Many people, especially leaders, are toxic and don’t even know it. Others cannot recognize what a toxic leader is—or whether they are following one. The end result of all this toxicity is pain in life and relationships. This book is about toxic people, toxic behaviors, and ultimately toxic leadership. It is an intense transformational trip into you. It will help you deal with the “whys” behind the ways you think and act. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of human behavior and what drives people. What’s presented is provocative, challenging, revelatory, mind-altering, and downright life-changing. To know the effective side of leadership, you must understand the toxic side as well, including: - Sources of toxicity - Destructive leaders - Bullies - Poisonous parenting - Toxic Masculinity & Toxic Femininity - Leader lusts - Poor followership and much more Why do so many people live in unhealthy ways in their thinking and relationships, lack boundaries, and exude arrogance? Why isn’t anyone holding these people accountable and showing them a better way to lead? Exhaustively researched and displaying penetrating leadership insights, Dr. Rickardo Bodden lays out a training manual that answers these questions and gives vital instruction on building healthy leaders, organizations, employees, parents, and families.

Download or read book Narcissistic Mothers in Modernist Literature written by Marie Géraldine Rademacher and published by transcript Verlag. This book was released on 2019-09-30 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Narcissistic mothers are an important motif in modernist literature. Tracing its appearance in the works of writers such as D.H. Lawrence and Virginia Woolf, this book questions the dichotomous image of either benevolent or suffocating mother, which has pervaded religion, art and literature for centuries. Instead of focusing on the mother-child dyad as characterized primarily by maternal domination and the child' s submission, Marie Géraldine Rademacher insists on the definitional nuances of the term »narcissism« and considers the political and socio-economic context of the time in shaping these women's narcissistic behavior. The study thus inspires a more positive (re)reading of the protagonists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to "The Narcissism Dictionary." this publication helps describe for those involved with or affected by narcissistic personalities the nature of their behavior. Whether you are a mental health professional studying psychology or are just plain curious about what makes us tick: this book should serve as your primary source and quick reference guide on the topic! "It is designed with everyone in mind," says author Rob Hutchings who has compiled over 600 entries based on personal experience and extensive research; each one offers a short and pithy exposition into some facet of narcissism. "I want to tell the truth about it," he explains, having discovered that six of his associates were afflicted themselves which drove him away from complex trauma into an intense investigation into the matter so that others would not suffer from the same fait concerning such an enigmatic condition. The work facilitates insight into relationships on various levels through quick access points coupled with expert referrals while fostering healthier exchanges of ideas as well emotional support between people who may not have had much contact before reading up on their mutual affliction.

Download or read book Curious Lessons in the Museum written by Claire Robins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amongst recent contemporary art and museological publications, there have been relatively few which direct attention to the distinct contributions that twentieth and twenty-first century artists have made to gallery and museum interpretation practices. There are fewer still that recognise the pedagogic potential of interventionist artworks in galleries and museums. This book fills that gap and demonstrates how artists have been making curious but, none-the-less, useful contributions to museum education and curation for some time. Claire Robins investigates in depth the phenomenon of artists' interventions in museums and examines their pedagogic implications. She also brings to light and seeks to resolve many of the contradictions surrounding artists' interventions, where on the one hand contemporary artists have been accused of alienating audiences and, on the other, appear to have played a significant role in orchestrating positive developments to the way that learning is defined and configured in museums. She examines the disruptive and parodic strategies that artists have employed, and argues for that they can be understood as part of a move to re-establish the museum as a discursive forum. This valuable book will be essential reading for students and scholars of museum studies, as well as art and cultural studies.

Download or read book From Narcissism to Nihilism written by Anthony Archdeacon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the myth of Narcissus, which is at once about self-love and self-destruction, desire and death, beauty and pain, became an ambivalent symbol of humanistic endeavour, and articulated the conflicts of early modern authorship. In early modern literature, there were expressions of humanistic self-congratulation that sometimes verged on narcissism, and at the same time expressions of self-doubt and anxiety that verged on nihilism. The themes of self-love and self-negation had a long history in western thought, and this book shows how the medieval treatments of the themes developed into something distinctive in the sixteenth century. The two themes, either individually or combined, encompass such topics as poverty, unrequited love, transgressive sexuality, sexual violence, suicidality, self-worth, authorship, religious penitence, martyrdom, courtly ambition and tyranny. Archdeacon uses over 100 texts from the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries to show how the early modern writer existed in a culture of contrary forces pulling towards either self-affirmation or self-erasure. Writers attempted to negotiate between the polarised extremes of self-love and self-negation, realising that they are fundamental to how we respond to each other, our selves and the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Song's theology is a startling rebuke to Christologies centered either in historical-critical searches or church doctrines. For Song, theology is the biography of God, and God's reign is evident in stories of God's saving presence in Jesus. The reign of God in Jesus "becomes manifest through movements of people to be free from the shackles of the past, to change the status quo of the present, and to have a role to play in the arrival of the future".

Download or read book Jacques Lacan and the Logic of Structure written by Ellie Ragland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lacan postulated that the psyche can be understood by means of certain structures, which control our lives and our desires, and which operate differently at different logical moments or stages of formation. Jacques Lacan and the Logic of Structure offers us a reading of the major concepts of Lacan in terms of his later topological theory and aims to show how this was always a concern for Lacan and not only an issue in the last seminars. Ellie Ragland discusses how various stages of formation can be uncovered topologically within language itself, and operate to place certain properties – fantasy, the drive, jouissance, discourse and ethics in language itself. In this way she explores not only how language actually works in tandem with the properties, but also gives a different idea of what knowledge actually is and what implications that may have for reimagining and reworking differential/diagnostic structures. Jacques Lacan and the Logic of Structure is a compelling exponent of the innovative approaches Lacan takes to rethinking what psychoanalysis is and what it can do to enlighten psychoanalysts and treat patients. It will be essential reading to psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic psychotherapists training graduate students in the fields of film, literary, gender and cultural studies.

Download or read book Art After Appropriation written by John C. Welchman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-01-11 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the first comprehensive account of the discourse of appropriation that dominated the art world in the late 1970s and 1980s, Art After Appropriation suggests a matrix of inflections and refusals around the culture of taking or citation, each chapter loosely correlated with one year of the decade between 1989 and 1999. The opening chapters show how the Second World culture of the USSR gave rise to a new visibility for photography during the dissolution of the Soviet Union around 1989. Welchman examines how genres of ethnography, documentary and travel are crossed with fictive performance and social improvisation in the videos of Steve Fagin. He discusses how hybrid forms of subjectivity are delivered by a new critical narcissism, and how the Korean-American artist, Cody Choi converts diffident gestures of appropriation from the logic of material or stylistic annexation into continuous incorporated events. Art After Appropriation also examines the creation of public art from covert actions and social feedback, and how bodies participate in their own appropriation. Art After Appropriation concludes with the advent of the rainbow net, an imaginary icon that governs the spaces of interactivity, proliferation and media piracy at the end of the millennium. John Welchman is Professor of Modern Art History, Theory and Criticism at the University of California, San Diego. He is the author of Modernism Relocated (1995) and Invisible Colors (1997); and editor of Rethinking Borders (1996), and a forthcoming three-volume anthology of the writings of LA artist MIke Kelley. Welchman has contributed to numerous journals, magazines, museum catalogues and newspapers, including Artforum; New York Times; Los Angeles Times; International Herald Tribune; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Tate Gallery; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Reina Sofia, Madrid; Haus der Kunst, Munich

Download or read book Lucifer Syndrome: Why Malignant Narcissists Are Evil written by Jack Henson and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people are predators. They have been predators all their lives. But when you encounter these people, they will not present themselves as predators. The absolute reverse is the case. They will depict themselves as victims and prey, heroically fighting back against the predators. They will style themselves as martyrs, fixers, healers, gurus, ascended masters, saviors, messiahs. There is no lie they are not prepared to tell. The bigger the lie, the better the lie, as far as they are concerned. Who are these people? They are the people with Lucifer Syndrome. But the world has a different name for them. It calls them malignant narcissists. However, their prototype is Lucifer, who believed himself the brightest and most perfect of all Creation. Lucifer hated and envied God and could not accept God's superiority and brighter light. It drove him mad. It drove him to war. It drove him to his destruction, his immortal mortification in hell. Evil is real, and there is real evil in our midst. Luciferians are walking amongst us, always lying to us, always trying to do us harm. Like Lucifer himself, they adore themselves and think they are God. They want everyone else to kneel to them and worship them, and they are prepared to say and do anything and trample over any and all bodies to get there. M. Scott Peck called them the "People of the Lie", and that's absolutely right. These people are incapable of being truthful. Humanity can now give a name to the worst and most dangerous people on earth – a menace to all decent, moral, ethical people. They are malignant narcissists and they are pure evil. They have no redeeming qualities. None. The human race must learn to identify them and take decisive action against them, to cut out this cancer of evil. The Antichrist does not present himself as a monster. He presents himself as Christ. Never forget that. There are those on YouTube and social media literally preaching that Lucifer is Jesus. Watch out for them. The snake from Eden has come forth again, and its hiss and lies are louder than ever. If we cut off the head of the snake, we can return to Eden. Isn't it time we faced down evil? Edmund Burke said, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." It has always been thus. Adam and Eve were deceived by the shining lies of the first malignant narcissist – Lucifer. We must not be. Like the cherubim with their fiery swords, we must drive out the snakes amongst us, the Luciferian predators, the evil narcissists. It's God's work.
