Crash
Course in Creativity $24.50+p&p - Crash Course in
Creativity is an easy way to improve your creativity. But it is far from
a dry traditional course, as the authors say: ‘be prepared to learn, but
also be prepared to have fun’. Creativity is a business
skill – or rather a life skill – that cannot be simply learned. The only way
to enhance your creativity is through practice. This puts activity-based
learning at the core of the course. Creativity is also hugely important to
both individuals and organizations – yet at the same time it's hard to put
aside large chunks of time to work on personal development. For this reason,
Crash Course in Creativity is
oriented to getting up to speed as quickly of possible . After exploring the
key skills that will help you to nurture creativity, the course itself
consists of a programme of 150 exercises and techniques to help you to
develop your creativity either alone or as part of a group. Note
includes many of the techniques from Instant Creativity, Instant
Teamwork and Instant Brainpower.

DisOrganization
$32.99+p&p -Traditional organizational structures are failing in a world
of frantic change, instant communication and information overload. The truly effective
business of the future will have to be responsive and flexible, yet this seems
incompatible with the typical corporate hierarchy. Faced with a choice between management
and leadership, innovation and reaction, centralization and fragmentation, most have opted
for a weak compromise. DisOrganization offers an original alternative. Don't
compromise. Go for both extremes at once. Have inspirational leadership, and manage
the detail. React to your customers and innovate wildly. Break up your business
into small units and have mechanisms in place to provide superb centralized
communication. Read more about the book: click

Mining
the Internet - Arabic translation - $16.99+p&p -The Internet, and particularly the World Wide
Web, is a vast, confusing mix of incredibly useful information and garbage. The good news
about using the Internet for research is that almost anything you want to know is probably
out there somewhere. The bad news is that it is like searching for a particular item on a
noticeboard, which is planted with millions of other noticeboards in a field the size of
Turkey. This book takes the pain out of using the
Internet as an information source, whether you need to know what's on at your local
cinema, to find a telephone number of a company on the other side of the world, or to
produce in-depth research material for your academic studies. It provides simple,
practical ways to improve your ability to find the right information, with specific
application-focussed sections to chase up specific requirements.
Crash
Course in Managing People - Czech translation - $22.50+p&p -
The Crash Course in
Managing People is an easy way to improve your management skills fast.
But it is far from a dry traditional course, as the authors say: ‘be
prepared to learn, but also be prepared to have fun’. When you begin to look at
the nature of management a number of things become obvious. First is the
importance of communication – two-way flows of information are at the heart
of management – and second is the need to distinguish between two very
different management styles. These two styles are usually referred to as
leadership and management. Although this course is titled Crash Course in
Managing People, in fact it concentrates on leadership. Alongside pure
leadership, you will see themes developing around motivation, coaching and
interviewing. Other parts of the course concentrate on developing you as an
individual. After exploring the key
elements that make for effective management, the course itself consists of a
programme of 150 exercises and techniques to help you to develop your
managerial skills. As with the companion books Crash Course in Creativity and Crash Course in Personal Development, targeted reading ensures that the practical exercises are
backed up with expert knowledge. Contains exercises from
Instant Leadership, Instant Motivation and Instant
Interviewing and Instant Coaching, arranged into a structured course
with a reading programme to back up the material, plus online links to
expand your knowledge.
Capturing
Customers' Hearts - Chinese TRADITIONAL translation - $27.50+p&p
We all realize how important customers are.
We all know what will help build a good relationship with our customers.
Yet so often it is done badly. Unlike great products and low prices, great
customer service is hard to copy. In a fiercely competitive world,
differentiation is the name of the game. Capturing Customers' Hearts analyzes
companies where the product or the company itself generate a special
reaction in the customer, something much more than brand loyalty - true
affection. Building 12 components of charisma on the foundation of service
delivery, it uses examples of best and worst practice to pinpoint the
forces that will win new customers, keep them and capture their hearts.

normal responsibilities. Here is an ideal candidate for the Instant

effective questions to cover a wide range of requirements.

negotiation), then take steps to maximize the extent to which you are in
control. There's no magic formula that will guarantee success in every
