Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the book that all chief executives would like their up and coming managers to read! They know from experience that when an executive fails, it is most often not because of a lack of industry knowledge or technical expertise; rather it is because of their poorly developed knowing of themselves and others, their lack of respect for those they manage, hopelessly inadequate listening skills, clumsy communication, and, not surprisingly, a loss of trusting relationships. All of which erode the foundation for true profitability and organizational health. As a leader, you must understand the soul of your business, have a clear vision for the future of the enterprise, and be able to passionately describe how you plan to take the organization to that ideal place. You must live with passion and lead through trust. For over 30 years Dr. R. John Young has been using his proprietary models and techniques to develop trusted and effective leaders. His research into why some leaders flounder while others flourish has led him to the identification of the five essential leadership questions. All leaders must be able to answer these questions if they hope to be trusted by those with whom they must collaborate and by those they lead. These are the foundational questions whose answers separate the authentic from the in authentic, the grounded from the lost, and the true leader from the word itself.

This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by Rebecca McLaughlin, Author of Confronting Christianity In a world of increasing ideological diversity, kids are being challenged to think through their own beliefs at an early age. Questions like How can you believe the Bible is true?; Why can't we just agree that love is love?; and Isn't Christianity against diversity? can seem like roadblocks for kids who are following Jesus, as well as for those who might otherwise consider faith in Christ. In this helpful book—written both for Christian kids and for those who think Jesus is just a fairy tale character—Rebecca McLaughlin invites readers ages 12–15 to dig deep into hard questions for themselves and perhaps discover that the things that once looked like roadblocks to faith might actually be signposts.

Download or read book Grooming Etiquette Manners for Teens Young Adults Future Leaders written by Gerard Assey and published by Gerard Assey. This book was released on 2022-12-04 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Think for a moment how would you feel if someone: Never says 'Please' or 'Thank You' when you help them? Or Takes or Shares your things but never shares anything of theirs with you? Snatches the remote, while you are watching TV? Makes a loud noise while eating? Belching loud? Or pushes ahead of you in a queue? Who you are shows in how you behave and also in how you appear to others. How you look, talk, walk, sit, stand and even how you feel-in a word, the sum of how you present yourself will always speak volumes about who you are. Good manners cost us nothing, but will help us win almost everything. Good manners put others before you- the skills of respecting others and making people feel easy and comfortable. If you show good manners everywhere you go, then you are more likely to encourage others to behave in the same way towards you In today's increasingly global arena, technical knowledge alone is not enough to ensure success. Sophistication is more and more the catchword. Given a choice between two equally talented individuals, corporations will choose the candidate with greater interpersonal and social grace skills to represent it. As our world becomes a smaller place and our economy becomes increasingly global in scope, it is becoming increasingly clear how important good manners are in all cultures. In fact knowing how to treat others well is more important now than ever. How we look, talk, walk, sit, stand, eat – ie; how we present ourselves creates the first impression that others form of us. This is true not only in personal life but more so in our professional life. With a world that’s becoming more and more competitive, proper business etiquette and interpersonal skills play an increasingly important role in the success or failure of anyone’s business career and the company they represent. Knowing how to behave courteously and professionally is far from trivial. Etiquette and protocol does count in the business world, as no matter how brilliant an employee may be, his or her lack of social grace can make a bad first impression on clients and business associates. Studies have shown that more than 60% of what is believed about us is based upon visual messages- What people see! At many Fortune 500 companies, top management take potential front line employees to lunch or dinner to observe their comfort level with executives, spouses, waiters and even with the various pieces of silverware. Like it or not, management equates good manners with competence and poor manners with incompetence. Table manners can make or mar a mega-merger, especially in an era when companies are competing on the basis of service-this can be a crucial business skill. Good manners are good business! Your inability to handle yourself as is expected could be expensive--no one will tell you the real reason you didn't get the job, the promotion, that big business deal or the social engagement. Your social graces and general demeanor can tell as much about you as the way you handle an issue. Fair or not, others equate bad manners with incompetence and a lack of breeding, and the cumulative effect of this repeated faux pas in an organization, can be devastating leading to a major loss of respect, credibility, loss of reputation, and business! Your Success can start today with ‘Grooming, Etiquette & Manners for Teens, Young Adults & Future Leaders’ This book will help increase your confidence in your image, manners, business etiquette and interpersonal skills to help you build rapport and trust with your business customers and associates. They are not only important to know now, but will benefit you throughout your life, adding to your future success in the world of work, with you having a competitive advantage in everyday life- at university, work and in your future careers-In fact this is the only survival skill!

Download or read book Concise Answers to Common Complex Questions written by Bruce Tucker and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-06-05 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early in his ministry Bruce Tucker discovered that people frequently asked about the same tough issues of the faith. Certain questions repeatedly surfaced. Every Christian encounters these issues in the first few years of their faith. These issues can be very emotional, especially to those who hold different convictions about the answers. These questions are also controversial. There is a considerable difference of opinion about the answers, and that is why the questions have not been resolved. Christians can not agree. Until they do, people will continue asking. Individuals desire to have some resolution. These questions have a practical impact on their lives. Few people ask about the number of angels that can dance on the head of a pin. They simply dont care. It doesnt directly affect them. These issues do have an impact. How can evil and a loving God both exist? Can a Christian lose his or her salvation? How can God predestine people who still have a free will? Is healing guaranteed to all Christians? Can a Christian be demon possessed? Should one seek the baptism of the Holy Spirit? What are the mysterious gifts of the Holy Spirit?

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together
Download or read book Start with Why written by Simon Sinek and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-12-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspirational bestseller that ignited a movement and asked us to find our WHY Discover the book that is captivating millions on TikTok and that served as the basis for one of the most popular TED Talks of all time—with more than 56 million views and counting. Over a decade ago, Simon Sinek started a movement that inspired millions to demand purpose at work, to ask what was the WHY of their organization. Since then, millions have been touched by the power of his ideas, and these ideas remain as relevant and timely as ever. START WITH WHY asks (and answers) the questions: why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it. START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who have had the greatest influence in the world all think, act and communicate the same way—and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.

Download or read book Leadership Lessons 10 Keys to Success in Life and Business written by Jim Swartz and published by Association for Talent Development. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Achievers - the masters, innovators, and great ones - do not owe their success to luck, birth, or environment. Rather, great achievers throughout history - from Michelangelo to Einstein, Madame Curie to Bill Gates, Colonel Sanders to General Eisenhower - all have characteristics that the authors have distilled into actions for extraordinary success - in any field. In the process, some old notions are put to rest - including the saw that innovators must be risk takers (in fact, they not) and that great ideas just happen. This book ranges from the importance of preparing for success (acquiring expertise) to endurance against obstacles and recognizing and then seizing opportunities. None of it is easy, they say, but the rewards can be substantial. This fascinating book will be especially helpful for senior executives, ambitious managers, and entrepreneurs; many will find the clarity of its prose and sometimes surprising relevance of the examples and keys inspirational.
