Your mindset may be the only thing standing between you and your leadership potential. Break free from the beliefs that hold you back.As a leader, you likely find yourself frustrated at times, wondering why employees don't meet expectations, peers are slow to act, or pressure from your boss falls unfairly on your shoulders. It's easy to point a finger at others and double down on getting results. But have you ever considered that the problem may not be them--it may be you?Through countless hours coaching executives over the past twenty years, Muriel M. Wilkins has pinpointed the biggest reason behind these common leadership challenges: hidden blockers. These unconscious beliefs can actively block progress if leaders aren't aware of their existence, preventing leaders from seeing a situation clearly, solving problems effectively, and advancing their careers.Leadership Unblocked reveals seven beliefs that hold leaders back, from "I know I'm right" to "I need to be involved" to "I don't belong here." Combining powerful coaching conversations and research from the fields of neuroscience, leadership, and adult development theory, Wilkins offers a road map for identifying, unpacking, and breaking through these barriers.By using the tools in this book, you can finally cultivate the mindset to achieve your goals and become the leader you want to be.

Figurative communication (the use of metaphor, metonymy, hyperbole and irony) provides economy of expression, clarity, persuasiveness, politeness, evaluation, and communication of emotions. However, it also increases the potential for misunderstanding in situations when people lack shared background knowledge. This book combines theoretical frameworks with empirical studies that measure the effectiveness of different approaches to the use of figurative language in advertisements, to show how to maximise the benefits of creative metaphor and metonymy in global advertising. It highlights how subtle differences in colour, layout, and combinations of different kinds of figurative language affect the reception and appreciation of creative advertising, shedding new light on the nature of figurative communication itself. With a balance between theory, experiments and practical case studies, this book is accessible for academics in linguistics and communication studies, as well as advertising and marketing professionals.

This book proposes using a 'jury-centric approach' for improving laws, practices, and procedures in jury trials. It also examines juror comprehension research and why judges and lawyers have often been sceptical about this research.

This work introduces Fairbairn's original object relations theory (his psychology of dynamic structure) and applies it to a number of cultural objects.

We can introspect. We can look inwards, as it were, at our own minds and represent what is occurring there. Philosophers and psychologists have speculated about how we do this, but there has been little exploration of the wider theoretical landscape in the area. Could other beings, such as non-human animals and artificial intelligences, introspect too? What forms might their introspection take? Do some humans introspect in nonstandard ways, and can humans develop new introspective powers through techniques such as meditation?This book, a reprint of a special issue of the Journal of Consciousness Studies, explores this neglected landscape. It opens with a target article by the editors, which proposes an ambitious research programme on possible forms of introspection and provides maps and conceptual tools to get the project under way. This is followed by fifteen commentaries from leading philosophers and cognitive scientists. Topics discussed include the experimental study of introspection, introspection in animals, LLMs, and group minds, and the effects on introspection of meditation and certain psychiatric conditions. The volume concludes with a reply by the editors, which revises and extends their original proposal.The Landscape of Introspection offers an informed, contemporary, and challenging view of what introspection is - and could be.

Transforming Love in China examines love, affection, and emotions in China from Maoist to contemporary China, focusing on the intersections with politics, economics, gender, class, race and technology.From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the end of the Cultural Revolution, political ideology and class struggle dominated everyday life, and love was subordinated to the communist revolution and socialism. During the Cultural Revolution, this turbulent period witnessed the paradoxical existence of self-abstinence and self-indulgence. Since China changed its political ideology in 1979 and shifted to a market-oriented economy, the country embraced the idea of romantic love. This "emotional turn" fostered opportunities for diverse intimate relationships characterized by the growth of cross-cultural love, LGBTQI+ love, and the emergence of a "sexual revolution" (Zhang 2011; Jeffreys and Yu 2015). The new dynamic was linked to contested discourses of (fantasised, eroticized, and racialized) foreign love intertwined with nationalist sentiments and ongoing tensions between sexual minorities and the government. The new millennium has witnessed love crises characterised by growing concerns about "leftover" men and women, high divorce rates, declining marriage and birth rates, and other relationship problems. The deepening of the market economy and technological advances have turned love into a "fast food" commodity for mass consumption, manifested in dating shows, digital platforms and intimacy between humans and AI/dolls.Wang draws on a wide range of texts, including government statistics on marriages and divorces, legal documents, Maoist folk songs, poems, posters, love letters, media texts, popular discourses, online dating websites, and ethnographic observations and interviews.
