Fatty Legs
Author: Christy Jordan-Fenton
Publisher: Annick Press
ISBN: 1554515882
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
Eight-year-old Margaret Pokiak has set her sights on learning to read, even though it means leaving her village in the high Arctic. Faced with unceasing pressure, her father finally agrees to let her make the five-day journey to attend school, but he warns Margaret of the terrors of residential schools. At school Margaret soon encounters the Raven, a black-cloaked nun with a hooked nose and bony fingers that resemble claws. She immediately dislikes the strong-willed young Margaret. Intending to humiliate her, the heartless Raven gives gray stockings to all the girls — all except Margaret, who gets red ones. In an instant Margaret is the laughingstock of the entire school. In the face of such cruelty, Margaret refuses to be intimidated and bravely gets rid of the stockings. Although a sympathetic nun stands up for Margaret, in the end it is this brave young girl who gives the Raven a lesson in the power of human dignity. Complemented by archival photos from Margaret Pokiak-Fenton’s collection and striking artworks from Liz Amini-Holmes, this inspiring first-person account of a plucky girl’s determination to confront her tormentor will linger with young readers.

All the Way to the Top

Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 152451005X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
About the Design of this Book In support of the information contained herein, various references are provided, reflecting the extensiveness of the scholarly research and topic review. Thus, you will observe frequent citations and source identifiers in the following form: (author, year, page). Additionally, as key business and technical concepts are discussedsuch as capital budgeting, analytical marketing, and statistical applicationstutorial information will be provided to assure reader comprehension. And finally, key leadership insights are offered to solidify understanding of character execution of the presented strategies and theory. Author and journalist Ernest Hemingway wrote: Show the readers everything, tell them nothing. Thus, you will note I have liberally used diagrams, charts, and graphs as my intent is to take advantage of Hemingways sentiments to aid you in comprehending the concepts and strategies presented. The first chapter focuses on leadership definitions, theories, and principles. Building on this foundation, discussion of a key piece of corporate and organizational infrastructure (the performance appraisal) follows, which is linked to the theory presented. An overview of corporate structure follows, with emphasis on corporate initiation, implementation, and operation. You are then introduced to a simulated corporation, Summit Consumables Incorporated. Next comes a systematized discussion of inputs, processing, and outputs (IPO). Then I introduce my leadership improvement model (the 5C LIM). This model is applied by a simulation that demonstrates how to handle corporate and business scenarios seen in the examples of six Summit Consumables employees as they respond to performance evaluation results. Bolstered by previously reviewed leadership strategies, the book then offers leadership-oriented approachespurpose, preparation, perception, persuasion, and power (the 5 Ps)for development and delivery of individual presentations, leveraging the previously introduced Summit Consumables employees. The final chapter demonstrates how stages of the 5C LIM may be used as a stand-alone model to circumvent issues and opportunities occurring in the typical world of leaders.
