Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the latest research in the battle against autism. According to numerous news reports, the increase in special needs children has reached epidemic proportions. Autism is a complex developmental disability that typically appears during the first three years of life. The result of a neurological disorder that affects the functioning of the brain, autism and its associated behaviours have been estimated to occur in as many as 2 to 6 in 1,000 individuals. Autism is four times more prevalent in boys than girls and knows no racial, ethnic, or social boundaries. Autism is a spectrum disorder. The symptoms and characteristics of autism can present themselves in a wide variety of combinations, from mild to severe. Although autism is defined by a certain set of behaviours, children and adults can exhibit any combination of the behaviours in any degree of severity. People with autism process and respond to information in unique ways. In some cases, aggressive and/or self-injurious behaviour may be present.

Download or read book Elements of Leadership written by J. L. Cearley and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-15 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leadership tends to remain an undefined quality to most managers. We see people with leadership abilities and often refer to them as having leadership skills. Yet, in most personnel meetings, leadership is mostly discussed as a singular skill that one either possesses or not. In the process of selecting personnel for advancement in management, the most common approach is to cherry-pick those who look and act most like us, or someone who matches our paradigm of a leader. This book attempts to break down leadership into teachable skill sets that can be practiced and honed to improve your leadership abilities. It is designed in individual elements to allow you to focus on one area at a time for more effective learning.

Download or read book The Skill written by Les Woller and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most critical tool needed to increase your potential, performance and promotability In a world moving at breakneck speed, with constant and complex changes, people need to adapt to the changing conditions to succeed. More specifically, they need The Skill. This book offers readers the chance to learn and apply a proven methodology for managing challenges such as personal change, new jobs, stretch assignments and global postings. Based on Les Woller’s highly successful four-step process that has been applied effectively by thousands in businesses, governments, and in personal lives, “The Skill” is a method that fosters increased learning and adaptability. The lessons learned and detailed in this book evolved from Les’ 25 years of experience where he recognized that many struggled with times of change. A significant number operated on “autopilot,” where they behaved in unthinking, habitual ways to problems and opportunities. They quickly fell into comfortable, but ineffective routines. Over the years Les developed a simple methodology to help them switch off autopilot and begin to effectively adapt to situations. This book explains the four steps in the ARTT of “The Skill”, which people need to take - becoming more self-Aware, Reflecting on why they do what they do, Targeting situations and Trying new behaviors in these situations. This book is essential for individuals, teams and organizations who want to enhance their performance, accelerate their promotability and increase their potential. It is an easy to use process for anybody. As the marketplace becomes more competitive and complex, the winners will be those with “the Skill” who can learn and adapt.

Book excerpt: Success in the twenty-first century demands knowledge power – for individuals, organisations, cities, regions and countries. This book offers a map showing the structure of the knowledge space in a contemporary context. The routes beyond traditional disciplines are charted, in part based on the notions of superconcepts and superproblems. There are major implications for the development of education systems, particularly for universities but also for all employers as they seek to ensure that their organisations have the requisite knowledge to meet future challenges. In many instances, radical change is called for. The traditional disciplines and their future development are reviewed and systems concepts are introduced to develop an interdisciplinary framework for the future. The nature of the knowledge core for different kinds of organisation is outlined in the context of development strategies and management capabilities. Super concepts are introduced throughout and through these the reader is introduced to a range of authors who, it is argued, provide the signposts for the way ahead.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in technology have dramatically altered the manner in which organizations function, transforming the way people think about and perform their work. The implications of these trends continue to evolve as emerging innovations adapt to and are adapted by organizations, workers, and other components of the socio-technical systems in which they are embedded. A rigorous consideration of these implications is needed to understand, manage, and drive the reciprocal interplay between technology and the workplace. This edited volume brings together top scholars within and outside of the field of industrial and organizational (I-O) psychology to explore the psychological and organizational effects of contemporary workplace technologies. A special section is included at the end of the book by four experts in the field entitled Reflections and Future Directions.

Download or read book Leading and Managing People in the Dynamic Organization written by Randal D. Day and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current business environment requires that individuals, teams, and organizations are equipped to cope with an unpredictable marketplace and increasing competition. Organizations are forced to be kinetic, organic, and without boundaries if they are to remain successful. Given these environmental and marketplace demands, scholars must rethink the applicability of existing organizational theories and frameworks. In March 2001, a conference was held with the aim of developing and articulating this new model of organizations. Scholars contributed their expertise in areas, such as leadership, human resource management, negotiation and conflict, teams, entrepreneurship, organizational change, power and influence, and diversity. The contributors focused on their own area of expertise and considered how existing theories must be altered to fit a more agile, organizational form. Theoretical and empirical questions were raised, testable hypotheses were developed, and emerging themes were uncovered. The end result of the conference is this volume. It brings together the reflections of a diverse collection of organizational theorists and researchers on the implications of this new business model within their own areas of expertise. The book's goal is to inspire organizational scholars to develop a new theory and produce sound managerial advice for how to build and maintain a successful organization in a dynamic workplace. The chapters include a review of research literature with the highlights and citations that everybody working in a field must know, followed by how the research agenda is affected by the increasingly dynamic marketplace.
