Book Description

Childcare providers and teachers in preschool and primary grade settings will greatly value the collection of writings in The Power of Guidance: Teaching Social-Emotional Skills In the Early Childhood Classroom. The writings provide a concise yet multi-faceted overview of the guidance approach used with this age group. The book examines the differences between patience and understanding and between misbehavior and mistaken behavior, important distinctions that must be made in order to understand and deal with various behaviors using the guidance approach. Readers also will learn the components of an encouraging classroom and strategies for maintaining it, leading to non-punitive approaches for classroom management. One chapter puts particular focus on intervention strategies with boys, a topic readers often seek out. The book has the distinction of being selected as a comprehensive member benefit for the NAEYC for 2003.

Customer Reviews:

GREAT book!!.......2007-05-07

This book should be a must for every early childhood teacher or child care provider. It has many practical solutions to everyday problems we all encounter.

Oh my Goodness.......2007-03-03

If you having any bearing on a child's social and emotional wellbeing, Itell you that this will end up being a staple in your library. You will also find yourself referring others to specific chapters in the book. I am now on my third copy of this book, as I keep lending it to others, and they won't give it back!

This first chapter dives into sharing how when we understand developmental milestones in children, then the idea of "patience" most seem to think those who work with young children need, is thrown out the window! Dan explains, how truly understanding the child's development is the touchstone to nurturing all aspects of a child's development.Patience is not a requirement when it comes to working with young children.

Also, the chapter on crisis management(I think chapter 10) is fundamental to an early childhood educators approach to working with challengind behaviors. The chapter on the male role and early childhood is excellent.

Buy this book! You will not be dissapointed!

Book Description

Whether you work in the corporate world, a nonprofit organization, or the government sector, you likely face the need to work with others to solve problems and make decisions on a daily basis. And you've undoubtedly been frustrated by how laborious and conflict-ridden such group efforts can be. At all levels – from neighborhood block associations to boards of directors of multinational corporations – the consensus building process is highly effective in an increasingly fragmented, contentious society. In addition, the old top-down methods such as Robert’s Rules of Orders often prompt more problems then they solve. Consensus helps you to implement better, more creative solutions. It provides a winning alternative to top-down decision making – and even parliamentary procedure. By learning to build consensus, stakeholders come to understand and respect one another’s perspectives. The consensus building process allows participants to find solutions and forge agreements that meet everyone’s needs – and provides a meaningful basis for effective, long-range implementation of decisions. The Consensus Building Handbook provides a blueprint to help make the process work in your organization, including a practical, quick-reference Short Guide. Plus, you’ll find in-depth commentary and seventeen case studies with in-depth commentaries to provide the theoretical basis for this new approach. CASE STUDIES INCLUDE: Activating a Policy Network: The Case of Mainport Schiphol The Northern Oxford County Coalition: Four Maine Towns Tackle a Public Health Mystery The Chelsea Charter Consensus Process Resolving Science-Intensive Public Policy Disputes: Reflections on the New York Bight Initiative Negotiation Superfund Cleanup at the Massachusetts Military Reservation RuleNet: An Experiment in Online Consensus Building Regulatory Negotiations: The Native American Experience The Chattanooga Process: A City’s Vision Is Realized From City Hall to the Streets: A Community Plan Meets the Real World The Catron County Citizens Group: A Case Study in Community Collaboration Facilitating Statewide HIV/AIDS Policies and Priorities in Colorado Building Consensus for Change Within a Major Corporation: The Case of Levi-Strauss & Company

Customer Reviews:

An amazing achievement.......1999-10-29

This is a splendid compendium of articles and case studies by some of the leading practitioners in the field of dispute resolution. A true magnum opus which is worth the price. It takes the "fluff" out of negotiation literature and presents a welcome mix of theory and practice.

Book Description

This is the incredible story of one man's vision of world commerce. William Paterson was a businessman and economic thinker far ahead of his time, whose place in history is assured. He founded the Bank of England, he helped broker the Treaty of Union between Scotland and England and, above all else, he envisaged a world where nations could trade unencumbered by monopolies and restrictive practices, and companies could be funded with international investment. All more than 300 years ago. In an attempt to realise his dream he set off on a daring voyage across half the globe to establish a trading emporium for the world at Darien, Panama. In the tradition of Longitude, The Man Who Saw the Future is the exciting story of buccaneers, political intrigue, economic vision, failed dreams, warring countries and dogged determination in the face of adversity.

Book Description

This early book was a prelude to the multi-causal and multi-dimensional approach that scholars see reflected in Weber's later writings.

Selling Machine, by sales consultants Diane Sanchez and Stephen E. Heiman, advances a perfectly logical but all-too-rarely followed business concept: because sales revenue is the driving force behind practically every company, all employees should share responsibility for maximizing it. After working with major firms such as Coca-Cola, DuPont, Hallmark, and Chase Manhattan, the authors concluded that top companies actively encourage everyone--from top to bottom--to help the sales force do its job. The related principles that these firms adhere to are outlined and explained here, and then applied to the types of problems that salespeople face daily.

Book Description

Using dozens of examples from some of America's best-run companies, the top executives of Miller Heiman, the world's leading sales-consulting firm, reveal their winning strategy for business success: Focus every member of an organization on the vital business of selling.

Customer Reviews:

Selling Machine reinforces modern selling methods!.......2005-10-22

The message to be made to companies...to survive in today's highly competitive marketplace, everyone, not just the sales department,from top to bottom, must be selling to help the salesforce do its job.

Selling Machine proposes that the whole company focus on the customer. The book wraps up with emphasis on the value of teamwork and how teams can enhance customer focus.

Selling Machine: making everybody in your organization sell!.......2000-05-12

Reading the books written by Miller, Heiman and Tuleja (The New Conceptual Selling, Successful Large Account Management and The New Strategic Selling) changed the way I looked at complex sales processes completely and increased sales success of the companies I work(ed) for dramatically. Their books (and excellent training courses) represent a customer-centric vision rarely to be found in other writings (and training courses) on how to sell.

The Selling Machine gives an excellent overview of the Miller-Heiman philosophy and goes one step further by propagating that all employees should share responsibility in enhancing revenues by supporting the sales force. A must-read for everybody in an organisation - be it sales or marketing, administration or reception desk, CEO or his/her driver. All who understand that in the end it is the customer who is paying your salary. So better make sure all people on board are helping to get sales in.

Especially a good read for people who want to get acquainted with Miller-Heiman's work or who just think they have not enough time to read all the other books I mentioned.
