Change Your Life Change Your World Watkins Media

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

As the world teeters on the brink of massive change, many of us are feeling the urgent call to make changes in our own lives that not only shift us to a new level of individual fulfilment but also create a brighter future for us all. This step-by-step guide shows us how to create lasting change in the world in the only way that counts ...from the inside out. The book offers 10 life-changing Spiritual Lessons, each of which changes the way we see things, the way we experience things and the way we do things. Each Lesson is followed by a Spiritual Workbook, comprising a Daily Declaration, a Call to Action, and a Self-Reflection exercise (that is, something the reader is asked to reflect on at day's end and write in their journal). Written with simplicity and grace and charged with profound spiritual truths, these lessons on themes such as Forgiveness, Gratitude and Surrender shine with passion and clarity to inspire you to live life from a place of enlightened wisdom - and thereby help to shift the bias of human destiny from ego to heart, from poverty to abundance, from war to peace. Amoda Maa Jeevan beautifully and movingly expresses insights for all of us who are ready to re-create ourselves and the world by 'becoming the change we want to see' (as Gandhi memorably put it). The future is in our hands. Here is a timely must-read for the spiritual seeker and the spiritual activist.

Better Under Pressure: How Great Leaders Bring Out the Best Harvard Business School Publis

Książki / Literatura obcojęzyczna

Most business leaders can take only so much pressure before their performance slides. Yet some CEOs deliver their greatest successes when times get toughest--when customers' preferences are shifting away from a company's products, when new regulations are shrinking profit margins, when political unrest is destroying supply lines. In Better Under Pressure, Justin Menkes reveals the common traits that make these leaders successful. Drawing on in-depth interviews with sixty CEOs from an array of industries and performance data from two hundred other leaders, Menkes shows that great executives strive relentlessly to maximize their own potential--as well as stoke their people's innate thirst for their own triumphs. To do so, they draw on a set of three essential and rare attributes: * Realistic optimism: They recognize the risks threatening their organization's survival--and their own failings--while remaining confident in their ability to have an impact. * Subservience to purpose: They dedicate themselves to pursuing a noble cause and win their team's commitment to that cause.* Finding order in chaos: They find clarity amid the many variables affecting their business by culling data and forming the conclusions that matter most to the company. The good news: these three capabilities can be learned. Drawing on a broad range of examples from real companies--including Avon, Yum Brands, Southwest, Procter & Gamble, and Ryerson Steel, to name just a few--Menkes demonstrates how each psychological attribute manifests itself in real life and enables top performance under extreme duress. He also shows you how to develop and deploy those attributes--so you can transform yourself into a leader who only shines brighter as the pressure intensifies. Deeply personal, brimming with compelling stories from real-life CEOs, and packed with powerful insights, tools, and practices, this book is a potent resource for aspiring, emerging, and seasoned business leaders alike.
