The End of Leadership / Barbara Kellerman

No review available on this record. Title : The End of Leadership Material Type: printed text Authors: Barbara Kellerman, Author Publisher: New York : Harper Collins College Publishers Publication Date: 2012 Pagination: xxii; 233 p. Size: 21 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-06-206916-0 Price: 27.99 $ General note: Includes bibliographical references (p. [201]-220) Includes index (p. [221]-233) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Leadership Class number: 658.4 Abstract: From one of the pioneers in the field of leadership studies comes a provocative reassessment of how people lead in the digital age: in The End of Leadership, Barbara Kellerman reveals a new way of thinking about leadership—and followership—in the twenty-first century. Building off of the strengths and insights of her work as a scholar and a teacher, Kellerman critically reexamines our most strongly-held assumptions about the role of leadership in driving success. Revealing which of our beliefs have become dangerously out-of-date thanks to advances in social media culture, she also calls into question the value of the so-called “leadership industry” itself. Asking whether leadership can truly be taught, Kellerman forces us to think critically and expansively about how to thrive as leaders in a global information age. Contents note: Power shift; Historical trajectory-lessening power; Cultural constraints-leveling the playing field; technological imperatives-losing control; Shifting sands; Social contract-undermining the understanding; American experience-downgrading leaders; Paradigm shift; Leadership industry-leading as mantra; Leadership complete-leading in time; Record link: https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=15820

The Other Face of America / Jorge Ramos

No review available on this record. Title : The Other Face of America : chronicles of the immigrants shaping our future Material Type: printed text Authors: Jorge Ramos, Author Publisher: New York : Harper Collins College Publishers Publication Date: 2003 Pagination: 252 p. Size: 21 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-06-093824-6 Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Civilization Emigration and immigration Ethnic relations Social Sciences Class number: 973 Abstract: Immigrants in America are at the heart of what makes this country the most prosperous and visionary in the world. Writing from his own heartfelt perspective as an immigrant, Jorge Ramos, one of the world's most popular and well-respected Spanish-language television news broadcasters, listens to and explores stories of dozens of immigrants who decided to change their lives and risk everything -- families, jobs, history, and their own culture -- in order to pursue a better, freer, and opportunity-filled future in the United States.In his famously clear voice, Jorge Ramos brings to life the tales of individuals from Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic, among other countries, and explains why they first immigrated, what their dreams are, how they deal with American racism, and what they believe their future in America will hold for them and their children.From the Vieques controversy to the "Spanglish" phenomenon to the explosion of Latino creativity in the arts, Ramos shows that there is a new face in America -- one whose colors and countries of origin are as diverse as the country it has adopted as home. Contents note: From the South to the North: Stories of Mexican Immigrants; We Come From Everywhere; Life in the United States; Racism; Spanglish; The American Dream; Our Future; Record link: https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=19146

Stupid White Men

No review available on this record. Title : Stupid White Men : and Other Sorry Excuses for the State of the Nation! Material Type: printed text Authors: Michael Moore, Editor Publisher: New York : Harper Collins College Publishers Publication Date: 2003 Pagination: 277 p. Layout: ill. Size: 22 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-06-039245-1 Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: American wit and humor Politics and government United States - Social conditions Class number: 973.931 Abstract: Stupid White Men ...and Other Sorry Excuses for the State of the Nation! is a book by American filmmaker Michael Moore published in 2001. Although the publishers were convinced it would be rejected by the American reading public after the September 11 attacks, it spent 50 consecutive weeks on New York Times Best Seller list (including eight weeks at number 1) for hardcover nonfiction and went to 53 printings. It is generally known by its short title, Stupid White Men. HarperCollins wanted Moore to rewrite half of the book. They asked him to tone down criticism of George W. Bush, who had just been elected as President. They also wanted to change the title to Michael Moore: The American and remove the chapters "Kill Whitey" (which criticizes what Moore perceives as negative aspects of white American culture), "Dear George" (a negative open letter to Bush), and "A Very American Coup" (which discusses the election in Florida and accuses the Bush campaign of winning via electoral fraud). Furthermore, they demanded that Moore personally pay the $100,000 cost of printing the revised book. If he didn't comply, they would abandon the project and pulp the copies already printed. In the book, Moore suggests that Rupert Murdoch, owner of News Corporation and HarperCollins, "passed down" this decision.
