  • - Immigration to Effective Workplace Integration
    af Jeanne Martinson
    228,95 kr.

    This book is written for managers and leaders who have struggled with understanding our newest immigration wave and how to move from just hiring immigrants to effective workplace integration. This book focuses on the four top source countries of immigrants to Canada: China, India, Pakistan and Philippines. It addresses key ways western and eastern societies see the world differently. It explores specific ways people from these societies are dissimilar to Canadian workplace culture in how they share information, give feedback, delegate, make decisions and manage conflict and schedules.This book explores those different perspectives as well as Canada`s immigration history, snapshots of the four key countries, strategies around language and accent issues, and how to recruit within a cultural lens. Although the information is tagged to a specific country, recognize that this is a starting point for your communication with a staff member or colleague. Once we can unbundle the cultural blueprints of behaviour of our subordinates, colleagues, and ourselves - we can move from immigration to effective workplace integration.

  • - Keys to Creating Powerful Women Leaders

    Women in leadership roles is good business! When publicly traded companies have women in senior management roles, those organizations experience an average 47% increase of return on equity and a corresponding 55% increase of earnings. Women want to lead at the highest levels: when 1,400 managers were asked if they had the desire to reach a top management position such as a C-suite role, 79% of women said YES. Yet women hold only 5.8% of corporate executive positions and 14.5% of board positions. So how do we reduce the gap between reality and aspiration? First we need to understand how fairy tale myth, media, and our history of communication have shaped where we are today. Secondly, we need to make different decisions if we truly want to create powerful women leaders.

    Not moving forward on writing your non-fiction book? Too much advice from too many people and none of it seems to work for you? Somehow over the past fifteen years, I have muddled my way into three models that affect author success, which I share in this book. The 'Author Personality' is a model of four questions, that once answered, can help an author move forward with minimum stress to complete his or her manuscript. The 'Milking Stool' model is a play on the antique milking stool I have in my living room. Today, it is only used as a surface to stack books and hold tea cups, but once upon a time it was doing its namesake work at my husband's grandfather's dairy farm. The Milking Stool triangle of legs explains the three essential roles and their accompanying tasks that must be completed to take an author down the writing path to victory. The third model, the 'Book Project Model' is a step-by-step process that an author can follow to ensure success in launching their book to the world. The steps include: obsess, clarify, research, outline or chunk, write, edit, produce, repurpose and reposition. What is the best kind of book? A finished one! My hope for this book is that it will help you, the non-fiction author, to have the best kind of book: a finished one. Together, the three models within will assist you to imagine and create a great book, while saving time, money and stress.

    In the years surrounding WWI, the basic models of many technologies we use today were invented and introduced <i>en masse</i>. The western world moved from an agrarian rural society to an industrialized urban one. The changes were fundamental, monumental, and revolutionary. Some organizations anticipated these changes and were able to adapt, but other organizations ignored them at their peril. The iconic British television series <i>Downton Abbey</i> provides a glimpse into this period of societal change. Whether you are a fan of the television series or not, the examples in this book provide practical advice to effectively manage technological and cultural change.
