Summary

Many senior business leaders who fail to achieve the portfolio careers that they desire – and which their careers to date might lead them to expect – do so because unconsciously they commit the Seven Deadly Sins of Nascent NEDs. In this ebook, behavioural change expert Ciaran Fenton explains these “sins” and shows how they can be avoided using the seven principles of The Fenton Model™, which he developed to help business leaders to lead and manage themselves and their teams better at work and particularly to help them to have fulfilling and financially rewarding careers. The Seven Deadly Sins of Nascent NEDs concludes with a template NED Business Plan to document a more successful approach to finding the right NED role.

    The key to success in the knowledge economy is quality employee experience.
    
    Executives must protect knowledge workers (and themselves) from stress and burn-out. How can you and your team be creative when exhaustion and frustration from 24/7 communications, changing priorities, and constant distractions are the norm?
    
    Today's "always-on" work culture actually prevents you and your team from producing what really matters: ideas, innovation, and meaningful results.
    
    According to Maura Thomas in Work Without Walls, "(in the knowledge economy,) the most important individual and corporate resources are neither time nor money, but body and mind." Her research and 20+ years of experience in the productivity field confirm that relationships and productivity suffer when people are stressed, and that greater employee happiness creates success and productivity, and is essential to deliver great customer experiences.
    
    Author Maura Thomas describes how to intentionally create a workplace culture that nurtures creativity and improves productivity by focusing on high-quality employee experience through:
    
    Work-life balance
    Holistic well-being
    Significant results
    Attention management vs. time management
    Effective communication strategies
    Office design that supports both collaborative and focused work
    Vacation and downtime
    Off-site work with healthy boundaries
    Each chapter provides personal shifts and organizational changes through specific action items you can implement now to support the well-being and long-term success of you, your team, and your organization.
    
    "If conventional wisdom says that constant work is necessary for professional success, I can't think of a more important time to buck convention." - Maura Nevel Thomas

    Named a Best Nonfiction Book of 2020 by Cosmopolitan! For anyone who has ever felt their voice isn't heard at work. This is a guide on how to empower yourself and others to communicate with people who think, act, and experience things differently than you do, and do so with more confidence, candor, and authenticity.Too often, people avoid difficult conversations; but these discussions often need to happen to bring people together so we can all succeed.There’s no denying that our workplaces are more diverse than ever. Age, race, gender—there are so many different perspectives and experiences being brought to the table. And the best employees and leaders know that harnessing the power of these differences will build stronger teams, ideas, and organizations. But how do we do this? If we all think, feel, and act so differently, how do we get anything done?The first step is recognizing that these differences exist. And that they’re here to stay. We need to respect and embrace our varied viewpoints, and then we can start to communicate across (not against) them.How to Listen and How to be Heard shows you how to bridge the conversation gap and use your unique voice to start powerful conversations. This book is about learning how to communicate with, through, and alongside what makes us different. It’s about open dialogue and practical tools that get everyone on the same page—or at least in the same room. It’s not about quick fixes or the absence of conflict; it’s about working toward authentic communication in the workplace—for managers, employees, and colleagues from all fields. It’s about remembering that we’re all here to work together.
