The Herald Diary 2022/23

Author: Lorne Jackson
Publisher: Black & White Publishing
ISBN: 1785304216
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 252

Book Description
It was a year that careered out of control, with the natives of Scotland feeling like passengers in a souped-up dodgem car being driven by a crackpot clown without a valid driving licence. Luckily The Herald's Diary column was able to cover the toppling of Boris Johnson, the triumphs of Liz Truss, a huge green-hued shindig and a bat-like creature fighting crime on the streets of Glasgow. All before the outpouring of Royal grief in September when we said goodbye to the Queen and came to terms with "God Save the King". Away from the monarchy, there was the surreal story of a woolly mammoth who might one day play for Scotland, a knight in armour visiting an Edinburgh pub, a cow patiently waiting for a train, Santa climbing a statue and an emu loose in Livingston. And the year also saw a mysterious entity called . . . the Platty Jubes? This cockamamie compilation presents all sorts of shenanigans to round off a year like no other. All with that patented Diary twist.

Book Description
In a work environment where micromanagement, devaluing of workers, and even bullying run rampant, it’s no wonder professionals today are more disengaged than ever. They do not feel their perspectives are being heard or their expertise valued, leading to a slow erosion of organizational culture, which only contributes to more disengagement. It’s a vicious circle, and it’s causing negative impacts on organizations of all kinds, from stifled innovation to costly turnover to loss of customer and social confidence. So, who is responsible for fixing it? The leaders, of course! With deep insights drawn from his 53-year career as a healthcare executive and leadership consultant, Dr. Roger A. Gerard explains how leaders can bring passion and drive back to their demotivated professionals using time-tested approaches such as: • Empathetic listening, with an expectation that their opinions will be influenced by their employees. • Respecting the autonomy of their professionals to follow their intuition. • Providing the tools, resources, and guidance professionals need to achieve their most ambitious dreams. As a leader, do you have the courage to confront the challenges in your organization—and the compassion to respect and recognize the professionals who work in it?
