Sudden Leadership

A Survival Guide for Physicians

By: Malcolm Ogborn

If you have been tapped on the shoulder to take on a formal or informal physician, medical, healthcare or technical field leadership role, and are wondering "How do I do this?", this book is here to help. In a creative yet straightforward fashion, Dr. Malcolm Ogborn provides a valuable and insightful resource that can support professionals, particularly physicians, who find themselves thrust into leadership roles requiring knowledge and skills that have not been part of their professional training. Sudden Leadership follows the early leadership journeys of two fictitious physicians. For each scenario in which the characters find themselves, Dr. Ogborn reviews relevant, evidence-based literature and offers pragmatic and field-tested approaches that allow new professional leaders to face their challenges with confidence. Topics include • defining your leadership, including knowing when to take a leadership role and when to turn it down • attracting and, more importantly, engaging followers and knowing when to lead by being a good follower • motivating and managing others doing the work and mastering the skills of delegation • running meetings that actually work rather than get in the way of work • handling tough conversations skilfully to achieve progress not confrontation • strong team leadership by embracing the natural development of teams and skillfully adapting your leadership style to changing team needs • mastering time allocation by understanding how you think about time, how you make time related decisions, and how you hold your self accountable for good use of your time. • successfully managing conflict as an inevitable and surprisingly productive part of human experience. • preventing burnout by recognizing it as an occupational phenomenon, not a mental illness • leading change or system improvement through clear targeting, familiarity with the determinants of change acceptance, well-planned and skilled advocacy and effective recruitment of a change team and allies Engaging and educational, Sudden Leadership will make a vital addition to any professional's library.

Assessing Student Learning in Higher Education

By: George A Brown,Joanna Bull,Malcolm Pendlebury

There is no doubt about the importance of assessment: it defines what students regard as important, how they spend their time and how they come to see themselves - it is a necessary part of helping them to learn. This text provides background research on different aspects of assessment. Its purpose is to help lecturers to refresh their approach to the assessment of student learning. It explores the nature of conventional assessment such as essays and projects, and also considers less widely used approaches such as self- and peer-assessment. There are also chapters devoted to the use of IT, the role of external examiners and the introduction of different forms of assessment. With guidelines, suggestions, examples of practice and activities, this book will become a springboard for action, discussion and even more active learning.

Henry Prinsep’s Empire

Framing a distant colony

By: Malcolm Allbrook

Henry Prinsep is known as Western Australia’s first Chief Protector of Aborigines in the colonial government of Sir John Forrest, a period which saw the introduction of oppressive laws that dominated the lives of Aboriginal people for most of the twentieth century. But he was also an artist, horse-trader, member of a prominent East India Company family, and everyday citizen, whose identity was formed during his colonial upbringing in India and England. As a creator of Imperial culture, he supported the great men and women of history while he painted, wrote about and photographed the scenes around him. In terms of naked power he was a middle man, perhaps even a small man. His empire is an intensely personal place, a vast network of family and friends from every quarter of the British imperial world, engaged in the common tasks of making a home and a career, while framing new identities, new imaginings and new relationships with each other, indigenous peoples and fellow colonists. This book traces Henry Prinsep’s life from India to Western Australia and shows how these texts and images illuminate not only Prinsep the man, but the affectionate bonds that endured despite the geographic bounds of empire, and the historical, social, geographic and economic origins of Aboriginal and colonial relationships which are important to this day.
