Offering an array of fresh innovations to remedy the most daunting
leadership challenges of today's complex and rapidly evolving
world, this practical how-to guide is for anyone who has ever had
qualms about his or her lack of leadership experience or imagined
limitations. Everyone in a leadership or management role wants a
quick and effective solution to the most severe problems. This book
enables even a novice to proactively work through the largest
challenges. Rather than providing clichés or superficial advice,
the authors leverage the most impactful examples of key elements of
leadership in a practical way that readers can translate to their
own situations, no matter if they are in charge of a for-profit,
not-for-profit, educational, religious, family, or social
organization. The questions for analysis in each chapter
specifically guide readers as they apply the material to their own
experiences and challenges, making the insights pragmatic,
relevant, and immediately useful. The book presents innovative
tools and techniques, such as the use of Pascal's Wager to make
momentous decisions despite gaps in relevant data and an uncertain
future, as well as a way to reduce or eliminate the career-ending
threat of any reader's most severe "Achilles' heel"
vulnerabilities. The time management chapter supplies dozens of
pragmatic ideas to do more in less time—and do it better; the
chapter on "Quicksand Quadrants" enables any leader to quickly
assess the optimal mix of approaches in any situation. It all adds
up to an essential—and user-friendly—manual for every leader at
every level.
Human Resource Development is a very important scientific topic in
the world today and due to the globalization process, it will only
become more important in the next decades. This happens because the
effort to develop in a sustained way the world will need more and
more talent. In this context, we do not believe robots or
Artificial Intelligence and digitalization will decrease the need
for Humans in organizations; quite on the contrary we consider that
the so-called 4.0 revolution will only increase the need for more
highly developed human potential. It is within this context that we
believe a Handbook of Research on Human Resource Development will
be important because it will help individuals, organization
managers, and national deciders to invest in HRD. The book is
needed because it fills a gap given that many disperse publications
exist but no one that really covers in 25 chapters the essence of
the topic. Researchers from all disciplines covering business
sciences and social and human sciences working on a range possible
topic of the project. This project will emphasize the importance of
HRD in the current and future context. Learning and development are
fundamental to the digital and technological world. Researchers
will be encouraged to push the boundaries of their respective
disciplines and to see how theories and methodologies can be used
to design rich research projects to study the complex dynamics and
interactions of HRD. This project is an opportunity to involve
several stakeholders, including professionals from public and
private companies, human resources professionals, specialists,
academics, and researchers from several countries.
The cornerstones of the DKG Brotherhood are Gavin Gatling, Kufa
Siamkwari and Dominic L'Estrange. At the height of the bush war,
(Chimurenga II), without a word to his wife Leocardia, Kufa
absconds over the border one night to join "the Comrades" only to
return years later to die in the arms of his beloved. After years
of procrastinating, Gavin finally agrees to adopt a child called
Topaz Nyasha, but he does so on the proviso that no one ever
discovers the identity of the infant's biological mother. Because
of this Shirley is convinced that her husband is the father, and
for years she hides the details of his own birth from him, but will
Monica, the maid, reveal the facts surrounding Gavin's roots before
the wind song blows the truth through the small fishing village on
Lake Kariba? After Topaz turns 18, Dominic is astonished to learn
that she is in fact the great granddaughter of tracker Elias
Siamkwari and ivory hunter Sebastian L'Estrange, but why should she
inherit the gold Huguenot cross with its definitive pearl that
symbolizes the Holy Spirit? In this suspense-filled saga set in the
mystical Zambezi Valley, against Zimbabwe's political background,
the legacy of the Zambezi Wind Song is ultimately fulfilled.

The digital transformation of work during the COVID-19 pandemic
seemed in many ways a fair treaty between employers and employees.
However, realistically, its advantages have primarily benefitted
white-collar workers with the ability to work from home, excluding
a significant proportion of the global workforce, those responsible
for providing fresh water, environmental hygiene, transportation,
electricity, healthcare and food and security services, who do not
have the option of conducting their jobs remotely. The pandemic has
thus deepened the gap between white and blue and grey collar
workers. Combining both theoretical and empirical studies,
Management and Organizational Studies on Blue and Grey Collar
Workers focuses on recent issues such as digitalization and
migration and their implications for organizational commitment, HRM
functions and strategic management processes. Acting as an
examination of the changing nature of power between blue and grey
collar workers and institutional hierarchies in the light of the
COVID-19 pandemic, contributors foreground the importance of these
roles as a cornerstone for the competitive power of industries and
nations, as well as basic global infrastructure, both now and in
future. Highlighting the workers who provide the essential
services, maintenance and manufactured goods that power the global
economy, Management and Organizational Studies on Blue and Grey
Collar Workers supplies essential knowledge on an often overlooked
workforce for a variety of disciplines, including human resource
management, industrial relations, social psychology, labor
economics, gender studies, political science, union studies and
health care management.
