What is happening today is very surprising. Is it because people are only out to enrich themselves and to oppress others. It should also be a peaceful coexistence and not always just wars and other conflicts. Having been in IT for decades, I got around to writing my own books about 2 years ago and this has shown its success.
A whole new approach to business communication by two brilliant, Harvard-based educators, trainers and consultants. Kegan and Lahey show us how the way we talk in the workplace can be understood as seven different types of speaking, seven languages that reveal our attitudes, expectations, corporate culture, hidden agendas, emotional baggage, motivation and other crucial characteristics and issues. They show how all managers and executives are actually leading "language communities" wherein certain ways of talking are encouraged and others made apparentlly (but not actually) "impossible". And most importantly the provide the organizational analysis, workshieets, and sample dialogues which provide a revolutionary new technology for long-lasting positive change, showing everyone who works how to: * Convert compaining into an honest statement of underlying belief and mission * Stop blaming and take responsibility * Convert traditional myths about the organization into realistic progress * Replace flattery and artifical rewards with ongoing regard * Change "contructive criticism" to courageous dialogue from differeng perspectives.Show book

A fully revised and updated edition of the award-winning guide to staying relevant and competitive in the future of work. The need for skills that defy disruption has never been so urgent, as traditional workplace models give way to confronting new rules of engagement. If you’re looking for job security, growth and acceleration in a radical, new workforce, then Future Fit is the place to start. Award-winning author Andrea Clarke shares her experience, expertise and tactical advice on how to become truly Future Fit. “The future of work is here and it’s about talent – your talent. It’s about upgrading our human skills because they’re landing differently in a hybrid environment,” says Clarke. “These skills are powerful differentiators in a dynamic and demanding new workplace.” Using her experience from a vibrant and varied career, Clarke explores the eight ‘real skills’ we need for the 2020s: Reputation Capital, Adaptability, Communication, Networking, Creativity, Problem-solving, Leadership and Learning. A former Washington D.C. news reporter, Iraqi humanitarian aid worker and EdTech pioneer, Clarke founded FutureFitCo in 2012 – a business that trains emerging leaders to accelerate these core competencies. The Future Fit Digital Program, adapted from this book, is delivered globally to multi-national organisations.Show book
"Switch" by Chip Heath, Dan Heath : Book SummaryNOTE–THIS IS A BOOK SUMMARY OF THE FOLLOWING BOOK: Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard by Chip Heath, Dan HeathORIGINAL BOOK DESCRIPTION:Why is it so hard to make lasting changes in our companies, in our communities, and in our own lives?The primary obstacle is a conflict that’s built into our brains, say Chip and Dan Heath, authors of the critically acclaimed bestseller Made to Stick. Psychologists have discovered that our minds are ruled by two different systems—the rational mind and the emotional mind—that compete for control. The rational mind wants a great beach body; the emotional mind wants that Oreo cookie. The rational mind wants to change something at work; the emotional mind loves the comfort of the existing routine. This tension can doom a change effort—but if it is overcome, change can come quickly.In Switch, the Heaths show how everyday people—employees and managers, parents and nurses—have united both minds and, as a result, achieved dramatic results: ? The lowly medical interns who managed to defeat an entrenched, decades-old medical practice that was endangering patients.? The home-organizing guru who developed a simple technique for overcoming the dread of housekeeping.? The manager who transformed a lackadaisical customer-support team into service zealots by removing a standard tool of customer service In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change. Switch shows that successful changes follow a pattern, a pattern you can use to make the changes that matter to you, whether your interest is in changing the world or changing your waistline.Show book

It all affects the way we behave, make decisions and interact socially. In this e-book, let's talk about emotional intelligence and how it influences in all areas of your life.Show book
