Avant d’accepter des mandats axés sur la résolution de situations complexes, censés concilier des points de vue souvent inconciliables, Guy Coulombe s’était illustré en occupant des fonctions aussi diverses que secrétaire du Conseil du Trésor, secrétaire général du Conseil exécutif du gouvernement, président de la Société générale de financement (SGF), président d’Hydro-Québec, directeur général de la Sûreté du Québec et directeur général de la Ville de Montréal. Fidèle au rôle de serviteur non partisan de l’État, il a été de tous les chantiers structurants devant mener à l’érection d’un Québec moderne. Soucieux de se tenir constamment au-dessus de la mêlée, il a transcendé les régimes et fait partie de tous les changements de garde. Son parcours recèle de précieuses leçons de gestion, de leadership et de constance dans l’action. À vous de les découvrir et, comme il le fait si bien lui-même, d’en tirer l’essentiel pour l’exercice de votre propre leadership.

Good leadership. Why is it so elusive? Are there successful traits that can be transferred from one field to another, or is it a constant application of imagination to the changing challenges? How do you take others with you? Now more than ever we need leaders who can be strong yet humble, bold and assertive when it counts but have the capacity to listen and learn, who can motivate and influence, and who can get the best out of those around them. Twenty-five outstanding Australian leaders-from diverse worlds such as science, the police force, a netball team, a spy agency, emergency medicine, business, politics and unionism-share their insights and lessons on the essence of inspiring leadership.

Appropriate for use in Australian secondary and undergraduate studies, this unique book does not try to define leadership, but instead encourages the reader to fulfil that task themselves through a series of short essays on the personal and professional life of some contemporary Australians recognised nationally as aspiring leaders in their fields.

D’abord journaliste à La Presse de 1961 à 1968, puis attaché politique et conseiller spécial du ministre unioniste Jean-Guy Cardinal à une époque où tout se construit et se déconstruit au Québec, Luc Beauregard a reçu de précieux enseignements sur les écueils du journalisme et sur les réseaux officiels et officieux d’information. C’est après s’être chargé du redressement éditorial et financier du Montréal-Matin, qu’il réussit malgré des jeux de coulisses contraires et d’âpres conflits de travail, qu’il s’oriente définitivement vers les relations publiques. En 1976, il fonde seul NATIONAL, aujourd’hui le plus grand cabinet de relations publiques au Canada : présent dans neuf des principales villes, l’entreprise emploie plus de 400 professionnels de la communication. Peu à peu, Luc Beauregard s’affirme comme un précieux conseiller en communication et en stratégie auprès des plus grandes entreprises - Molson, Banque Nationale, BioChem Pharma - alors que les crises qu’il a à gérer se succèdent à un rythme effarant - Airbus, Cinar, Churchill Falls. Fidèle à ses idéaux journalistiques, il devient un leader dans son domaine en faisant le pari de la vérité et invente, ce faisant, la façon de faire des relations publiques au Canada. Les auteurs explorent à la loupe le parcours professionnel de ce grand homme afin de révéler ses expériences intimes de l’exercice du pouvoir.

Hasidism, a movement many believed had passed its golden age, has had an extraordinary revival since it was nearly decimated in the Holocaust and repressed in the Soviet Union. Hasidic communities, now settled primarily in North America and Israel, have reversed the losses they suffered and are growing exponentially. With powerful attachments to the past, mysticism, community, tradition, and charismatic leadership, Hasidism seems the opposite of contemporary Western culture, yet it has thrived in the democratic countries and culture of the West. How? Who Will Lead Us? finds the answers to this question in the fascinating story of five contemporary Hasidic dynasties and their handling of the delicate issue of leadership and succession. Revolving around the central figure of the rebbe, the book explores two dynasties with too few successors, two with too many successors, and one that believes their last rebbe continues to lead them even after his death. Samuel C. Heilman, recognized as a foremost expert on modern Jewish Orthodoxy, here provides outsiders with the essential guide to continuity in the Hasidic world.

Written by a team of eminent historians, these essays explore how ten twentieth-century intellectuals and social reformers sought to adapt such familiar Victorian values as `civilisation', `domesticity', `conscience' and `improvement' to modern conditions of democracy, feminism and mass culture. Covering such figures as J.M. Keynes, E.M. Forster and Lord Reith of the BBC, these interdisciplinary studies scrutinize the children of the Victorians at a time when their private assumptions and public positions were under increasing strain in a rapidly changing world. After the Victorians<

Marcel Brisebois, ancien directeur du Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal (MACM), a su faire face à la contestation et répondre avec franchise, parfois même avec un brin d’impertinence et de provocation, ce dont il ne se cache pas, à ceux et à celles qui ont dénoncé ses pratiques et ses choix de gestionnaire. Sa personnalité colorée, sa conception de l’art contemporain en général et tout particulièrement de l’art contemporain québécois et canadien, sa volonté acharnée de constituer une collection d’importance et d’ouvrir l’institution au plus large public possible, et enfin sa détermination à positionner le musée sur l’échiquier muséal international, en ont fait ce que le MACM est aujourd’hui : une institution vivante et prête à relever les défis muséologiques de demain. Considéré le plus souvent comme une figure de contestation, Marcel Brisebois a beaucoup fait parler de lui et dans les termes les plus divers. Mais comment voit-il son rôle de gestionnaire? Quelles doivent être les orientations présentes et futures du Musée d’art contemporain? Et Marcel Brisebois l’homme, l’intellectuel, qui est-il vraiment? D’où vient-il? Comment entrevoit-il son avenir? Toutes ces questions justifient la publication de ce livre sur le parcours exceptionnel de Marcel Brisebois et le Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal.
