A guide for individuals and organizations navigating the complex and ambiguous Future of Work
Foreword by New York Times columnist and best-selling author Thomas L. Friedman
Technology is changing work as we know it. Cultural norms are undergoing tectonic shifts. A global pandemic proves that we are inextricably connected whether we choose to be or not. So much change, so quickly, is disorienting. It's undermining our sense of identity and challenging our ability to adapt. But where so many see these changes as threatening, Heather McGowan and Chris Shipley see the opportunity to open the flood gates of human potential--if we can change the way we think about work and leadership. They have dedicated the last 5 years to understanding how technical, business, and cultural shifts affecting the workplace have brought us to this crossroads, The result is a powerful and practical guide to the future of work for leaders and employees. The future can be better, but only if we let go of our attachment to our traditional (and disappearing) ideas about careers, and what a "good job" looks like.
Blending wisdom from interviews with hundreds of executives, The Adaptation Advantage explains the profound changes happening in the world of work and posits the solution: new ways to think about careers that detach our sense of pride and personal identity from our job title, and connect it to our sense of purpose. Activating purpose, the authors suggest, will inherently motivate learning, engagement, empowerment, and lead to new forms of pride and identity throughout the workforce. Only when we let go of our rigid career identities can we embrace and appreciate the joys of learning and adapting to new realities--and help our organizations do the same.
Of course, making this transition is hard. It requires leaders who can attract and motivate cognitively diverse teams fueled by a strong sense of purpose in an environment of psychological safety--despite fierce competition and external pressures. Adapting to the future of work has always called for strong leadership. Now, as a pandemic disrupts so many aspects of work, adapting is a leadership imperative. The Adaptation Advantage is an essential guide to help leaders meet that challenge.
As the twentieth century roared on, transformative technologies--from trains, trams, and automobiles to radios and loudspeakers--fundamentally changed the sounds of the Egyptian streets. The cacophony of everyday life grew louder, and the Egyptian press featured editorials calling for the regulation of not only mechanized and amplified sounds, but also the voices of street vendors, the music of wedding processions, and even the traditional funerary wails. Ziad Fahmy offers the first historical examination of the changing soundscapes of urban Egypt, highlighting the mundane sounds of street life, while "listening" to the voices of ordinary people as they struggle with state authorities for ownership of the streets.
Interweaving infrastructural, cultural, and social history, Fahmy analyzes the sounds of modernity, using sounded sources as an analytical tool for examining the past. Street Sounds also reveals a political dimension of noise by demonstrating how the growing middle classes used sound to distinguish themselves from the Egyptian masses. This book contextualizes sound, layering historical analysis with a sensory dimension, bringing us closer to the Egyptian streets as lived and embodied by everyday people.

Описание: This book is a lively, comprehensive and timely reader on the music video, capitalising on cross-disciplinary research expertise, which represents a substantial academic engagement with the music video, a mediated form and practice that still remains relatively under-explored in a 21st century context. The music video has remained suspended between two distinct poles. On the one hand, the music video as the visual sheen of late capitalism, at the intersection of celebrity studies and postmodernism. On the other hand, the music video as art, looking to a prehistory of avant-garde film-making while perpetually pushing forward the digital frontier with a taste for anarchy, controversy, and the integration of special effects into a form designed to be disseminated across digital platforms. In this way, the music video virally re-engenders debates about high art and low culture. This collection presents a comprehensive account of the music video from a contemporary 21st century perspective. This entails revisiting key moments in the canonical history of the music video, exploring its articulations of sexuality and gender, examining its functioning as a form of artistic expression between music, film and video art, and following the music video’s dissemination into the digital domain, considering how digital media and social media have come to re-invent the forms and functions of the music video, well beyond the limits of “music television”.

CLAUDIA LANTOS was no stranger to adversity herself, having had 3 concussions from sailing accidents, moving to different continents by herself twice, whilst setting up her own businesses, and recovery taking up to 2.5 yrs. The learnings she took from those events, together with the insights from many resilient and amazing leaders she worked with in her career, will help you to see your adversity in business as an advantage and with some humour, as she did, developing an advantageous mindset, gaining valuable insights and new approaches to tackle almost anything, coming out stronger.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
No-one likes adversity and Claudia Lantos is no exception. But while the bad times are never embraced at first, adversity has enabled Claudia to reinvent herself several times to her advantage. Over a period of around 10 years, adversity struck Claudia in the form of five car accidents--of one which took her about nine months to recover from--and three concussions from sailing accidents while building her coaching business in The Netherlands and later in Australia. Claudia has turned these hard knocks into brilliant insights for her clients and an advantageous mindset for herself. This book sums up her learnings to give anyone who wants to turn adversity to their advantage new approaches, to tackle anything that is thrown at them and come out stronger.
Combining her psychological and coaching training with her corporate executive search and legal background, Claudia has built excellent insight into corporate dynamics, leadership development and behavioural issues, servicing a wide range of organisations. In the last 25 years, Claudia prides herself in having worked with executive leaders and continued to consult them, through the bigger part of their careers.
As a former national-level sports enthusiast at karate and offshore sailing, and accredited in organisational coaching, she is specialised in executive coaching for high performers in leadership roles, focused on a strengths based, behavioural change and growth mindset approach, using the adult learning principles of positive psychology.
Claudia started her career as a Lawyer in Labour Law and IP in The Netherlands, Europe in 1993, and she has been a member of country management teams based in Amsterdam and Singapore for a UK-listed professional services group, setting up new business service offerings and building and managing small teams. She successfully led her own executive coaching and executive search business in the Netherlands for eight years, before settling down in Bondi Beach, Australia in 2012.

The eyes of troubled youth are communicating in all moments.
Hurt people hurt people. Our children can become violent, detached, or shut down when early development is toxic, severely disrupted and is met with significant adverse childhood experiences. Children are our nation's greatest natural resource and their emotional, mental and physiological well-being are at stake. What can we do? We begin with the awareness and research that adversity just doesn't happen to a child -- it attacks and hijacks a child's brain, body and nervous system function reprograming how they react and respond to all life. For educators, counselors, social workers, mental health professionals and law enforcement--this book presents the neurobiology of adversity and trauma in youth and the resiliency of hope and mindfulness ... and how to help.
