The Manager as Leader
Authors: Simerson B.  Keith , Venn Michael L.
Published: August 2024

Against the backdrop of corporate downsizings and rightsizings that have forever blurred the line between leaders and followers,The Manager as Leaderpresents practical strategies, tools, and techniques for developing the leadership mindset and applying it on a daily basis. The book introduces the Contextual Leadership Model, which identifies nine fundamental leadership roles and six common contexts in which leadership is exercised, and guides readers toward matching their roles and actions to the particular context at hand—as well as making adjustments when context changes. Packed with illustrative examples, diagnostic tools, worksheets, and other interactive elements, and featuring an extensive listing of resources,The Manager as Leaderis a hands-on guide to the art of leadership, whether you are an executive, manager, supervisor, or aspiring leader anywhere in the organization.

An invisible line between individual contributor and leader was once thought to exist, separating leaders from followers. Two decades of downsizings and rightsizings have forever blurred this distinction and left us with three fundamental challenges: (1) How can an organization elicit leadership from everyone?; (2) How can those who choose to lead influence others to perform more effectively and efficiently than they ever thought possible?; (3) How can leaders continue to be successful when the environment in which they lead is constantly changing?

Addressing these challenges requires a certain awareness and nimbleness on behalf of the person thinking and acting as the leader, regardless of their formal position.The Manager as Leaderpresents practical strategies, tools, and techniques for developing the leadership mindset and applying it on a daily basis. The book introduces the Contextual Leadership Model, which identifies nine fundamental leadership roles and six common contexts in which leadership is exercised, and guides readers toward matching their roles and actions to the particular context at hand; it also shows readers how to anticipate changes in context and adjust their roles and actions accordingly. Packed with illustrative examples, diagnostic tools, worksheets, and other interactive elements, and featuring an extensive listing of resources,The Manager as Leaderis a hands-on guide to the art of leadership, whether you are an executive, manager, supervisor, or aspiring leader anywhere in the organization.
A Military History of Britain
Authors: Black Jeremy
Published: August 2024

Starting his account at a time when Britain was poised to rule the world's oceans—and much of its land as well—prolific historian Jeremy Black details the nation's involvement in global affairs from the late-18th century to the present.A Military History of Britainis an account of military structures and cultures, and relevant socio-political contexts, as well as of conflicts. As in all of his writing, Black seeks to challenge conventional assumptions and offer illuminating new perspectives.

Black begins by setting the background to British military history, in particular the anti-(large) army ideology, the maritime tradition, and the growing geo-political rivalry with France. After the defeat of the French in North America, Britain would become the world's leading maritime power. The 19th Century would see tension between Britain and the new United States, France, Germany, and an increasing emphasis on imperial conquests. Organized in three parts: Britain as Imperial Parent; Britain as Imperial Rival; and Britain as Imperial Partner. A primary focus of this account will be the 20th century, examining Britain and World War I (including Britain as a world power and issues of imperial overstretch) and World War II (and the subsequent wars of Imperial Retention in Malaya, Kenya, and Cyprus). As in all of his writing, Black seeks to challenge conventional assumptions, and offer illuminating new perspectives.

Black details the involvement of Britain in global affairs up to the present. Recent issues of continuing importance include Britain as a nuclear power, the end of the East of Suez policy, NATO membership; out-of-area conflict (from the Falklands to Iraq), and the adjustment to new global roles. This wide-ranging and broadly-based account is designed for students and for the general reader.

The New Humanitarians
Authors: Stout Chris E.
Published: August 2024

From Braille Without Borders and Unite for Sight, to Geekcorps and PeaceWorks, humanitarian groups are working worldwide largely in undeveloped countries to better the lives of the residents. Whether they are empowering people with schools for the blind, prosthetic limbs, the devices to understand and use technology, or the information to work for civil peace, the men and women of these agencies offer tremendous talent to their causes, great dedication and, sometimes, even risk their lives to complete their missions. Working in war or civil war zones, humanitarians with nonprofits, non-governmental agencies, and university-connected centers and foundations have been injured, kidnapped, or killed. Now terrorist events and war crimes are more and more often bringing these self-sacrificing workers into the national spotlight by media headlines. Their work is, doubtless, remarkable. And so too are the stories of how they developed - including the defining moments when their founders felt they could no longer stand by and do nothing. In this set of books, founders and top officials from humanitarian organizations established in the last 50 years spotlight how and why they began their organizations, what their greatest victories and challenges have been, and how they run the organizations, down to where they get their funding and how they spend it to grow the group and its efforts. Led by Chris E. Stout, named Humanitarian of the Year by the American Psychological Association, the contributors here come from across training disciplines including psychology, medicine, technology, science, politics, social work, and business.

Stout, who has worked in Latin American terrorist zones, in Vietnam, and along the Amazon in Ecuador with Flying Doctors of America, has chosen to feature a sample of humanitarian groups across four primary areas - medicine, environment, education, and social justice. He also concentrates on what he calls guerilla humanitarians - those who step into unsafe or unhealthy conditions despite the dangers. There is also a concentration on those that have been very successful with on-the-ground-guerilla-innovations without a lot of bureaucracy or baloney. Above all, They are rebels with a cause whose actions speak louder than mere words, Stout explains. They have all felt a moral duty to serve as vectors of change. In addition to being psychologically insightful, these volumes hold invaluable practical information.
The Next Great Clash
Authors: Levin Michael
Published: August 2024

These are uncertain times. The balance of power is continually shifting worldwide. InThe Next Great Clash, Michael Levin presents evidence of a global political order on the verge of a historic power shift from West to East. A reemerging China is the only nation with the latent capacity to challenge American hegemony, and Levin demonstrates that such challenges to the status quo usually lead to war. Russia, even in its diminished capacity since the end of the Cold War, has deftly positioned itself as the swing player in a future conflict between the United States and China.

Levin contends that, since the turn of the century, the global War on Terror has distracted the United States from these developments, as China and Russia draw closer together in an alliance that may well displace American primacy.The Next Great Clash, augmented by personal experience in China, Russia, and the United States, combines years of scholarly research and political analysis—along with a riveting and up-to-date history of Chinese-Russian relations. This bold and iconoclastic tour de horizon is a must-read for anyone interested in international affairs.
The Offensive Art
Authors: Freedman Leonard
Published: August 2024

The Offensive Artis an arch and sometimes caustic look at the art of political satire as practiced in democratic, monarchical, and authoritarian societies around the world over the past century-together with the efforts by governmental, religious, and corporate authorities to suppress it by censorship, intimidation, policy, and fatwa. Examples are drawn from the full spectrum of satiric genres, including novels, plays, verse, songs, essays, cartoons, cabarets and revues, movies, television, and the Internet. The multicultural and multimedia breadth and historical depth of Freedman's comparative approach frames his novel assessment of the role of political satire in today's post-9/11 world, and in particular the cross-cultural controversies it generates, such as the global protests against the Jyllands-Posten cartoons.

In a tongue-in-cheek style peppered with the world's best one-liners from the last century,The Offensive Artrecounts the acrimonious and often perilous cat-and-mouse games between political satirists and their censors and inhibitors through the last century in America (especially FDR, LBJ, Nixon, Reagan, Clinton, and Bush II and in wartime), Britain (especially Churchill, Thatcher, Blair and the Royals), Germany (Hitler to the present), Russia (Stalin to the present), China (Mao to the present), India (from the Raj on), and the Middle East (from 1920s Egypt to today). Freedman focuses on the role and transformation of satire during shifts from authoritarian to democratic systems in such places as South Africa, Argentina, and Eastern Europe. He surveys the state of satire throughout the world today, identifying the most dangerous countries for practitioners of the offensive art, and presents his findings as to the political efficacy of satire in provoking change.

This research was conducted because the New Student Admission (PSB) still uses a manual recording method using a book, which causes the committee to have to do repetitive recording and tasks, which are sometimes ineffective and time consuming. In fact, data processing of prospective students is also not managed properly. The use of handwritten records will make it difficult for the committee to read them, especially with the increasing number of new student applicants every year. Therefore, the recapitulation and data entry process takes longer to process. The data collection methods used in this research include observation and literature study. While in system development, the Waterfall development method is used. The resulting online PSB information system provides a fairly appropriate solution to reduce existing constraints. This web-based online PSB information system allows access to information anywhere and anytime, because it is based on the web. Thus, every prospective student who wants to register can do so online, overcoming the obstacles and limitations that existed in the previous manual system.

Published: August 2024

Background In South Africa, sport is a compulsory activity in the majority of schools and most of the population that play soccer at schools are amateur players. Many schools in Durban have astroturf courts on which the scholars play soccer. Astroturf is a synthetic surface that has gained much popularity due to it being cost effective and easy to maintain. Despite the benefits associated with playing on astroturf, one of the concerns is increased risk if injury to the players. Over the last decade, soccer injuries have become commonplace amongst scholars, with the most affected age group being between 13–15 years of age. The aim of this study is to determine the injury profile of amateur scholar soccer players playing on a synthetic surface at a private school in the eThekwini municipality. Methodology The research study is a quantitative study with a descriptive design. An organised, quantitative questionnaire was handed out to 108 registered learners at Al-Falaah College. The responses of the questionnaire were used to establish the demographic and injury profile of the soccer players in this study. Results A 100% response rate was recorded. The majority (n=24; 22.2%) of the learners were in the 14 year age group of Indian (n=98; 90.7%) ethnicity. The most common site of injury was recorded as the knee joint (n=54; 50%), followed by the ankle joint (n=36; 33.3%), wrist (n=29; 26.9%) and foot (n=28; 25.9%). The most common mechanism of injury reportedly occurred during tackling (n=61; 56.5%) and the least number of injuries were reported as occurring during heading (n=4; 3.7%). Most of the participants were found to be using incorrect footwear when playing on a synthetic surface, such as, studded boots (n=63; 58.3%) and sneakers (n=39; 36.1%). Conclusion The majority (79.6%) of the injuries reported were characterised as mild to moderate. The lower extremity was the most frequently injured, specifically the knee and ankle joint. Ligament and muscular injuries were the most common injury affecting the lower extremity. Younger individuals are more likely to face injury when playing soccer on a synthetic surface.

Argumentación, retórica y pensamiento crítico: pilares del proceso educativo
Authors: Gómez Irma Constanza
Published: August 2024

Nowadays, communication skills are of utmost importance in all social, academic and work environments. These tools are fundamental because they allow a correct integration in these spaces, providing the security of being active agents and transformers of realities based on their actions, thoughts and ideas. When these skills are not well developed or do not exist in individuals, they face disadvantages that hinder their progress in various processes. Faced with this reality, it is necessary to have good communicative competence. Schools must give priority to the formation of competent human beings, with solid rhetorical, argumentative and reflective bases, capable of contributing to the environments in which they find themselves and of transforming their reality. Considering the above, this text aims to present some reflections on the importance that academic institutions should give to the development of oral argumentation, rhetoric and critical thinking as fundamental bases of education.

Abstract. The dispersion of pollutants in the atmosphere, whether from industrial emissions, wildfires, or other sources, poses significant challenges to air quality management and environmental protection. Understanding the behavior of plumes is crucial for predicting their dispersion patterns and potential impacts on human health and the environment. In this work, we present a new plume rise scheme based on heat transport. The idea at the basis of the new algorithm is the same as the actual scheme embedded in the Lagrangian Particle Model SPRAY-WEB. The temperature difference between the ambient and the plume and the vertical velocity of the plume are expressed on a fixed Eulerian grid. The particles are assigned with an equivalent momentum, temperature, mass, and density, transported as scalar quantities with the particles following the Lagrangian description of the motion. This allows us to reproduce the entrainment phenomenon as a mixing of two fluids (environmental air and plume) with different temperatures: the resulting temperature is given by Richmann's law. The results obtained with the old plume rise algorithm and the new one are compared with Briggs (1975) analytical curve in the case of an idealized atmosphere with a neutral stratification and a constant horizontal wind and with experimental data. From the comparison in an ideal atmosphere, it emerged that with the new algorithm, the plume reaches a higher height than with the old one and the asymptotic trend obtained with both models follows the Briggs curve. As for the comparison with the measurements, the results obtained with the new algorithm are in better agreement with the experimental data than the old one.

Abstract. Intensive irrigation is known to alleviate crop water stress and alter regional climate, which can in turn influence air quality, with ramifications for human health and food security. However, the interplay between irrigation, climate and air pollution in especially the simultaneously intensively irrigated and heavily polluted regions in China has rarely been studied. Here we incorporated a dynamic irrigation scheme into a regional climate-air quality coupled model to examine the potential impacts of irrigation on ozone (O3) and fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in China. Results show that irrigation increases the concentrations of primary air pollutants, but reduces O3 concentration by 3–4 ppb. PM2.5, nitrate and ammonium rise by 28 %, 70 % and 40 %, respectively, upon introducing irrigation, with secondary formation contributing to 5–10 %, ~60 %, and 10–30 %, respectively. High humidity and low temperature are the top two factors promoting the formation of ammonium nitrate aerosols. To mitigate these adverse effects on PM2.5 air quality, we found that a 20 % combined reduction in NH3 and NOx emissions is more effective compared with individual emission reductions, while the enhancement in O3 due to the NOx reduction can be completely offset by irrigation itself. Our study highlights the potential benefits of irrigation regarding O3 pollution but possible problems regarding PM2.5 pollution under currently prevalent irrigation modes and anthropogenic emission scenarios, emphasizing the need for an integrated approach to balance water conservation, air pollution, climate change mitigation and food security in the face of development needs.
Suspended in time? Peripheralised and “left behind” places in Germany
Authors: Royer Jeroen , Leibert Tim
Published: August 2024

Abstract. The term “left behind” has regained attention with the increasing signs of political dissatisfaction in the Global North, e.g. the rise of right-wing populist parties and politicians. In Germany, terms such as abgehängte Regionen (suspended regions) or “structurally weak” regions are often employed as alternatives. However, there is a certain fuzziness in these terminologies, as they often encompass different spatial scales and temporal dependencies and refer to a variety of regions, e.g. deindustrialising cities as well as peripheral and remote rural areas. Our approach conceptualises “left-behindness” as an outcome of peripheralisation. This allows for a theory-based selection of social, economic, and infrastructural indicators to operationalise left-behindness in Germany at the NUTS3 (nomenclature of territorial units for statistics) level with combining a factor analysis and a k-means cluster analysis. The former resulted in four dimensions of left-behindness with distinct spatial patterns, leading to the classification of six regional types, characterised by varying scores for the four dimensions.
“Soy una mujer que combate”: María Luisa Carnelli, reportera en las trincheras republicanas
Authors: Rogers Geraldine
Published: August 2024

Durante su estadía en España entre 1935 y 1938, la escritora argentina María Luisa Carnelli ejerció como reportera en medios impresos antifascistas del ámbito comunista de Madrid y Buenos Aires, contribuyendo a la circulación informativa y cultural a ambos lados del océano. A través de sus crónicas Carnelli adquirió visibilidad pública, poniendo a la luz sus textos, su imagen y su nombre en el espacio intercontinental. Se trata de un hecho relevante dado que la aparición en la esfera pública era restringida para las mujeres, y más aún como reporteras en zonas de riesgo. Desempeñarse como reportera en una etapa de emergencia insurreccional, de represión y de guerra implicó un desafío y a la vez una oportunidad para una mujer que al hacerlo combatía simultáneamente en dos frentes: la causa del antifascismo y la de la afirmación intelectual como mujer en el movimiento general de su emancipación.

The Impact of Entrepreneurial Orientation and Profit Growth Performance of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises and the Influence of the Environment
Authors: Omisakin Olufemi Muibi
Published: August 2024

This study examines the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation (EO) and profit growth performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and evaluates the moderating role of environmental factors on the EO profit growth performance relationship. The research investigated the effects of EO on the growth performance of SMEs using a multidimensional model of EO to test the hypotheses’ relationship between EO and SME profit growth performance from data collected from SME owners, managers, and management. Data was collected through a survey questionnaire administered via email and some social medial platforms. The data collected was analyzed using Partial Least Squares (PLS)- structural equation model (SEM) software. It was found EO positively influences SME profit growth performance and dynamic and munificence environments moderate the relationship between EO SME profit growth performance. It is suggested SME owners use these two environmental factors to facilitate improvement of the correlation between the EO SME profit growth performance.________________________________________

This article discusses Arabic Language Learning (mufrodat) in class VIII students of Mts Minhajul Haq Purwakarta by using Crossword media because the learning outcomes of mufrodat in Arabic language learning in general students' scores still have not reached the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM), this is because the Arabic language learning process is still considered difficult by students. Also, the Arabic language learning process still feels monotonous for students. This study aims to improve the mufrodat learning outcomes of 8th-grade students of Mts Minhajul Haq in Arabic Language Subjects using Crossword media (al-kalimat al-mutaqothi'ah). The method used by researchers is the classroom action research method (PTK) with data collection techniques through observation, tests, and field notes. The results of this study indicate that Crossword media (TTS) can improve students' mufrodat learning outcomes in Arabic language learning in class VIII Mts Minhajul Haq Purwakarta. This can be seen from the average pretest results of 58.67, then the average results of Mts Minhajul Haq students have increased from the posttest results to 89.65. Thus this Crossword media can be an alternative solution for Arabic language teachers because Crossword has characteristics including; fun, easy, provides challenges for students, and adds curiosity to students to find answers.
