Описание: Emergency Services Leadership: A Contemporary Approach offers a comprehensive view of the historical developments of leadership models, presents a variety of leadership theories, and explores how various theories apply to current emergency services leadership roles. The authors address how leadership has evolved from the theories of "position and authority" to more contemporary approaches in which leadership is expressed in terms of influence relations, servitude, risk agencies, and transformational change agents. Best practices for making ethical, compassionate, and competent leadership decisions are also discussed. The ideal introduction to leadership concepts in modern-day emergency services agencies, Emergency Services Leadership: A Contemporary Approach is appropriate for EMS, fire services, law enforcement, emergency management, and military courses and is an ideal resource for department-specific training programs, especially for officer development. The authors weave personal experiences, interviews with current emergency services leaders, and leadership points to ponder throughout the chapters. End-of-chapter activities allow readers to explore their leadership capabilities and apply concepts presented in the text. The author team brings their extensive experience in emergency services, military application, and leadership research to this text. All of the authors are involved in higher education levels and serve in leadership capacities in various arenas.

Negative thoughts greatly impact our abilities and motivation. A positive thinking person will wake in the morning and feel the normal aches and pains. They will get out of bed and think, "I'd better get moving so I'll feel stronger and work the kinks out of my muscles." The negative thinking person will think, "I feel so bad and hurt so much I think I'll stay in bed." Their motivation and functionality are now impacted so that if they do get out of bed, they will feel the pain all day long. They will do less and complain more, further crippling their immune system from functioning properly.

Sleeping is a normal and essential part of our lives. It takes up about 30% of our lives, which means that if you live to be 90 years old, you'll spend 32 of those years sleeping Yet, it's not clear why we need to sleep nor what's going on in our brain while we do. There are plenty of theories, but nobody knows for sure.
If you think about it, it's certainly quite odd. While you sleep, you're not doing anything, at least so it seems. Your body is paralyzed, you're not conscious, and you're totally vulnerable. Yet, there must be something behind it all that's worth that risk.
Pondering the nature of sleep has been going on since the dawn of the human species. However, the general attitude towards sleeping changed throughout the course of history. From a natural cure, sleep somehow unjustly turned into a waste of time for many people. Ever since Edison invented the lightbulb, people have started staying up later. Where before they went to bed with the setting of the sun, now they stay awake long into the night so they can do more. Sadly, the importance of sleep has been underestimated for too long. In the 20th Century, people started treating sleep almost as if it were an illness. That's change slightly in modern days. We now tolerate our need for sleep, although not too enthusiastically. We still recognize it's vital, but we don't know why exactly why it is. Unfortunately, our knowledge of sleep is still fairly limited and based on intuition, but, on the plus side, there's much more we can learn about it.
A perpetual mist has enveloped the land. After decades of silence everything within its grasp has wilted or died. The Realm of Silence has become nothing but a dark shadow amongst the Cass Lands. If anyone so much as whistles they are hunted down by a man known simply as The Lieutenant; his tracking skills aided by horrific surgical enhancements.
In a small village lives Greg, a boy verging on adulthood who finds himself face to face with a troll. His life is only saved when the village's exile intervenes by playing music. It may save their lives in the moment, but has sentenced them to prison...or worse.
Miles away The Lieutenant hears the music and begins his hunt for the duo. On the run, Greg and Jarred search for The Pipers, a group of musical rebels.
Yet it seems the rebels are as insubstantial as the mist they seek to lift.
