Action Management
Author: Stephen Redwood
Publisher: Wiley
ISBN: 9780471345473
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Despite all the talk of change management, we somehow failed to recognize that we can't, in any meaningful sense, manage change. We can only manage our actions-hence action management. Action Management presents global experience from PricewaterhouseCoopers to help businesses devise and implement practical action strategies to cope with change and make their corporate transformations successful. Books that promise to help businesses manage change are making promises they can't keep. No one can manage or control business change. The key, instead, is to cope with change and seize the opportunity for success by managing business action. Authors Redwood, Goldwasser, and Street study successful action projects at industries ranging from high technology and financial services to petroleum and health care using an exclusive, in-depth survey conducted by MORI on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers covering 500 multinational businesses in 14 countries on four continents. Included here are the findings of the Global Action Survey for Nynex, Braun, British Airways Engineering, Kawasaki Heavy Industries, LSG/SkyChefs, and many more. Action Management identifies the top 10 challenges to action that companies face such as planning, allocating, leading, and mobilizing for corporate action. Each chapter meets these 10 challenges by offering a host of "Tips" to heed and "Learn by example" sections that demonstrate how companies like Shell Information Systems, Neiman Marcus Group, and Barclaycard all utilize their action paths to get results. The authors leave virtually no questions unanswered and wrap up each chapter with a "Questions and Answers" section. Action Management identifies four action paths: the sprint, the high jump, the decathlon, and the marathon. From short and fast to long and far reaching, each path combines action complexity and duration to meet and cope with change at all levels. The authors take managers through the action process from start to finish and help them determine how the four action paths will help them achieve their immediate and long-term goals. The practical advice and battle-tested strategies found in this valuable book addresses the problems of managers in the real world where standing still means falling behind, and where actions such as acquisitions, expansions, and downsizings can ruin a company if the action itself is not managed properly. The best tools and thinking from PricewaterhouseCoopers, the leading global consultants to companie managing major change Profiles the action plans of Siemens, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Neiman Marcus, and many more. STEPHEN REDWOOD (Tokyo, Japan) is Global Leader of the Organization and Change Strategy Practice at PricewaterhouseCoopers. CHARLES GOLDWASSER (Los Angeles, CA) is a principal consultant. SIMON STREET (London, England)is a director of PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Skill in Action
Author: Michelle Cassandra Johnson
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 1645470482
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
Transform your yoga practice into a force for creating social change with this concise, eloquent manual of social justice tools and skills. Skill in Action asks you to explore the deeply transformational practice of yoga as a way to become an agent of social change and work toward a just world. Through yoga practices and philosophy, this book explores liberation for ourselves and others, while asking us to engage in our own agency—whether that manifests as activism, volunteer work, or changing our relationships with others and ourselves. To provide a strong foundation to begin this work, Michelle Cassandra Johnson clearly defines power and privilege, oppression, liberation, and suffering, and invites you to make changes in your life that promote equality and freedom for all. This revised and expanded edition offers journaling practices and prompts in each chapter; includes more material on how power and privilege inform the yoga industry; explains how to integrate justice into teaching the eight limbs of yoga; and offers ways to support people as they move through their resistance and discomfort in the face of injustice. This edition also offers a fuller look at how the yamas and niyamas—the ethical precepts of yoga—can be studied in order to create a more just world, and it offers more support for yoga teachers seeking to radicalize their yoga.

Eros/Power
Author: Hilary Bradbury
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781495159145
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Can you approach love in a way that opens your eyes rather than blinds you? Can you love passionately, compassionately, and dispassionately all at once? Can you love non-possessively but with commitment? Can you love inquiringly, bringing benefit to your beloveds? What is the relationship between your spiritual life and embodied love? How are we each to engage this great life adventure, in spite of our unique wounds? In this book filled with passion, compassion, and dispassion, Hilary Bradbury and Bill Torbert go way, way out on a limb. Sharing their erotic autobiographies with us - the beautiful and the ugly - starting with the history of their relationship with one another as professor and student, they invite exploration of the secret places where true love gets lived (and gets crushed). They ask us to reflect on our own stories of love and loss as a way to re-imagine the whole world of erotic friendship in more life affirming ways, at home, at play and at work. Coaxing love under the sign of inquiry they suggest that we already know that passionate love can enchant us, exerting a power over us that can feel like the most liberating feeling in the world. Yet it can also lead us into torturous agony. They discuss the exercise of power to love rather than imprison self and other. These pages invite you to invite yourself and your friends further into this living inquiry, inviting love with inquiry, joining Eros with Power.
