Career derailment, found at all organizational levels in the
workplace, is under-documented. Most books examining how careers go
off track deal with abstract concepts and focus only on top
executives. This book defines nearly 100 potentially career-ending
pitfalls, illustrated with real-world examples, and offers specific
advice to employees at all levels in business, nonprofit, military,
government and other organizations. Topics include the consequences
of power and pleasing, the illusion of immunity, meeting behavior,
corrective feedback, ineffective image, nonverbal behavior,
self-serving analysis and the perception of management as a
science. Perspectives are provided on avoiding the indirect hazards
of working with superiors or subordinates who may be on the path to
derailment.
When organizational leaders reflect on who has most impacted their
lives, their careers, and their sense of purpose, chances are
significant that they will name a humanistic consultant. The
humanistic approach to working with individuals and organizations
spans leadership development, executive coaching, organization
development practice, organizational behavior teaching, and efforts
to transform and revitalize entire organizational systems. Its
tools and techniques are borrowed from clinical psychology,
counselling, therapeutic approaches, and business change
strategies. The historical roots of humanistic consulting practice,
its cross-functional applications, and its powerful potential have,
for too long, gone unexamined. No other book traces the influence
of therapeutic models, existential philosophy and humanistic values
on organizational consultation, coaching, and leadership
development. Uniquely, it moves beyond a historical narrative and
offers perspective, insights, and ideas for practitioners,
managers, researchers and students.
