  • The Leadership Challenge
    Praise for the Fifth Edition of The Leadership Challenge “My heart goes out to Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner with the deepest gratitude for this book, the most powerful leadership resource available. It is providential that at a time of the lowest level of trust and the highest level of cynicism, The Leader- ship Challenge arrives with its message of hope. When there are dark days in our lives, Kouzes and Posner will shine a light.” —Frances Hesselbein, former CEO, Girl Scouts of the USA; author, My Life in Leadership “Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner have taken one of the true leadership classics of the late twentieth century and made it freshly relevant for today’s twenty-first century leaders. It is a must-read for today’s leaders who aspire to contribute in a more significant way tomorrow.” —Douglas R. Conant, New York Times bestselling author, TouchPoints; retired CEO, Campbell Soup Company “For twenty-five years, the names Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner have been synony- mous with leadership. There is a reason for that. This book, in its new and updated form, demonstrates that leadership is a challenge you must win every day. It shows that every leader is unique, with his or her own style, and it helps you find your style. But the real beauty of this book is that it does not just tell you about leader- ship. It takes you by the hand, and walks you through the steps necessary to be better at what you do. It also gives you the confidence to take the kinds of risks every leader needs to take to succeed.

The trail snaked alongside a precipice, then dropped to the Yellowstone River. Far below the clifftops, the river rushed away from Yellowstone’s massive Upper and Lower Falls, squeezed between walls of sulfur- stained sandstone and ancient volcanic spires. Boiling water trickled from small, steaming geothermal cracks along the route, which hikers sometimes shared with bears, eagles, and other wildlife looking for a fish dinner. I paused frequently on our way to “the hole” to admire and contemplate the grandeur of the setting. My son was more interested in the trout.

Albright Training Center Bermultinational Limited, an organization development and management consulting firm, was engaged by the leadership of the National Park Service Horace M. Albright Training Center to perform a program review of the center. The directive for the review project was that it highlight the history, development and programs of the Albright Training Center and include a brief analysis and specific recommendations for the future. The stated purpose of this comprehensive program review, amidst a changing world and a changing National Park Service (NPS), is to assist the superintendent and staff of the Albright Training Center as they plan for Albright' s future within the context of the goals of the National Leadership Council and the direction of the WASO Training and Development Division. Bermultinational Limited was asked to undertake this project as an extension of its original assignment to review the history and direction of the NPS Fundamentals Program. Bermultinational has a fourteen-year history with the National Park Service and has been involved in many strategic planning sessions, task forces, leadership and stewardship committees, and consulting assignments. It is intimately familiar with the need for the NPS to not only sustain but to enhance its Mission to conserve America's scenery, its natural and historic objects and wildlife for the enjoyment of visitors and to ensure that these resources remain unimpaired for future generations.

  • Preservation in the US National Parks by Michelle Sullivan Govani A
    Former to Future: Preservation in the U.S. National Parks by Michelle Sullivan Govani A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved October 2019 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Ben A. Minteer, Chair Megha Budruk Daniel Sarewitz Jason Theuer ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2019 ABSTRACT For more than 100 years, the Unite States National Park Service (NPS) has been guided by a mandate to preserve parks and their resources for the enjoyment of present and future generations. But all parks are subject to conditions that may frustrate preservation efforts. Climate change is melting the glaciers. Rising seas are sweeping away protected shorelines. Development projects, accompanied by air, water, light, and noise pollution, edge closer to parks and fragment habitats. The number of visitors and vested interests are swelling and diversifying. Resources for preservation, such as funds and staff, seem to be continuously shrinking, at least relative to demand. Still, the NPS remains committed to the preservation of our natural and cultural heritage. Yet the practice of that promise is evolving, slowly and iteratively, but detectably. Through explorations of legal and scholarly literature, as well as interviews across the government, non-profit, and academic sectors, I’ve tracked the evolution of preservation in parks. How is preservation shifting to address socio-ecological change? How has preservation evolved before? How should the NPS preserve parks moving forward? The practice of preservation has come to rely on science, including partnerships with academic researchers, as well as inventory and monitoring programs. That shift has in part been guided by goals that have also become more informed by science, like ecological integrity.
