Two blokes are scheduled for execution at Paradais Island, the notorious military prison, and have the occasion to reminisce about the past and face their short future together. Dramatica Press plays are designed to enhance readability of the stageplay format by creating a new ergonomic layout and using color to easily differentiate between character names, dialogue, parentheticals, and stage directions. Finalist - Moondance International Film Festival Stageplay Competition Characters CARROTS - Male. Late thirties to early fifties. Carrots is markedly a fish-out-of-water in this environment. Whatever he did---probably some kind of financial crime---landed him here unexpectedly. TENBENNY - Streetwise male. Late thirties to early fifties. Tenbenny always knew what the risks were-and that he could end up in a merciless place like this. Smart enough to be dangerous but dumb enough to get caught. GUARD - Wears military beige khakis. Guard wears a beret or other military hat appropriate for low-ranking military personnel. OFFICER - Wears military beige khakis.* Officer wears visor cap or other military hat to distinguish him/her from the Guard. Officer also wears MacArthur shades and carries a horse whip. * Guard and Officer can be played by the same actor.

Strategies for Action

Management Development

Richard Thorpe

How do you measure managers and leaders? How do you assess their development needs? Leadership and Management Development covers these and other key topics that form the requirements for the CIPD Level 7 Advanced module of the same name. Retitled and revised to focus on leadership as well as management, the book includes multiple perspectives from those who have either experienced or provided leadership and management development alongside analysis and critique to help paint a full picture of the subject. Students will learn to analyse the concepts of leadership and management, identify leadership and management development needs and formulate and implement strategies and interventions. This fully updated 5th edition of Leadership and Management Development features increased coverage of diversity, ecology, ethics and SMEs. At least two case studies per chapter support academic and critical context, and the book takes a more international perspective by considering global leaders and presenting international examples. It is ideal for students studying leadership and management development as part of a CIPD qualification or as part of a general business or HR degree. Online supporting resources include an instructor's manual and lecture slides.
