Whether you choose it or it is thrust upon you, change brings both opportunities and turmoil. Since
Transitions was
first published, this supportive guide has helped hundreds of thousands
of readers cope with these issues by providing an elegantly simple yet
profoundly insightful roadmap of the transition process. With the
understanding born of both personal and professional experience, William
Bridges takes readers step by step through the three stages of any
transition: The Ending, The Neutral Zone, and, eventually, The New
Beginning. Bridges explains how each stage can be understood and
embraced, leading to meaningful and productive movement into a hopeful
future. With a new introduction highlighting how the advice in the book
continues to apply and is perhaps even more relevant today, and a new
chapter devoted to change in the workplace,
Transitions will remain the essential guide for coping with the one constant in life: change.
Give and Take: Why Helping Others Drives Our Success
https://www.amazon.com/Give-Take-Helping-Others-Success/dp/0143124986/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1416626167&sr=1-1&keywords=give+%26+take+by+adam+grant
For generations, we have focused on the individual drivers of success:
passion, hard work, talent, and luck. But in today’s dramatically
reconfigured world, success is increasingly dependent on how we interact
with others. In
Give and Take, Adam Grant, an award-winning
researcher and Wharton’s highest-rated professor, examines the
surprising forces that shape why some people rise to the top of the
success ladder while others sink to the bottom. Praised by social
scientists, business theorists, and corporate leaders,
Give and Take opens up an approach to work, interactions, and productivity that is nothing short of revolutionary.
Confidence: How Winning Streaks and Losing Streaks Begin and End
https://www.amazon.com/Confidence-Winning-Streaks-Losing-Begin/dp/1400052912
Is success simply a matter of money and talent? Or is there another
reason why some people and organizations always land on their feet,
while others, equally talented, stumble again and again?
There’s
a fundamental principle at work–confidence–that makes the difference
between winning and losing in any competition, be it a high school
basketball game or a high-stakes business situation. In
Confidence,
Harvard Business School professor Rosabeth Moss Kanter shows why
organizations of all types may be brimming with talent but not be
winners. Based on her extraordinary investigation of success and failure
in companies such as Continental Airlines and Verizon and sports teams
such as the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles, as well as the
arenas of education, health care, and politics, Kanter explores a new
theory and practice of success and provides people in leadership
positions with a prescriptive program for maintaining a winning streak
or turning around a downward spiral.
Packed with brilliant, practical ideas,
Confidence
provides fresh thinking about success in all facets of life—from the
factors that can make or break corporations and governments to the keys
for successful relationships in the workplace or at home.
