"The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same
level of thinking we were at when we created them." " -- Albert
Einstein--" Modern business leaders are just too aware of how much
the world has changed in the last decades and continues to do so.
It is little wonder then that even the best of us can feel
overwhelmed by the many demands we now face in our working and
private lives. Summarizing the knowledge and experiences of three
experts in the field, and offering practical insights from
specialists around the world, this book offers a new approach to
leadership and personal development by focussing on the links
between these two areas. The good old times of planning one's
development in a linear, step-by-step fashion over a lifetime are
over. While recognising that there are different learning styles
and personality types, the authors present a more proactive,
flexible and emergent approach to your development. Topics such as
sustainability, complexity and creativity are considered key issues
that should play a role in not only developing a positive, future
society, but also in refining the current and future you. This
modern approach will give you a cutting-edge advantage in our fast
changing world. Since the three author whole heartedly agree with
Einstein's maxim, this book should be considered an attempt to
equip you with new levels of thinking and new skill sets to make
you more successful at leading and developing yourself and others
in a variety of contexts. With structured activities and proven
techniques from people who have successfully applied the lessons
found in this book, Leadership and Personal Development, A toolbox
for the 21 century professional, you will be armed with an
effective approach to development.

maturity throughout life, and how leadership culture forms and

Effective Listening Second Edition Mike Green Developing Dialogue
Skills For the Counseling Interview Improve your dialogue skills by
learning how to: Let your counselee know that you heard him.
Establish trust with your counselee. Understand his body language
and affect. Ask "open" questions. Show your empathy and
understanding. Keep silent at the right times. Use appropriate
self-disclosure. Provide feedback and confirmation. Why a book on
listening? Isn't listening something we all do, all day long, all
of our lives? Yes, of course it is. But how well do we do it? Is
our listening really effective? As most of us can testify, there is
often a big difference between what one person says and what
another person hears Often, in normal conversation there is a lot
more going on than we realize For the conversation to be meaningful
there are many variables to be considered that will have a profound
effect on the quality of that conversation. Listed below are a few
of the variables to be considered during any discussion. 1. What I
actually said. 2. What I really meant to say. 3. What I tried to
avoid saying. 4. What you heard. 5. What you didn't hear. 6. What
you thought you heard. 7. What you thought I meant. 8. What you
said in response to all of the above. 9. What I then heard you say.
10. What I thought you meant. And so on. Added to all of these
variables are things like: my mood or attitude, your mood or
attitude, the type of relationship (business, personal, formal,
informal, superficial or intimate), the time of day, the location,
the purpose of the conversation, and a host of other less obvious
components. Considering all of this, one can quickly see that the
ability to listeneffectively is important in any conversation. But
it is crucial to counseling conversation. Effective Listening will
enable you to take your counseling to the next level.
