Download or read book Squawk written by Dr. Travis Bradberry and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unfortunately, we've all seen it happen. When faced with a problem, rather than working cooperatively to come up with a solution, your manager or colleagues come swooping in, squawking loudly, dump orders riddled with formulaic advice, and then take off, leaving you and everyone else to clean up the mess. Or—let's be honest: there may have been a time (or three) when you have been guilty of doing that very thing yourself. While this happens in every workplace worldwide more frequently than ever, it doesn't have to. Through the story of Charlie, a seagull who doesn't understand how his management actions are holding back his flock, Travis Bradberry, Ph.D., reveals the three virtues of great leadership that he has used to help thousands of people and organizations deal with seagull managers in the workplace and, just as important, to avoid being one themselves. Charlie the seagull is a well-intentioned manager who, when faced with new challenges after previously leading his flock to success, fails to understand how his management style is holding back, rather than helping, his team. Through our bird's-eye view of Charlie, overconfident Scott, quiet Maya, practical Yufan, and skinny, shy Alfred, we see them and the rest of the flock struggle to solve their problems while absorbing the three virtues of great leadership and teamwork along the way. This entertaining and illuminating fable will help make us all more productive, less prone to depositing messes on the heads of those around us, and more able to work effectively with those who continue to squawk at us every day.

Download or read book Squawk of the Were Chicken written by Richard J. Kendrick and published by Richard J. Kendrick . This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by the wit and wisdom of Terry Pratchett, this clockpunk coming-of-age adventure is sure to delight anyone who loved The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents, Equal Rites, or the Tiffany Aching series. Almost nothing interesting ever happens in Deidre's little village, outside of the occasional traveling merchant or troupe of players visiting the marketplace. So it's no wonder that she spends her every free moment designing and building outlandish contraptions, and then relying on her semi-autonomous tongue to get her out of trouble--or dig her in deeper--when the device inevitably slimes Momma with something. Then that self-proclaimed were-chicken hunter rode in. His tall tales of shape-shifting chicken-beasts cock-a-doodling at the moon were good for a laugh until it looked like they were true. Will Deidre be able to catch the monster before suspicions, accusations and eight feet of giant chicken tear her homeland apart? Survivor of the Immerse or Die challenge: "Squawk of the Werechicken really was an easy book to fall for. It's very funny, with a trio of charming, precocious pre-teen protagonists, and a wry, thoroughly tongue-in-cheek tone. If you like humorous writing, buy Squawk of the Werechicken. If you like your kids, share it with them." --Bryce Anderson, author of The Improbable Rise of Singularity Girl

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An affectionate tribute to her tough, powerful Chinese mother.”—Kirkus Reviews “I devoured this book in one sitting...alternately cheering, laughing, cringing, and gasping in horror. Lui captures the complexity of a mother-daughter relationship that is both complicated and beautiful. Poignant with a bare honesty that may make you think (and rethink) your own relationships.” —Jenny Lawson, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of Let’s Pretend This Never Happened Meet Elaine Lui’s mother. She’s “a movie, an Amy Tan novel, and a sitcom all rolled into one.”* Or as her daughter sums it up: “She’s Chinese, she squawks like a chicken, she is totally nuts, and I am totally dependent on her.” With tales of brutal mah-jong competitions, all-cap texts (“YOUR BAD SKIN NEED SOUP”); public shaming, and pearls of occasionally-bizarre wisdom; Lui not only paints a portrait of a challenging, frustrating, fascinating woman that will make you laugh and cry—she eloquently describes exactly what it’s like to love someone who drives you crazy. “A remarkable memoir about Lui’s relationship with her Hong Kong-born mom, who makes Tiger Mothers look like pussycats.”—Tampa Bay Times *Lisa Gabriele, author and TV producer
Download or read book Variation and Co operative Communication Strategies in Air Traffic Control English written by Eveline Wyss-Bühlmann and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2005 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this study is to establish the co-operative communication strategies that are used in air traffic control (ATC) conversations. The research deals with the question: what kind of co-operative communication strategies do pilots and controllers employ in a speech situation with a restricted use of vocabulary, which generally does not permit any deviations from standard phraseology? The strategies in ATC speech are then compared to those used by second language learners. Faerch and Kasper's (1983) taxonomy of communication strategies will serve as a basis for this comparison. The author analyses authentic speech samples from various ATC workstations at Zurich Airport and evaluates various aspects of phraseology training of air traffic controllers.
