Book Ask a Manager

Download or read book Ask a Manager written by Alison Green and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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

  • Author : Kim Price-Glynn
  • Publisher : NYU Press

  • ISBN : 0814767613
  • Pages : 278 pages

Download or read book Strip Club written by Kim Price-Glynn and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stripper chic is in these days: you can watch celebrities "strippercize" on Oprah or do it yourself at your local gym, but this popular face of stripping hides another side of the industry, one that is far less glamorous. In Strip Club, Kim Price-Glynn takes us behind the scenes at The Lion's Den, a rundown club where women are compelled to strip out of economic need rather than as a means of liberation, and a place where strippers' stories often reflect drudgery and dismay. Strip Club reveals the intimate working lives of not just the women up on stage, but also the patrons and other workers who make the place run: the owner-manager, bartenders, deejays, doormen, bouncers, housewives, and cocktail waitresses. Price-Glynn spent fourteen months at The Lion's Den working as a cocktail waitress. Her uncommonly deep access reveals a conflict-ridden workplace fuelled by competing interests and agendas and stereotypical ideas about women, men, sexuality, race, labour, and economic value. Full of rich insights into the world of a single club, Price-Glynn argues that the club environment reproduces gender inequalities through the everyday interactions of customers and workers as well as the broader organizational structure and culture of the modern day workplace. Taking a novel approach to this controversial and often misunderstood industry, Price-Glynn draws a fascinating portrait of life and work inside the strip club.

Book The Hate In Their Heart  Should Not Be Part Of Your American Management Journey

Download or read book The Hate In Their Heart Should Not Be Part Of Your American Management Journey written by Donnalakshmi Selvaraj and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (July 2020) Just released the book titled, "The Hate In Their Heart, Should Not Be Part Of Your American Management Journey." This is a timely release of a book that identifies and discusses Hate-Based (i.e. to dislike, detest, abhor, loathe, despise someone) verses Management-Based (i.e. referring to laws, company policy, strategic intent, data, analysis of information) decision making. This is the SAME Hate-Based and racially motivated decision making used by police, causing violence in America, sparking protests and demonstrations that have quickly spread throughout America and worldwide in 2020. Hate and unethical practices by the police, including murder, have stirred the hearts of people in America and worldwide to demand fairness and justice from police personnel when they perform their job duties. This is the SAME fairness and justice people expect at work when they perform their job duties; however, often times they do not receive this fairness based upon perceived racial and gender injustice, which is the subtle form of Hate-Based decision making that Managers so often explain away to justify and hide "the hate in their heart" and their Hate-Based decision making.This book has been written by two women of color, a mother and her daughter, based upon over 60 years of their combined work experiences in Human Resources/corporate level (mom was an EEO/AA Officer), public, educational, health-care, community-service and faith-based environments and a combined educational background of degrees in Business, Environmental Science and Ministry. These authors take you through this book on a private journey of YOUR Management-decision making to identify "if" YOU make Hate-Based verses Management-Based decisions at work, which is the place where most people try to "live out their American Dream" to make money and/or sustain their respective lifestyles.This is an EXCELLENT book to take a journey through the development of AMERICAN MANAGEMENT theories and practices and to also identify Hate-Based versus Management-Based decision-making. Please note, it was thought the inception of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protected employees against Hate-Based decisions such as discriminatory and retaliatory practices based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin; unfortunately, this Hate-based decision making is back in the workplace.The book starts with references by American politicians encouraging ALL to listen to our better angels. This is a book about Management from an Employee's perspective and also includes multiple WORK BOOKS for Management to privately self-assess Hate-Based verses Management-Based decision-making and also includes EXAMPLES of "best practice behavior" so Managers can self-correct their own behavior. This book is to essentially encourage humane, moral and ethical Management-Based decision making.This book is a follow-up book to the Employee resource book titled, How To Work In Hell Successfully And Not Get Burned By The Flames. Both books have been written as a RESOURCE BOOK for Employees and Managers in the post-2008 Great Recession workplace where economies have been shaken worldwide and getting and/or keeping a job has become more and more challenging due to Hate-Based decisions by Managers.These authors take you on an informational, entertaining, and humorous journey of the history of American Management and American Startups while highlighting one's ability to make Management-Based verses Hate-Based decisions. The Authors gently challenge your heart to self-assess YOUR decision-making process to ENCOURAGE you to make Management-Based decisions as opposed to Hate-Based decisions in an effort to allow YOU and/or the organization you work for to move to your next level of well-being and prosperity – a Management Model to transform your organization from "surviving to thriving" is also included.The Authors hope you will ENJOY this American Management Journey and that this becomes an American classic because they bring to light an age-old and timeless issue of HATE and how "hate can enter into one's heart," which can adversely affect one's ability to thrive, verses just survive, at work or in life - Amen.
