Great news for Managing with Aloha, for Hawaii publishing, and for work

October 15, 2005 by Rosa Say

I’m on Cloud 9 this morning: MWA has been selected for a 2005 Ka Palapala Po‘okela Award! I’ve posted more about it on www.ManagingWithAloha.com

Managing with Aloha selected for a Ka Palapala Po‘okela Award! announced by the Hawai‘i Book Publishers Association.

The good news for publishing in Hawaii is that the past publishing year saw the highest number of nominations in the 12-year history of the award. In fact, next year will be the inaugural event for the Hawaii Book & Music Festival in the islands: mark your calendars for April 22-23, 2006.

To all of you who have purchased, read, and talked about MWA, thank you.

This recognition has happened because of the buzz you’ve created about how MWA is helping you succeed at work, and I sincerely appreciate it. I am exceptionally grateful. Not just for the success of the book itself, but because we need everyone to manage with the good intent of aloha, bringing more nobility to management if we are to achieve the SLC mission (and my personal mission), of reinventing the workplace for the better. Work can be rewarding, fulfilling, and meaningful for all of us.

Managing with Aloha: Yes! You can too!

July 2, 2005 by Rosa Say

This was the title I decided to give to the manifesto I wrote for www.ChangeThis.com because no matter where you live and work, if you are a manager I believe that Managing with Aloha is for you. That is my mana‘o, my very deeply held belief and conviction; it is a belief I am very passionate about. More on this is posted here.

My sincere mahalo to the generous bloggers who have helped me share the announcement about Managing with Aloha’s arrival at ChangeThis.com: I realize how precious your time and blog real-estate is, and I truly do appreciate your very kind posts!

My Chautauqua is open!

May 16, 2005 by Rosa Say

We’re talking story there about Managing with Aloha and would love to have you join us.

This was one of the first questions I answered there today:

“How have you been able to get people excited about being a manager?”
—Susan Doherty

For the answer to this, or to pose your own question or comment, please come Chautauqua with us at www.virtualchautauqua.com

Have you heard of Chautauqua?

May 4, 2005 by Rosa Say

I love discovering new words, and so I was really intrigued when I got an email a few months ago inviting me to be a guest author for a virtual Chautauqua that would feature Managing with Aloha. What in the world was a Chautauqua, and how was it done virtually?

Hint: If you love books, and you love talking story about them you’ll love Chautauqua.

Long story short, I accepted the invitation, and I’ll be guest author in the Virtual Chautauqua Main Tent the last half of this month, starting on May 15th. I’ve posted more about it (including the definition and history of Chautauqua) on Managing with Aloha Online.

Please visit the Chautauqua website, register to get into the tent (free!) and stop by the Café. Spend some time there this coming weekend or whenever you normally do some ‘net surfing and check out the archives where they’ve had other authors visit virtually. Then, come back to talk story there with me on the 15th!

In April, Bill Torbert, author of Action Inquiry, The Secret of Timely and Transforming Leadership was featured in the Main Tent, and you can read the conversation that’s still posted there about his book — it went on my wish list after I did!  The Chautauqua Café is a second option you can get to (there’s a book game there now that’s kinda fun), and if you are a blogger or writer you will love the suggestions offered to you in The Writer’s Desk.

So please mark your calendars to come visit with me there on May 15th, I love that I lucked out with a Sunday to start on. I’ll post a reminder as the day gets closer, but trust me, you’ll want to check it out before then, bookmark the site, and start Chautauquaing now ” that’s probably not a word, huh?
