red helicopter—a parable for our times - James Rhee - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

A NATIONAL BESTSELLER Embrace your agency, lead change, and fly free—in the business of life and the life of business—with kindness (plus a little math) In kindergarten, James Rhee received a toy red helicopter in gratitude for a simple act of generosity—sharing his lunch. Decades later, the lesson from that small gift led him to develop a human-centered framework for business and personal achievement that helped him overcome seemingly insurmountable hurdles and find unprecedented success. “ red helicopter is a transformative experience . James Rhee''s story is a must read for anyone, of any age, who wishes to think, act, and lead with balance, agility, and wisdom ." —Jay Shetty Rhee was a high school teacher turned private equity investor when he unexpectedly took the helm of Ashley Stewart, an iconic company predominantly employing and serving Black women. Inspired by the values his dying Korean immigrant parents instilled in him, he knew that a radically different—yet familiar—approach was required to lead this twice-bankrupt company from certain liquidation to true transcendence. Is it possible to be successful and kind? To lead with precision and compassion? To honor who we are in all areas of our lives? The entire world bet against him and Ashley, but Rhee trusted his instincts to identify, measure, and leverage the intangible goodwill at the company’s core, a decision which ultimately multiplied its fortunes several times over. Anyone can combine the clarity and imagination we had as children with fundamental business metrics. Anyone can apply this refreshingly intuitive approach to lead change at work and at home. While eloquently sharing a story of personal and professional success, red helicopter presents a comforting yet bold solution to the dissatisfaction and worry we all feel in a chaotic and sometimes terrifying world. The insights and knowledge that Rhee imparts have been accumulated over decades of investing and leading at the highest levels of business. Drawing on this experience, he encourages us to trust the wisdom deep inside each of us so we can learn how to: - Create and measure “goodwill,” the ultimate collective good - Discover agency and the truth about kindness it entails - Identify the invisible obstacles standing in your way - Lead transformational change through small, scalable acts - Construct an accurate “balance sheet” of our assets and liabilities - Reorient our lives, organizations, and the world to reflect the best in us Are you looking for a sustainable balance between life, money, and joy? For yourself and others? Imagine, a clear path forward told as a deeply felt human story. A poignant and uplifting celebration of humanity, red helicopter—a parable for our times is a tale of struggle and triumph, compelling for its honesty and relatability as much as for the instructions we can all use to balance the books of our lives. red helicopter—a parable for our times features approximately 20 original illustrations by Korean artist Heyon Cho.

Helicopter Parenting and Boomerang Children - Anne West - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Drawing an unfavourable contrast between the position of students and graduates with that of their baby boomer parents has become a staple for media comment. Indeed, student indebtedness and difficulties in finding graduate jobs and housing typically contrasts markedly with their parents’ experiences. Broadening the investigation, ‘Helicopter Parenting’ and ‘Boomerang Children’ depicts how students and graduates are now likely to be close to their parents, receive considerable financial and emotional support from them and, upon graduation, return home. Using qualitative data from two interview studies of middle-class families, this title explores the impact of these changes on young people’s transition to independence and adulthood and on intergenerational and intragenerational equality. This enlightening monograph will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students interested in fields such as Social Policy, Family Sociology and Education.

The Chinook - Rich Pittman - Bog - Amberley Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Boeing CH-47 Chinook is an American twin-engine, tandem-rotor, heavy-lift helicopter. Its primary roles are troop movement, artillery placement, and battlefield resupply. With a top speed of 170 knots (196 mph, 315 km/h), the helicopter was faster than contemporary 1960s utility helicopters and attack helicopters, and is still one of the fastest helicopters in the US inventory. The CH-47 is among the heaviest lifting Western helicopters. Its name is from the Native American Chinook people.The Chinook was designed and initially produced by Boeing Vertol in the early 1960s; it is now produced by Boeing Rotorcraft Systems. It is one of the few aircraft of that era – along with the fixed-wing Lockheed C-130 Hercules cargo aircraft – that remain in production and frontline service, with over 1,200 built to date. The helicopter has been sold to sixteen nations with the U.S. Army and the Royal Air Force being its largest users.There is no mistaking the familiar wokka thump from the tandem rotor Chinooks rotor blades as it flies overhead. Often a crowd pleaser and fan favourite at air shows, Rich Pittman takes a look at origins of the tandem rotor through the early production, improved versions and operational history of the CH-47 heavy-lift helicopter.
