Exercises and practical examples from experienced leaders help you to grow your awareness and understanding, boosting your potential to be a braver leader and prompting reflection on your development in eight key areas. Each area explores the braver forms of personal and corporate leadership necessary for future leaders via four related “cornerstones” derived from literature reviews, discussions with leaders, and many years of developmental and coaching conversations. This well-referenced and practical book is essential reading for a range of readers across sectors including management and leadership, coaching, mentoring and followership. Supporting the case for new ways of thinking about leadership in current conditions – and what its core purpose may actually be – Braver Leaders in Action fills a gap in the current leadership literature by exploring how leaders can truly bring a braver stance to their life and work.

Taylor & Francis Inc Natural Attenuation of Trace Element Availability in Soils
Understanding attenuation processes is important not only for predicting the behavior of contaminants in soil and formulating remediation strategies, but also for mitigating and enhancing the availability of micronutrients in soil for agricultural applications. Natural Attenuation of Trace Element Availability in Soils brings together pioneering researchers who discuss their cutting-edge work in this area. The first chapters focus on practical analytical techniques for the measurement and the biological assessment of natural attenuation of trace elements. The following chapters analyze the processes that occur in the natural attenuation of contaminants and nutrients, covering the structural dynamics of mineral surfaces, partitioning, diffusion, fixation, biological and redox processes, and the reversibility of these processes. The remaining chapters consider the impact and implications of natural attenuation in terms of risk assessment, remediation of inorganic contaminants, and bioavailability of essential nutrients. Offering a concise, well-rounded perspective, Natural Attenuation of Trace Element Availability in Soils demonstrates how attenuation processes can significantly impact strategies for soil remediation and serve as a basis for environmental regulations.
