The Power of Identity - Kenneth Hoover - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Power of Identity - Kenneth Hoover - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

"After a long period of neglect, political scientists are again noticing identity politics. Hoover′s book is beautifully written, brief by comprehensive, and appropriate for a wide range of undergraduate courses. Most impressive, Hoover links micro-level processes (human development and the construction of individual identities) with macro-politics (the formation and maintenance of organized systems of power), examining, among other topics, gender, multiculturalism, and the sources and consequences of democracy and authoritarianism." —Alec Stone SweetUniveristy of California, Irvine

The Intuitive Principal - Karen M. Dyer - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

"This works! The authors speak boldly about intuition and then back it up with examples. I recommend it resoundingly!" Penelope Swenson, Assistant Superintendent Mojave Unified School District Instructional leader, manager, symbolic leader, and servant leader are some of the many different roles that principals play. Yet, as we enter the 21st century, principals will need to go beyond traditional leadership roles and become "intuitive" enough to know which of these positions, singularly or in combination, is most effective in producing desired results. Great leaders have always valued intuition as one of their most vital skills. Now aspiring, new, and veteran principals can learn to use intuitive leadership as a vehicle to go beyond traditional leadership roles and produce greater results. Key factors include: - - Intuitive ways of knowing—an examination of the research - - Behaviors of intuitive leadership—examples from real-life - - Intuitive communication—reading the silent language - - Contradictions of leadership—the impact of various leadership roles This book will be a "how to" guide for aspiring, new, and veteran principals who are being asked to lead in qualitatively different ways. It will assist them as they "intuit" when, where, how, and why they should assume the role of principal as leader, learner, communicator, servant, and / or catalyst for change. Each topic will be supported by research and include practical applications supported by real-life examples.

Psychology without Foundations - Paul Stenner - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

Psychology without Foundations - Paul Stenner - Bog - SAGE Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

For many years, for many people social psychology has been deemed a discipline in crisis. This new book proposes a way out of the crisis by letting go of the idea that psychology needs new foundations or a new identity, whether biological, discursive or cognitive. The psychological is not narrowly confined to any one aspect of human experience; it is quite literally everywhere. The book proposes a strong process-oriented approach to the psychological, which studies events or occasions. Aspects of experience such as communication or embodiment are treated as thoroughly mediated - the product of multiple intersecting relationships between the biological, the psychic and the social. The outcome is an image of a mobile, reflexively founded discipline which follows the psychological wherever it takes us, from the depths of embodiment to the complexities of modern global politics.
