Everything rises and falls on influence.Nothing will impact your professional and personal life more than your ability to influence others. The more influence you have, the more options you will have. Life is always better with more options.Are you looking for transformation in your life, your team, your organization? Do you want better results? Do you want to build a team that works for each other and with each other?In Defining Influence, everyone at any level within any industry will absolutely learn how to increase their influence. You will learn the foundational principles of leadership (influence) which will help you understand the importance of the following five questions.1.Why do we influence? - Our character determines why we influence. Who we are on the inside is what matters. Do we manipulate or motivate? It's all about intent.2.How do we influence? - Our character, combined with our competency, determines how we influence. Who we are and what we know combine to create our unique style of influence which determines our methods of influence.3.Where do we influence? - Our passion and purpose determine where we have the greatest influence. What motivates and inspires us gives us the energy and authenticity to motivate and inspire others.4.Who do we influence? - We influence those who buy-in to us. Only those valuing and seeking what we value and seek will volunteer to follow us. They give us or deny us permission to influence them based on how well we have developed our character and competency.5.When do we influence? - We influence others when they want our influence. We choose when others influence us. Everyone else has the same choice. They decide when to accept or reject our influence. We only influence others when they want to change.The first three questions are about the choices we make as we lead (influence) ourselves and others. The last two questions deal more with the choices others will make as they decide first, if they will follow us, and second, when they will follow us. They will base their choices on who we are and what we know.Asking these questions is important. Knowing the answers is more important. But, taking action based on the answers is most important.Collectively, the answers to these questions determine our leadership style and our level of influence (leadership).

Poverty and crime have reached crisis levels across the United States. Police brutality triggers protests, sparking riots that spawn even more violence. America is on the verge of full-blown race and class warfare. Enter Operation Fresh Start, the brainchild of five men backed by very rich, very powerful individuals operating from the shadows. The plan is simple and straightforward, and its aim is to curb-if not solve-the twin demons of poverty and crime: anyone between the ages of fifteen and forty will receive $15,000...provided they're willing to undergo voluntary sterilization. Tyler Marshall IV, a brilliant attorney with a drinking problem and money issues, is tapped to head the operation. It's a great opportunity for him to both alleviate his need for cash and thumb his nose at a disapproving father. But not everyone shares Marshall's enthusiasm for Operation Fresh Start-including his law firm's devoutly Catholic office manager and a powerful, sinister preacher. As intrigue and political posturing give way to suicide and murder, Marshall has to wonder if he's made the right choice. Bold and controversial, Spare the Child offers a glimpse of a brave new world for those willing to step into the unknown.
"When you do the common things in life in an uncommon way, you will command the attention of the world." George Washington CarverMack has written the book he wishes someone would have given him in 1988 when he was an entry-level machine operator in a manufacturing plant as he started his career at the bottom on the front lines. He feels it would have changed his life then.

However, not everyone has a desire to do it.Blue-Collar Leadership(R) was written specifically for developing those in entry-level positions who are working on the front lines of blue-collar organizations.

The Engagement Dilemma: Employee Engagement Starts with Engaged LeadershipAs a leader, your biggest frustration is likely disengaged team members. According to Gallup, only 34% of U.S. workers are engaged. Employee engagement is not only the key to increasing productivity, profitability, and teamwork, but it's also the key to reducing turnover, costs, and frustrations for organizational leaders.Management is about managing things and processes.Leadership is about influencing people. It's not about the position or title leaders hold. It's about the leader's ability to influence others, specifically team members, to align with the vision and to accomplish the mission.Effective, engaged leaders know how and when to do both.When those in positions of formal authority such as team leaders, supervisors, managers, etc. are disengaged, they must depend on their title and authority to manage not only things and processes, but also people.When people are "managed," they become disengaged. When people are "led," they become highly engaged. Unfortunately, many organizations and people are over-managed and under-led. Many leaders don't realize that disengaged employees are a symptom of disengaged leaders at one or more levels in the organization. In fact, research shows 79% of employees are, on average, 40% more productive and engaged when working for a better leader.This is because better leaders have a greater ability to positively influence and engage their team members at a higher level.The level of engagement below is determined by the level of engagement above.Unfortunately, it's common for many team leaders, supervisors, and managers to be promoted from within or to be hired from the outside without ever receiving any type of formal leadership development training. They're always expected to lead, often without ever being taught how to lead. According to research, 87% of managers wish they had more training before becoming a manager.Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Supervision is intended to be a tool and resource for developing those courageous people who step up and accept a position of leadership, most often, without ever receiving any formal leadership training. They're simply expected to lead. And, they do the best they can.Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Supervision is full of high impact leadership principles that any formal authority leader, regardless of position, title or rank, can use on day one to increase their influence, generate buy-in, and engage their team. It will help you grow far beyond the old, tired methods of traditional supervision and management that are ineffective in today's workplace. Once you read this book, you will know what it means to be a high impact leader worth following and how to become a more effective leader no matter what level you're at today.Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Supervision was created specifically to help develop those with leadership positions, and those who aspire to lead, move far beyond traditional management and supervision toward high impact leadership. This book has been intentionally formatted with only 90 pages (30 chapters, 3 pages each) for easy reading and for conducting book studies with leaders at all levels. NOTE: Maximize Your Leadership Potential: Beyond Management & Supervision is the generic or white-collar version of Blue-Collar Leadership(R) & Supervision: Unleash Your Team's Potential. MYLP was published after BCLS due to requests from white-collar leaders. However, the content is nearly identical.
While the majority of contemporary works on Armenia concentrate on the modern era, The Kingdom of Armenia takes its beginning in the third century BC, with the ancient literate peoples of Mesopotamia who had commercial interests in the land of Armenia, and continues with a comprehensive overview through to the end of the Middle Ages.
"Excursion of Limitless Disclosures" welcomes perusers on an uncommon investigation into the domains of movement, divulging a story that rises above regular get-away stories. In this dazzling odyssey, each page is an entryway to unseen scenes, social fortunes, and individual disclosures. The book opens with an encouragement to set out on an extraordinary excursion - one that rises above the ordinary and dives into the significant. The story guarantees a progression of objections as well as a kaleidoscope of encounters that rethink the pith of movement. As perusers turn the pages, they are cleared away into a reality where each step turns into a disclosure, and each experience is a door to boundless revelations. The center subject of the book rotates around the thought that an excursion isn't just about the actual demonstration of moving starting with one spot then onto the next. A spirit blending experience spreads out layers of self-improvement, social comprehension, and self-disclosure. The story winds around together travel tales, intelligent accounts, and lovely portrayals, making an embroidery that praises the extravagance of the actual excursion. All through the "Excursion of Limitless Disclosures," perusers experience a different cluster of scenes, from the quiet peacefulness of nature's miracles to the clamoring energy of energetic urban communities. Every objective is painstakingly chosen to offer an interesting point of view on the multi-layered embroidery of the world. The exposition colors striking representations of dusks over old destroys, the musical rhythm of clamoring markets, and the stunning glory of untamed wild. Social investigation becomes the dominant focal point as the account dives into the complexities of neighborhood customs, customs, and the ageless stories implanted in legacy. The peruser turns into a member in celebrations, witnesses the death of customs through ages, and offers in the widespread human experience that ties us across landmasses. At the core of the excursion lies the idea of self-revelation. As the hero wanders into the obscure, they defy difficulties that reflect the deterrents in their inward scene. The story explores the ups and downs of the human soul, delineating that the way to self-revelation is frequently just about as unusual as the geological landscape. The story isn't just an assortment of movement stories; it's a philosophical investigation of the actual pith of being. Subjects of versatility, flexibility, and the interconnectedness of all things arise as the explorer wrestles with the unexplored world. The "Excursion of Endless Disclosures" is a challenge to embrace the vulnerabilities, relish the current second, and find comfort in the acknowledgment that the world is a huge embroidery ready to be investigated. In the last sections, the account completes the cycle, taking the peruser back to the beginning stage of the excursion. However, they return not as a similar individual who set out but rather as a changed person with a freshly discovered viewpoint on life. The excursion, it appears, is a consistent pattern of investigation, a demonstration of the endless revelations that anticipate those ready to set out on the experience that could only be described as epic.
