Listening - The No. 1 People Skill

Building Personal Strength

Listening is probably the No. 1 people skill. People have important things to say to you, but if you don't really understand what they're trying to say, you won't "get it." Which means that you'll be saying and doing things without knowing what's going on. And people may think of you as a lousy listener. Whether you're interacting in your role as a spouse, parent, manager or friend, breakdowns and barriers to communication will keep you from being successful.

No Ego: How Leaders Can Cut the Cost of Drama, End Entitlement and Drive Big Results

Speaker: Cy Wakeman, M.S., CSP, President, Reality-Based Leadership

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

"Confucius Says." - Ancient Wisdom for Personal Strength in Our Time

Building Personal Strength

I have this memory from my youth of a black-and-white movie in which a little old Chinese man earnestly advises the hero. "Confucius says." I don't remember what the old man said. But it must have been wise, because the hero took it to heart and rose to the occasion. I remember wondering, "Who is this guy Confucius?" Did he have that name because the things he said were confusing?

Honoring Your Emotions - Nathaniel Branden and the Psychology of High Self-Esteem

Building Personal Strength

Have you ever read any of Nathaniel Branden's books? He's one of my top five favorite nonfiction authors, but for some reason he never achieved what we think of as "guru" status. Nevertheless, in my opinion no one has ever written with more wisdom about self-esteem. Self-esteem is a supremely important but controversial topic. Some writers on self-esteem are criticized for going too far - for discouraging negative feedback as potentially damaging to self-esteem.
