Breathing Oxygen: How Positive Leadership Gives Life to Winning Cultures
Positive, healthy thinking is as essential to great leadership and building a winning culture as the air we breathe. Leading yourself and a team of people has never been more complicated than it is today. As a leader, every move you make is either breathing life into your organization or slowly killing it. The atmosphere can easily turn toxic, with negativity, blame, and doubt poisoning the culture. Just like every human being on the planet needs good air to breathe, every organization needs leadership that breathes life into its people to sustain the energy required to complete its mission. Nine out of every ten employees say they would take a pay cut to work for a more meaningful culture. Are you breathing enough oxygen into your organization to give it meaning? Over the past decade, leadership expert Jason Barger has advised some of the world's biggest brands--including Deloitte, Wendy's, Caribou Coffee, Ultimate Software, Syracuse University, Nationwide Insurance, NetJets, Kaiser Permanente, and many others--on how to engage the minds and hearts of their people. In Breathing Oxygen, Barger explores six key mindsets--Clarity, Inclusivity, Agility, Grit, Rest, and Ownership--that bring energy to every team and expand their productivity and your organization's potential.
Giles of Rome's On Ecclesiastical Power
Giles of Rome was the archbishop of Bourges and a loyal champion of Pope Boniface VIII during the Franco-papal crisis of 1296-1303. On Ecclesiastical Power was written at the height of the conflict between Pope Boniface VIII and King Philip IV of France and represents the earliest fully articulated and philosophically developed defense of the "hierocratic" ideology of the medieval papacy. Giles's theory that all government must be legitimized by the pope was based on scriptural, philosophical, patristic, and canonical sources, and his conclusion that the pope is the rightful ruler and final judge of the world-even in secular matters-is the definitive statement on papal power in the Middle Ages. This book offers a new and complete critical edition of the Latin text, based on a collation of five fourteenth-century manuscripts. It is accompanied by a literal English translation and a detailed introduction analyzing the context and content of the treatise. The book takes into account the hitherto unconsidered Cremona manuscript of On Ecclesiastical Power and will be indispensable to scholars and students of the history of political thought and international relations.

Giles of Rome's De regimine principum

pokkari
From the time of its composition (c.1280) for Philip the Fair of France until the early sixteenth century, Giles of Rome's mirror of princes, the De regimine principum, was read by both lay and clerical readers in the original Latin and in several vernacular translations, and served as model or source for several works of princely advice. This study examines the relationship between this didactic political text and its audience by focusing on the textual and material aspects of the surviving manuscript copies, as well as on the evidence of ownership and use found in them and in documentary and literary sources. Briggs argues that lay readers used De regimine for several purposes, including as an educational treatise and military manual, whereas clerics, who often first came into contact with it at university, glossed, constructed apparatus for, and modified the text to suit their needs in their later professional lives.

Sometimes, a simple field trip to the planetarium can be an act of bravery. In Giles Ashby's case, it could also be a second chance with his lifelong crush.Unbearably awkward and strangled by his anxiety disorder, Giles used surly snarls and abrupt remarks to keep everyone at a distance. As a result and surprising no one, he finds himself divorced and overwhelmed by the demands of parenting nine-year-old Milo -a shy, awkward clone of his father. Not wanting Milo to struggle through life the way he has, Giles enlists the help of Reid Marshall's new nanny agency.Of all the nannies in Manhattan... Reid had to send Giles's childhood crush, Riley Fitzgerald. Still smitten and as flustered as he was in middle school, Giles bungles every encounter with the "new" nanny. But sweet, clever, outgoing Riley is exactly what Milo needs.Riley thinks he knows what he's getting into when he accepts a position working for his childhood nemesis, but Milo steals his heart the moment they meet. And "Giles the Jerk" isn't as bad as Riley remembers. Or maybe Giles was never really all that bad... Riley finds himself swooning as Giles faces his fears in order to help Milo survive the fourth grade and win the science fair.But can Riley really trust his heart, when all his past relationships have been cursed? Could this time be any different? *Paperback includes additional illustrations, playlists, bonus chapters, and more
