Le système éducatif congolais
by the editors at The World BankCette analyse sectorielle est le produit de la collaboration entre une équipe nationale interministérielle (ministères en charge de l'éducation et ministères partenaires) et une équipe d'appui de la Banque mondiale et du Pôle de Dakar en analyse sectorielle (UNESCO-BREDA). Le rapport présente les principales caractéristiques du système éducatif congolais et vise à évaluer les progrès réalisés dans la période récente, à identifier les contraintes qui pèsent sur son développement ainsi que les marges de manuvres qui pourraient aider le pays à durablement améliorer son système éducatif. Ce rapport offre donc aux décideurs nationaux et à leurs partenaires au développement une base analytique solide pour instruire le dialogue politique et le processus de prise de décision. Le Gouvernement Congolais s'est appuyés sur les résultats de ce rapport pour la préparation d'un plan sectoriel d'éducation visant à être endossé par les partenaires techniques et donc à recevoir l'appui financier des partenaires de l'IMOA-EPT.
Le temps, c'est de l'argent
by Adidas WilsonLorsque vous posez la question à la plupart des gens, ils vous diront qu'ils ne s'attendaient pas à ce que le mouvement FIRE devienne aussi populaire. Renoncer aux plaisirs de la vie et économiser plus de 50% de son revenu pour prendre sa retraite à 30 ou 40 ans n'est pas chose facile. En 2020, le mouvement FIRE est à son apogée. Malheureusement, cela signifie qu’il n’y a plus d’augmentation - la seule voie à suivre est de descendre. Chaque jour, vous voyez l'histoire d'une personne qui a pris sa retraite prématurément et comment elle y est parvenue. C'est ainsi que vous savez que le FEU est à son apogée. Tout investisseur sait que lorsque vous voyez les nouvelles imprimées, vous ne pouvez pas investir car il est trop tard. Mais c'est généralement le moment idéal pour vendre. Les investisseurs essaient de prévoir l'avenir. Construire une vraie richesse ne consiste pas seulement à gagner de l'argent. À un moment donné, vous avez vu des pauvres heureux et des riches misérables. Selon les recherches, la relation entre le bonheur et l'argent est faible. Les dix principes suivants vous aideront à atteindre la vraie richesse, personnellement et financièrement. Devenez profondément motivé - L'argent ne peut pas être considéré comme une motivation profonde. La richesse financière a des avantages externes. Avec de l'argent, vous pouvez avoir de gros comptes bancaires, des maisons de luxe, etc. mais vous ne pouvez pas acheter le bonheur. Étant donné que les objectifs externes ont des limites inhérentes, ils limiteront votre motivation.
Le travail des constellations familiales et l'argent
by Marc Baco« Pourquoi moi ? Pourquoi est-ce que j’ai toujours des problèmes d’argent, et pas mon frère ou ma sœur ? » Peut-être vous êtes-vous déjà posé cette question, sans parvenir à une réponse satisfaisante. Dans ce livre, Marc Baco vous invite à le rejoindre pour un intéressant et révélateur voyage dans les profondeurs des enjeux de notre âme, selon la perspective des constellations familiales, sur la question de la dette et du manque d'argent. Le système familial désigne généralement un membre de la famille pour attirer l’attention sur un déséquilibre. Cette personne apportera une « compensation absolue » à ce dernier, bien qu’elle ne soit pas particulièrement bien placée pour résoudre un problème spécifique — il s’agit en fait d’un choix complètement arbitraire et aléatoire. En procédant de cette manière, la famille crée un équilibre stable — au détriment d’un individu. L'auteur espère que vous trouverez, dans cette présentation d'exemples vécus et concrets, des pistes pour répondre à vos questions et dénouer vos problématiques, pour une maîtrise en conscience des blocages financiers et des dettes.
LeBron James

LeBron James: Building a Hollywood Empire
by Anita ElberseIt is June 2016. Superstar basketball player LeBron James and his childhood friend and business partner Maverick Carter are celebrating James’ third NBA championship. The duo will soon have to decide on a strategy for their media businesses—their film and television production company SpringHill Entertainment as well as their digital sports platform Uninterrupted. In 2015, Carter and James negotiated a first-of-its-kind, three-year agreement with Hollywood studio Warner Bros. Entertainment that gave SpringHill Entertainment a first-look movie deal, an exclusive television deal, significant development resources that also could be used for the creation of digital content, and space on the studio lot. Later that year, Warner Bros. signed on as a lead investor in Uninterrupted. Were Carter and James right to partner with Warner Bros. in this manner? And with renewal negotiations just around the corner, how could they make the most of the opportunity?

Lead
by Gary BurnisonLead is a different kind of book. Rather than being the "last word" on leading others, it is meant to be the "first word"--an invitation to the reader to reflect on what the leadership journey means to each and every individual. At its core, Lead will benefit anyone who seeks to inspire, influence, or lead others, whether they are coaches, teachers, pastors, community organizers, politicians--or are in the C-suite. Lead offers an exploration of the essential elements of leadership, which author Gary Burnison defines as: purpose, strategy, people, measure, empower, reward, anticipate, navigate, communicate, listen, and learn--all of which culminate in leading. Instead of taking the left-brain approach of "paradigm shifts" and "leadership models," the author focuses on right-brain constants such as emotional connection, compassion, focusing on others, humility, and managing oneself. Lead readers will find inspiring stories, easy to digest analogies, reflective exercises and evocative images meant to give them pause, draw them in, and encourage introspection.

Lead From The Heart: Transformational Leadership For The 21st Century
by Mark C. CrowleyLeadership and engagement expert Mark C. Crowley shows how trading in the old business playbook for heart-led leadership strategies will create purpose-driven, dedicated employees and higher levels of performance. Revised and updated to address the needs of those managing Gen Z and millennial employees in addition to the latest global research on employee engagement.In this thoroughly revised and updated edition of his now classic book, visionary Mark C. Crowley provides the roadmap workplace leaders the world over are seeking: How to most successfully and sustainably inspire and manage other human beings in the post-pandemic era.· Nearly 50 million workers quit their jobs in the U.S. alone in 2021—a record number likely to be exceeded in 2022.· While we might imagine that an opportunity to earn greater pay is the key driver of this &“Great Resignation,&” research shows two-thirds of the reasons people leave jobs boil down to issues related to their engagement and overall well-being.· More specifically, people quit when they feel they aren&’t valued, respected, appreciated, coached—or cared about personally—by their manager and organization.· Thanks in large part to the COVID pandemic and a global reset of what matters most to people in their lives, human beings have profoundly evolved in what they need and want in exchange for their work.· Consequently, a radical change in employee expectations demands that organizations and managers rapidly pivot by embracing leadership practices that match the moment.· The remedy to the Great Resignation is to adopt more humane ways of managing people knowing they inherently lead to infinitely greater engagement not to mention optimal employee performance.· In this new and updated version of his seminal and visionary book, Mark C. Crowley draws upon emerging medical and other scientific discoveries which prove it's the heart, not the mind, that drives human motivation and achievement.· While we&’ve long been led to believe that human beings are essentially rational beings, new research shows that feelings and emotions far more often motivate human behavior and what people care about most and commit themselves to in their lives.· In light of this breakthrough understanding, it&’s become incumbent upon workplace managers to pay great attention to their employees' emotional experience at work—far greater attention than any of us ever believed necessary.· Ironically, most of us were told the heart has no place in workplace management. In fact, most of us were taught that the heart acts like Kryptonite in leadership: it inherently undermines a manager's effectiveness - and lowers performance.· What makes this book so remarkable is that it brilliantly contradicts all those traditional beliefs and proves why people naturally and instinctively respond to managers who care about them personally and support their deep human needs.· To be absolutely clear, there's nothing soft or weak about the Lead From The Heart philosophy. Instead, it represents the future of workplace management and a roadmap to driving uncommon engagement, productivity and profitability when organizations around the world are wanting it most.· Rich with inspiring stories and illuminating research, this book proves that when you lead people with a greater balance of mind and heart, people naturally follow. And they also excel.

by Mike Figliuolo Victor Prince“In times when leaders have to do more with less, this book gives you the tools to elevate your people to new levels of success.” —Andrea Procaccino, Chief Learning Officer, New York-Presbyterian HospitalEvery employee is different, but unfortunately many leaders use a one-size-fits-all approach to leading.

Lead Like Ike
by Geoff Loftus"A novel, intriguing--and more importantly--highly instructive approach enabling us to truly grasp fundamental management principles. In the person of Dwight Eisenhower planning and executing the D-Day landings and the subsequent liberation of Europe, these basic concepts are vividly brought to life. As Loftus rightly observes, no CEO ever faced a more daunting, pressure-filled, obstacle-laden mission than did Ike. Perfect reading for these turbulent times." --Steve Forbes, Chairman & CEO, Forbes Media"Geoff Loftus has written an intriguing and highly useful book on Dwight Eisenhower's extraordinary ability as a leader. If you liked Ike before, you'll like him even more now. And you'll be grateful to Geoff Loftus." --Christopher Buckley, author of Boomsday and Thank You for Smoking"In Lead Like Ike, Geoff Loftus provides keen insights on management lessons drawn from one of the greatest battlefields in military history. The lessons may appear simple, but it's the simplest management principles that we often forget: Listen to your people. Set your vision. Be consistent about your message. Let your managers manage." --Salvatore J. Vitale, Senior Vice President, The Conference BoardWho was the greatest CEO of the 20th century? A persuasive case can be made for General Dwight D. "Ike" Eisenhower, who undertook history's most harrowing executive assignment: Operation Overlord, the Allied invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe on June 6, 1944. In Lead Like Ike, business journalist and communications guru Geoff Loftus weaves a fly on-the-wall narrative from Ike's perspective as supreme allied commander overseeing the Normandy invasion. While swept into a gripping story that honors the sacrifice of all who fought and died on D-Day, you'll also be drawn to a cache of battle-tested strategies and tactics with direct applications to modern-day business leadership.
Lead Like It Matters to God Study Guide: Eight Sessions on Becoming a Values-Driven Leader
by Richard StearnsLead Like It Matters to God by Richard Stearns is about how the values Christian leaders embrace are more important than the success they achieve. This eight-session companion study guide explores seventeen values that will transform your leadership. Following the structure of review, reflect, and practice, this dynamic guide also provides discussion starters for groups to have honest conversations about how values-driven leadership not only improves their witness for Christ but also influences culture and creates healthy workplaces where people and teams flourish.
Lead Like It Matters to God: Values-Driven Leadership in a Success-Driven World
by Richard StearnsRichard Stearns is a leader who has been tested as a CEO in both secular companies and also as the head of one of the world’s largest Christian ministries. After stints as CEO of Parker Brothers and then Lenox, Stearns accepted the invitation to leave his corporate career to become the president of World Vision US, where he became the longest serving president in their seventy-year history. During his tenure there he implemented corporate best practices, lowering overheads while tripling revenues. His leadership in calling the American church to respond to some of the greatest crises of our time, notably the HIV and AIDS pandemic, and the global refugee crisis, challenged Christians to embrace a bold vision for compassion, mercy, and justice. In Lead Like It Matters to God, Stearns shares the leadership principles he has learned over the course of his remarkable career. As a leader who has navigated both secular and sacred spaces, Stearns claims that the values Christian leaders embrace in their workplaces are actually more important than the results they achieve—that God is more concerned about a leader's character than a leader's success. With wisdom, wit, and biblical teaching, Stearns shares captivating stories of his life journey and unpacks seventeen crucial values that can transform leaders and their organizations. When leaders embody values such as integrity, courage, excellence, forgiveness, humility, surrender, balance, generosity, perseverance, love, and encouragement, they not only improve their witness for Christ, they also shape institutions, influence culture, improve team performance, and create healthy workplaces where people can flourish. Through this book, Stearns will inspire a new generation of Christian leaders to boldly take their values into their workplaces to tangibly demonstrate the character of Christ, the love of Christ, and the truth of Christ as they live out their faith in full view of others.
Lead Like Jesus Revisited
by Ken Blanchard Phil Hodges"The more I read the Bible, the more evident it becomes that everything I have ever taught or written about effective leadership over the past 25 years, Jesus did to perfection. He is simply the greatest leadership role model of all time." -Ken Blanchard Effective leadership--whether on the job, in the community, at church or in the home--starts on the inside. Before you can hope to lead anyone else, you have to know who you are. Every leader must answer two critical questions: Whose are you going to be? Who are you going to be? One deals with your relationship to Christ. The other with your life purpose. In this newly revised classic, renowned leadership expert Ken Blanchard along guides readers through the process of discovering how to lead like Jesus. It really could be described as the process of aligning two internal domains-the heart and the head; and two external domains--the hands and the habits. These four dimensions of leadership form the outline for this very practical and transformational book. With simple yet profound principles from the life of Jesus, and dozens of stories and leadership examples from his own life, Ken Blanchard will once again show us the way effective leaders lead.
Lead Like Jesus for Churches: A Modern Day Parable For The Church
by Ken Blanchard Phil HodgesA moving story, told in Ken Blanchard's appealing parable style, of how a local church can be either a blessing or a curse to their community. In this newly revised version, Lead like Jesus for Churches (formerly The Most Loving Place in Town) is the story of two men; a disillusioned church elder and a gifted young pastor, who recognize that their church has lost sight of its number one priority: loving God and each other. They begin a search—independently at first—to recapture their lost love and then together lead their fellowship in a successful discovery of the secret to becoming a beacon of love in their community. By the end of the story you clearly see why this secret—so simple yet so profound—is vital and how to apply it to the life of your church.
