Organisationen und Führungskräfte sind erfolgreicher, wenn Mitarbeiter Verbindung, Sinnhaftigkeit und Glück erfahren. Es gibt eine Krise in der Wirtschaft: Während 77 Prozent der Führungskräfte glauben, ihre Mitarbeiter ausreichend zu motivieren, sagt 88 Prozent dieser Mitarbeiter, dass ihnen die Aufmerksamkeit von oben fehlt. In Wie Führungskräfte denken präsentiert Rasmus Hougaard eine Lösung: ein effektives Führungsmodell, mit dem Führungskräfte echte Verbindungen schaffen und eine Kultur fördern können, in der intrinsische Motivation, Autonomie, Kreativität und Mitgefühl im Vordergrund stehen. Um dies zu erreichen, sind Führungskräfte erforderlich, die drei Kernqualitäten entwickeln: Achtsamkeit, Selbstlosigkeit und Mitgefühl. Wie Führungskräfte denken behandelt modernes Leadership und enthält Praxisbeispiele aus Unternehmen wie Marriott, McKinsey und LinkedIn.

Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman offers a general audience access to over six decades of insight and expertise from a Nobel Laureate in an accessible and interesting way. Kahneman's work focuses largely on the problem of how we think, and warns of the dangers of trusting to intuition - which springs from "fast" but broad and emotional thinking - rather than engaging in the slower, harder, but surer thinking that stems from logical, deliberate decision-making. Written in a lively style that engages readers in the experiments for which Kahneman won the Nobel, Thinking, Fast and Slow's real triumph is to force us to think about our own thinking.

Most leaders think they're effective at motivating their employees, but studies show that employees are more disengaged and uninspired than ever. The solution lies in looking within-- into the mind of the leader. Hougaard and Carter identify three qualities as being foundational for leaders today: mindfulness, selflessness, and compassion. Discover how every leader can learn to embody what makes for great leadership in today's challenging organizational environment. -- adapted from publisher info

In Focus, Psychologist and journalist Daniel Goleman, author of the #1 international bestseller Emotional Intelligence, offers a groundbreaking look at today’s scarcest resource and the secret to high performance and fulfillment: attention. Combining cutting-edge research with practical findings, Focus delves into the science of attention in all its varieties, presenting a long overdue discussion of this little-noticed and under-rated mental asset. In an era of unstoppable distractions, Goleman persuasively argues that now more than ever we must learn to sharpen focus if we are to survive in a complex world. Goleman boils down attention research into a threesome: inner, other, and outer focus. Drawing on rich case studies from fields as diverse as competitive sports, education, the arts, and business, he shows why high-achievers need all three kinds of focus, and explains how those who rely on Smart Practices—mindfulness meditation, focused preparation and recovery, positive emotions and connections, and mental “prosthetics” that help them improve habits, add new skills, and sustain greatness—excel while others do not.
