Book excerpt: You’ve probably heard the old saying, “The only constant is change.” But with the frequent market shifts thus far in the early twenty-first century, combined with the rapid pace of technological change coming out of Silicon Valley, the old saying has morphed into a stern warning that demands the attention of any business wishing to survive. For the penalties for companies who fail to learn and adapt to the changing tides of today’s marketplace have never been higher.Learning to Succeed warns us all that companies need to continually assess where they need to go in relation to where they are now--and use training to bridge the gap. An integrated model for corporate education--one that links development programs with strategic goals--is critical to building agile and resilient learning organizations that will survive in our fast-evolving business landscape. Corporate learning expert Jason Wingard has drawn from hundreds of interviews with senior executives, surveys, and questionnaires with division heads and business unit managers in order to create new education initiatives designed to advance concrete corporate goals, helping participants become active learners. Learning is then reinforced and ROI is optimized.Complete with practical guidelines and illuminating case studies, this pioneering book holds the key to putting your business on the path to long-term success.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life in idyllic 1960s McAlisterville, Pennsylvania seems so promising to young Nelson Lauver. But undiagnosed dyslexia soon turns hope and optimism into struggle and shame as he falls far behind in school and is branded lazy. Confused, angry, and determined not to be the dumb kid, he chooses instead to become the bad kid- ending up a loner at odds with the world and with himself. Nelson resigns himself to being hopelessly different and joins the ranks of millions of Americans who try to hide their inability to read and write. At age 29, a chance encounter leads to a diagnosis of dyslexia and a profound rebirth. Ironically, the boy who was afraid to have anyone hear him try to read launches a new career as a writer, broadcaster and speaker. An estimated 10 to 20 percent of Americans suffer from a learning disability. 14 percent of American adults are considered functionally illiterate. More than personalizing these sobering statistics, this uplifting memoir goes beyond one man's account of rising above a learning disability. Most Unlikely to Succeed is an inspirational story that will speak eloquently and profoundly to anyone who has ever struggled to be heard, to be understood, or to make his or her way in the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a positive and compelling exploration of how young south Asian women can be encouraged to study science further and to consider STEM as a career. Drawing together both intersectional and personal perspectives, the book celebrates south Asian culture, sharing the stories of these individuals, their multifaceted identities, aspirations and successes. At the micro-level, an intersectional analysis reveals complicated identity negotiations of being young, female, a science-orientated student, imigré, Muslim, a daughter and a sister, as well as how these identities might interact, nest, and shift. The chapters build on the authors' previous work in science education, developing models of science identity (Sci-ID) and women's engagement with the study of science and their aspirations for a science-based career.
