Leading Culture Change: What Every CEO Needs To Know is a practical guide for top leaders who are faced with the challenge of shaping their culture to create long term, sustainable value. Culture is changeable―but only with CEO sponsorship and a methodical, best practices approach. Author Christopher S. Dawson draws on 25 years of experience as an organizational consultant in a variety of industries to delineate five critical success factors, without which culture change is unlikely to occur. He offers practical tools and approaches to facilitate culture change, in addition to an overall framework that acts as a yardstick for seasoned and new top leaders. The book provides a "red-yellow-green" level of urgency tool for determining the degree of organizational effort required to address the gap between strategy and culture; a roadmap for culture change; and more. After describing how to effect change, the text describes frequent scenarios, providing guidelines, an in-depth case example, and lessons for top leaders. Finally, the book outlines four essential leadership competencies―dual-horizon vision; self-awareness; team leadership; and source of inspiration―based on the requirements for leaders of any transformation. This book is an ideal guide for today and tomorrow's top leaders―as well as a valuable supplement to management consultants' and human resource executives' professional training.

Woolly Worms & Wombats: A Sidelong Glance at Flyfishing Down Under

Hunting & Fishing

Johnson+books

Are you tired of flyfishing those brand-name U.S. trout streams that promise big fish but produce mostly big crowds? Then a trip to Alberta is the perfect solution, and "Due North of Montana" is the guidebook you’ll need. 
A few hours’ drive from some of the most famous trout waters in the lower forty-eight will take you to rivers you’ve probably never heard of before—rivers like the North Raven, where you’ll find big browns rising in a spring creek; or the Elk River, touted as perhaps the best westslope cutthroat stream in North America. 
Eleven of Alberta’s best southern and central trout streams are covered in this book, from the metropolitan Bow to the precipitous gorge of the Highwood River. Alberta native Chris Dawson tells you where to fish, when to go, and what flies to use. Maps help you locate the rivers and their access points. With "Due North of Montana" you can make your own discoveries in waters that are as uncrowded as America’s rivers twenty years ago.

Effective Learning: A Practical Guide to Improving Memory

This guide's main audience will be students in educational settings, including school, further education and university, together with their teachers and lecturers. However, several sections will also be useful to anyone who has some difficulty in remembering everyday things, such as names, telephone numbers and shopping lists.  The guide provides an overview of memory, how it works, and how it can be made to work better. It describes effective approaches for learning new skills, and outlines strategies for remembering unconnected information, such as lists, vocabulary and numbers. A major focus, though, is on strategies which can help with the memory of highly connected information such as storylines, historical plots, scientific concepts, political relationships, and so on.  Accompanying the descriptions of strategies are examples and, at times, some practice material.
