Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you “leadership material?” More importantly, do others perceive you to be? Sylvia Ann Hewlett, a noted expert on workplace power and influence, shows you how to identify and embody the Executive Presence (EP) that you need to succeed. You can have the experience and qualifications of a leader, but without executive presence, you won't advance. EP is an amalgam of qualities that true leaders exude, a presence that telegraphs you're in charge or deserve to be. Articulating those qualities isn't easy, however. Based on a nationwide survey of college graduates working across a range of sectors and occupations, Sylvia Hewlett and the Center for Talent Innovation discovered that EP is a dynamic, cohesive mix of appearance, communication, and gravitas. While these elements are not equal, to have true EP, you must know how to use all of them to your advantage. Filled with eye-opening insights, analysis, and practical advice for both men and women, mixed with illustrative examples from executives learning to use the EP, Executive Presence will help you make the leap from working like an executive to feeling like an executive.

Köstenberger moves through Christian virtues chapter by chapter, outlining the Bible's teaching and showing how Christ-dependent excellence in each area will have a profound impact on one's ministry and scholarship.

This unique book is an important character check for all Christians engaged in teaching and ministry, and especially for those in training. Köstenberger's thoughtful volume will be a valuable touchstone for readers, for one's character is a critical matter in both scholarship and ministry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Principle of Excellence, Nimi Wariboko deconstructs the traditional, depoliticized meaning of virtue, providing a thorough reading of the debates, conceptual struggles, and ambiguities used by virtue ethicists to produce today's conception of excellence. He presents a new meaning of excellence, explaining the ways communities can use excellence as the organizing principle for their political and economic development, and exploring how large-scale modern societies can be better administered in environments characterized by contingency and possibilities. Also examined within this book is the connection between excellence and creativity. If excellence is the drive toward actualization of potentialities for all human beings, it follows that human creativity is a form of that drive. Wariboko reveals the mystery at work in both personal and communal creative functions, showing how the creative functions of human life can express the unconditional eras of divine creativity. The Principle of Excellence brings afresh and provocative perspective to some of philosophy and theology's oldest concerns; truth, beauty, justice, love, hope, and the eschatological New Creation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book discusses concepts of constructive workplace dissent, psychological safety and joy at work. These concepts are supported by real workplace voices from Christian leaders who are trailblazing transformational leadership in their lives. Certain parts of the book use illustrations to emphasize key concepts covered herein. There is frequently a gap between the need for feedback and how to foster it constructively. Ideas make organizations thrive, but employees are frequently unable to communicate these ideas in ways that the leadership finds palatable. Management and leadership need to acquire the requisite skills to facilitate the entrenchment of constructive workplace criticism in their organizational cultures. The book proposes an EHIP framework leadership model for flourishing employee talents, whilst uncovering issues of Emotional well-being, Goodwill dissent and Human flourishing (EGH) in the workplace. Leadership models such as calling-based leadership, incarnational leadership, contextual leadership, shalom leadership, servant leadership, appreciative inquiry, and assets-based community development are covered, all anchored in the biblical verse Philippians 4: 8 – 9.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for students who want to excel academically. The guideposts and principles contained in this book will show you why and how you will become a high-flying student. I managed the local library of Our Lady of Fatima Cathedral Catholic Church Kano for over four years as an unqualified librarian and I see different students preparing for different exams in a mediocre way. What is most shocking here is that; most of these students are mediocre students due to the fact that they lack the right approach to learning, studying and preparations required for academic excellence rather than the mere exertion of studies. The principles in this book are no respecter of persons, age, gender, race, background or your location. The results are the same to whoever would apply them. It contains the distilled essence of all that you need to know and do in your academic journey to excellence. This 21---Days course has SIX stages. Each Days message/material is divided into different sub-sections dealing with one central topic literally and in a juxtapositions context. Consequently, the reader is allowed to exercise his/her power of association and observation of ideas presented in connection to the other sub-sections and signposts illustrated in the book with the application exercises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, medical schools and academic campuses were largely separate in Texas. Though new medical technologies and drugs—conceivably, even a vaccine instrumental in the prevention of a pandemic—might be developed on an academic campus such as the University of Texas at Austin, there was no co-located medical school with which to collaborate. Faculty members were left to seek experts on distant campuses. That all changed on May 3, 2012, when the UT System Board of Regents voted to create the Dell Medical School in Austin. This book tells in detail and for the first time the story of how this change came about: how dedicated administrators, alumni, business leaders, community organizers, doctors, legislators, professors, and researchers joined forces, overcame considerable resistance, and raised the funds to build a new medical school without any direct state monies. Funding was secured in large part by the unique willingness of the local community to tax itself to pay for the financial operations of the school. Kenneth I. Shine and Amy Shaw Thomas, who witnessed this process from their unique vantages as past and present vice chancellors for health affairs in the University of Texas System, offer a working model that will enable other leaders to more effectively seek solutions, avoid pitfalls, and build for the future.

Book excerpt: Excellence Through Equity is an inspiring look at how real-world educators are creating schools where all students are able to thrive. In these schools, educators understand that equity is not about treating all children the same. They are deeply committed to ensuring that each student receives what he or she individually needs to develop their full potential and succeed. To help educators with what can at times be a difficult and challenging journey, Blankstein and Noguera frame the book with five guiding principles of Courageous Leadership: Getting to your core Making organizational meaning Ensuring constancy and consistency of purpose Facing the facts and your fears Building sustainable relationships. They further emphasize that the practices are grounded in three important areas of research that are too often disregarded: (1) child development, (2) neuroscience, and (3) environmental influences on child development and learning. You'll hear from Carol Corbett Burris, Michael Fullan, Marcus J. Newsome, Paul Reville, Susan Szachowicz, and other bold practitioners and visionary thinkers who share compelling and actionable ideas, strategies, and experiences for closing the achievement gap in your classrooms and school. Ensuring that all students receive an education that cultivates their talents and potential is in all our common interest. As Andy Hargreaves writes in the coda: "The opportunity for all Americans is to articulate and believe in an inspiring vision of educational change that is about what the next generation of America and Americans should become, not about a target or ranking that the nation should attain." From the Foreword by Archbishop Desmond Tutu: "Letting go of a system of winners and losers in favor of what is proposed in this book is a courageous leap forward that we all must take together. Let this bold, practical book be a guide; and may you travel into this new exciting vista, in which every child can succeed."

Book excerpt: This book focuses on emotional intelligence, which has emerged as a factor in superior on-the-job performance and ability to lead an effective life. Based on an emerging country, namely India, the book deviates from traditional approaches by focusing on non-cognitive rather than cognitive skills to explain and predict performance and achievements. It finds that those with strong intrinsic non-cognitive skills, like trustworthiness, conscientiousness, adaptability, initiative and commitment have a better chance of becoming effective leaders with enhanced service-orientation, empathy and conflict management skills –traits desired by any organization striving for efficiency. It also demonstrates that while such imponderable, intrinsic skills matter, they cannot replace discernible psycho-social factors and hence, effective hiring strategies must focus on behavioural competence along with cognitive skills. The book also discusses organizations’ desire to ensure a working environment that is vibrant and positive in an attempt to prevent unconstructive or disruptive factors and to ensure improved performances over time. The book is a valuable resource for corporate personnel, as well as for researchers and practitioners in the field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I want to call it a cry of the heart, but it’s more like a cry of the brain, a calm and erudite one.” —Peggy Noonan, The Wall Street Journal The former dean of Yale Law School argues that the feverish egalitarianism gripping college campuses today is a threat to our democracy. College education is under attack from all sides these days. Most of the handwringing—over free speech, safe zones, trigger warnings, and the babying of students—has focused on the excesses of political correctness. That may be true, but as Anthony Kronman shows, it’s not the real problem. “Necessary, humane, and brave” (Bret Stephens, The New York Times), The Assault on American Excellence makes the case that the boundless impulse for democratic equality gripping college campuses today is a threat to institutions whose job is to prepare citizens to live in a vibrant democracy. Three centuries ago, the founders of our nation saw that for this country to have a robust government, it must have citizens trained to have tough skins, to make up their own minds, and to win arguments not on the basis of emotion but because their side is closer to the truth. Without that, Americans would risk electing demagogues. Kronman is the first to tie today’s campus clashes to the history of American values, drawing on luminaries like Alexis de Tocqueville and John Adams to argue that our modern controversies threaten the best of our intellectual traditions. His tone is warm and wise, that of an educator who has devoted his life to helping students be capable of living up to the demands of a free society—and to do so, they must first be tested in a system that isn’t focused on sympathy at the expense of rigor and that values excellence above all.

This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prof. G. Ramachandran (1936-2020) taught physics to the students pursuing M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees at the Department of Studies in Physics, Manasagangotri, University of Mysore, as a Professor from 1973 till 1996, when he formally retired. Later, he continued working in the department till 2001 as a CSIR Emeritus Scientist. During this period, more than 20 batches of post graduate students learnt the beauty of theoretical physics listening to his course of lectures. Under his supervision more than a dozen students earned the PhD degree, drawing great appreciation from the thesis examiners. He moved to Bengaluru in 2001 and worked as a Visiting Professor at Indian Institute of Astrophysics till 2007. Thereafter, he continued to mentor several students in their research work. Prof. Ramachandran – GR to all his students- passed away on April 9, 2020. This book is a tribute to GR by his students, colleagues and admirers who were inspired by his lectures, research work, devotion to physics and, above all, his simple lifestyle. The book is a collection of articles which give us a glimpse of GR’s academics at IMSc (Chennai), ISI (Kolkata), IISc (Bengaluru), University of Mysore and IIA (Bengaluru).
