Our Iceberg Is Melting is a simple story about doing well under the stress and uncertainty of rapid change. Based on the award-winning work of Harvard Business School's John Kotter, it can help you and your colleagues thrive during tough times.

On an iceberg near the coast of Antarctica, group of beautiful emperor pen­guins live as they have for many years. Then one curious bird discovers a potentially devastating problem threatening their home--and almost no one listens to him.

The characters in the story--Fred, Alice, Louis, Buddy, the Professor, and NoNo--are like people you probably recognize in your own organization, including yourself. Their tale is one of resistance to change and heroic action, seemingly intractable obstacles and clever tactics for dealing with those obstacles. The penguins offer an inspiring model as we all struggle to adapt to new circumstances.

Our Iceberg Is Melting is based on John Kotter's pioneer­ing research into the eight steps that can produce needed change in any sort of group. After finishing the story, you'll have a powerful framework for influencing your own team, no matter how big or small.

This tenth anniversary edition preserves the text of the timeless story, together with new illustrations, a revised afterword, and a Q&A with the authors about the responses they've gotten over the past decade.

The Private Devotions Of Lancelot Andrewes is a book written by Lancelot Andrewes and was first published in 1883. The book contains a collection of prayers and meditations that were written by Andrewes, who was a prominent English bishop and theologian during the early 17th century. The devotions in this book were originally written for Andrewes' personal use, but they were later compiled and published for the benefit of others.The devotions in this book are divided into seven sections, each of which is focused on a different aspect of Christian life and faith. These sections include prayers for morning and evening, prayers for various occasions and events, meditations on the Ten Commandments, meditations on the Passion of Christ, meditations on the Lord's Prayer, and meditations on various passages from the Bible.The language used in the devotions is rich and poetic, reflecting the deep spirituality and devotion of Andrewes. The book is considered a classic of English devotional literature and has been widely read and appreciated by Christians of all denominations. It offers a glimpse into the spiritual life of one of the most influential figures in English religious history and provides readers with a powerful tool for deepening their own faith and spirituality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Literary expert Gene Veith helps book lovers better understand what they read as he explains how each major literary genre communicates. Showing how comedy, tragedy, realism, and fantasy can portray the Christian worldview, Veith delves into related topics such as the value of fairy tales, the tragic and the comic sense of life, the contrast between the classical and the Hebraic traditions, and the role of postmodernity (a subject of vital importance to Christians). Introducing readers to writers past and present, Veith helps Christians to influence culture from an educated perspective and get more out of their reading.
