Climbing out of the Rabbit Hole by Terry Woods Pdf

Just like Alice in Wonderland, Michael lives in a crazy world. As a drug addict, he has tried to climb out of the rabbit hole for many years. His struggle to overcome his addiction becomes a journey for all of us. Michaels letters from prison unfold like episodes in a reality show. His sponsor is our hero. Bobs tough-love letters and guidance show us what most people fail to do in recovery and what causes them to relapse. We are there, watching Michael build the courage to put the not-so-easy Twelve Steps into action. Fortunately, we are also there when he finds his way out of the rabbit hole.

Consultation for Organizational Change by Anthony F. Buono,David W. Jamieson Pdf

This volume is a joint publication in the Research in Management Consulting and Contemporary Trends in Organizational Change and Development series. This dual focus reflects the reality that consulting for organizational change is a special type of management consultation, a complex field of endeavor that requires a broad range of skills and competencies. To be truly effective, change-related consulting requires a unique client-consultant relationship, a special set of consulting skills, an expertise in human and organizational systems, and significant personal qualities. It is in high demand in a world full of change. Yet, we still know relatively little theoretically about this type of consulting and have relatively little empirical evidence about what actually works and why. As the contributors amply illustrate, the Organization Development (OD) field has a well developed set of frameworks, technologies, and models of change. Still we need to focus on and learn more about the role of the OD consultant as a special kind of change agent. A goal of this joint volume is to increase that specific body of knowledge and provide an illustration of much needed collaboration in bringing all possible resources to bear on our understanding of an increasingly critical and essential form of consulting.

The Coterie by Vinod Kaul Pdf

What happens when the passionate and secretive world of fashion is pried open by an outsider - a straight-talking professional of the business world? Anwar is hired by the National Fashion Council to develop the business side of the industry. However, with his own passionate side re-kindled, he steps beyond the immediate façade of glamour. He discovers two worlds – one of intense talent and creativity to make beautiful outfits and the other equally intense but of baser intent - jealousies, hate, narcissism, exploitation and the relentless need to control and self-aggrandize. The gatekeepers of the NFC led by veteran designer Meera and provocateur Dinesh thwart any attempt to challenge their stranglehold on the industry. However, having sipped the elixir of fashion and with missionary zeal, Anwar decides to confront them with the help of his ex-business school colleagues who vex their own ambitions and frustrations. A tabloid journalist with little scruples, Shailaja, waits in the wings to expose all the seedy doings of the fashion world. Where will the no-holds barred conflict end and who will be destroyed along the way?

The Kaleidoscope of Lived Curricula by Karin Ann Lewis,Kimberly Banda,Martha Briseno,Eric J. Weber Pdf

Within the context of recent, and ongoing, plural pandemics such as COVID-19 up/ending lives, social and racial chaos and catastrophe, political pressures, and economic convulsions, The Kaleidoscope of Lived Curricula: Learning Through a Confluence of Crises offers a journey through a collection of scholarly reflective creative pieces--stories of lived curricula. Like a kaleidoscope filled with loose pieces of simple colored glass and objects transforming into an infinite variety of beautiful forms and patterns with the slightest turn, the collection of pieces in this book reflect images of the sky that nurtures life; sun that illuminates understanding; earth that shifts and grounds us; fire that is primal, intending to spark and extend curricular and pedagogical conversations and understandings. This book provides a lens through which to observe and experience how plural pandemics shifted the lived curricula--the colored glass and objects in the lives of others--to surface, contextualize, confront, and curate challenges, as well as celebrate the courageous and elevate and empower marginalized groups to relate, learn, and heal through stories of lived curricula. This beautiful collection brings readers to an awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the lived curricula unlike they have ever experienced before.

The Dark Side of Alice in Wonderland by Angela Youngman Pdf

A unique exploration of the character, the author, and the many transformations of Alice in modern culture—often in edgy and menacing ways. The Dark Side of Alice in Wonderland is the first investigation of the vast range of darker, more threatening aspects of this famous story, and the way Alice has been transformed over time. Although the children’s story has been in print for over 150 years, the mysteries and rumors surrounding the story and its creator Lewis Carroll have continued to grow. Alice has been transformed—this is the Alice of horror films, Halloween, murder and mystery, spectral ghosts, political satire, mental illnesses, weird feasts, Lolita, Tarot, pornography, and steampunk. The Beatles based famous songs such as “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” and “I am the Walrus” on Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and she has even attracted the attention of world-famous artists including Salvador Dali. The Japanese version of Lolita is so different from that of novelist Vladimir Nabokov—yet both are based on Alice. This is Alice in Wonderland as you have never seen her before: a dark, sometimes menacing, and threatening character. Was Carroll all that he seemed? The stories of his child friends, nude photographs, and sketches affect the way modern audiences look at the writer. Was he just a lonely academic, a closet pedophile, a brilliant puzzle maker—or even Jack the Ripper? For a book that began life as a simple children’s story, it has resulted in a vast array of dark concepts, ideas, and mysteries. With this book, you can step inside the world of Alice in Wonderland—and discover a dark side you never knew existed.
