Argues that society's separation of work and family is no longer a tenable model for employees or the organizations that employ them. Finds that implementation of policies designed to allow "flexibility" is rarely smooth and often results in gender inequity. Using real-life cases to illustrate the problems employees encounter in coordinating work and private life, details how corporations generally handle these problems and suggests models for innovation. Shows how the structure and culture of corporate life could be changed to integrate employees' other obligations and interests, and in the process help organizations become more effective.

Her compelling, beautiful, motivational, story told in Breaking the Mold, tells her background story, the woman behind the award-winning actress and fashion model, with graduate degrees in psychology and social work. Blanca reveals her past, born in the US., then as a Latina immigrant, from Mexico, who at 9 years old with her family of seven, was forced to live in a garage for 2 years with no hot running water and no heating, weathering the frigid winters of Washington State. Blanca tells her secret, following a promise she made to herself to become successful, while freezing cold in that garage. She never allowed a terrible childhood, being bullied, an abusive father, learning to speak English and living in poverty, to stop her reaching her dreams. Her remarkable resilience and her strategies, are shared here in her book, Breaking the Mold, she shares the tools she used to become an international success. She describes her harrowing near death drive through the devastating Woolsey Wildfire which destroyed her beautiful Malibu home. Then, just 2 weeks later, she is back on the red carpet in Marrakesh to, "Climb back on the horse." She deals with the tragic loss of her beloved mother, the anchor in her life, who unexpectedly passed away while Blanca was writing this book. Breaking the Mold will help all who read it, by using the tools Blanca describes, showing how to overcome the tragedies of life, in order to reach success. Despite all that life threw at her, Blanca became the very description of self-made and is an international success. Breaking the Mold is an inspiration to all who read it.

Much has been written about leaders and leadership. Journal articles, blogs and books try to home in on the essence of an effective leader. While there is common agreement that a executive's performance can make or break company, defining that essence of effective leadership remains the Holy Grail for those who find themselves at the top, for those who are responsible for carrying out the strategies and dictates of their managers, and for the shareholders who want to see commitment, action and positive financial return. Breaking the Leadership Mold is designed to help senior executives and managers respond to the challenges of today and shed the vestiges of days gone by. In so doing they will better lead and enable their staff, and create a work environment that is healthy, engaging, productive and sustainable. Based on the author's extensive research and 35 years' experience in working with local, national and international companies, Breaking the Leadership Mold offers 20 principles-such as Principle #10: Recognize How Executive Team Dynamics Promote Mediocrity and Principle #14: Get Other Executives On Board (or Out of the Way)--that when implemented will ensure that not only is there effective communication throughout the organization, from top to bottom and bottom to top, but also that employees and executives alike contribute to their full potential. The net result -- the organization wins on every measure. The 20 principles are built on the pillars of case studies, experience and research. Effective leadership is an absolute in any business environment, but becomes even more critical in times when businesses face unprecedented challenges and need to be nimble and responsive to change. Breaking the Mold has proven strategies to empower, unite and galvanize managers and employees -- and their organization - to enable them to prosper and adapt in a swift-changing environment.

Since A Nation at Risk was published in 1983, there has been widespread recognition that public education is failing in the U.S. Numerous expensive reforms have been attempted to no avail, and costs have increased dramatically. Furthermore, economic austerity requires educational systems to do more with less. This book presents convincing evidence that paradigm change – such as the change of lighting systems from the candle to the light bulb – is the only way to significantly improve student learning and simultaneously lower costs. The authors provide a thought-provoking vision of the new paradigm, including a new brain-based pedagogy, a new professional role for teachers, a new central role for technology, and even a new more empowered role for students and parents. The authors also describe three examples – a school, a school district, and a school model – that have implemented many features of the new paradigm, along with evidence of their effectiveness. Finally, this book describes ways we can transform our Industrial-Age school systems to the new paradigm, including ways our state and federal governments can help.
