Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book, Mentoring and Modeling Leadership Character, reflects on leadership character themes the author shared with emerging leaders in various settings. Chapters in the book attempt to capture his intense desire to entrust or pass on to a younger generation of leaders what has been so bountifully given to him through education, ministry assignments, relationships, reading, and life experiences. The book is an attempt to fulfill what the author understands as a key mentoring verse in Scripture: "And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others" (2 Timothy 2:2).The monographs in the book were presented originally in chapel services, commencement addresses, graduation sermons, regional and national conferences, and as a revised section of a chapter in a previous book. They begin to identify some desired outcomes in the lives of the mentored and in the person who is mentoring and modeling leadership character. "Leadership character refers to the qualities that shape the leader's motivations, responses, and moral actions in the home, on the job, and in cultural and faith communities, as expressed through communication, relationships, decision-making, and development of trust" (p. 12).The monographs are grouped thematically to explore: "The Need for Leadership Character";"The Challenges to Leadership Character"; and"The Facets of Leadership Character".The 12 monographs focus on: "Asking the Right Questions";"Pursuing Character Formation"; "Modeling and Mentoring Leadership Character";"Moving from Vision to Action to Results"; "Cultivating the Character Quality of Acceptance";"Watching the Words We Speak";"Dealing with a Sense of Betrayal";"Intentionally Nurturing the Christian Life";"Maturing Spiritually in a Diverse Christian Community";"Embracing Contentment";"Creating Space and Making Room"; and"Staying with It: The 'Grace Gift' of Tenacity".Each chapter concludes with questions for personal and/or group reflection designed to engage the reader to consider and to apply what was read."What is it about us that we want our family, friends, faith community, and new followers of Christ to catch from us?" (p. 127). This book can help to define what those specific qualities are for you and to equip you to pass them along to others.Those who read pre-published versions of the book praised it as: "...a very much needed resource in a world that is increasingly negligent of honesty and integrity. These monographs provide a valuable blueprint for leaders worldwide (cross-culturally, cross-continental, to the church and other industries)." - Filimao M. Chambo, PhD, General Superintendent, Church of the Nazarene"...filled with best practices for ethical leadership to help you represent Christ and your institution for best possible outcomes." - Edna Murugan, PhD, Online Faculty Manager, West Coast University and Ordained Elder, Church of the Nazarene "...realistic and an easy read concerning the proper way to mentor and model leadership character traits for anyone who wants to improve their management skills!" - Margaret Britt, D.B.A. Professor of Human Resource Management, Retired Mount Vernon Nazarene University

This book was released on 2020-01-24 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mentorship is a catalyst capable of unleashing one's potential for discovery, curiosity, and participation in STEMM and subsequently improving the training environment in which that STEMM potential is fostered. Mentoring relationships provide developmental spaces in which students' STEMM skills are honed and pathways into STEMM fields can be discovered. Because mentorship can be so influential in shaping the future STEMM workforce, its occurrence should not be left to chance or idiosyncratic implementation. There is a gap between what we know about effective mentoring and how it is practiced in higher education. The Science of Effective Mentorship in STEMM studies mentoring programs and practices at the undergraduate and graduate levels. It explores the importance of mentorship, the science of mentoring relationships, mentorship of underrepresented students in STEMM, mentorship structures and behaviors, and institutional cultures that support mentorship. This report and its complementary interactive guide present insights on effective programs and practices that can be adopted and adapted by institutions, departments, and individual faculty members.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lauded for his thoughts, Augustine of Hippo (354-430) has influenced virtually every philosopher of the last fifteen hundred years. But his personal character and ministry are even more remarkable, for in a time when most monastery dwellers sought solitude, Augustine was always in the company of friends, visiting disciples and writing mentoring letters to those he knew. Augustine as Mentor is written for modern day pastors and spiritual leaders who want to mentor and equip other evangelical Christians based on proven principles in matters of the heart like integrity, humility, faithfulness, personal holiness, spiritual hunger, and service to others. Author Ed Smither explains, “Augustine has something to offer modern ministers pursuing authenticity and longing to ‘preach what they practice.’ Through his thought, practice, success, and even failures, my hope is that today’s mentors will find hope, inspiration, and practical suggestions for how to mentor an emerging generation of spiritual leaders.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus ministered to many but focused on a few. What makes this strategy so compelling? Because he understood the secret of living forward—spiritual multiplication through intentionally influencing a few people at a time. He knew that by concentrating on a few faithful men and women they would leave behind them a legacy of people whose influence would extend beyond a generation or two; in fact, a legacy that would continue to multiply until he returned. This book is written to stimulate you, whatever your age, gender or position in life, toward a passionate desire to change people who will then change other people who will change other people. The key is not so much how you pour your life into people but that you are a person worth following. God placed you here to invest your life in others. This book will show you how to live and speak truth into the lives of others in a way that will transform them forever. Some of the essential leadership characteristics discussed in this book: -Self-discipline -Encouragement -Gentleness -Confrontation

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few things are more essential to the success of an academic institution than vital faculty members. This book is a rich combination of findings from the literature and practical tools, which together assist academic leaders and faculty in implementing and participating in a successful formal mentoring program that can be used as a strategy for maintaining the vitality of a diverse faculty across all stages of an academic career. In Faculty Success through Mentoring, the authors describe the tangible benefits of formal, traditional mentoring programs, in which mentor-mentee interactions are deliberate, structured, and goal-oriented. They outline the characteristics of effective mentors, mentees, and mentoring programs, and cover other models of mentoring programs, such as group and peer mentoring, which are particularly suited for senior and mid-career faculty. Also included are tools that institutions, mentors, and mentees can use to navigate successfully through the phases of a mentoring relationship. One of the unique features of this book is its explicit attention to the challenges to effective mentoring across genders, ethnicities, and generations. No matter what role one plays in mentoring, this book is an invaluable resource.

This book was released on 2021-02-19 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By necessity, understanding of leadership has been based on who used to be business leaders, namely men. In the last few years, Asian women have been making their mark in corporate America. Although Asian women have become part of the American workforce, and some have achieved spectacular success, there is little discussion about them. Many of these women could be first general immigrants, still balancing the strong pull of two cultures. Even for second or third generation immigrants, Asian cultures can often exert immense pressures. Thus, the achievement of these women deserves far more attention than it has received, and comprehensive research on these advances should be presented. Asian Women in Corporate America: Emerging Research and Opportunities traces the history of Asian women’s presence as executives of major American corporations, presents biographical sketches of a select few, draws upon factors (individual, corporate, and societal) that influenced their journeys, and links to past theories on business leadership. The chapters serve to bring attention to a minority group in leadership and extricates factors that helped in the success of Asian American women in these prominent roles. While highlighting topics such as existing leadership theories, gender and ethnicity in leadership, models of theories regarding Asian women, and their involvement in major corporations, this book is a valuable reference tool for managers, executives, researchers, practitioners, academicians, and students working in fields that include women’s studies/gender studies, business and management, human resources management, management science, and leadership.

In this updated and expanded second edition, the author, John J. Sosik, answers this question by reviewing what is known about the connection between authentic transformational leadership and positive psychology. He summarizes a wealth of leadership knowledge in a unique collection of captivating stories about 25 famous leaders from business, history and pop culture: Aung San Suu Kyi, John F.

Besides generating astonishing results for their organizations, these leaders reaped numerous physical, mental, social and spiritual benefits from their strong character. Their stories teach readers leadership principles that they too can apply to achieve sustainable growth and excellence. The author includes dozens of interesting examples, vivid anecdotes, and clear guidelines to offer readers an in-depth look at how character and virtue forms the moral fiber of authentic transformational leadership. Individuals currently in leadership positions as well as aspiring leaders will find the book’s conversational style, fascinating stories, and practical guidelines both useful and inspiring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For you to successfully go through God’s modelling and mentoring program, I believe you need to first of all ask good focusing questions in order to find out everything you need to know about modelling and mentoring before you can make this intelligent decision. Like Jesus said in Luke 9:62 “No man having put his hand to the plough and desiring to make good work of his ploughing will look back because if he does, will make back with his plough, and the ground he ploughs will no longer be fit to be sown”. Ploughing is a process that breaks up the fallow ground, improves air circulation and enhances the water retention capacity of the soil for optimum seed growth. If the ground is not broken up, seed cannot be sown on it. A heart that is not first ploughed is not fit to receive the good seed of the Kingdom of God.

Book excerpt: "These two remarkable educators not only document the development of their own relationship from mentor/mentee to professional colleagues, they also draw from their own experiences, research studies, and the real voices of countless new teachers to provide an excellent, hands-on guide for perfecting the mentoring role in multicultural settings. Kudos!" —Lisa Delpit, Eminent Scholar, Executive Director Center for Urban Education and Innovation Help new teachers thrive in culturally and linguistically diverse school settings!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the element of leadership that has largely been neglected in the literature: character. Often thought to be a subjective construct, the book demonstrates the concrete behaviors associated with different character dimensions in order to illustrate how these behaviors can be developed, and character strengthened. Based on research involving over 300 senior leaders from different industries, sectors and countries, Crossan, Seijts, and Gandz developed a model for leadership character that focuses on eleven dimensions. The book begins by setting the context for the focus on character in business, asking what character is and whether it can be learned, developed, molded or changed. Next, the book focuses on each dimension of leadership character in turn, exploring its elements and the ways in which it can be applied in a business setting. The book concludes with a summary of the key insights, an exploration of the interactions between the character dimensions, and a call to the reader to reflect on how to develop one’s own and others’ leadership character. Bridging theory and management practice, Developing Leadership Character will interest students and practitioners alike. Readers will benefit not only from a new, robust theoretical framework for leadership character, but will also learn how character can be developed further.
