All learning leaders want their organizations to be perceived as great, but what makes a “great” training organization? How does a training organization achieve greatness, particularly from the perspective of the corporation, the learners, and any customers, clients and partners that interact with it? This book presents findings that are based on the data, information, and experiences shared with Training Industry, Inc. by several hundred learning professionals over a five year span, from 2008 to 2012. It identified 8 process capabilities, which have been identified as the key functions in the design, delivery and management of corporate workforce training. Each section of the book focuses on the process capabilities in detail. In addition, individual practices are explained further, noting specific procedures or scenarios and how they are best executed, all supported by best practices and comments from learning leaders.

This is a book of Lenten meditations, with one reading from the Passion and one meditation for each day of Lent. A comprehensive narrative of the Passion, this book uses details and aspects of all four Gospels. Although it uses Mark’s account of the Passion as a base, it interweaves details that are unique to the other three. The volume also contains three appendices: one of explanatory notes; one with the Passover Seder; and one with a suggested use of selections from the materials within the congregation during Holy Week.

This is a book of thirty six true accounts of the friendships that developed between German prisoners of war and their 'enemies' during their captivity. The stories, which are moving, humorous and incredible, are set mostly in Britain but also take place in the USA and Canada. Many of the friendships formed continued long past the end of the War and extended into the next generations.  In contrast with many books on war, this book shows what happened when people came face to face with their so-called enemies. The results were surprising. This book shows that friendships offered and received can transcend the hatred and disillusionment of war, and that lasting relationships between individuals can contribute to the long-term reconciliation between countries formerly at war.  Including over 170 personal photographs and illustrations, including a colour picture section, this title will be of great interest to those who live in the many specific locations mentioned, both in the United Kingdom and abroad (Germany, US, Canada) and will appeal to those with German connections. It will attract students of war and military history, particularly the generation who lived through WWII. The Germans We Trusted also has a specific Christian appeal as the motivation for many was the command to 'love your enemy'.  "Pamela Howe Taylor's book ... shows in three dozen personal stories how individual German prisoners of war managed to establish relationships of trust and friendship" From the Foreword by Douglas Hurd

Next Steps for New Christians

Worship & Devotion

Tyndale House Publishers

Thousands of students come to college taking for granted the existence of God and the supernatural, but many come to feel that there is no basis for such belief. Others come with a positive faith and graduate with their faith either blasted or divorced from reason.  This change of attitude toward the things of God results from an attitude which is to be found in many university classes. The opinion of an authority--the professor--is accepted as evidence without investigating his credentials, the facts which led to his conclusions, and the basic assumptions which colored his interpreation of the facts. Consequently a student may accept his professor's conclusions just as he previously accepted the Christian position without a thorough understanding of it.  Ken Taylor writes this booklet to show university students and others that anti-supernatural claims are based on assumptions, not on evidence, that the Christian faith is reasonable, and that the claims of Christianity are too well substantiated to be ignored.

Management Planning for Cultural Heritage: Places and Their Significance

"Management Planning for Cultural Heritage challenges traditional perceptions of and about the heritage planning process, whilst also presenting a comprehensive analysis of the ever-widening field of Cultural Heritage Conservation. Drawing on the authors experience teaching and involved in international practice, the book examines the changes that are taking place in modes of thinking about heritage as part of increasingly complex urban transformations, and considers how these must engage with, and inform, professional practice. The book also acknowledges that international best practice has developed a great deal over the last forty years and needs to be adapted, applied and refined through the recognition and application of regional values - tangible and intangible - based on cultural attitudes and practices. Emphasising the critical role of heritage planning and management in guiding change, Taylor and Verdini argue that this is especially critical if we are to safeguard values, identity and significance. In this sense, heritage is understood not only as a technical process, but as a social construct. The book therefore promotes a people-centred approach to cultural heritage management. Management Planning for Cultural Heritage will be of interest to students, scholars and practitioners working in heritage studies and conservation. Whilst the text has professional application, it also sets out to present a sound theoretical foundation relevant to the body of knowledge associated with management of cultural heritage places"--
