    Dear OM Listserve Subscriber

    I am forwarding the e-mail below on behalf of Susan Feland and Charles

    University Graduate School of Business.

    regards

    Fellow Colleagues,

    For the past several years, professors at Stanford GSB have been using
    short video case vignettes designed by Charles O’Reilly to create very
    engaging discussions with the students on a wide range of topics ranging
    from Management to Accounting. Having had great success with them, we
    would like to share them with you to use in your classes. These video
    case vignettes, with accompanying teaching notes, are now available to all
    academics for FREE through the Center for Leadership Development and
    Research at the Stanford Graduate School of Business.

    The videos are about five minutes in length and capture real leaders
    talking about significant challenges they have faced, decisions they have
    made, and lessons they have learned from the experiences.

    The collection of videos is available at no cost to Academics. They are
    also available for corporate use now. As an academic, you just have to
    register through the website at:

    www.LeadershipinFocus.net

    The videos are organized by topic:

    - Taking Charge

    - Difficult Conversations

    - Vision, Values, and Culture

    - Motivating Teams

    - Making Ethical Decisions

    - Leading Change

    - Mergers and Acquisitions

    - Diversity

    - Developing Leaders

    The videos are each accompanied by a Teaching Guide and Teaching Notes
    that offer background, academic support references, stimulating discussion
    questions, suggested role plays, writing exercise, group work, and oral
    presentations. They help make class preparation quick and easy.

    The portfolio includes leaders who have faced significant challenges
    (e.g., turn-arounds, firing employees, combat in Iraq). Many of the
    leaders are current and former CEOs as well as military officers and
    leaders of non-profit organizations.

    You can download all of the videos and teaching notes directly from the
    website. If you prefer to order printed teaching notes and a DVD you also
    have that option. If you have any questions on the videos or how to use
    them, please contact us at leadershipinfocus@gsb.stanford.edu.

    We hope you will find them helpful!
    Susan
