Transforming Work, Second Edition
Author: John D. Adams
Publisher: Cosimo, Inc.
ISBN: 1616405996
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Transforming Work was the first book to explore the concept of transformational change, its principles, dynamics, and technologies. In 1982, many organizational consultants began using the concept of "transformation" because they found it more descriptive of their work than the concept of "development." Changes in organizational life and processes had become more complex, and the outcomes less certain, than the traditional practice of "Organizational Development" could address. This Second Edition of Transforming Work contains the original collection of 17 chapters from these pioneering consultants, plus their updated reflections on their work at the turn of the century. John D. Adams, Ph.D. is a professor, speaker, author, consultant, and seminar leader. He has been at the forefront of the Organization Development and Transformation profession for over 35 years. His early articulation of issues facing organizations has provided a guiding light for the evolution of organization and change management consulting. Adams currently serves as the Chair of the Organizational Systems Ph.D. Program at the Saybrook Graduate School (San Francisco), and is a guest faculty member at The Bainbridge Island Graduate Institute in the MBA in Sustainability program. He also served as editor for two seminal works, Transforming Work and Transforming Leadership, both widely held as defining a new role for the Organization Development profession in a rapidly transforming world.

Book Description
Awaken Your Inner ButterflyThis book is about the transformation process. It is about changing your life. It is about becoming. We all experience pain at least at some points in our life and we all wish to improve our life, to grow and to heal. But how can you heal?Transformation happens whether you are consciously aware of it or not. If you are aware and feel the desire for change, you are at the starting point of a conscious shift in your life. Perhaps you have become aware of something that could improve or you have a general sense of discontent. Perhaps you are in pain. Perhaps you feel that something is missing in your life. Whatever the feeling, you have realized that something could be better. With this belief, you have opened up a space to grow into. It is as if you have suddenly discovered a window, and become aware of the life outside, where new possibilities and adventures await. Whether you are grappling with physical, mental-emotional or spiritual issues, this book will guide you through steps to examine your life, heal wounds and transform situations. And with this you will discover an increase in love and joy in your life experiences.In this book you will find tools to help you expand in to better life experiences and therefore into a better life. This expansion into new life experiences is called transformation. And whether we want it or not, transformation is part of our life. We cannot remain in any set form, because life is always changing. Life moves on and there is always a next step, a new door to open, food to digest, oxygen to breathe, the cocoon to leave, the wings to grow and then take flight as we soar to new heights... Just like the caterpillar, that thought his life was over before he became a butterfly, we often look upon our impending transformations with fear. This book offers tools to help you through life's many transformations, and to consciously take the next step. The Transformation Promise presents you with the understanding and the tools you need to shift, to heal and to transform.Even without doing the exercises this book will guide you to connect consciously with life-force-energy and a continuously increasing love within. It will show you how to use forgiveness and gratitude so you can heal and transform everything you encounter or have encountered.The Transformation Promise will help you to awaken your inner butterfly!

Transforming Learning with New Technologies

Book Description
NOTE: Used books, rentals, and purchases made outside of Pearson If purchasing or renting from companies other than Pearson, the access codes for the Enhanced Pearson eText may not be included, may be incorrect, or may be previously redeemed. Check with the seller before completing your purchase. This package includes the Enhanced Pearson eText and the bound book. For college students who are becoming teachers, developing 21st century technology skills requires a dynamic shift in the way they think about and make use of technology in schools. Learning how to use computer hardware and software is less and less the primary goal. Instead, teachers and students need 21st century learning mindsets in which they are active users and assessors of technology. “21st century learning” means teachers prepare, deliver, and assess lessons differently while students think critically and creatively about the learning they do and the technologies they use. Pre-service teachers are coming to recognize that the 21st century approach to educational technology means understanding what interactive computer technologies can do and how to utilize them to create engaging, memorable learning experiences for students. The authors have written this book to help students to do just that. The Second Edition provides essential coverage of New and Emerging Technologies including 21st century learning, tablet computers and apps, flipped classrooms, microblogging, online learning, virtual schools, digital citizenship, and digital video as well as expanded explorations of educational websites and software, learning games, digital portfolios, assistive technologies, and student participation systems. These additions let students learn about how the latest technologies can be used in schools to create successful learning experiences for K-12 students.
