Facilitating Breakthrough
Author: Adam Kahane
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
ISBN: 152309205X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Making progress on complex, problematic situations requires a new approach to working together: transformative facilitation, a structured and creative process for removing the obstacles to fluid forward movement. It is becoming less straightforward for people to move forward together. They face increasing complexity and decreasing control. They need to work with more people from across more divides. In such situations, the most common ways of advancing—some people telling others what to do, or everyone just doing what they think they need to—aren't adequate. One better way is through facilitating. But the most common approaches to facilitating—bossy vertical directing from above or collegial horizontal accompanying from alongside—aren't adequate. They often leave the participants frustrated and yearning for breakthrough. This book describes a new approach: transformative facilitation. It doesn't choose either the bossy vertical or the collegial horizontal approach: it cycles back and forth between them. Rather than forcing or cajoling, the facilitator removes the obstacles that stand in the way of people contributing and connecting equitably. It enables people to bring their whole selves to the process. This book is for anyone who helps people work together to transform their situation, be it a professional facilitator, manager, consultant, coach, chairperson, organizer, mediator, stakeholder, or friend. It offers a broad and bold vision of the contribution that facilitation can make to helping people collaborate to make progress.

Permissionless Innovation: The Continuing Case for Comprehensive Technological Freedom
Author: Adam Thierer
Publisher: Mercatus Center at George Mason University
ISBN: 1942951248
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
Will innovators be forced to seek the blessing of public officials before they develop and deploy new devices and services, or will they be generally left free to experiment with new technologies and business models? In this book, Adam Thierer argues that if the former disposition, “the precautionary principle,” trumps the latter, “permissionless innovation,” the result will be fewer services, lower-quality goods, higher prices, diminished economic growth, and a decline in the overall standard of living. When public policy is shaped by “precautionary principle” reasoning, it poses a serious threat to technological progress, economic entrepreneurialism, and long-run prosperity. By contrast, permissionless innovation has fueled the success of the Internet and much of the modern tech economy in recent years, and it is set to power the next great industrial revolution—if we let it.

The Peter Principle
Author: Dr. Laurence J. Peter
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062359495
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
The classic #1 New York Times bestseller that answers the age-old question Why is incompetence so maddeningly rampant and so vexingly triumphant? The Peter Principle, the eponymous law Dr. Laurence J. Peter coined, explains that everyone in a hierarchy—from the office intern to the CEO, from the low-level civil servant to a nation’s president—will inevitably rise to his or her level of incompetence. Dr. Peter explains why incompetence is at the root of everything we endeavor to do—why schools bestow ignorance, why governments condone anarchy, why courts dispense injustice, why prosperity causes unhappiness, and why utopian plans never generate utopias. With the wit of Mark Twain, the psychological acuity of Sigmund Freud, and the theoretical impact of Isaac Newton, Dr. Laurence J. Peter and Raymond Hull’s The Peter Principle brilliantly explains how incompetence and its accompanying symptoms, syndromes, and remedies define the world and the work we do in it.

The Unfoldment of Man
Author: Ida Mingle
Publisher: Health Research Books
ISBN: 9780787306175
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
A series of Ten Lessons that discusses the Mosaic account of creation, which marks a new order of man, the beginning of the unfoldment of the _Son of Man_ type. Ida Mingle, teacher and founder of the School of Livable Christianity, writes that before this time both man and nature were involved in the wrath of consciousness, so now they were to be subdued by _waters_ (tranquility of soul). God, acting with Himself, through His Creative Will, caused the light to arise and the darkness to descend into the depths. Man became the formative power, through the Jehovah God of Himself, and was given all power, mastery and dominion over the _living creatures_ (Ideas of consciousness). The study of these lessons reveals to the reader how consciousness (Man) unfolded. Since Man is to be given a new Genesis, beginning at the harvest period of this age, it is imperative that he come into illumination respecting himself.
