Taylor & Francis Ltd Architecture and Leadership
Book SynopsisFrom cathedrals to cubicles, people go to great lengths and expense to design their living and working environments. They want their spaces to be places where they enjoy being, reflecting who they are and what they care about. The resultant environments in turn become loud, albeit unvocal, leaders for people occupying those corresponding spaces. The design and use of work and living spaces typifies and thematizes expectations for the group. Essentially, the architecture of rooms, buildings and cities creates cultures by conveying explicit and implicit messages. This is evident when people approach and walk into St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow, the Forbidden City in Beijing, the Sydney Opera House in Sydney, Australia, the Jewish Museum in Berlin, or the Rothko Chapel in Houston, to name some examples. While leaders oftentimes lack the resources to have their spaces mirror the greatest architectural achievements of the world, they are in a position to use the art and science oTable of ContentsChapter 1 Architecture and Leadership Connections Chapter 2 Built Environment as a Place of Identity, Meaning, and Purpose Chapter 3 Defining Architecture as “Good” Chapter 4 Critical Components of Architecture: Building Elements and Design Principles Chapter 5 Three Categories of Specific Design Principles Chapter 6 Leadership and Use Strategies Chapter 7 Architecture and Leadership in Action

Taylor & Francis Organization and Education Development
Book SynopsisOrganization and Education Development combines reflective thinking and practice, action research living theory, and organization development to explore the self-discovery of meaning and purpose. It charts a journey undertaken by the author in pursuit of professional development through self-awareness and self-change as a fully integrated person and a better professor. This book is about an individual's integrative journey of self-discovery. The authorâs narrative includes values and organizational development concepts and theories shared with fellow travelers, including supervisors, friends, and students. He shares invaluable insights and examples with the reader, using a model of a six-spoke wheel of final discovery and the MICAI intersection model. These integrative guides provide examples on how to search for what is best in everyday life and what gives us true meaning, encouraging personal reflection and ways of nurturing appreciation for our own lives. TTrade Review'Leadership is influence founded on the process of continuous self-discovery. In this extraordinary book you will learn how to become who you really are, in making the journey you will tap into capacities you did not previously believe possible.'Professor Robert E. Quinn, Ross School of Business, University of Michigan, Center for Positive Organizations, and co-author of The Economics of Higher Purpose (2019) 'Sociologists create constructs to make sense of the world where individuals or groups design personal conceptions of reality. Dr. Nanwani’s book allows insights into building models that capture self-identity and societal meaning to live one’s story.'Dr. William A. Loxley, Social Science author on knowledge and development 'This book, Organization and Education Development: Reflecting and Transforming in a Self-Discovery Journey, is a beautiful example of how to apply positive organization development theories to your life to become a happier and better version of yourself. The book is also a brilliant resource for any educator wanting to take their performance and teaching satisfaction to the next level.'Jacqueline Kelm, author and founder of Appreciative Living'One’s conscious and deeply motivated lifelong journey toward self-mastery requires a tough start-up: a comfortable knowledge and acceptance of who we are — past and present. And the onward journey proceeds with grit, courage, and hope that we are capable of bringing ourselves to a better place where all the sufferings and joys, the chaos and calm in this life — past, present, and future — converge into that sacred space of celebration and appreciation of who we have become. This is what the MICAI Intersection Model of Suresh is offering to the reader as his gift.'Rosalina O. Fuentes, Founding President, Loyola Institute of Positive Organization Development and Academic Dean (October 1997 to May 2020), SAIDI Graduate School of Organization Development Philippines'Organization and Education Development: Reflecting and Transforming in a Self-Discovery Journey is an important guide and resource for those who want to discover and understand themselves more deeply as a person and how to relate with others and to make the world we live in become more satisfying and fulfilling. The book also offers many insights that will surely nourish the minds and souls of those who will be embarking on a similar journey. I wish to congratulate and thank Prof. Suresh Nanwani for his passion in journeying through his self-discovery and for sharing his solid experiences with the readers.' Dr. Dolores M. Torres, Vice Chairman and Management Senior Adviser CARD Bank, Inc., Philippines,'The process of self-change is critical for everyone. In sharing his instructive models and fascinating insights, the author has emphasized that a constantly evolving self-reflection leads to more purposeful self-discovery and meaningful relationships with others.' Marie-Paul B de Luna, PhD, MNSA, Loyola Institute of Positive Organization Development, Philippines'Having journeyed professionally with Dr. Nanwani through various parts of the world and the complex lives of other cultures, I find it exciting to read his testimony on the integrative journey he has undertaken toward a learning person in mind, body, spirit, and soul. As a blending of memoir and guidebook for others, the book is a tour de force that leaves any truth-seeking reader inspired to seek out the sources Dr. Nanwani has found in organizational theory, multiple cultures, and wise people of the past. Whatever your age and experience, this book will give you insights for creating a sense of wholeness in response to inevitable change in ourselves and the world around us.'Richard E. Bissell, Former Executive Director of Policy and Global Affairs,US National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine'Suresh Nanwani has made original contributions to both Organization Development and Educational Theory. These contributions are made through focusing on living values of integrity, professionalism, and spirituality while integrating insights from theories, concepts, and models of Organization Development. In my language of living-educational-theories, the book demonstrates how individuals can explain their own educational influences in learning with values that carry hope for the flourishing of humanity.'Dr. Jack Whitehead, Visiting Professor of Education, University of Cumbria, United Kingdom 'Professor Nanwani very effectively uses the metaphor of a journey to discuss innovative insights into personal transformation. His approach to writing is as diverse as his educational and professional background (law, finance, and organization development). He creatively uses journaling, vignettes, plays, and poetry to bring new perspectives to topics like Appreciative Inquiry, Positive Psychology, Eastern Philosophies, and Quantum Skills and then translates these insights into the MICAI Intersection Model for personal and organizational transformation. Dr. Nanwani’s Covid-19 postscript makes this a very timely read for all who are committed to living purposefully and positively during chaotic times.'Professor Charlotte Shelton, Helzberg School of Management, Rockhurst University, Kansas City, USA'Suresh Nanwani has embarked on a unique journey to discover and experience his "whole-ness" — his most authentic self in connection with the world around him. In this book, he shares with us invaluable lessons from this journey in the form of his MICAI Intersection Model. This integrative guide provides examples on how to search for what is best in and around us, and what gives our life true meaning. His approach is multidisciplinary, drawing from organization development, positive psychology, education development; and combines western and eastern models and philosophies. His journey reflects on what can be nurtured within us to flourish through positivity and appreciation. This is an especially valuable read for anyone who is searching for more meaning and purpose in this mysterious and ever-changing world.' Ronald Fry, PhD, Professor of Organizational Behavior, Fowler Center for Business as Agent for World Benefit, Case Western Reserve University, USA'Suresh presents an inspiring story to say the least. This book is brimming with valuable research and insights that are provided in meticulous detail for people of all ages. His MICAI intersection model and analysis will leave you thinking about how to connect the dots in your journey of self-discovery. Bravo!'Vik Kapoor, Former United States Federal Emergency Management Agency Ombuds and Consultant for the UN Funds and Programmes'Organization and Education Development: Reflecting and Transforming in a Self-Discovery Journey is a really interesting account of someone’s professional and personal journey, and the points of intersection between the two. A valuable read for anyone interested in the principles and process of reflective practice and who wishes to be motivated by someone’s commitment to leave a positive legacy.'Dr. Simon Milligan, Consultant and Adjunct Senior Lecturer, Lund University 'Examining our life helps us become aware of the complexity of human relationships and to be able to recognize the interconnectedness of us all. In Organization Development, coaching, and change, new practitioners will oftentimes experience pressure to know the field, its techniques, theories, maps, and models. Leading change and leading others though, always starts with leading self. Suresh’s book provides an entry door to just that. It is an important step on a lifelong journey, after which comes the here and now, the mastery beyond technique and deep use of self that I’ve observed among these expert practitioners.' Lise Bruynooghe, Founder, Profound Consulting (www.profound-consulting.com) and cofounder, Both& (https://both-and-partners.org/)'The future of education and OD revolves around strengthening and supporting the evolving self both on the level of the individual and the collective. To do that, we need a new approach to research that integrates 1st person, 2nd person, and 3rd person knowledge. In this book, Suresh Nanwani does a wonderful job in integrating these methodologies and thus advancing our understanding of learning.'Otto Scharmer, Senior Lecturer, MIT; Founding Chair, Presencing Institute'The journey that the author took to know and learn more about himself is a very positive approach to living. The research study goes contrary to the belief that education and learning about new things, including oneself, lessens in importance with age. Nanwani’s example teaches us that knowing and improving oneself transcends age, experience, and background. Nanwani’s book is most helpful in enabling each one of us to gain a more solid moral foothold in the slippery slope of this pandemic.'Antonio G. M. La Viña, Ateneo de Manila University, Philippines (Book review in Manila Standard, Philippines, 11 September 2021) "Dr. Nanwani presents a very creative self-assessment tool with a feedback model on self-evaluation. As a conflict resolution practitioner, I will utilize this tool for leaders seeking self-assessments in lieu of 360 degree reviews. Overall, this is a fascinating read empowering readers to apply the techniques Dr. Nanwani shares in his book, to not just learn about oneself, but how to navigate major events in one’s life and repurpose that energy to be positive, purposeful, and resilient."Bina Patel, PhD, Ombuds, Arbiter and Organizational Health StrategistTable of ContentsForewordPrefaceAcknowledgmentsList of figures List of tablesAcknowledgmentsAbout the authorList of Abbreviations1 Introduction: why the journey, the itinerary, and the fellow travelers?It is never too late to embark on a journey to learn about oneselfTwo salient events in my life and their effects on meOptions in mapping out my journeyWhat is the "best travel agenda"?Core values for my research journey of discoveryWhat I need to know and discover on my journey: objectives and questions My fellow travelers2 Essential items packed for the journey: OD Theories and concepts with accompanying studies and literatureIntroductionMy travel bag Reflective practiceAppreciative inquiry and appreciative living Positive organization scholarship Charlotte Shelton’s seven quantum skillsPositive psychology, and flow and creativityAction research living theoryEastern perspectives: ikigai, yoga, meditation, and tai chiMindfulnessSelf-awarenessSelf: the human being is part of the whole, called the universeKnow yourself3 All Aboard: my journey travelers who helped me in navigating my routeMy ticket for the journey: the research paradigmThree instruments in my research paradigmRespondents for the surveys and interviewsData collectionJournalingSurveys and interviewsFeedback questions 4 The journey: what I learned from my initial fellow travelers and myself in relation to the values of integrity, professionalism, and spiritualityIntroductionResearch question 1: what are the consistent ways in which practicing my three values of integrity, professionalism, and spirituality make me a fully integrated person?Summary Impact of independent readership on my journal entriesResearch question 2: through what behavioral lenses do my friends and students perceive me practicing the three values?SurveysInterviewsSummary 5 The journey continues: what I learned from my dditional Dellow Travelers and Myself on my top three discoveries and on my final modelIntroduction Research question 3: what are the top three discoveries I gained from my practice of the three values?SummaryResearch question 4: what model can I craft toward becoming (a) a fully integrated person and (b) a better professor?SummaryFour illustrative vignettesVignette one (on professionalism)Brief episodeExtrapolationVignette two (on integrity)Brief episodeExtrapolationVignette three (on spirituality)Brief episodeExtrapolationVignette four (on all three values of integrity, professionalism, and spirituality)Brief episodeExtrapolation6 Completing the journey: the Final OD model, the lessons learned, the MICAI intersection model, summaries of reflective practices, and does the journey really end?

Taylor & Francis Visual and Multimodal Research in Organization
Book SynopsisThis volume brings together two hitherto disparate domains of scholarly inquiry: organization and management studies on the one hand, and the study of visual and multimodal communication on the other. Within organization and management studies it has been recognized that organizational reality and communication are becoming increasingly visual, and, more generally, multimodal, whether in digital form or otherwise. Within multimodality studies it has been noted that many forms of contemporary communication are deeply influenced by organizational and managerial communication, as formerly formal and bureaucratic types of communication increasingly adopt promotional language and multimodal document presentation.Visual and Multimodal Research in Organization and Management Studies integrates these two domains of research in a way that will benefit both. In particular, it conceptually and empirically connects recent insights from visual and multimodality studies toTable of ContentsPart I: Introduction1 Purpose of this volume2 A social semiotic approach to multimodalityPart II: Strategies for multimodal scholarly inquiry3 Approaches, methods, and research agenda: An overview4 The archaeological approach5 The practice approach6 The strategic approach7 The dialogical approach8 The documenting approach9 Summary: Towards multi-approach studies in multimodal organization researchPart III: Application10 Introduction to four case studies11 The power of diagrams12 The use of logos in post-merger identity construction at Aalto University13 Multimodal meaning-making in online shopping14 Multimodal legitimation and corporate social responsibility (CSR)Part IV: Discussion15 The way ahead: Discussion and conclusion
