  How was it possible for one woman, later joined by a handful of others, to overcome a large organisation and bring about a gender equality sea change in higher education in her country? This is the story of how the granddaughter of Ireland's most famous suffragette won a gender discrimination case for lack of promotion, the first such win in either Ireland or the UK; then donated her €70,000 award to five other women, also passed over in that promotion round, for their High Court case. It tells of the subsequent Micheline’s Three Conditions Campaign, a four-year epic struggle filled with twists and turns, to get the five women promoted. And then the final success. This is a fascinating and often funny account which will inspire others to take on injustice.

  Vision’s  infinite range of influence knows no boundaries. It flows from the youngest to the oldest, from the novice to the most experienced member of the team. It infiltrates the organization with freshness of purpose and clearness of direction. The leader clothed with the clarity of vision, exposes others to the knowledge, necessity and power of vision. Then becomes an instrument in helping them understand the work of vision. The energy and the ontagiousness of vision develops a persistent personality within the leader and within the organization that recognizes it and seeks after it. Vision helps every person within the organization to see that the role of leader calls their name and refers to them as the leader in their area of influence. This keen awareness awakens dreams that ignite the hearts, inspire the minds and move the people to greatness.
   
  Questions are presented to help the leader reflect on the current state and identify important 
  next steps that will propel the organization forward. Examples and strategies are included which the leader can employ to inspire vision within others and strengthen partnerships with them that build up the organization and help it move to its highest level of effectiveness.

  It Did Happen Here - A History...

  In this satirical alternative history, Professor Jeronimo Herodotease and his team of documentary filmmakers and reenactors revivify the dark days of the Grim Depression and Amerika's descent into dictatorship. In the chaos and strife that followed the assassination of President-elect Frankie van Rosenvelt, General Jackson and a cadre of Forcist-minded cockroaches swarmed the stage, gnawed away at democratic norms, and declared martial law under the guise of restoring "Law and Order." Minorities and illegal aliens were scapegoated for the nation's woes, and dissenters daring to oppose the regime found themselves attacked by the Faux Outlet for News and Entertainment, whisked away to detention camps, or forced into exile. In retelling the stories of radicals and reactionaries, statesmen and demagogues, cultural producers and political censors, Herodotease reveals a polarized Amerika not unlike that of our own contentious age. Woven into the fabric of the narrative are a plethora of vintage photographs, historical artifacts, and propaganda art, all courtesy of The Wolfsonian–Florida International University. While included with the aim of bringing the persons and events of the 1930s back to life, many of these illustrations have been purposefully manipulated or supplied with deliberately deceptive descriptions to challenge those persons who believe everything they see, to think again. In this era of Facebook fakes, misinformation, and disinformation, unless we remain ever vigilant, it can happen here!
