Resource-ful Consulting Working with your Presence and Identity in Consulting to Change

Resource-ful Consulting Working with your Presence and Identity in Consulting to Change

Consultants and practitioners working with change can feel at a loss as to how to help their clients move forward. Organisations get stuck in routine ways even when they have innovations in mind. Consultants get stuck in familiar interventions which no longer prove stimulating or effective. Such challenges to practice can preoccupy and reinforce these stuck positions. Drawing on the authors' experiences of working with the professional development of consultants and change-agents over many years this book provides an asset-based approach to consulting where the resources to work at this 'stuckness' come from the way that we think about and use ourselves: our Identity and our Presence. The authors propose that developing capacities to recognise and analyse who we bring into our consulting and how we bring ourselves is central to resource-ful practice. Without a skill-ful integration of these resources the potential for change can be compromised. In handbook format the book is structured in seven sections: Potential Space Identity Presence Role Space Practice Change and Future Developments. | Resource-ful Consulting Working with your Presence and Identity in Consulting to Change

How Designers Think

How Designers Think

How Designers Think is based on Bryan Lawson's many observations of designers at work interviews with designers and their clients and collaborators. This extended work is the culmination of forty years' research and shows the belief that we all can and do design and that we can learn to design better. The creative mind continues to have the power to surprise and this book aims to nurture and extend this creativity. Neither the earlier editions nor this book are intended as authoritative prescriptions of how designers should think but provide helpful advice on how to develop an understanding of design. In this fourth edition Bryan Lawson continues to try and understand how designers think to explore how they might be better educated and to develop techniques to assist them in their task. Some chapters have been revised and three completely new chapters added. The book is now intended to be read in conjunction with What Designers Know which is a companion volume. Some of the ideas previously discussed in the third edition of How Designers Think are now explored more thoroughly in What Designers Know. For the first time this fourth edition works towards a model of designing and the skills that collectively constitute the design process.

Agency Change and Learning Accounts of Internal Change Agents

Agency Change and Learning Accounts of Internal Change Agents

Despite the plethora of books on change there appears a notable gap in the field; rarely is the authentic and candid voice of change agents heard. How often do academics or practitioners candidly state what they actually do when they are faced with managing change in their own organisations or when they are called on in a consultancy capacity? In this new book the editors bring together a diverse group of contributors who have worked as Internal Change Agents in organizations to divulge what they really do and think about change. The authors draw on their own research work involving change agents and their change interventions and include current reflections on the post-Covid world of work and the change required for achieving change interventions successfully. Each contribution offers perspectives from real change programmes in both the public and private sector offering a unique opportunity to move beyond theory and understand change in practice. The book offers valuable insights for academics and students of organisational change and behaviour leadership and organisational development. | Agency Change and Learning Accounts of Internal Change Agents

Materials for Learning How to Teach Adults at a Distance

Materials for Learning How to Teach Adults at a Distance

Materials for Learning (1981) examines the ability of books and broadcasts to change lives. The combination of print radio television and group meetings – distance teaching – can transform education in developing countries. Effective distance teaching requires effective teaching materials and up to now there has been a lack of guidance about how to produce such materials and how to do so for different cultures. Materials for Learning aims to supply this need by suggesting guidelines for action and where evidence is mixed or lacking defining questions that still require answers. It is a practical book aimed at people actively involved in nonformal education and will be particularly useful for the developing world educators. The book looks first at how distance teaching can help with educational problems considers how adults learn and surveys problems of language and culture. It then considers the planning of distance teaching and looks in detail at the use of different media. There were also chapters on teaching numeracy and science at a distance and a discussion of the kind of support that can be provided for people studying at a distance. | Materials for Learning How to Teach Adults at a Distance

Climate Change and Critical Agrarian Studies

Climate Change and Critical Agrarian Studies

Climate change is perhaps the greatest threat to humanity today and plays out as a cruel engine of myriad forms of injustice violence and destruction. The effects of climate change from human-made emissions of greenhouse gases are devastating and accelerating; yet are uncertain and uneven both in terms of geography and socio-economic impacts. Emerging from the dynamics of capitalism since the industrial revolution — as well as industrialisation under state-led socialism — the consequences of climate change are especially profound for the countryside and its inhabitants. The book interrogates the narratives and strategies that frame climate change and examines the institutionalised responses in agrarian settings highlighting what exclusions and inclusions result. It explores how different people — in relation to class and other co-constituted axes of social difference such as gender race ethnicity age and occupation — are affected by climate change as well as the climate adaptation and mitigation responses being implemented in rural areas. The book in turn explores how climate change – and the responses to it - affect processes of social differentiation trajectories of accumulation and in turn agrarian politics. Finally the book examines what strategies are required to confront climate change and the underlying political-economic dynamics that cause it reflecting on what this means for agrarian struggles across the world. The 26 chapters in this volume explore how the relationship between capitalism and climate change plays out in the rural world and in particular the way agrarian struggles connect with the huge challenge of climate change. Through a huge variety of case studies alongside more conceptual chapters the book makes the often-missing connection between climate change and critical agrarian studies. The book argues that making the connection between climate and agrarian justice is crucial. The chapters in this book were originally published in The Journal of Peasant Studies.

How To Do Things With Logic Workbook Workbook withExercises

How To Do Things With Logic Workbook Workbook withExercises

In the past 15 years a host of critical thinking books have appeared that teach students to find flaws in the arguments of others by learning to detect a number of informal fallacies. This book is not in that tradition. The authors of this book believe that while students learn to become vicious critics they still continue to make the very mistakes they criticize in others. Thus this book has adopted the approach of teaching the construction of good arguments first and then introducing criticism as a secondary skill. Moreover the emphasis of the book is not on learning to name fallacies but on being able to identify weaknesses in an argument so as to be able to construct an effective critique of that argument. The book is accompanied by a workbook featuring a wealth of examples to help students acquire the material. | How To Do Things With Logic Workbook Workbook withExercises

Law Policy and Climate Change The Regulation of Systemic Risks

Law Policy and Climate Change The Regulation of Systemic Risks

Focusing on systemic risks caused by climate change this book examines how these risks can be effectively regulated to ensure resilience and avoid catastrophe. Systemic risks are risks that threaten the systems upon which society depends including ecosystems social systems financial systems and systems of infrastructure. Such risks are typically characterised by inherent complexity profound uncertainty and overwhelming ambiguity. In combination these features pose significant regulatory challenges for policy and law-makers. Examining how different types of systemic risks caused by climate change are being regulated in four different jurisdictions – the EU the UK the US and Australia – this book identifies deficiencies associated with regulating systemic risks using a traditional approach based on a linear relationship between risk and regulation which is widely used to regulate risk. The book advances a regulatory approach that is instead founded on the concept of risk governance. This involves a structured yet flexible holistic interdisciplinary and inclusive basis for responding to systemic risks; and it is this book argues a more effective basis for regulating systemic risks given their uncertainty complexity and ambiguity. This book will appeal to academics policy and law-makers and practitioners working at the intersection of law and policy in the areas of regulation risk management and climate change. | Law Policy and Climate Change The Regulation of Systemic Risks
