Elizabeth Alma Negron: Leadership as a
Calling

Leadership as a Calling

A Self-Reflective Journey to Becoming an Influential Leader

Understanding Context in Leadership invites readers to explore the often-overlooked element of leadership: the context in which it occurs. This accessible and thought-provoking text introduces students and new leadership learners to the essential practice of analyzing context as part of the leadership process. By examining the dynamic interplay between leaders, followers, and their environments, readers will learn how to observe, interpret, and respond to the many forces that shape leadership outcomes. At the heart of the book is the SHAPE framework, a powerful tool for breaking down context into five key dimensions: Social, Historical, Attitudinal, Personal and Environmental. Each chapter explores one SHAPE dimension through four lenses--self, organizational/team, institutional, and societal--offering a layered understanding of how context influences leadership at every level. Readers will gain practical strategies for observing and analyzing context, along with reflective prompts and tips to apply these insights in real-world settings. Whether you're a student beginning your leadership journey or an educator guiding others, Understanding Context in Leadership provides the tools to lead with greater awareness, adaptability, and impact.

Understanding Context in Leadership

Grounded in the latest research and practical experience in client organizations, this book provides a coherent theory of the leadership of groups. The authors show how this knowledge can be used to inspire and motivate groups to deliver positive spirals of performance at the individual, group and organisational levels.

Group Leadership

Creative thinking, which the most successful companies that develop the most innovative products rely on, has evolved into to creative resilience - the technique to persevere with problems and solve them faster. The approach will help business leaders create both the physical and mental agility to build an operating environment that supports successful ideation and adopts different ways of approaching complex problems. The reader will become more 'creatively resilient' and flexible to adopt non-habitual modes of thought that move them towards creative solutions that they can apply to very specific business and technical challenges. The basic framework is called 'Stormblending' - a four-phased approach that focuses on a collection of different tools that can be applied to deliver the value from each phase. The four phases are presented in the context of the full product development lifecycle. They are: <ol> <li>Immersion (Ethnographically inspired Contextual Inquiry/Voice of customer). </li> <li>Representation (How to best represent and frame specific problems and opportunities to create the right conditions for successful idea generation). </li> <li>Divergent thinking techniques to disrupt and reframe the problem as the reader will learn how to adopt non-habitual modes of thought. </li> <li>Emergence and Discovery (this when most we experience the 'A-Ha!' moment) </li> </ol>Traditionally, most companies make the mistake of stressing ideation only without thought to how the ideas are then prioritised, built upon, and turned into a reality for profitable growth. Practitioners and business professionals, from start-ups to global corporations, will gain an initial overview on creativity, the purpose of ideation, and what it means to translate insights into innovation in real-time - in the boardroom, during periods of introspection, or during the facilitation of cross functional teams and workshops that demand the specialist skills provided in this book.

How to Accomplish Successful Ideation through Creative Resilience

Creative Thinking for Business Leaders

Sleep isn't passive rest, but a critical driver of performance. In high-pressure environments, sleep is often the first thing to go. Long hours are treated as commitment. Pushing through is expected. But the cost builds, often in ways we don't immediately see, leading to distraction, poor decisions, emotional reactivity and missed signals. In this groundbreaking guide, sleep neuroscientist and executive advisor Els van der Helm, PhD, shows that sleep is not just a habit to optimise. It's a system to understand. Blending cutting-edge research with real-world stories and interviews - from global executives to frontline professionals - Dr van der Helm reframes sleep as a hidden driver of performance, resilience and leadership. Her practical, science-backed six-principle framework reveals how we can:<ul><li>Identify our chronotype and align our schedule with peak performance windows</li><li>Use chronotherapy to align work, energy and recovery across the day</li><li>Understand how REM sleep supports emotional control, creativity and decision-making - and how to protect it</li><li>Use strategic napping to recover faster and sustain high performance</li><li>Navigate periods of poor sleep, reducing the impact of bad nights and building long-term resilience</li><li>Become a 'sleep leader,' rethinking how work and life are structured to make sustained performance possible</li></ul>Perfect for leaders, ambitious professionals and anyone operating in high-demand environments, Sleep Intelligence offers a new way of thinking about sleep - and how we work, recover and live as a result.

How to Be a Leader

One of the world's greatest mountain climbers and adventurers tells her first-hand leadership stories of coming to grips to life literally on the edge—8000 meters up. On the Edge is an engaging leadership manual that provides concrete insights garnered from various extreme environments ranging from Mt. Everest to the South Pole. Author Alison Levine reflects on lessons learned during her expeditions, making the case that the leadership principles required in extreme adventure sport also apply in today’s extreme business environments. Both settings demand crucial decision-making skills in conditions that are far from perfect—the survival of you and your team depend on it. With a foreword from leadership expert Mike Krzyzewski, Duke University basketball’s legendary Coach K, On the Edge provides a framework to help readers scale whatever big peaks they aspire to reach—literal or figurative—by offering practical, humorous, and often unorthodox advice about how to grow as a leader.

On The Edge

Strategic shifts don't wait-and neither can you. Leading a strategic shift is not business as usual, and it requires more than leadership as usual. In Leading Strategic Shifts, New York Times-bestselling author and strategic leadership advisor Dr. Vince Molinaro shows senior leaders and leadership teams how to turn strategy into action and change into progress when priorities change overnight. This book explores what it truly takes to lead a strategic shift-a deliberate change in a company's direction, organization, and the way leaders lead-and why such moments rapidly raise expectations. Drawing on more than two decades of experience as an executive, advisor, and researcher, and on the research behind his books The Leadership Contract, Accountable Leaders, and Community of Leaders, Molinaro distills lessons from advising and leading dozens of major transformations, offering practical, proven guidance for leaders who are responsible for making strategy real. Most leaders experience strategic shifts as chaos: Business models change, teams are reshaped, and scrutiny rises, even as results still matter. The best leaders see these moments as defining opportunities to elevate performance and grow. In this book, you'll learn what strategic shifts are and how they challenge leaders, then apply what you've learned through nine make-or-break behaviors that determine whether a shift succeeds or stalls. Each concise chapter combines real stories from the field with research, practical strategies, checklists, and gut-check questions that you can use immediately. For frontline, mid-level, and senior leaders who must deliver results amid constant change, Leading Strategic Shifts provides a clear, practical framework when direction, priorities, and expectations are in flux. Dr. Vince Molinaro reveals what effective leaders like yourself need to do to build trust, sharpen focus, and drive follow-through, so you don't just respond to strategic shifts-you actively shape them.
