Who Am I?

Who Am I?

pokkari
In Who Am I?, you'll find ten, thought-provoking questions, aimed to help reflect on someone you may be unfamiliar: you. How well do you know yourself; what ideals do you hold; what motives drive you; what do you hope to achieve; who do you wish to become?Allow this book to aid in your quest for understanding and, perhaps, spark further interest in what lies beneath your surface; after all, self-discovery is paramount to a fulfilling life, though many often neglect it. I implore you, take a moment, examine what matters, and why you are the way you are; your only regret, will not be knowing sooner.Your journey of self begins here...are you ready?About the AuthorJ.C. McCormick is a mythology, philosophy, and psychology researcher, who was once a member of the Jehovah's Witness; however, he was ostracized for his critical analysis, and divergent theories. Now, he spends his days seeking truth through study, and deep introspection; sharing his findings with a powerful rhetorical tone, bar religious dogma, replacing it with information gleaned from trusted sources in their respective fields. His goal is to inspire others to venture on their own journeys for understanding; using his writing to move one to action, without subjecting others to religious ideologies or agendas.

Rethinking School Leadership - Creating Great Schools for All Students
We began, prompted by the late Chris Gonnet, Superintendent of Grande Prairie Public Schools, to explore the question 'What Makes a Great School?'in December 2010 at a meeting in Boston. We concluded that it involved many inter-connected elements, but that the key components were focused teacher leadership enabled by being empowered and resourced to make a difference. Rethinking Leadership sees evidence-informed practice as the fulcrum point for leveraging school improvement, especially if it systematically supported within a systematic way at the jurisdiction and provincial levels to build school leadership capacity. We also concluded that the framing conditions for the work of the school - the provincial/ state policies, curriculum requirements, financial arrangements, assessment regimes as well as the policies of school boards and districts - either enables or impairs the ability of a team within the school to create a great school for all students.
Strategic Conversations

Strategic Conversations

J.-C. Spender; Bruce A. Strong

Cambridge University Press
2014
sidottu
Most organizations fail to take full advantage of their employees' knowledge, initiative, and imagination. In this accessible and practical book, J.-C. Spender and Bruce Strong provide a guide for building entrepreneurial workforces through carefully designed conversations between management and employees. These 'strategic conversations' make employees partners in the strategy development process, engaging them to help shape the organization's future. The result is transformational: instead of strategy being a dry, periodic planning exercise for the few, it becomes a dynamic and continuous act of co-creation enriched by the many. Case studies illustrate how leading organizations have used strategic conversations to build sustained competitive advantage, create innovative business models, make better decisions under uncertainty, reduce the need for change management, and enhance employee engagement. The book will appeal to managers, entrepreneurs of all stripes, and teachers and students in schools of business and public administration.

Introduction to Hydrogeology, Third Edition
Providing an introduction to the crucially important topic of groundwater, this text covers all major fields of hydrogeology and includes outlines of the occurrence of groundwater in various rock types, the movement and storage of groundwater, the formulation of groundwater balances, the development of groundwater chemistry, as well as the practical application of hydrogeology for groundwater development. Following a unique systems approach to describe and connect its various elements, the text also explores a large selection of examples of groundwater cases from various parts of the world. In addition, theoretical sections and examples are illustrated with a number of drawings, photos and computer printouts. Suitable for education in hydrogeology at postgraduate and graduate level, the text is also a useful reference tool for professionals and decision-makers involved in water or water-related activities. In the revised paperback edition more attention is paid to the processes in the unsaturated zone, especially those relating to groundwater recharge. Also, the investigation methods are highlighted in the sections where the related theory is dealt with, and they are not presented in the last chapter on groundwater management. The References and Bibliography section is also extended, some figures are improved, and the inevitable ‘typing errors’ are corrected as well.In the third edition, a more formal basis for the hydro-chemical processes described in the chapter on groundwater chemistry has been added. Mass balances and the principles of dispersion and retardation are introduced. Additional illustrations are provided, also explaining the processes occurring along streamlines.Consult: http://introductiontohydrogeology.nl/ for additional information on the book, the author and available software.
