"The only thing that is constant is change," the Greek philosopher Heraclitus once said. Change is not only essential; it is inevitable. It will happen, whether we like it or not. While change is what happens around us, Dr. Chris Bowen writes, transition is what happens in us as we respond to that change. Writing with transparency and insight, Dr. Bowen tells the story of his own transition from a successful pastor to a sought-after entrepreneur and transitional leader. Throughout, he weaves principles he learned--sometimes the hard way--as he sought to reconcile the stirrings he was feeling in his heart with the success and fulfillment he was experiencing in his career and ministry. Ultimately, his journey led him to find and prepare a successor, put in place an exit plan and take a leap of faith that would launch him into his destiny and change his life forever. Dr. Bowen challenges readers to evaluate their lives and take big risks, but he also provides them with a practical roadmap for achieving their dreams as they pursue their deepest passions.

"We need to recognize that what we have been doing for decades to ceate good leaders has failed and we must move in a different direction where we stop trying to make everyone into a leader. Instead, we must find ways to identify and develop natural-born leaders who possess innate leadership talent"--Jacket.

The challenge of school improvement for failing schools is a complex and much debated issue. This text attempts to help those working in, or working with, failing schools and aims to contradict the notion that there are no quick fixes for schools in difficulty. The issue of failing schools is looked at from a number of viewpoints. Section one contains policy perspectives; section two contains three schools' perspectives; section three contains chapters written by three external facilitators; section four addresses the issues from three prominant school effectiveness researchers; and section five gives international perspectives from the co-ordinator of the OECD Combating School Failure initiative.

Think there's no 'I' in team'? There is. Believe that together everyone achieves more? They don't. Asked to give it 110 per cent? You can't. Think employees are your greatest asset? They ain't. Got an open-door policy? For goodness sake — shut it! Whether you're a perpetrator or a casualty of cringe-worthy corporate clichés (or both), Corporate Punishment will challenge the way you think about the world of business and the mind-numbing management mottos that have underpinned it for decades. From teams and leadership to workplace culture and customer service, James Adonis smashes to pieces some of the most deeply entrenched business philosophies, offering in their place a progressive new thought process that's light on rhetoric and boring theory, but heavy on practicality and imagination. This book is a protest, a movement, a changing of the management guard — it is the breath of fresh air every modern business needs and a long overdue break from the hot air that most are forced to endure.
