The president of Joe Gibbs Racing—the winningest team in NASCAR history—shares the secrets of succeeding in business and in life. In NASCAR, as in life, the difference between winning and losing often comes down to being in the right place at the right time and making the most of every opportunity. Nobody understands that better than Dave Alpern. Dave started his career as an unpaid intern selling T-shirts for the newly formed Joe Gibbs Racing team. Nearly three decades later, he’s now the president of JGR, a multimillion-dollar elite, record-setting racing team with more than 500 employees. In Taking the Lead, Dave shares the wisdom he’s learned along the way: key principles that will equip you with what you need to rise to the top and succeed with integrity and purpose—whatever team you’re on.

It was among the most remarkable and successful rebuilding projects in NASCAR history – turning the most popular driver whose confidence bottomed out amid questionable work habits into an assured and diligent championship contender. In Leading the Way, Steve Letarte takes readers into the closed-door meetings, the heartfelt conversations in the No. 88 hauler and the after-hours bonding sessions that created the faith and trust necessary to make Dale Earnhardt Jr. a winner again. Through vivid depictions of some painful mistakes and critical decisions, Letarte details the overlooked strategies and structure that he successfully applied to a slumping race team the same way that a CEO would implement in a struggling company. Here are the never-before-revealed fierce arguments, lighthearted moments and unbridled joy shared with Earnhardt in a four-year, cross-country odyssey from the highs of a magical 2014 Daytona 500 win to the lows of a career-threatening concussion. “Steve possesses all the qualities of a successful leader, with a unique ability to rally his team into believing in their own success. This book is a special look at his life both personally and professionally that I think will enlighten and educate.” – Dale Earnhardt Jr. “I never dreamed of being an author, but those years with Dale were so special. I wanted everyone to hear these stories to appreciate the important values of leadership and friendship and the successes that are measured beyond trophies and championships.” – Steve Letarte

The world of business makes generous use of metaphors drawn from the auto industry--as in "driving for results," "leading in the fast lane," "looking under the organization's hood," and "leaving the competition in the dust." But this timely, highly readable handbook goes a big step further. Author Chris Cappy, a veteran management consultant and self-professed "car guy," along with Scott Good, a serial entrepreneur and national championship-winning racing driver, contend that driving is much more than just a metaphor. Together, they demonstrate that the principles of top-level automobile racing can teach us a great deal not only about leadership, but also about life. In this book, they literally put us in the driver's seat and show us how it's done. Endurance racing at the highest levels is a sophisticated team sport, not just an isolated act of derring-do. It takes vision, planning, training, and exquisite execution by many people over a long period of time. Sound familiar? If you're a business executive, it should. High-performance leading, like racing, is emphatically a team endeavor. The authors' passion for their subject leaps out from every page, and it's catching. So are the keen insights derived from the racetrack--insights used to demonstrate how to leverage and apply important skills and principles in our professional and personal lives. After all, today's business environment is nothing if not fast and furious. There's danger around every curve; if we can't learn how to see around that curve before we get there, to anticipate quickly how to respond, and then to guide ourselves and our organizations around them safely, we'll spin out of control. Isn't that what today's leadership is all about--recognizing with a clear eye the uncertainty and volatility all around us, and then coaching teams of highly-trained people to navigate through successfully? Yes, but how--how do leaders teach, align and motivate their employees to maximize business results? To answer those questions, "The Driving Leader's Handbook" escorts us into the high-pressure world of motorsports and then deftly pulls back to offer cogent advice. It guides us step-by-step through the process that leads a professional driver--or an executive--to a level of performance not previously thought possible. It's a feeling (yes, feelings and instinct in this realm trump pure knowledge) of calm focus--that relaxed state amidst chaos and confusion that nimbly guides a sports car, or an executive team, through extreme adversity. "The Driving Leader's Handbook" blends the lessons learned from the racetrack with vast experience gained while working with senior executives of some of the world's largest corporations around organizational change. Leading change is the most daunting challenge today's leaders face, but face it they must: There's no alternative. Leadership and change have become synonymous. Drawing from the example of legendary racing team owners like Roger Penske, Chris and Scott show how to build a business case for change by involving employees and wider stakeholders in the process at every level. For the leader, it requires a level of passion, commitment and relentless focus on results.

The American workplace exhibits a growing imbalance when it comes to human identity. Leaders are frequently defined in the absence of their critical social identifiers, but the exclusion of these identifiers is a mistake and ignores essential physical, cultural, and spiritual realities. Their exclusion is especially problematic for leaders of the Black identity and the Christian faith. Color-blind ideology harms people of color, while religion-blind systems damage people of faith, and both are especially problematic for individuals who reckon with both realities. Rather than abandoning an individual's social identities, the ones we choose and the ones we do not, Leading While Black draws on the lived experiences of executive-level leaders of the Christian faith and Black identity, and offers a testament to the power of a living God in the social fabric of public life. Instead of ignoring the narrative arc of social identities and the weight they carry when considering an individual's conception of leadership, Torrance Jones leans into the value of those identities and asserts their integral importance for Black leaders and for those who work with and for Black voices. The reality of those who live with the experience of being Black and Christian in the workplace matters for the grand narrative of leadership in the United States. Through conversations and deep attention to the lived experience of leaders, Torrance Jones explores the intersectionality of these two worlds--Black and Christian--and inspires readers to lead from the context of all that they are.

This book started as a self-serving exercise to personally organize the major details and interesting facts of each Indianapolis 500 over the hundred-plus-year history of the greatest race in the world. For many of us passionate racing fans who have attended a multitude of 500s, there is a tendency for the details of the races to (somewhat) blend together. I hope this book will help to provide clarity in this regard as well as educate. During high school, many of us chose to use CliffsNotes to assist in the education process. This book is somewhat patterned after that concept. It falls somewhere between Donald Davidson and Rick Schaffer—the best and by far the most detailed book on the history of the Indianapolis 500—and a multitude of pictorial books with limited information. I hope it will prove to be an easy read with entertaining and educational information.

Leading For Change written by Jonathan Jansen and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015-08-14 with Education categories.

This book offers new theoretical ground for thinking about, and transforming, leadership and higher education worldwide. Through an examination of the construct of intimacy and ‘nearness’, including emotional, spiritual, psychic, intellectual, and physical closeness, Jonathan Jansen demonstrates its power to influence positive leadership in young people. He argues that sensory leadership, which includes but extends beyond the power of touch, represents a fresh and effective approach to progressive transformation of long divided institutions. Considering richly textured narratives, chapters explore complex intimacies among Black and White university students in South Africa, post-apartheid and in the aftermath of a major racial atrocity. The stories reveal the students’ transformation in the process of ‘leadership for change’, interweaving concepts of racism, human relationships and intimacy, and in turn expanding the knowledge base of social and institutional improvement. This book explores how, when different kinds of nearness come together in leadership change, young people respond in ways that would not be possible through conventional instruments such as policy, legislation and the appeal to moral sensibilities alone. Leading for Change will be critical reading for academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of education, educational justice, higher education, educational leadership and change, social and/or racial justice. This book will also be of interest to those working in the fields of anthropology, social psychology, and South African contemporary politics, policy and institutional practices.
