Download or read book BSS Surviving Office Politics written by Patrick Forsyth and published by Marshall Cavendish International Asia Pte Ltd. This book was released on 2011-08-15 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lying, cheating, manipulating, conniving, backstabbing, and schmoozing. And don’t forget falsifying, scheming, and even sleeping with someone. All of these go on in the workplace. And we all know someone who is engaged in using devious tactics to further their own career. If you think you can just “work hard” without paying attention to politics, then think again. Politics happens – whether you want to admit it or not. But politicking need not always be bad. You may think that politics is something that only manipulative, self-serving types engage in. But politicking merely describes the act of scrutinising relationships and learning how to influence others more effectively. It is merely a tool. Some people will choose to influence others to further their own devious ends, while others will influence for the good of themselves and the organisation. So here is the definitive answer to engaging with office politics to further your own career in a positive fashion– and deal with the Machiavellian types and pre-empt their efforts.

Download or read book BSS Managing in the Discomfort Zone written by Patrick Forsyth and published by Marshall Cavendish International Asia Pte Ltd. This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is it that effective action is so often difficult to take? How do you make it work when you do take it? Human nature tends to make action difficult – or make it more likely to be delayed or be done half-heartedly (with subsequent negative impact on results). There are so many unpleasant issues to be faced, such as firing people or dealing with poor or unacceptable behaviour and performance; tackling sensitive issues such as bullying and discrimination; and handling awkward or embarrassing situations like networking or prospecting. Too often, managers and others find themselves in the ‘discomfort zone’ with no chance of avoiding involvement and every wish to steer clear of the unpleasantness. This book faces these difficulties head-on and offers a wealth of excellent advice about reducing the discomfort, taking the right action and increasing the result. The key is to recognise the problem of inaction or avoidance, and to put yourself in the discomfort zone on a regular basis.

Download or read book How to Develop Professional Selling Skills Techniques Based on Common Sense Ethics written by Anthony J. Danna and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The message I have for salespeople is based on the knowledge and experience I have acquired from over 45 years of real world selling, sales management, sales training and management of customer service/support centers. The knowledge and insights I want to pass along with my book have not been learned in sales training classes and seminars I have attended or books I have read. The finer selling and human relation techniques I have developed and presented in my book have been learned in the real world of selling. This book is intended to make salespeople aware of the advanced techniques of how to become a successful professional salesperson. These techniques will enable salespeople to attain a higher level of professionalism, confidence, enthusiasm and success when selling. They will be able to separate themselves as true professionals from the crowded field of other capable sales people in their lines of business. My objective is to pass along the knowledge and insights that I have acquired throughout my years of real world selling. This book identifies common selling mistakes and how to avoid them. This book will also reveal to you the many proven, successful selling techniques that I have learned and developed over the years. By learning, understanding and applying these finer techniques of selling, you will be able to further develop your existing selling talents, abilities and skills into your own personalized "art form" of selling! Another purpose of this book is to present guidelines on how to develop, practice and implement techniques for successful, professional selling based on common sense and ethics. Using a common sense approach towards selling will build upon the fact that becoming a successful salesperson involves maintaining a positive frame of mind. It has to do with how you think. It has to do with how you approach selling in your mind and place trust in your intuition. A successful salesperson's two most valuable assets are their mind and their time. Ethics is presented as a key approach. Ethics is such an important topic that I felt the need to instruct salespeople on how to professionally develop and earn their customer's confidence and trust based on ethical business practices. This book will present information and examples on how to develop professional selling skills based on ethical standards. These standards will relate directly to your moral character. The strength of you character will be based on your ability to develop and adhere to high moral standards and principles that will help to set you apart from other salespeople. This book is divided into two sections. The first section examines "Selling Essentials." In the second section, I focus on the "Secrets Of Selling" where I reveal my "120 Fundamental Secrets Of Professional Salespeople." The information, suggestions, techniques, strategies and insights in this book are candid, straightforward, realistic and in focus. They are presented in a condensed form so that they can be easily remembered, referred to and applied on a daily basis. The chapters are designed to be easily read, digested and implemented by the reader. The brevity of some chapters is intended to appeal to people seeking real world, practical, no-nonsense answers to making themselves better salespeople and, therefore, making their sales team more effective.
