Chip Conley Boeken

A novel yet profound book which gets to the heart of making your emotions work for you. The equations should speak to the readers looking for hope, simplicity and happiness.

After fifteen years of rising to the pinnacle of the hospitality industry, Chip Conley's company was suddenly undercapitalized and overexposed in the post-dot.com, post-9/11 economy. For relief and inspiration, Conley, the CEO and founder of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, turned to psychologist Abraham Maslow's iconic Hierarchy of Needs. This book explores how Conley's company "the second largest boutique hotelier in the world" overcame the storm that hit the travel industry by applying Maslow's theory to what Conley identifies as the key Relationship Truths in business with Employees, Customers and Investors. Part memoir, part theory, and part application, the book tells of Joie de Vivre's remarkable transformation while providing real world examples from other companies and showing how readers can bring about similar changes in their work and personal lives. Conley explains how to understand the motivations of employees, customers, bosses, and investors, and use that understanding to foster better relationships and build an enduring and profitable corporate culture.

As more people live in good health for longer they are asking themselves what they should do with this new stage of life. In this marvellous book Chip Conley gives them a great answer - rewire don't retire. The Modern Elder is about combining a youthfulness in later life with the maturity and wisdom of experience Andrew Scott, co-author of The 100 Year Life

Co-founder and CEO of The Modern Elder Academy inspires readers to embrace midlife as a time of transformation and joy. The midlife crisis is the butt of so many jokes, but this long-derided life stage has an upside. What if we could reframe our thinking about the natural transition of midlife not as a crisis, but as a chrysalis--a time when something profound awakens in us, as we shed our skin, spread our wings, and pollinate our wisdom to the world? In Learning to Love Midlife, Chip Conley offers an alternative narrative to the way we commonly think of our 40s, 50s and 60s. Drawing on the latest social science research, inspiring stories, and timeless wisdom, he reveals 12 reasons why life gets better with age. They include: The relief of "my body doesn't define me:" We finally grow comfortable in our own skin Stepping off the treadmill: We redefine what a successful life looks like The "Great Midlife Edit:" We let go of our emotional baggage, mindsets, and obligations that no longer serve us Growing whole: We begin to feel a part of something bigger than ourselves No matter where you are in your midlife journey, this perspective‑shifting guide will inspire you to find joy, purpose and success in the years that lie ahead--and how those years can be your best ones yet.

Dnes by nikdo o současném světě neřekl, že "žijeme v klidných vodách". A nedá se to říci ani o době, která přijde. V dnešním věku nejistoty, v období nejhlubší ekonomické krize za posledních 75 let, má mnoho lidí pocit, že jsou uprostřed silné bouře zmítáni na malé loďce. Úspěšný obchodník Chip Conley však zjistil, že pomocí jednoduchých slovních rovnic můžeme získat odhodlání, vytrvalost a radost a stát se tak lepším a vysoce výkonným člověkem. Emocionální rovnice vám přinášejí jednoduchý, ale velmi účinný způsob, jak nejlépe využít svých emocí. Radost=Láska-Strach Inovace= Kreativita - Konformita Mohlo by se zdát, že kombinovat matematiku a emoce je proti našemu intuitivnímu chování, to však ty nejlepší myšlenky často bývají. Conleyho Emocionální rovnice fungují jako mantry, které nám v časech nejistoty pomáhají získat stabilitu, které nám pomáhají zaměřit se na věci, které můžeme změnit ("proměnné") a vše ostatní ("konstanty") ponechat stranou.
