The optimistic workplace : creating an environment that energizes everyone / by Murphy, Shawn(Consultant),author.(CARDINAL)802804;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Foreword / by Dorie Clark -- Acknowledgments -- Introduction -- The future of the workplace -- Destructive management -- The power of contagious emotions -- The downside of optimism : missteps and excess -- Values-based leadership -- It all starts with purpose -- The meaning makers -- We must change the way we work -- Human-centered leadership -- Next comes trust : creating community -- The cultivation of optimism -- Afterword -- The optimism planner -- One-on-one format -- Index.When it comes to work these days, we're expected to do more with less--but is this nose-to-the-grindstone philosophy the best way to run a business? Alarmingly low employee engagement numbers indicate otherwise. So, if pushing everyone harder isn't the path to productivity, what is? Supported by the latest research, this eye-opening book argues that our best work is the product of a positive environment. That's good news for you as a manager. While you can't personally transform the corporate culture, you can influence the workplace climate and create meaningful and lasting change. Advocating a steward model of management, The Optimistic Workplace reveals how to: explore personal and organizational purpose and align them for astonishing results, overcome resistance and skepticism, build camaraderie and deepen loyalty, increase intrinsic motivation, help your team find meaning in their work, identify goals collaboratively and track progress, and more. Examples from companies large and small demonstrate how this people-centric focus ignites employee potential, increases innovation, and catapults the organization to new levels of performance. Far from being a wish-upon-a-star discussion of workplace happiness, this book presents an array of surprisingly simple strategies as well as practical 30-, 60-, and 90-day plans designed to focus your actions and make employee optimism not just a worthy goal--but a real and measurable result.

Whirlwind / by Grosse, Kayla,author.;

But when a tornado strikes during Finley and Professor West's first chase together, something far more dangerous than the storm pulls them in. Boundaries shatter, and so do their reservations. Now, as they tear across Oklahoma with his famous storm chasing team, he's adamant: they crossed a line that should never have been crossed. He's her professor, and she's his student-nothing more. But with every storm they face, they're drawn deeper into a whirlwind that threatens to consume them both. Can they remain professional? Or will the storms consume them? --

Southern hotshot : a North Carolina highlands novel / by Peterson, Jessica,author.;
Lusting after the woman trying to steal my job is stupid. Sexting with her? That's a game-changing fumble. Emma Crawford became enemy number one the second she stepped foot on Blue Mountain Farm. She might think I'm just a dumb jock, but I know she's a stuck-up wine snob who believes she'd be a better exec than me. She can take my position over my dead body. But with her ridiculous curves and fearless smarts, she's becoming one giant distraction just when I need to prove my worth most. Lucky for me that I have a secret internet sext partner to blow off steam with. My nightly dirty chats with V scratch all the itches Emma gives me. Emma and V couldn't be more different-except it turns out they're the same person. Just when I thought this scenario was enough of a disaster, I'm falling for the co-worker I can't touch and can hardly stand. Even a hotshot player like me can see this is a game we're both gonna lose. --

"When veteran executive coach, professor, and ultraendurance champion Urs Koenig signed up to be a NATO peacekeeping commander and United Nations peacekeeper in his fifties, he thought he knew a thing or two about leadership.

Every day we navigate an office full of competing interests, clashing personalities, limited time and resources, and fragile egos. Sure, we share the same overarching goals as our colleagues, but we don't always agree on how to achieve them. We work differently. We rub each other the wrong way. We jockey for position.
