Inner Work: How to Find Clarity, Purpose, and Your Own Hidden Potential at Work - Robichaux - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Inner Work: How to Find Clarity, Purpose, and Your Own Hidden Potential at Work - Robichaux - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Much of the workday, in mindshare and time, is dedicated to outer work: meetings with co-workers, interactions with customers, or working on a deck or other tangible deliverables. For most of us, this is the very definition of “work”: external, externally-focused activity. Inner Work puts forth an assertion that is novel today, but that successful leaders have known for millennia: inner work--the practice of thoughtful attention to the inner experience of yourself and others--is “work” as well, and of crucial importance; not just as a question of wellness or employee satisfaction, but as the engine of a potential transformation in the efficacy (and, yes, happiness) of most organizational workplaces. Inner Work draws on a legacy of thought that spans both the Western and Eastern traditions to frame leadership, creativity, and work as an inner experience. For thousands of years across geographies and cultures, humans have understood that leadership and productivity depend on an individual’s inner balance and understanding. The importance of these lessons in a knowledge economy is well understood today--from Netflix to Zappos to Google to Valve, leading companies are constantly seeking to create value by empowering employees to unlock their own potential. And for the individual--leader, employee, or both--the need is even more urgent and plain: how can you create more value in your work for your human life?Inner Work is a book about self-exploration; it’s also a toolkit for how to improve. Its assertion is that, by looking into ourselves with rigor and integrity, we each have the power to achieve both these goals. This is a book that will help leaders and employees create value for themselves and their organizations by actively exploring their own inner processes, values, and mental models: the tools we use, constantly, to operate in the world.

The Work Revolution - Julie Clow - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Work Revolution - Julie Clow - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Embrace connectivity, increase empowerment, and achieve better work-life blending We live in a new age of global companies, hyper-access to information, and accessibility to tools that enable us to bring any idea life. Strangely, our workplaces are lagging behind the promise of this open and collaborative world. Most organizations are rule-based, top-down, dreary environments optimized for conformity and little else. The Work Revolution creates a compelling portrait of a different kind of work. “I believe that freedom in the workplace is worth fighting for and that every person and every organization can be excellent.” Julie Clow articulates the rules we follow today in our work force, the reasons they no longer work, and what we can do instead. The Work Revolution deconstructs the magic behind thriving, liberated organizations (such as Google) into clear principles that any individual, leader, and organization can adopt to create sustainable and engaging lives. - - Provides actionable changes anyone can make, regardless of where they work, to create a more sustainable work-life blend - - Details concrete ways to influence existing organizations to change - - Guides leaders to make tangible changes in their teams to enable greater autonomy and impact - - Outlines organizational culture principles that support and nurture high-performance and healthy environments, providing clear options for instituting cultural change based on specific organizational challenges - Rejecting productivity Band-Aids and quick fixes, The Work Revolution conceptualizes a completely new workplace that embraces the always-connected reality to create organizations in which high achievers can sustainably thrive.

Beyond Work-Family Balance - Rhona Rapoport - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Beyond Work-Family Balance - Rhona Rapoport - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Everyone who struggles to meet the demands of work and personal-life responsibilities knows how tough it is to do so. This bold new book shows that it is the deeply engrained separation of work and personal life that has limited our ability to deal effectively with the conflict between them. Beyond Work-Family Balance demonstrates why the image of "balance" is outmoded and why a new approach -- work-personal life integration -- offers greater promise for meaningful change. Providing many examples from action research projects in more than a dozen organizations of different kinds, the authors show how using their method of integrating rather than separating personal-life considerations from the workplace can achieve positive outcomes, not only for workers but also for the work. The method offers a way of looking deeply into the work culture to find inequitable and ineffective work practices that are so embedded and routine that no one thinks to question them -- they are just the way things get done. Once identified, these work practices can be changed to achieve what the authors call a Dual Agenda: a more equitable workplace where both men and women can achieve their full potential and a more effective workplace where the needs of the work, rather than gendered and outmoded assumptions, determine what gets done and how.
