My book I wrote is mainly about conquering fears. It is a basic inspiration of about fictions of heaven earth GOD angels death of satin. Hope into being lost in mind out of the way of death in to reality of today and love of the resurrections HOPES. As to both be as to conquer and rebuild thought from a wisdom stand point of any compassion. Clear to not like but as to also hate what is evil unlike many stand points in my life this is noticed. As I feel about many things that is all it is my realized understandings of life and a day to day being. What is a man compared to a child as a child never saw nor did any action on many things out of innocents, although when one grew it had a choice to do as to not as to do knowingly, what is in the surroundings or a higher understandings for changes not always coexist but have faith in what is compared to a dream of can be.

This book is about changing the world, being a rebel and having a go. It's about how we recognise the need for shifts and summon the courage to make those changes, starting at the smallest level and eventually revolutionising the very way we lead our teams, our companies and our world. I've often had people, in work and in life, tell me it seemed I was trying to change the world. I would get ahead of them and, sometimes, myself with wild ideas, and they'd encourage me to slow down, break it down so they could understand where my brain was headed. This would frustrate me when I was younger, but not so much now. Now I'm proud to think big -- and changing the world seems a great place to start. Hence the title for this book.As one of Australia's leading female technologists, I've spent my career looking to the future. I've helped more than 40 companies adjust to the information revolution of the last 20 years. I've supported business leaders looking for ways to survive the turmoil of the digital age and position their companies for growth and prosperity, with an ever-watchful eye toward what's next. Along the way, I've learned a little something about leadership, about what society needs to achieve to be, not only successful, but sustainable. It's clear to me now, as reports about climate change, geopolitical turmoil and global pandemic fill our daily news feeds, that the future is no longer a given. Change at all levels must happen to ensure we even have a tomorrow, let alone the bright one we have the potential to create if we combine good leadership with the amazing technologies in development right now. It's my hope that the insights I provide here, based on my personal experiences and many years working in the field, will help prepare and inspire you to face the challenges the present demands. Now more than ever, we need to lead radically, think differently and bring together diverse teams of people with a range of personalities and perspectives to make real change. Let this book guide you in thinking about the world today and the world we could create tomorrow -- one unlike anything we've known before, where humans and technology become even more closely entwined and a new type of leader answers the call.

Listen to people in every field and you'll hear a call for more sophisticated leadership—for leaders who can solve more complex problems than the human race has ever faced. But these leaders won't simply come to the fore; we have to develop them, and we must cultivate them as quickly as is humanly possible. Changing on the Job is a means to this end. As opposed to showing readers how to play the role of a leader in a "paint by numbers" fashion, Changing on the Job builds on theories of adult growth and development to help readers become more thoughtful individuals, capable of leading in any scenario. Moving from the theoretical to the practical, and employing real-world examples, author Jennifer Garvey Berger offers a set of building blocks to help cultivate an agile workforce while improving performance. Coaches, HR professionals, thoughtful leaders, and anyone who wants to flourish on the job will find this book a vital resource for developing their own capacities and those of the talent that they support.
