Lift
A New Paradigm for Building Influential Leaders by Tom Miller and Betsy Nichols Publication date: January 2016 Many contemporary thinkers have sensed a change in the air – a movement away from some of the deep seated leadership patterns established over the last several decades. Among these patterns, Miller and Nichols illustrate the concept of influence: the underlying, foundational values of its traditional definition; how that definition has affected society; and how a new definition with new values can produce positive change for individuals, communities, businesses and cultures. The authors show that influence based on Position, Possessions and Pedigree produces nothing more than the status quo, a static semblance of success, while influence based on Community, Character and Choice lifts leadership to the level of productive, organic and lasting change. Lift is set to add a new layer to the developing dialogue of purpose - driven business - a contemporary definition and arena for the concept of influence. |
Mentally Strong
Turning Momentary Setbacks into Monumental Successes by Michelle Jacobi Publication date: January 2016 Life handed Michelle Jacobi a challenge. At 29 years old, after giving birth to her third son, she was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. Everyone faces challenges in life. Most are minor, but others - like divorce, job loss, financial crisis, death of a loved one, disease or sudden loss of health - come hard and fast, like a slap in the face. What can we do when we meet these kind of challenges? We could wave a white flag and give up. We could delay any kind of reaction at all, and wish our problems away. Or, we could pick ourselves back up and move forward. Bouncing back from adversity isn’t easy and generally isn’t the decision that a lot of people make, because it’s painful. In Mentally Strong, Jacobi takes her readers through her story and struggles, and suggests some ways to stay strong against all of life’s setbacks. In her journey of determination, Michelle Jacobi leads the reader through the realities required to bounce back from life’s knockout punches. |
