mythology and examples of real-life enterprises are accompanied by the excellent analogy of one of our best-known heroes, Luke Skywalker of the Star Wars films, to illustrate that there is nothing to fear, that we all have the potential to act courageously. At regular intervals throughout the book, the reader is presented with thought-provoking questions and statements, the answers to which will help them eventually resurface with a clear picture of how to use their skills and talents to motivate themselves and others to proceed wisely in the corporate landscape. Contents: An expert guide from three vastly experienced and accomplished executive coaches Learn effectively at your own pace, any time and anywhere Convincing background knowledge and examples

Book Synopsis Counter-currents by : Edgar A. Pieterse
Download or read book Counter-currents written by Edgar A. Pieterse and published by Jacana Media. This book was released on 2010 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The City of Cape Town is heading for disaster and is already in deep crisis if one cares to look close enough. The recent proliferation of public construction, public squares and public housing along the N2 towards the airport is little more than a mirage compared with the direction of more underlying trends. Cape Town's grim future is born out of the confluence of the globalised economic and ecological collapse that is fast becoming the defining feature of the twenty-first century. It is manifested most starkly in the dire situation that faces the majority of the city's residents, who are excluded from the formal economy and must rely on substandard public services and their own makeshift shelters. The scenario is serious enough to draw everyone's attention but should be set against the broader issues of long-term economic resilience and environmental sustainability to achieve a low-carbon society - so we have our work cut out for us. The purpose of this volume is to demystify these challenges and present readers with a creative portfolio of thinking, practice and strong vision to show that we can find alternatives - and, moreover, that these alternatives are already emerging in (marginal) sections of the state, civil society and the business sectors."--Introduction.
Book Synopsis Corporate Risks and Leadership by : Eduardo Esteban Mariscotti
Download or read book Corporate Risks and Leadership written by Eduardo Esteban Mariscotti and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-05-13 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The context of business has been changing for companies in recent years, and following numerous corporate and accounting scandals, many countries have increased the number of national and international regulations designed to ensure transparency and compliance with the law. Because of the existence of these new regulations, the level of control, the severity of sanctions by governments, and the amount of the fines for noncompliance have increased dramatically. In parallel, with the technological revolution in communications, business management has become more transparent, and any negative event is uploaded to social networks and shared with an indeterminate number of people. This change in the regulatory, sanctioning and technological context has forced large companies to rethink risks, investments and budgets to deal in this more complex environment. To transition to this change, some companies have included ethics and compliance programs in their corporate agenda, along with marketing and sales plans, strategies, growth targets, investment plans and/or talent acquisition. While each industry has its particular risks, in this book, the author describes the essential elements that any effective ethics and compliance program should contain. This book is a source of information that connects yesterday with today. The author shares observations and lessons of the past to suggest corporate leaders implement effective ethics and compliance programs to protect their organizations and themselves. The book covers theories of ethics but with an eye focused on practical application. Risks, ethics, and compliance are analyzed with an overall vision, connected to the reality of business life, without getting bogged down in abstract thinking or in technical and regulatory details. Ethics and compliance are disciplines that have increasingly achieved greater recognition in organizations. Thus, due to the importance of risk management in the business world and the necessary involvement of the CEO and the board of directors, it seems appropriate that executives get access to a book about risks, ethics, compliance and human resources directed not only to compliance experts but also to any organizational leader. This book is a wake-up call that allows business leaders to understand the benefits of implementing an effective ethics and compliance program that will help members of organizations to make the right decisions and act within the law. If they do, they can better prevent and react to the difficult obstacle course of risks, dangers and threats that organizations face and that may jeopardize the sustainability, resilience, and survival of companies.
