Korstryck är ett av bokens huvudbegrepp. Det står för olika krav som skilda intressenter ställer på skolors arbete och som i sin tur formar skolledares arbetsvillkor. Skolledarskapets främsta utmaning ligger i att agera proaktivt i förhållande till dessa förutsättningar. Detta innebär att agera i skarven mellan skollag, läroplaner och kommunala budgetdirektiv. Dessutom ska skolledare svara för att rekrytera elever på marknadens villkor och söka borgfred mellan olikartade förväntningar från vårdnadshavare och starkt styrande interna skolkulturer. För den enskilda rektorn blir då en primär uppgift att inom dessa ramar söka och använda det outnyttjade frirummet för att utveckla den lokala verksamheten för elevers bästa. Skolledares professionella mästerskap blir mot denna bakgrund en fråga om att kunna omvandla omvärldens spänningsfyllda krav och förväntningar till verksamhetsförbättrande aktiviteter. Denna andra upplaga är grundligt omarbetad men syftet är fort­farande att tydliggöra oc...

But six weeks after leaving for university, he drops out and returns home. Dan Mulano is an infatuated new dad and well-meaning police officer whose selfishness is veiled by the lofty aspirations he holds for his family. His wife, Janie, a former addict and exhausted new mom, struggles to cope with the challenges of recovery in the midst of her battle with postpartum depression, which Dan dismisses as "just hormones."

The American body is in trouble. Unprecedented numbers of us suffer from obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and other debilitating illnesses. The root cause is a once-revolutionary idea that seemed to offer so much promise, but instead has become the cause of a global health crisis: processed foods. Over the past seventy-five years, a number of factors aligned to create a reality in which processed carbohydrates became our main food source. In Fast Carbs, Slow Carbs, bestselling author and former FDA Commissioner David A. Kessler explains how the quest to feed a nation resulted in a population that is increasingly suffering from obesity and chronic disease and offers a solution for changing course. For decades, no one questioned the effects of these processed carbohydrates. The focus was on fertile grassland, ideal for growing vast amounts of wheat and corn; an industrial infrastructure perfect for refining those grains into starch; a food production behemoth that turns refined grains i...

From the Academy Award (R)-winning actor, an unconventional memoir filled with raucous stories, outlaw wisdom, and lessons learned the hard way about living with greater satisfaction. I've been in this life for fifty years, been trying to work out its riddle for forty-two, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last thirty-five. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel, and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me. Recently, I worked up the courage to sit down with those diaries. I found stories I experienced, lessons I learned and forgot, poems, prayers, prescriptions, beliefs about what matters, some great photographs, and a whole bunch of bumper stickers. I found a reliable theme, an approach to living that gave me more satisfaction, at the time, and still...

Each year in the United States, millions of mass-produced greeting cards proclaim their occasional messages: "For My Loving Daughter," "On the Occasion of Your Marriage," and "It's a Boy!" For more than 150 years, greeting cards have tapped into and organized a shared language of love, affection, and kinship, becoming an integral part of American life and culture. Contemporary incarnations of these emotional transactions performed through small bits of decorated paper are often dismissed as vacuous cliches employing worn-out stereotypes. Nevertheless, the relationship of greeting cards to systems of material production is well worth studying and understanding, for the modern greeting card is the product of an industry whose values and aims seem to contradict the sentiments that most cards express. In fact, greeting cards articulate shifting forms of love and affiliation experienced by people whose lives have been shaped by the major economic changes of...

Product management has become a critical connective role for modern organizations, from small technology startups to global corporate enterprises. And yet the day-to-day work of product management remains largely misunderstood. In theory, product management is about building products that people love.

For current and aspiring product managers, this book explores: ? On-the-ground tactics for facilitating collaboration and communication ? How to talk to users and work with executives ? The importance of setting clear and actionable goals ? Using roadmaps to connect and align your team ? A values-first approach to implement...
