The Definitive Drucker: The Final Word from the Father of Modern Management
By Elizabeth Haas Edersheim, Peter Ferdinand Drucker
Published by McGraw-Hill Professional, 2006
ISBN 0071472339, 9780071472333

The Definitive Drucker captures his visionary management concepts, applies them to the key business risks and opportunities of the coming decades, and imparts Drucker’s views on current business practices, economic changes, and trends-many of which he first predicted decades ago. It also sheds light onto issues such as why so many leaders fail, the fragility of our economic systems, and the new role of the CEO. Drucker’s insights are divided into five main themes that the modern organization needs to, as Drucker would say, “create tomorrow” by Connecting with customers Innovating without abandoning what works Developing lasting partnerships Creating and retaining knowledge workers Establishing disciplined decision making Drucker’s penetrating questions, posed to those seeking his advice, helped business, corporate, and political leaders throughout the 20th century to see their work in a new perspective, and create phenomenal innovation.

Each of Us Can Give-Back — Prosperity For All 2008

So what are you doing with your “Give” jar?

During our Millionaire Mind Intensive weekend, Doug asked us to think about our BIG Dreams. What would our Financial Freedom really mean to us. What would we do with our time, treasure and talent. It was interesting to note that most of the participants had a dream of helping others in our world.

When Michael Skye stood up, he had an Action Plan. If you have met Michael you know that he is an agent for change. His company, VisonForce is dedicated to training visionary leaders, entrepreneurs and those who will change the world instead of talking about it.

VisonForce has taken the lead on organizing a truly remarkable event — Prosperity For All 2008. Michael and a group of VisonForce alumni have made some scholarships available to the Prosperity For All 2008 event.

Scholarships

Scholarships to the upcoming Prosperity For All 2008 event are being offered through the One Million Visionaries campaign. The scholarships make it possible inspiring individuals to attend VisionForce’s iStand Experiences, including the iStand for Prosperity For All 2008, at a reduced price. These scholarships are provided by iStand alumni, who have purchased a scholarship for a rising visionary or a visionary activist, and are standing for them as their sponsor.

Rising Visionary Award – A scholarship for visionary change agents currently lacking in financial resources Visionary Activist Award – A scholarship for visionary activists, who give much of their time in service without pay.

Honoring the Dreamer Scholarship – A scholarship for facilitators of the Awakening The Dreamer Symposium

To apply for one of these scholarships, you must first submit your completed application. Download your application here.

To learn more about the scholarships, read below.

Rising Visionary Award Rising Visionary Awards cover full tuition to an iStand Experience, less room and board, which means the recipient only needs to pay for room and board. For the upcoming 2008 iStand Experiences, full tuition is $2,495, of which $695 is the room and board fee. This makes the value of this scholarship $1,800.
A rising visionary is typically, but not always, an inspired young visionary who has been standing for a better world even in the face of having little financial resources. An example is Clovis Ategeka, a 25-year-old entrepreneur in Kampala, Uganda, who built an internet café, where he teaches entrepreneurship and VisionForce tools to others. Another example might be a young visionary musician, who is barely getting by financially, but whose music is inspiring the world to take a stand. The only limitation on the number of these scholarships given out is the quantity of scholarships purchased by iStand alumni (or others).

Visionary Activist Award Visionary Activist Awards covers $1,200 tuition to an iStand Experience, which means the recipient only needs to pay $1,295 to attend one of the upcoming 2008 iStand Experiences, priced at $2,495, including room and board. The value of this scholarship is $1,200. Recipients of this award are inspired individuals, who standing for humanity through activist efforts, contributing time, effort and energy—often with little or no financial compensation. The only limitation on the number of these scholarships given out is the quantity of scholarships purchased by iStand alumni (or others).

Honoring The Dreamer This special scholarship program was started by Michael Skye, after his participation in the Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream Symposium. A limited number of Honoring the Dreamer scholarships are awarded per year.

Have you been inspired by the idea of the Prosperity for All 2008 event, but don’t feel you can participate at this time. Michael and his iStand alumni are doing their best to get as many scholarships funded as possible. Is this a cause that speaks to you? Maybe after reading about the event, listing to the podcasts and videos at a heart level you might feel, “this is a “Give” jar worthy cause. If so why don’t you contact Michael Skye and ask how you can support the Prosperity for All 2008 scholarship fund.

Leaders Take Action

What happens when highly diverse people find common ground?

“A minor miracle,” says Peter Challen, VP, U.S. Federal Aviation Administration

“People take responsibility for their future,” says Aideen McGinley, Permanent Secretary, Northern Ireland

What Can Millionaire Minds Do To Support The Prosperity For All 2008 Movement?

As visionary leaders standing for prosperity for all, we know that our visions and visionary leadership are critical to creating positive change in ourselves, our communities, and society. We also recognize that we can’t do it alone. For, even as we stand boldly as leaders with brilliant visions for positive change, we need those with authority, resources, information, expertise, and need to achieve our own visions and truly create change in an interconnected system. Future Search enables people from all walks of life discover and act collaboratively on their shared aspirations, even when they assume it is not possible (click here for stories from multiple sectors).

The 50 visionary leaders, who attend our June 10-15 event will be immersed in these processes to build alliances and engage in actionable projects during the final two days of the event. We’ll be connecting you to the Future Search Network of facilitators you can call upon to build bridges in your community to co-create a prosperous future for all involved.
