| |  | No BS Time Management for Entrepreneurs Dan Kennedy Book Description Don't Count Time, Make Time Count! Tick ... tick ... tick ... can't find enough time? Find out how to use it far more wisely by the man who successfully run multiple business ventures simultaneously. Dan Kennedy has been called the "Professor of Harsh Reality" because he doesn't deal in glib, pabulum solutions and eye-rolling cliches you've heard incessantly on time management. He takes on the world of cell phones, PDAs, faxes, e-mails, and every other communication device that pervade our lives, suggesting when to tap it, and when to give it the heave-ho. This entrepreneur / consultant / author / speaker has a whirlwind business life, yet manages to fit everything in using a handful of home-brewed time management tools he swears by. He shows how to maximize your time with a fresh take on the mantra that "time is money." It's all about using disciplined productivity strategies Kennedy has devised over 30 years of managing highly-profitable businesses with only minimal help. | |  | The Hostage at the Table: How Leaders can overcome conflict, influence others and raise performance Joe W. Forehand and George Kohlrieser Customer Review "If a dangerous criminal was demanding a one-way ticket to Venezuela as he threatened to blow your brains out, the person you would most want to see coming onto the scene is author George Kohlrieser. A psychologist and veteran hostage negotiator who has diffused explosive situations around the globe, Kohlrieser now applies his knowledge, motivational insights and techniques to the business world. He contends that conflict resolution is not difficult if you understand how human self-esteem operates. The basic negotiating principles he presents may have been noted in other psychology and business management texts, but Kohlrieser's credibility and unique approach give his ideas an added kick. For example, he uses real-life hostage negotiations to illustrate his points. We think you'll find that this whole package is definitely a nonnegotiable demand." | |  | The Dynamics of Conflict Resolution Bernard Mayer Customer Review "In Mayer′s book, the author presents a particularly unique perspective on the resolution of disputes and the prevention of conflict." | |  | The Handbook of Conflict Resolution Morton Deutsch Product Review
"an excellent introduction to psychological theories of conflict and its resolution . . . " (Analysis of Social Issues and Public Policies, Vo. 1, No. 1 2007) Customer Review "This handbook is essential reading for anyone interested in issues related to 'keeping the peace'. My favourite is a contribution by Fay Ballard, who delineates zones of conflict within domestic spheres in Northern Belfast." | |  | How to Deal with Difficult People Ursula Markham Synopsis
This guide is designed to help the reader understand and handle over-aggressive, negative, ineffectual or generally disagreeable people who seem to enjoy making a person's life difficult. The book offers advice on recognizing and out-manoeuvring the smoothest talkers, sharpest tongues and biggest fault-finders. It contains workable suggestions for confronting the verbal bully, coping with criticism, negotiating and compromising, or taking on a position of authority so that one gets the most from subordinates. The book teaches the reader to: understand the three main personality types - aggressive, submissive and assertive; handle potential conflict situations; communicate effectively; learning to say no; deal with complaints; motivate others and building a sense of teamwork; and reduce stress levels. Ursula Markham is the author of "Hypnothink". | |
