Book excerpt: HR Manager: A Zookeeper is a philosophy containing the power to achieve true control over employees of the organization by identification of basic nature or personality of individual employees and by applying the tactics of a zookeeper. In this book, I present a philosophy that is relevant to everyone, regardless of age, sex, or nationality. If you pick this book up and read it to its conclusion, I can guarantee that you will clearly visualize a path to success opening up before you, especially if you are handling manpower. In almost all organizations, Human Resource policies are made to control and regulate the workforce of the organization. The HR department finds that the implementation of the HR policies is somehow difficult with some of its employees. This is because in an organization different types of people with different types of personality works. All these personalities have something unique while something in common. These personality differences lead to conflict among the workers or between organizations and workers. Good HR managers understand the personality and type of the worker to resolve the issues. A human being's personality matches with certain animal’s personality. The HR Manager will be able to act as an organization zookeeper, who is able to control and regulate various types of animals, birds, and creatures types of employees. The application of various management theories often presented difficulties while solving practical conflict resolution problems. There is an acute shortage of books on the types of human personality matching with animal’s personality. I wrote this book especially for Human Resource Managers, which will certainly help them to understand the various types of employees to control, regulate, make teams, make pairs or groups enhance the productivity of performance in organizations. CONTENTS The book contents include the human being as a social animal, the role of Functional Managers or Human Resource Manager as Zookeeper, various similar personality characteristics of human and animal /birds /reptiles /creatures like Ant, Bull, Cat, Crow, Crocodile, Dogs, Donkey, Elephant, Fish, Fox, Giraffe, Goat, Horse, Hippo, Lion, Monkey, Pig, Rat, Scorpio, Snake, Tiger, etc. Like most of the managers, prefer to identify the ‘Horses’ of their departments, whereas they want to kick out the ‘Donkey’ type of employees from their department. Every organization is looking for an ideal employee having a radical performance like ‘Horse’, having a dominating personality like a ‘Lion’, who can find the solution of the problems of the organization by sniffing like a ‘Dog’, who can follow up the organization's objectives like ‘Ant’, Who is farsighted like a ‘Giraffe’, Who applies his intelligence and acts like a ‘Fox’, Who applies his full energy to achieve organization's objectives like a ‘Bull’ or one who has big sensory organs like ears, nose with a sharp memory like an ‘Elephant’. In most the organization horses, donkeys, monkeys, lions, and foxes are an easily identifiable class of animals among workers. This book extends the classification of such personalities to understand and taming techniques used by the management. IMPORTANT FOR The book will be useful for all HR Managers, functional heads, entrepreneurs, directors, functional managers, management students, and all readers. BENEFITS OF THIS BOOK · Identity makes a difference to distinguish who an individual is and what propels him or her. Being mindful of one's identity and inspiration might empower an individual to overcome feelings and inclinations when stood up to with a choice. Self-knowledge might moreover offer assistance to a person to use information more effectively to improve decision-making. Knowing employee's identities can offer assistance to managers not as it were to know them but moreover to oversee them productively. on the off chance that you'll distinguish what basic type of representatives supervisors have, and after that recognize their interesting unreasonable behaviors, managers will be in a much better position to manage these behaviors and, eventually, reach their objectives. Identity could be a guide to managers that make a difference in their planning and execution. · Making managing people enchantment: This book makes a difference within the understanding of the identities of employees which can Inspire, and Improve, not as it were the managers but to the organization. Whether a manager or an entrepreneur searching for guidance in managing the people of their organization successfully, this book could be a must-read for managers looking to build effective and economical departments or teams. This manual contends that in the event that they are not understanding individuals, not analyzing their identity characteristics, they are already losing. It helps managers, why category creation among employees should be viewed as another column of business strategy, along with efficiency. Anyone looking to build and manage a business successfully should read this book cover to cover. · Understanding the employee's nature can improve a manager's efficiency, effectiveness, and time administration abilities. Understanding employee personality types can diffuse clashes before they arise. Understanding personality type helps managers to find the proper work for the employee. For example, in case the employee is very extroverted, he or she may not perform well in a position where he or she doesn’t connect with people. Meanwhile, an introvert probably isn’t attending to be as satisfied in a customer service position.

Designed to make the material more accessible and personally relevant, the book includes the following special features: *Manager's Checkpoints--a series of questions that help the reader apply the material to his or her own organizational context; *Boxes that describe real-life examples of how companies respond to HR challenges; *For Further Reading--references to articles published in outlets that bridge the academic-practitioner divide; *Manager's Knots--presented in a question-and-answer format, these describe typical managerial problems, take the reader into some of the gray, ambiguous areas of HR, and suggest ways to apply the chapter material to real-life managerial dilemmas.

Download or read book Managing Work life Balance written by David Clutterbuck and published by CIPD Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work-life balance is one of the most important issues facing employers and managers today. Employees at all levels are no longer willing to trade their quality of life in order to get a decent standard of living. Managers can no longer afford to ignore the costs that the long-hours culture imposes on their organisation. Overwork causes stress-related absenteeism, poor retention levels, low creativity, appalling customer service and unethical employee behaviour. Combine that with the risks of being sued by a stressed employee or a parent who wanted to work flexibly, and the business case for paying real attention to work-life issues has never been stronger. This text sets out the roadmap for moving your organisation towards a positive work-life culture. With clear and practical advice for HR and line managers alike, Managing Work-Life Balance shows you how to engage employers, managers and employees in the process of controlling the inherent conflicts between the worlds of work and home.

Download or read book Going Public My Adventures Inside the SEC and How to Prevent the Next Devastating Crisis written by Norm Champ and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2017-03-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insider’s look at the SEC and the changes needed to strengthen the U.S. financial system In 2008, Americans were reeling from the devastating financial crisis that caused the Great Recession. There were searing questions about how the crisis was allowed to happen and calls for immediate reform from Capital Hill, the news media, and the general public. Multiple scandals sent real fear through the investing community and brought unprecedented heat on the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). There was little doubt that the SEC had to fix rules that permitted bad behavior, shake off decades of complacency and enforce existing laws. Wall Street lawyer Norm Champ spent nearly 20 years dealing with the SEC on behalf of his clients and as an industry representative working to educate the agency about hedge funds. Believing he could help reform the deeply-flawed agency, Champ left his career in the private sector and joined the SEC. As Director of the Division of Investment Management, he became a key player in stabilizing trillions of dollars of investor capital while reenergizing the SEC’s culture and management. In Going Public, Champ presents a rare, insider’s look at how the SEC operates and explains exactly how the agency impacts the overall economic health of the country. He examines the inner workings of hedge funds, economic policy and politics, investing, and inefficient and frustrating federal agencies. Engrossing and important, this book offers critical recommendations for policy changes that will create healthy, free-functioning markets and help Americans better prepare for the inevitable next crisis.

(For example, if you need to learn about crisis management and security, read chapters 10–12.)

This book is your indispensable manual for IT management and leadership, no matter what business you’re in.

The Crab of Hate is the personification of Calman's depression and her version of the notorious Black Dog. A constant companion all her life, the Crab has provided her with the best, and very worst of times. This is a very personal and affecting memoir of how, after many years and with a lot of help and talking, Susan has embraced her dark side and realised that she can be the most joyous sad person you'll ever meet. CHEER UP LOVE IS FUNNY, POIGNANT AND (HOPEFULLY) INFORMATIVE. IT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO TALK AND TO REALISE YOU ARE NOT ALONE. *If you loved Cheer Up Love, try Sunny Side Up, Susan's Calmanifesto of Happiness*
