Planning, Common Sense, and Superior Performance

Planning, Common Sense, and Superior Performance

Erwin Rausch

Information Age Publishing
2008
sidottu
This book is intended to help you enhance your common sense (your intuitive decision making skills) as well as your critical thinking skills (your rational planning and decision-making skills). A big claim, to be certain, but undoubtedly a valid one. As you are aware, your common sense, and with it your ability to make many decisions almost intuitively with minimum thought, is vastly better today than it was when you were a teenager. Experience and learning that translated itself into better judgment and reasoning ability, accounts for this change. More precisely, new knowledge led to thought habits that became so solid that you spend hardly a moment on decisions to which they apply. That is how common sense and judgment mature.Practicing the relatively simple formula that this book offers, and developing the habit to apply it regularly, will help you take another quantum step toward a higher level of common sense and intuitive reasoning when you develop plans and make decisions. At the same time, the book will provide you with tools that will sharpen your ability to think about work and personal decisions you are facing from a more comprehensive perspective than you are probably doing now.In addition to helping with plans and decisions, the book will show you how to be an more effective leader.If you manage anything, with or without staff, are preparing for managerial responsibities as a college student, or if you seek to take a managerial career track, this book can be of significant use to you. It does not matter whether your career is in business, non-profit organization, or government, in health care, retail, engineering, or transportation, just to name a few. The concept presented here addresses decisions on matters which, directly or indirectly, involve people. If you are, or expect to be a manager with a small or a large staff, this book will not only help you make better managerial decisions, it will also help you become a better leader. However, even if you are on a professional track where you manage a function, but do not, or will not have anyone reporting to you, your work still has impact on people. In these professional positions the leadership aspects of your managerial responsibilities may just be of smaller impact, overall, on your plans and decisions. You will, nevertheless bring better results if you consider many of the thoughts and concepts discussed here.Moreover, most professionals are frequently in positions on teams or projects where they are likely to assume leadership responsibilities. In these situations, the concepts discussed in this book can be most useful.Even where your leadership and management responsibilities, and decisions, involve family affairs, most of the sections of this book can be valuable. They address key issues for decision-making and interpersonal relations, and they do it from a unique and comprehensive perspective.

Equality of Educational Opportunity and Knowledgeable Human Capital

Equality of Educational Opportunity and Knowledgeable Human Capital

Erwin V. Johanningmeier

Information Age Publishing
2009
nidottu
This work explores how the generally accepted definition or measure of equality of educational opportunity at the beginning of the twenty-first century differs from what it was in the immediate postwar era. While there have been differing definitions or measures of equality of educational opportunity, there has been a continual call from education critics and education reformers for more and better mathematics, science, and foreign language in the nation’s schools.This work maintains that public education acquired significance as a vital part of a national agenda in conjunction with three developments. First, the prosperity of the United States after World War II contributed to a consumer dominated culture and the phenomenon of the citizenconsumer. The nation had to expand educational opportunities in response to the increased birth rate in the postwar years and in response to the increased qualifications that the workplace required for entry and employment. Significantly, the nation had the resources to send its children and youth to school for longer and longer periods of time. Better-educated citizens soon took better jobs and they spent paychecks buying everything from new technologies to new and bigger houses and new and bigger cars. Increased household income allowed young members of the family to attend and even complete high school and increased the chance of affording the cost of attending college. Second, by the end of World War II the globalization of the international community was underway, and the United States’ position and role in the international community were clearly challenged by the Soviet Union. As the United States found itself in the Cold War, its national security required an ideological, a military, and a technological strategy. Each of these strategies ultimately depended on higher or post-secondary education, and that had lasting implications for the nation’s elementary and secondary schools. The nation’s engagement in the Cold War required well-educated professionals to secure intelligence and to develop effective propaganda. That engagement also required scientists, mathematicians, engineers to develop and to maintain the technology the nation required for its defense and subsequently for the space race with the Soviet Union. Third and perhaps most importantly, it was becoming increasingly clear in the Cold War Era that the nation would have to address its long history of denying civil rights to some of its citizens, especially but not exclusively, African Americans. As the Supreme Court’s 1954 Brown decision signified, public education was the initial venue where the struggle for racial equality took place.

Presumed Guilty: How the Supreme Court Empowered the Police and Subverted Civil Rights

Presumed Guilty: How the Supreme Court Empowered the Police and Subverted Civil Rights

Erwin Chemerinsky

Liveright Publishing Corporation
2021
sidottu
Presumed Guilty, like the best-selling The Color of Law, is a "smoking gun" of civil rights research, a troubling history that reveals how the Supreme Court enabled racist policing and sanctioned law enforcement excesses. The fact that police are nine times more likely to kill Black men than other Americans is no accident; it is the result of an elaborate body of doctrines that allow the police and courts to presume that suspects are guilty before being charged.Demonstrating how the prodefendant Warren Court was a brief historical aberration, Erwin Chemerinsky shows how this more liberal era ended with Nixon's presidency and the ascendance of conservative justices, whose rulings--like Terry v. Ohio and Los Angeles v. Lyons--have permitted stops and frisks, limited suits to reform police departments, and even abetted the use of chokeholds. Presumed Guilty concludes that an approach to policing that continues to exalt "Dirty Harry" can be transformed only by a robust court system committed to civil rights.

The Court created broad immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts taken by a president, dramatically limited the power of federal administrative agencies, clarified the meaning of the Second Amendment, and empowered cities to use the criminal law against the unhoused. This concise book reviews the key decisions of October Term 2022 and their implications.

Dos mil a os despu s, el llamado a seguir a Cristo se ha re-empacado para ser suave, a prueba de problemas, lleno de oportunidades y promesas, pero sin riesgo, pasi n ni sacrificio. Es esto por lo que Jes s muri ? Si l escogi el camino de la cruz, a d nde vacilar a en llevarnos? Ser posible que seguir a Jes s sea escoger el camino del b rbaro? Jes s nunca hizo un llamado pr stino a una religi n apropiada y segura. Jes s atrae a sus seguidores a un camino muy lejos de ser una ruta f cil. Es un camino lleno de aventura, incertidumbre, y posibilidades ilimitadas. El nico camino que puede realizar los m s profundos anhelos y deseos de tu coraz n. Este es el camino del b rbaro: darla tu coraz n al nico que puede hacerte plenamente vivo. Amarlo con intensidad y sencillez. Desatar la fe salvaje que llevas dentro. Ser consumido por la presencia de un Dios apasionado y compasivo. Ir a donde l te env a, cueste lo que cueste. Two thousand years later, the call to follow Christ has been repackaged to be smooth and trouble-free, filled with opportunity and promise but lacking risk, passion, and sacrifice. Is this really what Jesus died for? If He chose the way of the cross, where would He hesitate leading us? Is it possible that to follow Jesus is to choose the barbarian way? Jesus never made a pristine call to a proper or safe religion. Jesus beckons His followers to a path that is far from the easy road. It is a path filled with adventure, uncertainty, and unlimited possibilities. The only path that can fulfill the deepest longings and desires of your heart. This is the barbarian way: to give your heart to the only One who can make you fully alive. To love Him with simplicity and intensity. To unleash the untamed faith within. To be consumed by the presence of a passionate and compassionate God. To go where He sends you, no matter the cost.

Un manifiesto revolucionario sobre las innumerables formas en que Jes s de Nazaret transform nuestro mundo y nos capacita para vivir vidas de valor, prop sito y gracia hoy. Del autor m s vendido de La ltima flecha y El camino del guerrero. En todos los mbitos de nuestra existencia (arte, tecnolog a, matem ticas) estamos cautivados por historias de genios. Los genios violan el estatus quo, desestabilizan las viejas formas de pensar y, en ltima instancia, perturban la historia al hacernos ver el mundo de manera diferente. Vemos este efecto cuando consideramos el canon de los grandes genios de la historia, desde Leonardo da Vinci hasta Steve Jobs. Pero cuando buscamos al genio que dej el impacto m s duradero en la vida humana: nuestra b squeda de la verdad; nuestro deseo de saber qui nes somos; nuestra noci n de que la felicidad es m s que buscar servirnos a nosotros mismos - inevitablemente encontramos a Jes s. A pesar de haber vivido en la oscuridad durante la mayor parte de su vida, Jes s de Nazaret es sin duda una de las personas m s influyentes que jam s haya caminado sobre la faz de la tierra. En El genio de Jes s, Erwin Raphael McManus pregunta: qu pasar a si estudi ramos y emulamos a Jes s, no solo a trav s del lente de su divinidad, sino como un genio que nos mostr lo que significa vivir plenamente humanos? Bas ndose en las escrituras, la historia y las historias de su propio ministerio, McManus se sumerge en los matices de las palabras y acciones de Jes s, mostrando c mo no solo pueden inspirarnos, sino tambi n transformar nuestra forma de pensar sobre la humildad, la libertad y el prop sito que hace que valga la pena vivir. Para los cristianos que desean conocer y comprender mejor su fe, o para los lectores que desean crear su futuro m s poderoso, El genio de Jes s, es un estudio que invita a la reflexi n de la persona m s importante que jam s haya existido. ---------- A groundbreaking manifesto on the countless ways Jesus of Nazareth transformed our world--and empowers us to live lives of courage, purpose, and grace today. From the bestselling author of The Last Arrow and The Way of the Warrior. Despite having lived in obscurity for most his life, Jesus of Nazareth is undeniably one of the most influential people to have ever walked the face of the earth. In The Genius of Jesus, Erwin Raphael McManus asks: what would happen if we studied and emulated Jesus, not only through the lens of his divinity, but as a genius who showed us what it means to live fully human? Drawing on scripture, history, and stories from his own ministry, McManus dives into the nuances of Jesus's words and actions, showing how they can not only inspire us, but transform how we think about humility, freedom, and the purpose that makes our lives worth living.
