12 Steps to Flow
Author: Haydn Shaughessy
Publisher: Flow Academy
ISBN: 9781999590611
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
This book is a must read for anybody in the agile community who is involved in digital transformation or anybody wishing to acquire agile skills to support the change management process. It is particularly suitable for project managers who need to loosen the reins as transformation takes place. The book is a companion book to the authors' widely praised Flow: A Handbook for Change-Makers. Flow takes the principles of the agile manifesto and provides a light framework for teams and enterprises to reach agile objectives: engaging people in creative collaboration, "being agile" rather than just trying to do agile; and creating value. Flow is an extension of the skills offered in scrum and Kanban training, particularly the new Scrum Kanban Flow, but will also appeal to colleagues in digital marketing, innovation and strategy. New ways to work involve everybody in learning new skills. It will enhance the career prospects and business understanding of project managers, scrum masters, agile coaches, business analysts and product owners as well as software engineers and developers.12 Steps to Flow is designed to help people to improve their careers in the agile enterprise. Whereas Flow: A Handbook for Change-Makers explained what needs to change in the modern enterprise particularly in the way IT and software relate to and work with the business, 12 Steps tells you the how. It is literally 12 steps to enterprise agility and personal growth. "In the race for agile transformation somebody has to spell out what the enterprise looks like once many more people are empowered. At last, in Flow we have that document and with it the start of a movement for a new way to work. Shaughnessy and Goulding use very practical examples to show us how self-organising, empowered teams can go about co-designing the best way to get work done. Innovation becomes Flow, the enterprise becomes agile." Peter Hinssen, author The Day After Tomorrow

Recovery
Author: Russell Brand
Publisher: Henry Holt and Company
ISBN: 1250141931
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
A guide to all kinds of addiction from a star who has struggled with heroin, alcohol, sex, fame, food and eBay, that will help addicts and their loved ones make the first steps into recovery “This manual for self-realization comes not from a mountain but from the mud...My qualification is not that I am better than you but I am worse.” —Russell Brand With a rare mix of honesty, humor, and compassion, comedian and movie star Russell Brand mines his own wild story and shares the advice and wisdom he has gained through his fourteen years of recovery. Brand speaks to those suffering along the full spectrum of addiction—from drugs, alcohol, caffeine, and sugar addictions to addictions to work, stress, bad relationships, digital media, and fame. Brand understands that addiction can take many shapes and sizes and how the process of staying clean, sane, and unhooked is a daily activity. He believes that the question is not “Why are you addicted?” but "What pain is your addiction masking? Why are you running—into the wrong job, the wrong life, the wrong person’s arms?" Russell has been in all the twelve-step fellowships going, he’s started his own men’s group, he’s a therapy regular and a practiced yogi—and while he’s worked on this material as part of his comedy and previous bestsellers, he’s never before shared the tools that really took him out of it, that keep him clean and clear. Here he provides not only a recovery plan, but an attempt to make sense of the ailing world.

Book Description
Praise for RIVKA EDERY and TRAUMA AND TRANSFORMATION: A TWELVE STEP GUIDE.How does one formulate a recovery and treatment plan for the profound consequences of surviving trauma? Why should the survivor begin a process of healing with the admission of what happened to them? Is the role of spirituality in trauma recovery necessary in order to heal?In Trauma and Transformation: A Twelve Step Guide, clinical social worker Rivka Edery demystifies the misunderstood resource of spirituality, as it applies to healing from trauma. She provides a guide to a personal spiritual approach that can lead a survivor in a new and powerful direction, perhaps not previously considered. Combining the details of the survivor's inner reality with a step-by-step process of applying spiritual tools to each phase of recovery, Edery demonstrates how such a framework can be highly successful for survivors who seek to lessen their pain and confusion. Edery hypothesizes that for a treatment process to be truly effective, a survivor needs to have special skills in order to overcome their challenges. This is accomplished when a survivor embraces this process. Edery shows you how, step by step.Coming forward with a bold form of guidance, Edery includes specific directions to trauma survivors who wish to make amends for being abusers themselves. Trauma and Transformation: A Twelve Step Guide is the indispensable guide to thoroughly understanding the basic principles of The Twelve Steps as a spiritual program used to treat alcoholics and other individuals with a range of self destructive and addictive tendencies. Offering a chapter-by-chapter synopsis of each of the Twelve Steps of Alcoholic Anonymous, this book offers insight, and guidance for anyone genuinely concerned about how to heal the physical, mental and spiritual wounding caused by traumatic experiences. _______________________________________“Every addict lives a life of trauma. The concept is a natural fit, superb, effective, right on target.” -Ted Rado, L.C.S.W. – R, clinical director of a large residential drug treatment program.“This book is a clear and compelling resource that bridges the gap between Psychotherapy and 12-Step work. The wisdom of this experienced trauma specialist shines through on each page. Without question, it is an indispensable resource for both therapists and clients seeking a renewed model and an essential companion for healing.”-Susan J. Price, M.S.W., Author, The Female Ego
