Unsportsmanlike Conduct

Unsportsmanlike Conduct

Paul Lawrence

Praeger Publishers Inc
1987
sidottu
Lawrence, an economist, football fan, and official, is an authoritative and astute critic of what is wrong with football in higher education as regulated by the NCAA. Lawrence believes the NCAA has become a cartel that keeps expenses low by rewarding the players almost nothing comparable to their contribution. . . . This is not the book for a novice interested in the razzle-dazzle of sports, but it is highly recommended for one who wants to understand the present situation and efforts, some misguided, to control the sport. Lawrence makes an in-depth analysis of the symbiotic relationship between football, the NCAA, and academia. The most valuable part of the book is that Lawrence, after carefully defining the situation, suggests some solutions. ChoiceUnsportsmanlike Conduct is the first single source to trace the history of the 80-year old National Collegiate Athletic Association and to explain its growth from a small group seeking safer football rules to the large powerful regulatory body that it is today. This volume not only provides a unique view, but also an economic analysis of the college athletic industry. The author examines the development of American college football since the late 1800s and shows how the NCAA has turned intercollegiate football into a multi-million dollar industry. By viewing the structure of this organization from an economic perspective, he demonstrates that the NCAA has acted like many other collusive groups of producers in order to maximize their financial interests by exploiting consumers, employees, and particularly athletes.

Nationalism

Nationalism

Paul Lawrence

Routledge
2004
nidottu
Massive changes have taken place in the way nations and nationalism are thought about. From being viewed enthusiastically by historians as a force for beneficial change before the First World War, today appeals to 'national' sentiment are viewed as far more complex and problematic. This book looks at how historians (and others, such as sociologists and political theorists) have explained the development, and enduring importance, of national identities from c.1850 to the present day. It compares and contrasts a wide range of different theories, and will be useful for anyone wanting to equip themselves with a theoretical understanding of why we live in nations, and why we invest them with such significance.

Leading Change

Leading Change

Paul Lawrence

Kogan Page Ltd
2014
nidottu
It is often claimed that 70% of organizational change efforts fail, despite the popularity of linear change models. However these linear approaches to change are often based on the premise that change is predictable and straightforward, when actually change is complex, with the 'human' element often changing the functioning of the organizational system as a whole. Leading Change provides the practical framework that allows leaders to actively engage with a complex adaptive system to bring about successful organizational change. Supported by academic research, and grounded with a range of examples and cases, the book offers a genuine, viable alternative to existing approaches.

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2025
nidottu
Based on three years of meta- research into team effectiveness and coaching, this book explores some of the most common contradictions and debates around the topic of team coaching and presents readers with a framework to enable them to explore this field for themselves, reflecting on their own experience and drawing their own conclusions.Team coaching in organisations is still a relatively new discipline, with industry associations having only recently defined their first attempts to frame team coaching in the form of standard skills and competencies. As a new discipline we still see multiple perspectives on what team coaching is, and how it should best be practiced. The literature abounds with paradox and contradictions. Within this book Lawrence delves into these contradictions and debates, providing a framework to encourage readers to construct their own practice model. Covering both theory and practical application, this will be a useful guide for both experienced team coaches and those entering the field.
