Cracking the Code to Success

Cracking the Code to Success

How often have you chased the Code to Success? If you are like most people, you have tried Cracking the Code to Success before. From observation, you may also have noted that there is no specific roadmap that guarantees success. We are all endowed with different personalities and come from any number of different backgrounds, so we approach different tasks in our own individual ways. Everyone has experienced some measure of success in life. To move up to a higher level, whether it is for recognition,  financial reasons, or some other definition of success that you choose, there are many qualities of successful people by which you can be guided. While we often hate to ask for help, mentoring is one of the key ingredients to help you crack the code to success much faster than you could on your own.  The Celebrity Experts in this book are happy to mentor you with their expertise based on their proven experiences and core principles.  They have “been there and done that.” Mentors will help you avoid the ruts and potholes and save you “oceans of time” while you are trying to get onto the highway of success. In addition to mentoring, you will need specific knowledge, clarity of goals, perseverance and passion to get you past the “no’s” and naysayers, as well as an action plan and a willingness to help others along the way. To Your Success! Achievement seems to be connected with action. Successful men and women keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit. ~ Conrad Hilton

Management and Leadership for a Sustainable Africa, Volume 1

Management and Leadership for a Sustainable Africa, Volume 1

To effectively deliver sustainable management in practice for Africa, we need responsible leadership. We need to deepen our understanding of sustainability in the unique socio-political and economic context of the continent. The roles of various actors across public, private and non-profit sectors as enablers of sustainable development need to be explored to understand the social, economic and environmental (SEE) trends in Africa and its emerging and developing economies, as well as to chart the way forward for the continent.This first volume focuses on the African understanding of sustainability and its dimensions within its unique historical, social, environmental and political contexts. Through the lens of responsible leadership, the authors reflect on the implementation and extension of the SEE sustainability triad in ways unique to the African continent, especially in relation to the development of well-thought-out, healthy and enduring policy frameworks and the promotion of good governance.The African scope of the book is hinged on collaboration from authors across Africa and the inclusion of case stories from emerging economies in the five African subregions (East, West, North, Central and Southern Africa) within the chapters. The core message is that, to achieve effective and sustainable management and development for Africa, the practice of responsible leadership is critical.Kemi Ogunyemi is Associate Professor of Business Ethics in Lagos Business School at Pan-Atlantic University, Nigeria.Oreva Atanya is Sustainability Centre Manager in Lagos Business School at Pan-Atlantic University, Nigeria.Vanessa Burgal is a Marketing lecturer in Lagos Business School at Pan-Atlantic University, Nigeria.

Toksyczne miejsce pracy. Jak skutecznie walczyć z uprzedzeniami, stereotypami, tyranią czy mobbingiem

Toksyczne miejsce pracy. Jak skutecznie walczyć z uprzedzeniami, stereotypami, tyranią czy mobbingiem

Autorka bestsellera „Szef wymagający i wyrozumiały. Jak skutecznie zarządzać, nie tracąc ludzkiego oblicza” wraca z nowa książką i ze strategią walki z niewłaściwymi zachowaniami w pracy, pokazując, co możemy zrobić – tu i teraz – by wspólnie tworzyć sprawiedliwe i efektywne środowisko pracy.Oto problem, który dotyczy nas wszystkich, wszyscy bowiem – nawet nieświadomie – wykluczamy, nie doceniamy i nie w pełni wykorzystujemy potencjał jednych ludzi, równocześnie angażując, przeszacowując i awansując innych. W naszej codziennej pracy możemy mieć do czynienia z różnymi problemami: stereotypami, uprzedzeniami, nękaniem, dyskryminacją, atakami słownymi czy przemocą fizyczną, które są nie tylko niesprawiedliwe, ale prowadzą też do braku efektywności. Nie można jednak rozwiązać problemów, których nie chcemy dostrzec.Kim Scott pokazuje, jak rozpoznawać niewłaściwe postawy i zachowania, wywołujące rzeczywiste szkody. Pomaga zrozumieć, w jaki sposób mechanizmy te utrwalają nierówność i niesprawiedliwość, a przez to uniemożliwiają twojemu zespołowi i całej firmie odniesienie prawdziwego sukcesu. Przedstawia także odpowiednie strategie i sposoby postępowania dla wszystkich, którzy spotykają się z toksycznymi postawami w pracy, a więc:DLA OFIAR – jak bronić się przed niewłaściwymi zachowaniamiDLA ŚWIADKÓW – co zrobić, by przestać być biernym świadkiem niesprawiedliwości i zacząć działaćDLA SPRAWCÓW – jak dostrzec błędy w swoim zachowaniu, zrozumieć, w jaki sposób może ono negatywnie wpływać na współpracę w zespole i jak to zachowanie zmienićDLA LIDERÓW – w jaki sposób zapobiegać przypadkom niesprawiedliwości w miejscu pracy i co zrobić, gdy – pomimo starań – już do tego dojdzieToksyczne miejsce pracy to kompletna strategia budowy kultury, w której panuje atmosfera szacunku pozwalająca wszystkim efektywnie ze sobą pracować. To niezwykle potrzebny przewodnik po tym, w jaki sposób liderzy i ich zespoły powinni tworzyć miejsce pracy umożliwiające wszystkim pokazanie pełni swoich możliwości i odczuwanie radość ze wspólnego działania.„Kim Scott szczegółowo wyjaśnia, w jaki sposób uprzedzenia, stronniczość i tyranizowanie innych wpływają negatywnie na działalność wszystkich organizacji – nawet w tych, których szefowie mają jak najlepsze intencje – i proponuje praktyczny system walki z tymi trzema zjawiskami. Przyznanie, że nikt z nas – nawet ona sama – nie jest tu bez winy, stanowi istotny punkt wyjścia do trudnej, lecz jakże potrzebnej dyskusji”.– HENRY LOUIS GATES, JR., Uniwersytet Harvarda„Dziękuję opatrzności za Kim Scott i jej szczerość. Kim daje nam nie tylko słowa, ale także odwagę i umiejętność współodczuwania, które są niezbędne, by radzić sobie w przypadku sprzecznych opinii i różnych punktów widzenia. Toksyczne miejsce pracy prowadzi nas za rękę, daje kopa i pokazuje, co i jak należy zrobić”.– BETH COMSTOCK, autorka książki Imagine It Forward, była wiceprezes GE„Jeśli urabiasz ręce po łokcie lub przeciwnie – chowasz głowę w piasek w związku z przypadkami niesprawiedliwości w twoim miejscu pracy (tak, twoim!), to ta książka jest właśnie dla ciebie. Nauczysz się z niej, w jaki sposób rozpoznawać i skutecznie walczyć z uprzedzeniami, niewłaściwym zachowaniem lub dyskryminacją – zjawiskami, które uniemożliwiają twojemu zespołowi i twojej firmie odniesienie prawdziwego sukcesu”.– SARAH KUNST,  dyrektor zarządzający Cleo Capital„W tej niezwykle wnikliwiej i przejmującej książce Kim Scott proponuje odważną wizję: miejsce pracy, w którym szacunek i współpraca wygrywają z dominacją i konformizmem. Toksyczne miejsce pracy stanowi niezwykłe połączenie moralnej odwagi z praktycznymi rozwiązaniami. Powinna znaleźć się na półce – a także w sercu i umyśle – każdego lidera”.– DANIEL H. PINK, autor bestsellerowych książek Kiedy oraz Drive„Wyjątkowo interesująca i cenna… Na podstawie własnych, niezwykle przykrych doświadczeń Kim Scott zbudowała praktyczny model pozwalający uczynić miejsce pracy bardziej sprawiedliwym środowiskiem”– GRETCHEN RUBIN, autorka książki Projekt szczęście Kim Scott jest autorką książki Szef wymagający i wyrozumiały. Jak skutecznie zarządzać, nie tracąc ludzkiego oblicza oraz współzałożycielką firmy Radical Candor. Wspólnie z Trier Bryant założyła również firmę Just Work, której celem jest pomoc organizacjom i klientom indywidualnym w budowie bardziej sprawiedliwych miejsc pracy. Kim przez wiele lat pracowała jako coach przedstawicieli kadry wyższego szczebla w takich firmach jak Dropbox, Qualtrics, Twitter oraz innych przedsiębiorstwach wysokich technologii. Była członkiem kadry Apple University oraz stała na czele zespołów AdSense, You Tube and Double-Click w Google.

Performing Arts Center Management

Performing Arts Center Management

Performing arts centers (PACs) are an integral part of the cultural and creative industries, significantly influencing the cultural, social, and economic vitality of communities around the world. Virtually all PACs are community-based and serve the public interest, whether structured as a public, nonprofit, for-profit, or hybrid entity. However, there is a lack of knowledge about the important community role of performing arts centers, especially those that mainly host and present work produced by other arts organizations. This gap is startling, given the ubiquitous presence of PACs in urban centers, small communities, as well as colleges and universities. This co-edited reference book provides valuable information at the intersection of theory and practice in the professional field of executive leadership of performing arts centers. Drawing on the expertise of leading academics, consultants, and executives, this book focuses on institutions and practices in the United States, and is contextualized within additional fields such as cultural planning, urban revitalization, and economic development. Performing Arts Center Management aims to provide valuable theoretical, conceptual, empirical, and practice-based information to current and future leaders in creative and cultural industries management. It serves as a unique reference for researchers, university students, civic leaders, urban planners, public venue managers, and arts administrators aspiring to improve or advance their work in successfully managing performing arts centers.

The Friction Project

The Friction Project

The definitive guide to eliminating the forces that make it harder, more complicated, or downright impossible to get things done in organizations. Find out why Adam Grant says "If every leader took the ideas in this book seriously, the world would be a less miserable, more productive place."Every organization is plagued by destructive friction. Yet some forms of friction are incredibly useful, and leaders who attempt to improve workplace efficiency often make things even worse. Drawing from seven years of hands-on research, The Friction Project by bestselling authors Robert I. Sutton and Huggy Rao teaches readers how to become “friction fixers.”Sutton and Rao kick off the book by unpacking how skilled friction fixers think and act like trustees of others’ time. They provide friction forensics to help readers identify where to avert and repair bad organizational friction and where to maintain and inject good friction. Then their help pyramid shows how friction fixers do their work, from reframing friction troubles they can’t fix right now, so they feel less threatening, to designing and repairing organizations. The heart of the book digs into the causes and solutions for five of the most common and damaging friction troubles: oblivious leaders, addition sickness, broken connections, jargon monoxide, and fast and frenzied people and teams.Sound familiar? Sutton and Rao are here to help. They wrap things up with lessons for leading your own friction project, including linking little things to big things; the power of civility, caring, and love for propelling designs and repairs; and embracing the mess that is an inevitable part of the process (while still trying to clean it up).

Organisationskultur och ledning

Organisationskultur och ledning

Organisationskultur är ett svårt område. Den här boken vill bidra till ett mer sensitivt och reflekterande synsätt på organisation och ledarskap. Att försöka tolka kulturen är ett av de bästa sätten att förstå aspekter som rör företag och andra organisationer, men det är ett sätt vars potential endast till en mindre del utnyttjats. Organisationskultur och ledning är en bred och delvis kritisk introduktion till området. Ett syfte är att visa kulturperspektivets användbarhet inom ett brett spektrum av organisations-, lednings- och arbetslivsfält. Det är således mer än särskilda "företagskulturer" som behandlas. Författaren summerar en omfattande forskning kring organisationskultur och presenterar även nya idéer kring metaforer, ledarskap, makt, kön och förändringar i organisationer utifrån olika kulturperspektiv. Genomgående presenteras praktiska exempel på hur kulturtänkande kan användas i och appliceras på organisationsteori och i lednings- och organisationssammanhang. Boken är tolkande och reflekterande och fokuserar på att läsaren ska lära sig hantera komplexa situationer och förstå organisationskultur. Denna tredje upplaga är kraftigt omarbetad och innehåller bl.a. nya kapitel och avsnitt om identitet i organisationer och om värdegrunder. Sagt om boken "Mats Alvessons bok avviker på ett befriande sätt från den rad av tvärsäkra och ytliga managementböcker som kommer allt tätare. Mats ger en allsidig och sunt kritisk genomgång av företagskultur och förutsättningarna för att leda med hjälp av en medvetet skapad företagskultur. På så sätt ges läsaren en möjlighet att både förstå, bilda sig en egen uppfattning och framförallt, bädda för ett mer genomtänkt förändringsarbete i den egna organisationen." Jörgen Hansson, konsult och författare Om författarna Professor Mats Alvesson är organisations- och ledningsforskare vid Lunds universitet samt vid University of Queensland, Australien. Han har utgivit ett trettiotal böcker om ledning, organisation och kvalitativ metod, bl.a. Ledarskap och Förändringsarbete i organisationer (båda Liber, med Stefan Sveningsson) och The Triumph of Emptiness (Oxford University Press). Han är en av Sveriges mest citerade samhällsvetare och bidrar också till samhällsdebatten.

Developing a Sustainability Mindset in Management Education

Developing a Sustainability Mindset in Management Education

With an expanding awareness of the challenges of sustainability, featured more in the daily news than in higher education textbooks, scholars and faculty have been called to connect their syllabi to the ‘real world’. This book doesn’t just offer the ‘why’; it offers the ‘how’ through presenting the definition and model of the ‘sustainability mindset’ to help educators frame curricula to facilitate broad and deep systemic learning among current and future leaders. A sustainability mindset is intended to help individuals analyze complex management challenges and generate truly innovative solutions. The sustainability mindset breaks away from traditional management disciplinary silos by integrating management ethics, entrepreneurship, environmental studies, systems thinking, self-awareness and spirituality within the dimensional contexts of thinking (knowledge), being (values) and doing (competency). This book is aimed at professors, faculty members, instructors, teaching assistants, researchers and doctoral students in higher learning management education programs. Chapter contributors are all teaching professionals from programs around the world, who have been doing research and creating curricula, assessments, tools, and more for the students in their classes, and the book will be globally applicable.
