Book Synopsis Six Lost Leaders by : George W. Liebmann
Download or read book Six Lost Leaders written by George W. Liebmann and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his new book, George W. Liebmann discusses the work of six largely forgotten figures: Octavia Hill, William Glyn-Jones, Mary Richmond, George William Brown, Mary Parker Follet, and Bryan Keith-Lucas. Three are British; three American. Some came from affluent backgrounds; some grew up poor. One was barely educated; another spent eleven years at some of the world's more prestigious institutions of higher learning. What united them all was a shared conviction that citizenship involved more than voting, that society consists of more than the marketplace or political institutions, and that professional values are important for shaping a civil discourse. With a sympathetic eye toward the fulfillment of these common aspirations, Liebmann looks at the national health, social work, housing management, and educational initiatives spearheaded by these powerful figures over the past two centuries. This study is a fascinating retort to our cynical age of political disillusionment and an innovative contribution to social and political history.

Book Synopsis Labour's Lost Leader by : Paul Tyler
Download or read book Labour's Lost Leader written by Paul Tyler and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-06-29 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life story of Will Crooks has a Dickensian resonance. As a working class child, born into abject poverty, he experienced the rigours of Poplar Workhouse and Poor Law school. Nearly forty years later Crooks became Chairman of the Poplar Board of Guardians, the very board that had given him shelter during his challenging early years. Crooks was a member of the Coopers' Union for fifty-five years, and a leading pioneer of the trade union and Labour movement for over thirty. This significant and sometimes controversial figure has been overlooked by modern historians. Here Paul Tyler presents a pioneering political biography of a significant Labour figure at both a local and national level and an important reinterpretation of the early trade union and labour movement from the 1880s to the 1920s.

Book Synopsis From Charity to Social Work by : Elizabeth N. Agnew
Download or read book From Charity to Social Work written by Elizabeth N. Agnew and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary E. Richmond (1861-1928) was a contemporary of Jane Addams and an influential leader in the American charity organization movement. In this biography--the first in-depth study of Richmond's life and work--Elizabeth N. Agnew examines the contributions of this important, if hitherto under-valued, woman to the field of charity and to its development into professional social work. Orphaned at a young age and largely self-educated, Richmond initially entered charity work as a means of self-support, but came to play a vital role in transforming philanthropy--previously seen as a voluntary expression of individual altruism--into a valid, organized profession. Her career took her from charity organization leadership in Baltimore and Philadelphia to an executive position with the prestigious Russell Sage Foundation in New York City. Richmond's progressive civic philosophy of social work was largely informed by the social gospel movement. She strove to find practical applications of the teachings of Christianity in response to the social problems that accompanied rapid industrialization, urbanization, and poverty. At the same time, her tireless efforts and personal example as a woman created an appealing, if ambiguous, path for other professional women. A century later her legacy continues to echo in social work and welfare reform.

Book Synopsis The Common Law Tradition by : George Liebmann
Download or read book The Common Law Tradition written by George Liebmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-04 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book commemorates a place and a time in American law teaching, but more importantly, an outlook: the common law tradition. That outlook was empirical and tolerant. These values were carried into expression by a group of people who were not part of a cult or faction nor ruled by the herd instinct. Now in paperback, The Common Law Tradition is a collective portrait of five scholars who epitomize the tradition.The focus is Chicago in the 1960s. The five figures considered--Edward H. Levi, Harry Kalven, Jr., Karl Llewellyn, Philip Kurland, and Kenneth Culp Davis--did much to broaden the perspectives of the legal academy. Levi made use of sociology, economics, and comparative law. Kalven collaborated with sociologists on the Jury Project and with economists on tax law and auto compensation plans. Llewellyn's commitment to empirical research underpinned his work on the Uniform Commercial Code. Kurland's approach to constitutional law was highlighted by his insistence on the relevance of legal history. Davis was an energetic comparativist in his work on administrative law. What distinguished these Chicagoans is that their work was practical and rooted in the law, and hence yielded concrete applications. The group's diversity, the tolerant atmosphere in which they taught and wrote, and the attachment of its individual members to empirical approaches differentiate them from today's legal scholars and make their ideas of continuing importance.
Book Synopsis The Professional Ideal in the Victorian Novel by : S. Colon
Download or read book The Professional Ideal in the Victorian Novel written by S. Colon and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-05-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book makes the claim that Victorian novels do not simply reflect professional ideology; they also scrutinize its dilemmas, contradictions, and limitations. In this volume, innovative readings of canonical texts like Sybil, Barchester Towers, Romola, and Daniel Deronda accompany groundbreaking work on less familiar texts like Tancred and My Lady Ludlow to illuminate the Victorians' own struggles with the emerging professional ideology. The Victorians' engagement with fundamental ideas of professional identity such as autonomy, meritocracy, and the service ethic reveal professionalism's dual basis in materialist and idealist rationalities.

Book Synopsis Military Leadership and Counterinsurgency by : Victoria Nolan
Download or read book Military Leadership and Counterinsurgency written by Victoria Nolan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-18 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering a unique and original perspective on Britain's 'Small Wars' leadership culture - this title is an essential reading for serving soldiers and scholars of military studies. It is based on original archival research. It offers fascinating survey of counterinsurgency operations - with relevance for today's military and security. Between 1948 and 1960, the British army conducted three important counterinsurgency operations in Malaya, Kenya and Cyprus. During that time, military leaders inspired the evolution of a distinct organisational culture, known as 'small wars culture', which affected learning, discipline and attitudes towards leadership and fellow soldiers. Using a synthesis of organisational theory and archival research, this book explores how military leaders embedded and transmitted this particular military organisational culture within the British army and provides an analysis of leaders' characteristics, their support networks and past experiences. This book will be of interest to counterinsurgency specialists, the British Army and military historians and sociologists, as well as to serving military forces.
Book Synopsis Evaluating the Impact of Leadership Coaching: Balancing Immediate Performance with Longer Term Uncertainties by : Mark Jamieson
Download or read book Evaluating the Impact of Leadership Coaching: Balancing Immediate Performance with Longer Term Uncertainties written by Mark Jamieson and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2023-03-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an essential evaluation model so that leadership coaches and stakeholders can demonstrate the impact of their coaching programmes, challenging current thinking that the return on investment from leadership coaching is too complex to measure. The book is both practical and strategically informative, supporting coaches and organisations to plan confidently for the future as they collaborate over both short- and long-term decisions. The book provides: •Ideas and insights into the dissemination of evaluation data to key strategic destinations •Case studies that show how to evaluate Return on Investment (RoI) for both financial and non-financial targets such as behaviours, potential and wellbeing •Tips, templates and reflective activities Re-imaging evaluation as a strategic opportunity rather than an operational task enables leaders to perform in an agile way that is responsive to local and global uncertainties and business priorities. “It’s a pleasure to find a comprehensive, insightful and evidence-backed approach with practical examples of how [evaluation in coaching] can be done.” David Clutterbuck, Special Ambassador, European Mentoring and Coaching Council “A real aid for leaders, managers and indeed all organizational members.” Professor Peter Stokes, Leicester Castle Business School, De Montfort University, UK “‘Evaluating the Impact of Leadership Coaching’ makes for a great read from two writers interested in helping move the debate from the facile to the factual, and from ego to evidence.” Prof Jonathan Passmore, Senior VP CoachHub and Professor of Coaching and Behavioural Change, Henley Business School, UK Mark Jamieson is an award-winning leadership coach and founder of the GreenWing Project focused on the development of young leaders. His coaching specialisms include youth leadership and women in business leadership.
