For several years now, and with increasing intensity, life in traditional organizations is coming to an end. No matter who you talk to, from the newest employee to the manager with greater range, through the most important customer, often you perceive more disappointment than enthusiasm.
With such a scenario, it is not surprising that profound changes are taking place both in the way we do business, as in the way of structuring companies, lead teams, and manage work. In line with these changes, it has been consolidating a fundamental role: the agile coach, a facilitator, catalyst and change agent.
Many people today are developing themselves and becoming agile coaches. Each new agile coach emerges with his conception of the profession, rarely coincides with other agile coaches. A shared understanding of responsibilities, knowledge and skills required to perform as such is necessary.
Through this series, the author intends to chart a path, among many others, for an agile coach to acquire the knowledge and develop the skills considered necessary for the exercise of this beautiful profession.

Описание: Andalusian Hours: Poems from the Porch of Flannery O'Connor is a collection of 101 sonnets that channel the voice of celebrated fiction writer, Flannery O'Connor. In these poems, poet and scholar Angela Alaimo O'Donnell imagines the rich interior life Flannery lived during the last fourteen years of her life in rural Georgia on her family's farm named "Andalusia." Each poem begins with an epigraph taken from O'Connor's essays, stories, or letters; the poet then plumbs Flannery's thoughts and the poignant circumstances behind them, welcoming the reader into O'Connor's private world. Together the poems tell the story of a brilliant young woman who enjoyed a bright and promising childhood, was struck with lupus just as her writing career hit its stride, and was forced to return home and live out her days in exile, far from the literary world she loved. By turns tragic and comic, the poems in Andalusian Hours explore Flannery's loves and losses, her complex relationship with her mother, her battle with her illness and disability, and her passion for her writing. The poems mark time in keeping with the liturgical hours O'Connor herself honored in her prayer life and in her quasi-monastic devotion to her vocation and to the home she learned to love, Andalusia.

Описание: Radical Ambivalence: Race in Flannery O'Connor is the first book-length study of O'Connor's attitude towards race in her fiction and correspondence. It is also the first study to include controversial material from unpublished letters that reveals the complex and troubling nature of O'Connor's thoughts on the subject. O'Connor lived and did most of her writing in her native Georgia during the tumultuous years of the Civil Rights movement. In one of her letters, O'Connor frankly expresses her double-mindedness regarding the social and political upheaval taking place in the U.S. with regard to race: "I hope that to be of two minds about some things is not to be neutral." Examination of her correspondence demonstrates that though O'Connor likely subscribed to the idea of racial equality, she was wary of desegregation, fearing the erosion of Southern culture and the disappearance of the code of manners that governed the relationships between African Americans and whites. This double-mindedness also manifests itself in O'Connor's fiction. Drawing on critical whiteness studies, Chapter 1 interrogates the concepts of race and whiteness O'Connor inherited and analyzes the ways in which O'Connor critiques the unjust racial practices of the South in her stories and other writings yet unconsciously upholds them. Chapter 2 explores O'Connor's ambivalence with regard to contemporary politics, analyzes her use of derogatory language to describe African Americans, and assesses the inconsistencies in her discussion of race in the stories and letters in light of speech act-theory. Chapter 3 considers the influence of theology and Catholicism on O'Connor's attitudes, demonstrating that O'Connor's radically theological vision and formation in a segregated Church shaped her ideas about race. Chapter Four takes its cue from Toni Morrison's Playing in the Dark and examines the complex role played by "Africanist" presence, represented by powerful black bodies, in the construction of white consciousness in O'Connor's stories. Chapter Five explores the theme of thwarted communion between the races that preoccupies O'Connor in her fiction and correspondence. The study concludes that O'Connor's race-haunted writing serves as the literary incarnation of her uncertainty about the great question of her era and of her urgent need, despite considerable reluctance, to address the fraught relationship between the races.

Описание: This edited collection asks how key New Zealand judgments might read if they were written by a feminist judge. Feminist judging is an emerging critical legal approach that works within the confines of common law legal method to challenge the myth of judicial neutrality and illustrate how the personal experiences and perspectives of judges may influence the reasoning and outcome of their decisions. Uniquely, this book includes a set of cases employing an approach based on mana wahine, the use of Maori values that recognise the complex realities of Maori women’s lives. Through these feminist and mana wahine judgments, it opens possibilities of more inclusive judicial decision making for the future. ‘This project stops us in our tracks and asks us: how could things have been different? At key moments in our legal history, what difference would it have made if feminist judges had been at the tiller? By doing so, it raises a host of important questions. What does it take to be a feminist judge? Would we want our judges to be feminists and if so why? Is there a uniquely female perspective to judging?’ Professor Claudia Geiringer, Faculty of Law, Victoria University of Wellington ‘With this book, some of our leading jurists expose the biases and power structures that underpin legal rules and the interpretation of them. Some also give voice to mana wahine perspectives on and about the law that have become invisible over time, perpetuating the impacts of colonialism and patriarchy combined on Maori women. I hope this book will be a catalyst for our nation to better understand and then seek to ameliorate these impacts.’ Dr Claire Charters, Associate Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Auckland ‘The work is highly illuminating and is critical to the development of our legal system ... It is crucial, not only for legal education, so that students of the law open their minds to the different ways legal problems can be conceptualised and decided. It is also crucial if we are going to have a truly just legal system where all the different voices and perspectives are fairly heard.’ Professor Mark Henaghan, Dean of the Faculty of Law, University of Otago ‘I believe this project is particularly important, as few academics or researchers in New Zealand concentrate on judicial method. I am therefore hopeful that it will provoke thoughtful debate in a critical area for society.’ The Honourable Justice Helen Winkelmann, New Zealand Court of Appeal

Описание: The defeat of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor on June 10, 2014, was the most stunning upset in modern political history. Shown by his own polling to be leading by 34 points in the Virginia district he'd represented fourteen years, outspending little-known primary opponent Dave Brat 40-1, Cantor - widely presumed to be the next Speaker - was crushed by eleven points. Typically, the elite media had totally missed the story, buying into the narrative of Cantor-the-inevitable. Meanwhile the Brat campaign was putting together a vast, highly motivated grassroots army that day by day, voter by voter, was exposing Cantor for who he really was: not the staunch 'young gun' conservative he played on TV, but one of the nation's leading RINOs (Republican in Name Only), indifferent to his constituents, deeply self-interested and a key behind-the-scenes Democrat enabler on Obamacare, immigration and spending. The architects of that remarkable, against-all-odds victory were 23-year old Zach Werrell and 24-year old gray Delany. In 'How to Bag a RINO, ' they reveal in detail how it was achieved, and why it is a model for similar insurgent GOP campaigns across America as grassroots Republicans fight to take back their party, and the country."This is the book the Republican Establishment does NOT want you to read" - Peter Schweizer, author of 'Clinton Cash' and 'Throw Them All Out.'
