Networking for People Who Hate Networking, Second Edition Berrett-Koehler Publishers

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Would you rather get a root canal than schmooze with a bunch of strangers? Does the phrase "working a room" make you want to retreat to yours? Is small talk a big problem? Devora Zack used to be just like you-in fact, she still is. But she's also a successful consultant who addresses thousands of people each year, and she didn't change her personality to do it. Quite the contrary.Zack politely examines and then smashes to tiny fragments the "dusty old rules" of standard networking advice. You don't have to become a backslapping extrovert or even learn how to fake it. Incredible as it seems, the very traits that make you hate networking can be harnessed to forge an approach even more effective than traditional techniques. It's a different kind of networking-and it works.Networking enables you to accomplish the goals that are most important to you. But you can't adopt a style that isn't true to who you are. "I have never met a person who did not benefit tremendously from learning how to network-on his or her own terms," Zack writes. "You do not succeed by denying your natural temperament; you succeed by working with your strengths."

Why People Die by Suicide Harvard University Press

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

In the wake of a suicide, the most troubling questions are invariably the most difficult to answer: How could we have known? What could we have done? And always, unremittingly: Why? Written by a clinical psychologist whose own life has been touched by suicide, this book offers the clearest account ever given of why some people choose to die. Drawing on extensive clinical and epidemiological evidence, as well as personal experience, Thomas Joiner brings a comprehensive understanding to seemingly incomprehensible behavior. Among the many people who have considered, attempted, or died by suicide, he finds three factors that mark those most at risk of death: the feeling of being a burden on loved ones; the sense of isolation; and, chillingly, the learned ability to hurt oneself. Joiner tests his theory against diverse facts taken from clinical anecdotes, history, literature, popular culture, anthropology, epidemiology, genetics, and neurobiology--facts about suicide rates among men and women; white and African-American men; anorexics, athletes, prostitutes, and physicians; members of cults, sports fans, and citizens of nations in crisis. The result is the most coherent and persuasive explanation ever given of why and how people overcome life's strongest instinct, self-preservation. Joiner's is a work that makes sense of the bewildering array of statistics and stories surrounding suicidal behavior; at the same time, it offers insight, guidance, and essential information to clinicians, scientists, and health practitioners, and to anyone whose life has been affected by suicide.

Practical People Engagement Elbereth Publishing

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

From research into high performers and from his own experience, Patrick Mayfield concludes that many of us leading change have prioritised and focused on the wrong things. Great change leaders understand this. Could their focus and different behaviours be the reason for their achievements? Patrick believes the evidence has been 'hiding in plain sight'. Practical People Engagement provides a better approach as well as a rich source of practices and techniques that help the reader get better results from the change they are trying to lead. As well as challenging conventional perspectives and practices on the 'people thing', Patrick provides a better way, observed in the high performers, identifying seven timeless principles of people engagement. The book considers different perspectives, 'hats', on stakeholders, story-telling as a key vehicle of engagement, how Agile relates to good engagement, the leader's favourite word, and the power of collaboration. The main and final section distills the various practices and techniques into a simple five-step pathway. Whilst writing, Patrick applied the principles and practices in this book to the book itself, collaborating with a large number of specialists in related fields. As a result, 'Practical People Engagement' has now been chosen as the source reference for a new APMG International qualification in Stakeholder Engagement. "Readable, practical and written from a sound research base." Mark Withers, CIPD and Mightywaters Consulting. "Any Agile project needs to put significant effort into the way team members communicate but the most successful of those will also employ many of Patrick's tips to communicate most effectively with all who should be involved." Julia Godwin, DSDM Director. "Overall a great read and broad coverage of the subject." Stephen Jenner, author of 'Managing Benefits'.

William Cavendish, first Duke of Newcastle's passions included women, music, writing, theatre and, perhaps above all, the finest horses. He was a widely acknowledged expert in the art of the riding horse, and his works laid the foundation for classical dressage. Mastery in horsemanship was the mark of a graceful and accomplished gentleman in the European nobility of the seventeenth century. In the first comprehensive study of Newcastle's two horsemanship manuals dating from 1658 and 1667, Dr. Elaine Walker explores the insights they offer into riding practice, personal philosophy and motivation. Newcastle's writing has surprising relevance to the modern rider or any reader interested in the long history of the coevolution of man and horse together. 42 engraved plates after Abraham van Diepenbeeck from the 1658 edition are included along with full translations from the original French manual.
