We think we know what delegation is but few of us actually do it well, or even at all. Instead of deliberately growing new capability in the people around us, we too often hoard responsibility to protect our turf, or micromanage, or indiscriminately dump tasks. It leads, says Dave Stitt in this compact and sharply observed meditation, to burned out managers, bored or swamped staff, and choke points in teams and organisations. Delving into the anatomy of effective delegation, and offering fresh insights into issues of trust, motivation, communication and accountability, Stitt develops a set of approaches and techniques for empowering and inspiring people around us so that great things can start happening right away, even if it's not us doing them.

The world's most globally informative activity, Model UN [MUN], is more than 50 years old, yet there has never been a book or reference written to explain the process of MUN in a clear and concise fashion, readable for a high school student, until NOW... It is called MUN-E (pronounced "money") and it is a strategy guide for Model UN, educating students on how to portray true value to a room of strangers (other delegates) who are seeking a strong leader to show them what to agree on. After coaching and advising a public high school into Best Delegate's national rankings for multiple consecutive years, Eugene Geis and Anthony White had met enough fresh, new advisors and delegates seeking guidance to master this academic competition. Their book is already in more than 10 countries, proving that leadership can be taught, and it is not merely a result of knowledgeable students promoting consistent international policy. It is rather a combination of a strong, charismatic presence, confidence in one's own ability to communicate, and a personality that exudes tendencies towards rapport, compromise, and effectiveness. This is the true power behind the Diplomat. This book first breaks down the technique for developing a strong presence in and out of committee. It is called "Social Intelligence." Second, they deconstruct the types of delegates encountered at a typical Model UN conference, from the "newbie" to the "gavel hunter." Each type of delegate has positive and negative consequences that require a competitor's attention when forming new alliances. Next, MUN-E shows the reader the philosophical background of arguments, creating a structure that allows a delegate to sculpt any disagreement into a compromise. The sixth chapter shows how to apply these arguments to any of TWELVE award-winning strategies that can be used to solidify a delegate's leadership in any committee! These strategies are drawn from more than 40 years of experience in Model UN competitions. Chapter 7 is a short treatise that breaks down the controversial rules of dress code, demystifying the all-too-common issues resulting from teenagers attempting to dress "professionally." In chapter 8 the fine art of writing position papers and resolutions is presented, using persuasive writing techniques not normally taught in an English classroom. Chapter 9 is the only full discussion of Crisis Committees that can be found printed. Eugene and Anthony's high school delegates were extremely successful in these high-caliber, fiercely competitive situations. Every delegate wishes for a strong introduction to a crisis committee, but usually ends up being chewed up and demoralized in their first experience. This book sets up a framework for preventing such an event. The tenth chapter gives a strong set of tools for developing relationships with other students using the "flexible" rules of social engineering. This material is not for the beginner and holds severe social consequences if used improperly. Keeping ahead of the times, there is a full chapter on creating a FREE wordpress website for a MUN club's management platform. It demonstrates how to integrate it with an existing facebook group and twitter account, maximizing your club's exposure and social media footprint! Finally, the appendices include empirical recipes for research, the full protocol of parliamentary procedures, and a discussion of management techniques for advisors. Model UN is the most difficult liberal arts academic club in high school and the skills that can be learned through Model UN are useful in the broader context of negotiation, social parlance, interviewing, and even collaborative productivity. It should be noted that some of the most successful people in media, business, and leadership have experience competing in Model United Nations. It is one of a few activities that offer full character development along with a global education. This book is, by far, the best primer on this academic a

When will the United States elect its first woman president? Many political observers believed that Hillary Clinton would win the White House in 2008, and many still believe she is a strong contender for 2016. Yet, while many believe that electing the first woman president is not a question of if, but who and when, media speculation on the topic has yet to move it from an interesting talking point to political reality. The question remains: Just how close are we to breaking this final political glass ceiling? By merging the two literatures of women and politics (especially women as candidates) and presidential campaigns and elections, a winning strategy for women candidates can emerge by analyzing what political science research tells us from past campaigns and what we can expect in the future.

The complex and ever-changing rules governing American presidential nomination contests are continuously up for criticism, but there is little to no consensus on exactly what the problems are, or on how to fix them. The evolving system is hardly rational because it was never carefully planned. So how are we to make sense of the myriad complexities in the primary process, how it affects the general election, and calls for change? In this thoroughly updated second edition of The Imperfect Primary, political scientist Barbara Norrander explores how presidential candidates are nominated, how that process bridges to the general election campaign, discusses past and current proposals for reform, and examines the possibility for more practical, incremental changes to the electoral rules. Norrander reminds us to be careful what we wish for—reforming the presidential nomination process is as complex as the current system. Through the modelling of empirical research to demonstrate how questions of biases can be systematically addressed, students can better see the advantages, disadvantages, and potential for unintended consequences in a whole host of reform proposals. The second edition includes an entirely new chapter on the connections between the primary and general election phases of presidential selection. The entire book has been revised to reflect the 2012 presidential primaries and election.

This book provides a comprehensive mathematical description and analysis of the delegate allocation processes in the US Democratic and Republican presidential primaries, focusing on the role of apportionment methods and the effect of thresholds—the minimum levels of support required to receive delegates. The analysis involves a variety of techniques, including theoretical arguments, simplicial geometry, Monte Carlo simulation, and examination of presidential primary data from 2004 to 2020. The book is divided into two parts: Part I defines the classical apportionment problem and explains how the implementation and goals of delegate apportionment differ from those of apportionment for state representation in the US House of Representatives and for party representation in legislatures based on proportional representation. The authors then describe how delegates are assigned to states and congressional districts and formally define the delegate apportionment methods used in each state by the two major parties to allocate delegates to presidential candidates. Part II analyzes and compares the apportionment methods introduced in Part I based on their level of bias and adherence to various notions of proportionality. It explores how often the methods satisfy the quota condition and quantifies their biases in favor or against the strongest and weakest candidates. Because the methods are quota-based, they are susceptible to classical paradoxes like the Alabama and population paradoxes. They also suffer from other paradoxes that are more relevant in the context of delegate apportionment such as the elimination and aggregation paradoxes. The book evaluates the extent to which each method is susceptible to each paradox. Finally, it discusses the appointment of delegates based on divisor methods and notions of regressive proportionality. This book appeals to scholars and students interested in mathematical economics and political science, with an emphasis on apportionment and social choice theory.

If Barack Obama had not won in Iowa, most commentators believe that he would not have been able to go on to capture the Democratic nomination for president. Why Iowa? offers the definitive account of those early weeks of the campaign season: from how the Iowa caucuses work and what motivates the candidates’ campaigns, to participation and turnout, as well as the lingering effects that the campaigning had on Iowa voters. Demonstrating how “what happens in Iowa” truly reverberates throughout the country, five-time Iowa precinct caucus chair David P. Redlawsk and his coauthors take us on an inside tour of one of the most media-saturated and speculated-about campaign events in American politics. Considering whether a sequential primary system, in which early, smaller states such as Iowa and New Hampshire have such a tremendous impact is fair or beneficial to the country as a whole, the authors here demonstrate that not only is the impact warranted, but it also reveals a great deal about informational elements of the campaigns. Contrary to conventional wisdom, this sequential system does confer huge benefits on the nominating process while Iowa’s particularly well-designed caucus system—extensively explored here for the first time—brings candidates’ arguments, strengths, and weaknesses into the open and under the media’s lens.
