A Means to Heal: Memorials to the Vietnam War Across America
Michael F. Walsh is a Vietnam veteran who set out on a journey to visit Vietnam War memorials. This book includes many of these memorials and his reflections upon them. This book includes over 240 black and white photographs of some of the most iconic war memorials he encountered. Collectively the memorials make a statement. One version of history is that a large majority of citizens viewed those who returned from the war as less than noble; the accepted story is that many felt that the soldiers, sailors and airmen should have refused to serve their country in what they, the vocal minority, defined to be an unjust war. This book challenges that view.The memorials were the result of uncounted numbers people who conceived, planned, and built them in grateful thanks for the services of those who returned and in memory of those who did not. These memorials, demonstrate the esteem they hold for all those who served their country.

Giraffes of Technology: The Making of the Twenty-First-Century Leader

Giraffes of Technology: The Making of the Twenty-First-Century Leader

John Curry; Hubert Glover

For leaders looking to instigate lasting change, Giraffes of Technology is the must-read leadership book of the decade.Kirkus Reviews called Giraffes of Technology, "A serious business book with a light touch, a clear message and much wisdom."Endorsed by designer Tommy Hilfiger, the Strategic Finance Review, and former CBS correspondent Jacqueline Adams, Giraffes of Technology is the book for leaders who wish to create a supportive and authentic work environment that propagates genuine loyalty from employees and staff.In six compact chapters, authors Dr. Hubert D. Glover and Professor John Curry describe how technology and changing cultural norms have come to favor leadership traits reminiscent of the giraffe.Giraffes of Technology uses metaphors and anecdotes to show how a giraffe's 'leadership' style is integral to a company's survival in today's cluttered and busy corporate climate. Drawing on real-world examples of successful companies who implement this leadership style, as well as Glover's own compelling upbringing, the authors sketch a picture of how leaders can succeed and thrive in a predator's world using servant leadership."Why did they title it Giraffes of Technology? In 21st Century business...organizations and their leaders often embrace a top-down, autocratic style in the quest to achieve short-term gains (e.g., quarterly profits for shareholders). Yet many studies in the area of servant leadership show that a nurturing, empathetic, and values-oriented approach creates greater business value in the long run." (Strategic Finance Review)"A compelling read using the giraffe as a metaphor to better understand what makes people successful." (Tommy Hilfiger, fashion founder of the Tommy Hilfiger Corporation)"The author's understanding of both how the giraffe functions and how human leaders operate enables him to draw comparisons that are intriguing and relevant." (Clarion Review Business and Economics)"These lessons and more will delight and inform anyone who wants to thrive in the next five thousand days of our digital revolution." (Jacqueline Adams, former CBS News Correspondent)
