A Journey into the Heroic Environment: A Personal Guide for Creating Great Customer Transactions Using Eight Universal Shared Values
Rob Lebow Manufacturer: Select Books (NY) ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 1590790618 |
Book Description
"Imagine what would happen in a work environment if people were given the freedom to act the way they really wanted to act-with courage, creativity, and independence from fear of criticism, or worse. And, when people are respected and appreciated, they want to contribute even more, to rise to their true potential. I call that kind of place-a place where people act heroically-a Heroic Environment."It may sound impossible, but it's not. In A Journey Into the Heroic Environment, author Rob Lebow uses the simple story of two strangers meeting on a train journey to simply and comprehensively diagram the journey toward a new measure of transparency, communication and common focus in any work environment, regardless of size. Key to this vision is the concept of Shared Values, when individuals within an organization "agree to agree on what certain values mean to them personally." The openness, trust and respect that would follow would ensure greater job satisfaction and performance levels. The end result will be an increase in morale and productivity company-wide, and a clearer focus on the goals and outlook of your organization.
Already in its third edition, A Journey Into the Heroic Environment is a trusted and proven tool for providing satisfaction in the workplace and increasing overall productivity.

One Electorate Under God?: A Dialogue on Religion and American Politics (Pew Forum Dialogues on Religion & Public Life)
E. J., Jr. Dionne Manufacturer: Brookings Institution Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0815716435 |
Book Description
The United States has been described as a nation with the soul of a church. Religion is discussed more explicitly and more urgently in American politics than in the public debates of any other wealthy democracy. It is certain to play an important role in the elections of 2004. Yet debates over religion and politics are often narrow and highly partisan, although the questions at hand demand a broader and more civil discussion. One Electorate under God? widens the dialogue by bringing together in one volume some of the most influential voices in American intellectual and political life.This book draws on a public debate between former New York governor Mario Cuomo and Indiana congressman Mark Souder, who discuss how their respective faith convictions have been both shaped by and reflected in their careers as public servants.
This discussion, in turn, prompted commentary by a diverse group of scholars, politicians, journalists, and religious leaders who are engaged simultaneously in the religious and policy realms. Each contributor offers insights on how political leaders and religious convictions shape our politics.
One Electorate under God arises from the idea that public deliberation is more honestand more democraticwhen officials are open and reflective about the interactions between their religious convictions and their commitments in the secular realm. This volumethe first of its kindseeks to promote a greater understanding of American thinking about faith and public office in a pluralistic society.

Thomas Aquinas: Contemporary Philosophical Perspectives
Manufacturer: Oxford University Press, USA ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0195153014 |
Book Description
The work of Thomas Aquinas has always enjoyed a privileged position as a pillar of Catholic theology, but for centuries his standing among western philosophers was less sure. Today, Aquinas's work is recognized as a cornerstone of the western philosophical tradition. This book offers a full-scale introduction to Aquinas's philosophy. Brian Davies has collected in one volume the best recent essays on Aquinas by some of the world's foremost scholars of medieval philosophy. Taken together, they illuminate the entire spectrum of Aquinas's thought: philosophy of nature, logic, metaphysics, natural theology, philosophy of mind, philosophy of action, and ethics. The essays are philosophically solid, readable, informative, critical, and evaluative of the texts of Aquinas. Davies frames the essays with a detailed introduction that provides an account of Aquinas's life and works, as well as of his major philosophical conclusions.
