Jy wil asem skep en die mooi dinge raaksien. Maar soms raak die lewe dol en jy erg gestres. Bewustelikheid (mindfulness) en meditasie kan mens help om met nuwe oe na die wereld te kyk. Johannes de Villiers vertel die stories van gewone mense wat geleer het hoe om beter interpersoonlike verhoudings te he, 'n positiewe bydrae tot die wereld te maak, hul woede en stres beter te bestuur en die wonderskone in elke oomblik – ook die moeilikes – raak te sien. Dit kan ook jou storie wees.

TouchPoints. Creating Powerful Leadership Connections in the Smallest of Moments
Автор: Mette Norgaard
Год издания:
A fresh, effective, and enduring way to lead—starting with your next interaction Most leaders feel the inevitable interruptions in their jam-packed days are troublesome. But in TouchPoints, Conant and Norgaard argue that these—and every point of contact with other people—are overlooked opportunities for leaders to increase their impact and promote their organization's strategy and values. Through previously untold stories from Conant's tenure as CEO of Campbell Soup Company and Norgaard's vast consulting experience, the authors show that a leader's impact and legacy are built through hundreds, even thousands, of interactive moments in time. The good news is that anyone can develop «TouchPoint» mastery by focusing on three essential components: head, heart, and hands. TouchPoints speaks to the theory and craft of leadership, promoting a balanced presence of rational, authentic, active, and wise leadership practices. Leadership mastery in the smallest and otherwise ordinary moments can transform aimless activity in individuals and entropy in organizations into focused energy—one magical moment at a time.
