This book illustrates, through a number of examples from different domains, how to put in place a disciplined process to develop a creative leadership approach. Today's managers seem to have all the tools at their disposal, leadership training, seminars and executive coaching, to exercise effective leadership, but most continue to take the easy path of raw authority, neglecting the interwoven texture of leadership and followership. The classic models of leadership fail routinely because leaders find it hard to develop an effective way of motivating their followers and do not realize how far they are conditioned by the limitations and biases hardwired in their brains. Just like sports professionals who need a good understanding of their body, leaders need to practice and explore the capabilities of their brains. With some knowledge in the latest discoveries in Neurosciences and mastery of their cognitive predispositions, leaders can draw on a range of resources to engage all parties in learning and collaborating towards common goals and create a culture based on cooperation and innovation. Ideal for organizations or associations, private or public companies, this book offers practical advice on neuroleadership through examples of successful transformation including a case study at Netflix.
Dystonia–dyskinesia syndromes (DDS) are severe disabling movement disorders, characterized by twisting and repetitive movements or abnormal postures. Movement disorders are differentiated as primary or secondary. Primary movement disorders are of genetic or idiopathic origin, whereas secondary forms result from exogenous injuries. A PubMed literature search identified 32 clinical research studies reporting on a total of 153 patients with secondary dystonia treated with deep brain stimulation. For 116 patients, the mean Burke–Fahn–Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale (BFMDRS) score improved by 49%. The greatest mean BFMDRS improvement was achieved for tardive dyskinesia. The majority of patients were implanted in the globus pallidus. Fewer patients received thalamic or subthalamic nucleus stimulation. Electrical neuromodulation of subcortical structures can be very useful for a small number of patients with movement disorders due to a structural damage of the brain.
Cinema has been long associated with France, dating back to 1895, when Louis and Auguste Lumi_re screened their works, the first public viewing of films anywhere. Early silent pioneers Georges MZli_s, Alice Guy BlachZ and others followed in the footsteps of the Lumi_re brothers and the tradition of important filmmaking continued throughout the 20th century and beyond. In Encyclopedia of French Film Directors, Philippe Rège identifies every French director who has made at least one feature film since 1895. From undisputed masters to obscure one-timers, nearly 3,000 directors are cited here, including at least 200 filmmakers not mentioned in similar books published in France. Each director's entry contains a brief biographical summary, including dates and places of birth and death; information on the individual's education and professional training; and other pertinent details, such as real names (when the filmmaker uses a pseudonym). The entries also provide complete filmographies, including credits for feature films, shorts, documentaries, and television work. Some of the most important names in the history of film can be found in this encyclopedia, from masters of the Golden Age_Jean Renoir and RenZ Clair_to French New Wave artists such as Fran_ois Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard.
Designed to help beginning French students build their reading skills and expand their vocabulary base at an early stage of instruction. Contains 26 lessons, which are divided into four levels according to the structures used in the readings.
Over the past 20 years, Philippe Barthelemy (France) and Sylvia Grino (born in Uruguay) have developed projects that span France, Great Britain, South America and Asia. These encompass many public and private programmes and commercial buildings for the luxury accessories giant Louis Vuitton, including a store in Kobe, Japan. In addition to other awards, Barthelemy-Grino architectes won in 2003 second place for Le Moniteur's renowned Equerre d'Argent prize for their sports centre in Nanterre, a building distinguished by its innovative wood construction. This book documents in detail the most significant projects from Barthelemy-Grino architectes, organized into four chapters: frames, components, insides and skins."--BOOK JACKET.
