Book Synopsis Renaissance Leadership by : Stephen Murgatroyd
Download or read book Renaissance Leadership written by Stephen Murgatroyd and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Innovation Expedition describes Renaissance Leaders as high integrity individuals with sensitive self-awareness and a passion both for driving high performance in their organizations and for helping to make their communities and the world a better place. These leaders have a sense of history and an unusual capacity for viewing the world holistically, for practicing systems thinking, for injecting a global and a future's perspective into present challenges, for honouring diversity, and for drawing on ideas and best practices from diverse disciplines and economic sectors. They also demonstrate an ability to take the input from these various disciplines, synthesize it and integrate it for application to a specific complex task. Finally, they have mastered the art of demonstrating grace under pressure, and of inspiring others to have the courage to collaborate and innovate in order to dramatically improve organizational performance.
Book Synopsis Dare to Become A Renaissance Leader by : Victor L Vogel
Download or read book Dare to Become A Renaissance Leader written by Victor L Vogel and published by Victor L Vogel. This book was released on 2023-08-15 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research companies like Gallup, Pew Research, and DDI indicate a leadership decline, resulting in less employee engagement impacting business. Before the Pandemic in 2020, there was a noticeable decline in leadership effectiveness. This has been, and is, happening even though we are increasingly spending billions of dollars annually on leadership development. What is causing this inversion of cost with leadership decline? In studying this problem, it jumped out at me that we have spent excessive time and money teaching people leadership skills. We have provided them with in-depth descriptions of the skills. What we haven't done is introduce a leader to developing themselves so they can assimilate the needed skills, internalize them and personalize them to fit an individual leader so they can feel comfortable applying the skills effectively to change others' behaviors, build a trusting relationship which will instill motivation in others to follow that leader. Shirzad Chemine, in his work on Positive Intelligence, showed how we can exercise our brain to minimize the part of our brain that causes us to judge and instills fear, anxiety, criticism, logic, flight, or fight, the side of our brain designed to cause us to hesitate and resist change. Emotional Intelligence, expanded by Daniel Goleman, showed that people respond better to empathy and compassion than judgment and harshness, which fits perfectly with Positive Intelligence research. What we need to do is create a new paradigm of leadership development. One that integrates Interpersonal Communication, Positive Intelligence, and Emotional Intelligence and creates a "Renaissance" Leader. A program focused on developing the leader themselves first so they can then assimilate leadership skills and apply them more effectively to influence employees and build trusting relationships and spur motivation. This book is a start in that direction. Are you ready to take it further?

Book Synopsis Renaissance Leadership Manifesto by :
Download or read book Renaissance Leadership Manifesto written by and published by Four Rivers Design. This book was released on 2018-12-31 with total page 162 pages.

It provides spiritual accountability to pastors and ministry leaders as well as relief and assistance to widows and orphans in needy parts of the world. The Renaissance Leadership Manifesto is a compilation of real-world insight from influencers in the network, covering topics fleaders face every day in their businesses, ministries and spheres of influence.

As Bishop Grier writes, leadership is not an easy calling, but, "You are not alone. We are on this path with you. God is beside you in all things, and He will continually bring to fruition His purposes in us, until that day that He comes again to claim us as His own."
Book Synopsis Leadership in The Digital Age by : Niklas Hageback
Download or read book Leadership in The Digital Age written by Niklas Hageback and published by Business Expert Press. This book was released on 2020-10-08 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book for anyone intrigued by the complexities of digital leadership that require a capability to constantly balance the routines of everyday business with the ability to innovate. Finding the appropriate mix between the dichotomy stability—flexibility has been a delicate task that few, if any, corporations have properly managed to overcome. Why is that? This conundrum becomes acute as businesses embark on digital transformations, an often-painful venture highlighting the deficiencies of traditional management styles but also agile methodologies. They deliver results that are far below initial expectations, provide half-baked digital solutions where potential commercial gains are poorly captured and leveraged, and, far too often, not even identified. Mismatches between technologies, the man-machine (dis)connect, or organizational dysfunctionality are typically identified as root causes, but beneath them lurks a more scathing problem: an inadequate leadership. This inadequacy rests on a lack of holistic insights backed by well-rounded skills and sets of knowledge that are required to understand all aspects of a digital transformation, as well as its participants from employees to customers. Thus, what is needed is a modern take of the Renaissance Man.
Book Synopsis Maya Intellectual Renaissance by : Victor D. Montejo
Download or read book Maya Intellectual Renaissance written by Victor D. Montejo and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Mayan leaders protested the celebration of the Quincentenary of the "discovery" of America and joined with other indigenous groups in the Americas to proclaim an alternate celebration of 500 years of resistance, they rose to national prominence in Guatemala. This was possible in part because of the cultural, political, economic, and religious revitalization that occurred in Mayan communities in the later half of the twentieth century. Another result of the revitalization was Mayan students' enrollment in graduate programs in order to reclaim the intellectual history of the brilliant Mayan past. Victor Montejo was one of those students. This is the first book to be published outside of Guatemala where a Mayan writer other than Rigoberta Menchu discusses the history and problems of the country. It collects essays Montejo has written over the past ten years that address three critical issues facing Mayan peoples today: identity, representation, and Mayan leadership. Montejo is deeply invested in furthering the discussion of the effectiveness of Mayan leadership because he believes that self-evaluation is necessary for the movement to advance. He also criticizes the racist treatment that Mayans experience, and advocates for the construction of a more pluralistic Guatemala that recognizes cultural diversity and abandons assimilation. This volume maps a new political alternative for the future of the movement that promotes inter-ethnic collaboration alongside a reverence for Mayan culture.
Book Synopsis Missional Renaissance by : Reggie McNeal
Download or read book Missional Renaissance written by Reggie McNeal and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2009-02-03 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reggie McNeal's bestseller The Present Future is the definitive work on the "missional movement," i.e., the widespread movement among Protestant churches to be less inwardly focused and more oriented toward the culture and community around them. In that book he asked the tough questions that churches needed to entertain to begin to think about who they are and what they are doing; in Missional Renaissance, he shows them the three significant shifts in their thinking and behavior that they need to make that will allow leaders to chart a course toward being missional: (1) from an internal to an external focus, ending the church as exclusive social club model; (2) from running programs and ministries to developing people as its core activity; and (3) from professional leadership to leadership that is shared by everyone in the community. With in-depth discussions of the "what" and the "how" of transitioning to being a missional church, readers will be equipped to move into what McNeal sees as the most viable future for Christianity. For all those thousands of churches who are asking about what to do next after reading The Present Future, Missional Renaissance will provide the answer.

Book Synopsis Perspectives on Thought Leadership for Africaís Renewal by : Kondlo, Kwandiwe

This book was released on 2014-05-05 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines perspectives of emerging and established African scholars on what one could describe as the debate on leadership and the articulation of the life of the mind in Africa's socio-economic, political and cultural life from the time of independence to date. The papers contained in the book cover the following thematic areas: Alternative Leadership Paradigm for Africa's Advancement; African Perspectives on Globalisation and international relations; Pan-Africanism and the African Renaissance; Scientific, Technological and Cultural Dimensions of African Development. The first section deals with alternative leadership paradigms for Africa's advancement. It also debates the 'thin line' separating management studies from leadership studies and untangles the hermeneutic complexities in the term 'leadership'. Section two examines among other things, the crucial challenge of globalisation and public ethics and others African perspectives. The section also interrogates the current complexities and credibility deficits in the global governance of trade and towards the end engages philosophical questions about conscience and consciousness in African development and progress. The debates in section three continue to section four and focus on the overall issues of language and liberation, the significance of Multi-, Inter and Trans-Disciplinary Approaches in the analysis of the African continent, appropriate indigenous paradigms for promoting the African renaissance as well as a series of debates on the meaning and prospects of regional integration in Africa's renewal. This provides just a snapshot of a very wide ranging and interesting debate contained in the publication.

Book Synopsis Who's Running This Town, Anyway? by : John C. Buechner Ph. D.
Download or read book Who's Running This Town, Anyway? written by John C. Buechner Ph. D. and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-09 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This little book does not prophesize that the sky is falling on cities and towns. It does not suggest that officeholders lack commitment and dedication. It is argued here that city and town councils are generally locked into governance structures that restrict them from being more effective. Councils are bombarded with demands, requests, and even threats, and often are unable to satisfy all constituencies. The fundamental premise is this: For councils to fulfill their roles more effectively requires a transformation not of the structure of governance but of a government's culture, using different and possibly new leadership styles. Councils must change rigid habits, arrangements, and thoughts and adopt an outside-in culture, one that discards unnecessary processes, procedures, and structures; allows extensive probing and questioning of premises and arrangements; and avoids the status quo in making decisions. Councils in large and small towns must comprehend the changing nature of society beyond their city limits and how these changes influence the behavior of citizens. An outside-in culture suggests the need to elect and appoint people who exhibit renaissance leadership skills and talents.
Book Synopsis The Global Entrepreneur by : Ervin Williams

Book excerpt: WEALTH CREATING BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES WHO ARE GLOBAL ENTREPRENEURS? There is a new breed of entrepreneurs today - the Global Entrepreneur. They are different from past entrepreneurs; they are completely wired for Information Age businesses, they know how to harness knowledge and technology, and frequently engage a network of global business partners to help operate their international ventures. The Global Entrepreneur understands that the soft assets of knowledge and technology are greater creators of wealth than hard assets such as land, equipment, factories and mines. They realize the management models and organizational paradigms of the Industrial Era are giving way to a fresh appreciation of virtualization, strategic alliances, empowerment of individuals, and a new understanding that plentitude creates wealth. What is really new is that Global Entrepreneurs frequently use virtual organizations, virtual products, and micro-virtual manufacturing processes to develop efficient global ventures. They are strongly motivated towards creating a global enterprise for generating substantial personal wealth. WHO SHOULD BUY THIS BOOK? There are three individual groups who will substantially benefit from reading this book. Nascent Entrepreneurs. These are individuals who are thinking about owning a business, but haven't taken the leap. This book provides a roadmap and shows you the essential elements for starting a successful business. Small Business Owners. Small and medium enterprises are finding it increasingly difficult to achieve new growth in today's economic environment. This book shows business owners how to explore and find extraordinary growth in developing fast-growing foreign markets. Students. College students in the 1600 U.S. institutions that teach entrepreneurship can use this book to better understand the dynamic contribution of entrepreneurship to world economic growth and wealth creation. WHAT IS THE ROUTE FOR WEALTH CREATION? Very few people become wealthy working for others. But don't quit your job! Instead, seek the most challenging position possible involving creativity, unique knowledge, and advance technology. Master that position in every possible dimension and, when appropriate, establish it as the basis of your new wealth-generating venture.
