Download or read book The Lost Art of the Good Schmooze written by Diana Boxer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-02-18 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how a good schmooze can be turned to social benefit, without the humiliation of "sucking up" or the hypocrisy of the "the hard sell." The good schmooze is talk about life itself: the good, the bad, and the ugly—a heartfelt interaction with others—chatting, not "chatting up." The Lost Art of the Good Schmooze: Building Rapport and Defusing Conflict in Everyday and Public Talk is about what to say, when to say it, and how to say it. Full of insights that will prove useful at work, at home, with friends, and just about everywhere else, the book will help readers become tactful schmoozers who can defuse situational tensions and lubricate personal, social, workplace, and political interactions with others. The book is organized around five occasions: schmoozing in social interactions, family schmoozing, schmoozing in the workplace, schmoozing in education, and schmoozing in cross-cultural interactions. Examples of both successful and failed schmoozing are drawn from television, films, news, and everyday life. Hundreds of real-world verbal interactions illustrate how recapturing this lost art can lead to increased harmony in all spheres of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do so many educators leave the profession defeated and deflated after years of tirelessly advocating for students? No Justice for Dean uncovers what can happen to such an educator who strives to give students an educational framework in which they could flourish. Here is the story of one man’s quest to change the landscape of secondary education in America. Dean, a public school administrator, pursues his dream of creating a school where there is classroom democracy, respect for student voice, and authentic career preparation based on students’ interests and talents. Unfortunately, his charter school becomes more of a nightmare as Dean is met with plenty of obstacles. Rigid testing requirements, self-serving teachers and board members, and an unsympathetic state charter school authorizer stomp on Dean’s vision and divert him from his mission where students come first. In the end, Dean learns valuable lessons about why it really is so difficult to change an education system that has been in place for well over one hundred years.

Download or read book Ethics in Psychology and the Mental Health Professions written by Gerald P. Koocher and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-16 with total page 666 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most mental health professionals and behavioral scientists enter the field with a strong desire to help others, but clinical practice and research endeavors often involve decision-making in the context of ethical ambiguity. Good intentions are important, but unfortunately, they do not always protect the practitioner and client from breaches in ethical conduct. Academics, researchers, and students also face a range of ethical challenges from the classroom to the laboratory. Now in a new expanded edition, Ethics in Psychology and the Mental Health Professions, the most widely read and cited ethics textbook in psychology, has emerged with a broadened scope extending across the mental health and behavioral science fields. The revised volume considers many of the ethical questions and dilemmas that mental health professionals encounter in their everyday practice, research, and teaching. The book has been completely updated and is now also relevant for counselors, marriage and family therapists, social workers, and psychiatrists, and includes the ethics codes of those groups as appendices. Providing both a critical assessment and elucidation of key topics in the APA's guidelines, this comprehensive volume takes a practical approach to ethics and offers constructive means for both preventing problems, recognizing, approaching, and resolving ethical predicaments. Written in a highly readable and accessible style, this new edition retains the key features which have contributed to its popularity, including hundreds of case studies that provide illustrative guidance on a wide variety of topics, including fee setting, advertising for clients, research ethics, sexual attraction, how to confront observed unethical conduct in others, and confidentiality, among others. Ethics in Psychology and the Mental Health Professions will be important reading for practitioners and students-in training.

Download or read book The Manager s Book of Decencies written by Steve G. Harrison and published by McGraw Hill Professional. This book was released on 2007-04-20 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a philosophy of doing business that goes beyond the transfer of goods and services. It calls for a transfer of values known as of small decencies. This book shows the way. Steve Harrison, longtime management and corporate culture innovator, knows one simple truth: The long term success of any company, small or large, local or global, depends largely on its culture. Change a company's internal culture for the better, and results skyrocket. But can a manager really adjust the culture of an entire work force, especially in a large corporation? Small decencies make it easy, and in this book Harrison describes dozens of such decencies, all field-tested by the best companies in the world. All represent small changes that produce big results. Addressing concerns at every level of corporate culture, from the entry level to the CEO's office, Harrison shows how decencies will enhance communication, build teamwork, boost productivity, and create a stronger dedication to a shared mission company-wide. The Manager's Book of Decencies provides real-life examples of small decencies that result in major business impact, and that you can put to use in your company. What is a Small Decency? Greet coworkers authentically and personally Remember to say thank you-or better yet, write thank you notes For meetings you convene, be the first to sit down and the last to get up Welcome visitors by name. Better yet call them “guests” Answer your own telephone Give away recognition when things go well; hoard responsibility when they don't Convey bad news in person When you make a mistake, admit it and apologize The Manager's Book of Decencies delivers a top-to-bottom approach to creating the kind of positive corporate culture, which has shown time and again to improve performance, attract and retain top talent, promote well-behaved organizations, and advance a vision of shared values. This is crucial reading for every manager.
