Whoever repeatedly encounters inner barriers in his or her job that stand in the way and/or prevent satisfaction will immediately benefit from the following book.It shows you new ways - if you feel that you are sabotaging your own professional success - if you are not able to live up to your full potential as a leader - if you are always having difficulties with superiors and authorities- if you are compulsively exhausted at work and constantly under stress (burnout!)- if you are very professionally involved, but feel strangely empty and unfulfilled- if you are threatening to go under in your family business It also gives you an overview of the constellation method, how it can be used in families and also organizations.Realize how early experiences and hidden loyalties bind and inhibit you. Break down barriers of childhood and family history! This book is the fruit of 25 years of seminars on family dynamics using the method of family constellations, which I have held in Germany and all over the world (including China, the USA, Russia, South Africa).You are successful if you only really want to be? But willpower and effort are not everything. Some people make huge efforts, fight hard, but somehow they sabotage themselves.Stop trying even harder. Instead, understand the deeper reasons for failure - and find the way to release your energy and your full potential. Does this also apply if you have separated or renounced your family?Even if you distance yourself geographically or inwardly from the family from which you came, you and your family remain much more influenced by your roots than you realize. There is a deep unconscious loyalty of children to their family. This loyalty influences all important decisions in life and determines much of how they live their lives and how satisfied they are with them.

Download or read book Leaders Eat Last written by Simon Sinek and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller by the acclaimed, bestselling author of Start With Why and Together is Better. Now with an expanded chapter and appendix on leading millennials, based on Simon Sinek's viral video "Millenials in the workplace" (150+ million views). Imagine a world where almost everyone wakes up inspired to go to work, feels trusted and valued during the day, then returns home feeling fulfilled. This is not a crazy, idealized notion. Today, in many successful organizations, great leaders create environments in which people naturally work together to do remarkable things. In his work with organizations around the world, Simon Sinek noticed that some teams trust each other so deeply that they would literally put their lives on the line for each other. Other teams, no matter what incentives are offered, are doomed to infighting, fragmentation and failure. Why? The answer became clear during a conversation with a Marine Corps general. "Officers eat last," he said. Sinek watched as the most junior Marines ate first while the most senior Marines took their place at the back of the line. What's symbolic in the chow hall is deadly serious on the battlefield: Great leaders sacrifice their own comfort--even their own survival--for the good of those in their care. Too many workplaces are driven by cynicism, paranoia, and self-interest. But the best ones foster trust and cooperation because their leaders build what Sinek calls a "Circle of Safety" that separates the security inside the team from the challenges outside. Sinek illustrates his ideas with fascinating true stories that range from the military to big business, from government to investment banking.
