Product Description

The power of top management is pervasive and profound. It affects the quality of economic life, but also our personal and social lives. Equally strong is its impact on the sustainability of a free enterprise system. Psychoanalyst, teacher, and management consultant, Elliott Jaques argues that great as this power is, it is being squandered, not because of what managers do but because of what they don't know. Serious misconceptions about managerial leadership �and equally serious misunderstandings of people� abound. Jaques argues that the problems inherent in the way management is practiced are attributable to gravely dysfunctional systems of managerial leadership, systems that have evolved over the years and are now, despite their ineffectualities, taken for granted. He shows how the CEO class will determine the future of free enterprise democracy, but how massive misconceptions about human behavior have undermined its capability for leadership. It's the managerial leadership systems that need changing, he maintains, not the people who implement them. The result of more than a half century of thought, observation, analysis and experimentation, Jaques' book offers a totally new and creative system of managerial leadership and a unique system of managerial organization. In doing so, it becomes essential reading for academics, students, consultants, top management, and executives on the way up throughout the public and private sectors.

Jaques argues that the problem of achieving effective and sustainable managerial organizations does not lie in poor decision making, interpersonal stress, lack of innovation, greedy self-interest, and other ills and defects, although they certainly play a part. The art of management, somewhat like alchemy, is not securely grounded in science. This is its most severe weakness, and the reason why organizations have always been badly managed. He cites examples to show that management tends to blame its shortcomings and inefficiencies on other people, yet there is no research to prove that the source of managerial failure is really to be found there. People strive to do their best, he has found, but they are stymied by poor organization and systems that pitch people into conflict with each other. Jaques looks at these systems closely, particularly our current systems of compensation, and itemizes his findings, showing how the the same problems are to be found throughout industry, public service, health and services organizations, and less surprisingly perhaps, the military. He then lays out the ways in which a new system of managing operations and organizations could work, shows that it is already working in certain selected places, and provides convincing evidence that his assertions and recommendations have much to offer, as we continue to search for better, more efficient, and more productive, profitable organizations.

Social Power and the CEO: Leadership and Trust in a Sustainable Free Enterprise System Review

I sometimes ask my oldest son just what did he learn at Wharton School studying for his MBA? Not much as far as he can tell me.

This book should be required reading for anyone who aspires or already is a CEO. Jaques wisdom in this book is worth two years of graduate business study. It should also inspire the reader to read his other works.

Perhaps you have wondered where GE found its storied organization and leadership development system. Well, wonder no more. It is all based on Jaques work over the past 60 years.

So, why is Jaques such a secret? Because companies using his theories in practice consider it a competitive advantage.

Innovation with Information Technologies in Healthcare (Health Informatics) Review

Innovation in every industry is currently being driven by software and information technology. Healthcare is one of the last industries to awaken to this trend. I've been in IT for 30 years, 15 years in the defense, national intelligence, and manufacturing sectors; and 15 years in healthcare, frustrated by healthcare's stodgy culture. This book is the best I've ever read for describing the successes of the pioneers in this awakening... and I'm the most cynical critic of IT innovation that you will find in industry. The readership should not be restricted to the informatics and IT crowd in healthcare. CEOs and CFOs and the rest of the C-levels in healthcare need to read this book and start borrowing the ideas that it summarizes. And, it's worth noting, you don't have to be an Intermountain Healthcare or UPMC or Northwestern to implement the ideas and examples in Lyle's book. The case studies and ideas for innovation in this book are achievable by every hospital and clinic in the US.

Handbook of Research on Student Engagement

Product Description

For more than two decades, the concept of student engagement has grown from simple attention in class to a construct comprised of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral components that embody and further develop motivation for learning. Similarly, the goals of student engagement have evolved from dropout prevention to improved outcomes for lifelong learning. This robust expansion has led to numerous lines of research across disciplines and are brought together clearly and comprehensively in the Handbook of Research on Student Engagement.

The Handbook guides readers through the field’s rich history, sorts out its component constructs, and identifies knowledge gaps to be filled by future research. Grounding data in real-world learning situations, contributors analyze indicators and facilitators of student engagement, link engagement to motivation, and gauge the impact of family, peers, and teachers on engagement in elementary and secondary grades. Findings on the effectiveness of classroom interventions are discussed in detail. And because assessing engagement is still a relatively new endeavor, chapters on measurement methods and issues round out this important resource.

Topical areas addressed in the Handbook include:

• Engagement across developmental stages.
• Self-efficacy in the engaged learner.
• Parental and social influences on engagement and achievement motivation.
• The engaging nature of teaching for competency development.
• The relationship between engagement and high-risk behavior in adolescents.
• Comparing methods for measuring student engagement.

An essential guide to the� expanding knowledge base, the Handbook of Research on Student Engagement serves as a valuable resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in such varied fields as clinical child and school psychology, educational psychology, public health, teaching and teacher education, social work, and educational policy.
