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

Download or read book Pinnacles and Pratfalls written by Elizabeth Birchall and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-11-11 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A fascinating and absorbing story... Before we forget the past, we ought to read her.' Merryn Williams Pinnacles and Pratfalls reflects with humour and depth on Birchall's mobile life from the 'hungry thirties' and selling their piano, through a wartime childhood and her father's early death. Four years in the Royal Navy introduced her to far-flung parts of the UK before she moved on to university, and to social work. Her peripatetic life continued with promotions and further stints at universities, largely in the contentious field of child protection. She lost her ardent religious faith and recognised her sexual identity. Since the death of her beloved partner and her final job as a Research Fellow at Stirling University she now enjoys retirement around Oxford. Changing lifestyles and public policy together offer a slice of social history seen through one pair of eyes. 'The thinking social worker's champion.' Colin Prower 'Beautifully written... moving... honest.' Polly Coles

Download or read book Seeing One Thing Through written by Mel Weitsman and published by Catapult. This book was released on 2023-12-12 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young painter, coming of age in San Francisco’s bohemian 1950s, meets his teacher—Shunryu Suzuki, a pivotal figure in Buddhist America—and dedicates his life to continuing Suzuki Roshi’s teachings Seeing One Thing Through begins with a series of autobiographical memories and reflections going back to Sojun Mel Weitsman’s boyhood in Southern California, his coming of age as an artist and a seeker in the vibrant San Francisco of the 1950s, and his encounter with Zen in one remarkable teacher, Shunryu Suzuki Roshi. From that moment, and for nearly sixty years after, Weitsman’s life took the direct path of Zen—as a student, as a teacher, and as one of the first generations of American Zen masters. The larger portion of the book is a collection of Weitsman’s edited talks, his articulation of “ordinary mind,” and his strong belief that Zen as a way of life is available to all.

Book excerpt: “Is there anybody that Hawk Koch hasn’t worked with? Magic Time should be required reading for three types of people. One, those starting in show business, two, those that have been in show business for a long time, and three, everyone else. Like every movie Hawk has made, Magic Time is a fascinating journey of self-identity. I love this book.” —Mike Myers, Actor, Writer, and Director “Magic Time recounts what I remember about Hawk: someone who never took an opportunity for granted and worked hard to achieve success in his own right. Plus, he was a lot of the fun, and, as the book reflects, we had some memorable adventures.”—Robert Redford, Oscar-winning Actor & Director, Founder of the Sundance Institute & Film Festival “Hawk Koch is without a doubt one of the great Hollywood storytellers I’ve ever known. His adventures in the movie business are so funny and so incredible that I re-tell stories from his career more than ones from my own. And his own personal journey is as heartfelt as it gets.” —Edward Norton, Actor, Writer, and Director “I can personally relate to this moving journey of a man learning to step out from under a father’s shadow. But Magic Time is also filled with fun, surprising stories that only a deep insider could tell.”—Jane Fonda, Oscar-winning Actress, Bestselling Author “I found the book profoundly moving, and insightful about not only the entertainment industry, but human nature. Bravo and congratulations!”—Gale Anne Hurd, Producer, Terminator and The Walking Dead “This book is more than just a great Hollywood memoir. Hawk Koch shares his story with us in a funny, touching, and vulnerable way in contrast to the glitz and glamor of the show business life he leads. If you want to hear a story about what Hollywood is really like read this book. It’s a winner.”—Mark Gordon, Producer of Saving Private Ryan, Grey’s Anatomy, and Criminal Minds
