Substance over form is an accounting guideline, but it applies to our lives perfectly, after all, what do we seek if not happiness? The realization of our essence? In all the choices we make, conscious of them or not, and even when we do not choose, we only act on what has been assigned to us by life, by circumstance, it is always it that we seek and what does not lead us to it that we avoid. Somehow, we try to realize our essence, and the work, the delivery, the construction, the realization of something, the formation of skills, the character of usefulness for the whole, our contribution, it is given by our work, whether we have chosen it or not, whether we have been vocated or not. The socio-economic context in which we live can become a barrier or a lever for our realization, but under no circumstances will we be able to accomplish something if we do not understand what that something is first. That's what we talk about in this book! About us (our essence), our work (the form) and our circumstances. Here you will find a manual for your career, enjoy your reading!
'An inspiring guide to developing your personal brand, achieving your career goals and shaping the future of work' Red 'Everything every career woman needs to know and yet is rarely shared so honestly' Anya Hindmarch 'Refreshingly relevant and practical' Roksanda Ilincic Women have made great advances in the workplace, but despite that - and the overwhelming amount of career advice out there - the same questions continue to arise: how to succeed in a man's world, how to combine a career with a family, how to be authentic and fit in, and whether it is even possible to achieve a work-life balance while chasing career goals. Unfortunately, much of the advice women are offered is badly out of date and lacking in 'cut-to-the-chase' strategies that really tally with their experience of the workplace now. What's more, the advice often tends to be defensive, focused on overcoming obstacles rather than drawing upon strengths. Style and Substance starts from a very different perspective. Written by Helena Morrissey, who has learned through her own experiences as a woman in the workplace and as a business leader, it will help you understand what really matters when it comes to career progression today, whatever your age, situation and aspirations. Style and Substance will show you how to build your own style - your personal brand - and how to have confidence in it, and in yourself. Once you realise how much agency you have and the steps that you can take to look the part, sound the part, feel the part and therefore be the part, you'll be empowered to achieve your goals in your own way, secure in who you are and what you have to offer.
Whether it's sleek leather pants, a shiny new Apple computer, or a designer toaster, we make important decisions as consumers every day based on our sensory experience. Sensory appeals are everywhere, and they are intensifying, radically changing how Americans live and work. The twenty-first century has become the age of aesthetics, and whether we realize it or not, this influence has taken over the marketplace, and much more. In this penetrating, keenly observed book, Virginia Postrel makes the argument that appearance counts, that aesthetic value is real. Drawing from fields as diverse as fashion, real estate, politics, design, and economics, Postrel deftly chronicles our culture's aesthetic imperative and argues persuasively that it is a vital component of a healthy, forward-looking society. Intelligent, incisive, and thought-provoking, The Substance of Style is a groundbreaking portrait of the democratization of taste and a brilliant examination of the way we live now.
"Style and Substance" offers a unique look at hundreds of dazzling rooms the magazine has showcased during its first two decades. Illustrations throughout.

Handbook of Intellectual Styles by Li-fang Zhang,Robert J. Sternberg,Stephen Rayner, PhD Pdf
[B]ecause of the thoroughness of the literature reviews and the comprehensive coverage of the chapter topics, [this book] should be required reading for any scholar working in related areas of personality or intelligence."--PsycCRITIQUES "This book is a masterly attempt to bring order and cohesion to a field that for many years has been riven with claims and counterclaims. The editors and authors are to be congratulated for addressing a very complex task so helpfully." John Biggs, PhD Honorary Professor of Psychology University of Hong Kong "If you are interested in intellectual stylesópeople's preferred ways of processing informationóthen this book belongs on your bookshelf." Richard E. Mayer, PhD Professor of Psychology University of California, Santa Barbara "For more than half a century, the construct of styleówhether designated as cognitive, thinking or learningóhas been in or out of fashion in the history of psychology and education. The editors of the present Handbook have invigorated the style construct in the form of intellectual styles, and have brought together a distinguished international panel of chapter authors who offer up-to-date surveys of the assessment, development, correlates, and educational and organizational applications of intellectual styles. For those seeking to familiarize themselves with current theory and research in an intellectually exciting field, the present Handbook is essential." Nathan Kogan, PhD Professor Emeritus, Department of Psychology New School for Social Research, New York, NY The concept of intellectual styles has had a controversial history based on diverse philosophical and theoretical foundations. Most recently, the idea of intellectual stylesóan umbrella term that covers such closely related constructs as "cognitive styles," "learning styles," "teaching styles," and "thinking styles"óhas gained momentum as an explanation for why different people succeed in different professional and organizational settings. Previously, it was thought that high-achievers simply had more innate abilities than their less successful peers, but research has shown that individuals have different intellectual styles that are better suited for varying types of contexts and problems. Based on the most current and expansive research, this handbook is the first to provide a comprehensive review of research on the construct of intellectual style, from its foundations and development, to its relations to allied constructs, its roles in school and job performance, its applications in various populations, and its future.. This understanding of intellectual styles as a valid concept for both individuals and groups has far-reaching implications for researchers in cross-cultural psychology, multicultural education, organizational behavior and work performance, and many other academic disciplines, as well as practitioners in education and beyond. Key Features: Provides a comprehensive review of intellectual styles from multiple perspectives Written for students and scholars in diverse academic arenas, as well as practitioners in education and other fields Includes contributions from researchers from diverse disciplines, such as psychology, business, education, and health sciences
99 Problems and Freedom Is One by Glynis Glasgow-Kelly Pdf
Martin Luther King had a dream but this book outlines a strategic vision of taking the thinking on issues of race to a higher academic level. Each chapter is written from the view of the western cultural thinker and the black cultural thinker with “black” being used in the political rather than the ethnic sense. At the end of each chapter there are a series of questions for critical thinking. The book encourages black people to elevate themselves from civil rights to civil heights. It calls for an end to the race wars and the gender wars and advocates for a holistic education for reparation; to be proud of our history and to encourage young people to dream of a better future. The vision of the book is to create a cultural business enterprise that specialises in critical thinking skills for academic, cultural and economic progress. Working within the framework of traditional academic disciplines, the book aims to empower people by cultivating critical reading skills, developing creative ideas for business whilst promoting change, insight and cultural well being. The book appeals to politicians, educationalists, teachers and the more academically inclined readers. It appeals to conservative, labour and liberal thinkers. It appeals to the far right and the far left on immigration and other issues. It is self-therapeutic, self discovering and self liberating and ensures everyone’s mental well being.

Through the Year with William Booth by Stephen Poxon Pdf
William Booth - pawnbroker's assistant, firebrand preacher, advocate of women's rights, friend of the poor, confidant of statesmen, politicians and royalty, father of eight children, champion of the marginalised, and founder and first General of The Salvation Army. General Booth's courage, oratory and passion changed Victorian Britain. He resolutely ignored his critics - including those who decried him as the Anti-Christ - and reached out to those who considered themselves well outside the concern of Almighty God. Prayer and practicality were his hallmarks: he ridiculed the idea of preaching to a beggar while that beggar was cold and hungry. William Booth worked tirelessly, campaigning, researching, negotiating, adapting music-hall songs - and writing. This book introduces us to his heart and convictions. Here we find the urgency, thought and humanity which drove him on.
