Exploring some of the world's more remote regions can be an
exciting and rewarding experience, but should things go wrong,
would you know what to do? Do you possess the basics skills and,
above all the determination and will to survive? With a total of
150 expert survival tips, Survival Tips gives you the basic skills
to keep going in any situation, and reach safety. Tips range from
using an ice axe and sheltering from the wind, to finding fresh
water and building a protective shelter. Survival Tips is an
easy-to-use handbook of professional survival skills. It teaches
survival fundamentals for every scenario and every environment,
from the sub-zero landscape of the Arctic to the scorching suns of
the tropics. In clear and practical terms, the book explains how to
preserve life with minimal external aids and stay safe. Topics
covered include: how to make hunting weapons, identifying edible
plants, survival psychology, evasion techniques, celestial
navigation, surviving at sea, constructing shelters, hunting and
trapping techniques, making fire, improvised cooking vessels,
improvising weapons, endurance techniques and finding underground
water. The book also explores traditionally less well-covered but
equally essential aspects of survival such as natural remedies for
common diseases, rope handling and climbing methods and unarmed
combat. Illustrated with more than 100 black-and-white
illustrations, Survival Tips provides the reader with a single
source of invaluable survival information.
Managing Conflict at Work provides practical guidance on how to
prevent, contain and resolve conflict in the workplace. It
demonstrates how effective conflict management can have a powerful
impact on the way organisations channel their energies; encouraging
positive mindsets and building stronger and happier workforces.
Putting the cost of rising conflict in context with recessionary
times, it looks beyond individual cases to issues such as workforce
motivation and corporate responsibility. The authors provide a wide
range of practical techniques, tools and templates to support
individuals who need to facilitate the resolution of employee
disputes. Aimed not just at mediators and conflict practitioners,
but at staff managers and anyone who needs to deal with people
disputes; the book emphasises simple and practical ways for dealing
with conflict situations - both when potential disputes are first
emerging, and once a conflict has escalated into a formal
complaint. Also including international case studies, extensive
appendix of templates, tools and forms, including stakeholder
analysis, mediation in-take forms and reflective questioning
prompts, Managing Conflict at Work provides practical support to
ensure that your company prevents disputes and stays within the
law. The book is accompanied by an extensive range of ready-to-use
templates and case studies and is supported by a dedicated website,
providing information and downloads referred to in the book, as
well as videos and podcasts.
