The Art of War
|
| MSRP: | $8.75 | | Your Price: | $7.59 | | SKU: | 3275847 |
|
| Description: The aphorisms that make up the philosophy of war and strategy by Sun Tzu have, several centuries later, become a must-read for young professionals in business. Though the text can be applied to the ruthless world of commerce, this translation by Thomas Cleary contextualizes the teachings in the Taoist tradition, enabling the work to transcend the simple co-opting of the philosophy for business strategies. By clarifying the philosophical origins, Cleary makes the text applicable not only to winning a literal war but also to almost any conflict-resolution situation, as well as to achieving goals in life. Though the text deals with many pragmatic issues in war, ranging in topics from Strategic Assessments, Armed Struggle, and The Use of Spies, much of the text is rooted in the idea that the greatest victory is won without having to do battle. At times, the material approaches these subjects in very practical terms, but the underlying message is that of surpassing unnecessary physical and emotional strain with deep understanding of the given situation. Because of the simplicity of the original text, there is much room for interpretation. The translation utilizes commentary from 11 ancient scholars elaborating on each aphorism with a more complete interpretation. |

|
| MSRP: | $14.36 | | Your Price: | $13.43 | | SKU: | 3155478 |

| Description: In this guide to workplace psychology, Tom Rath uses the metaphor of the bucket and a dipper as its central idea: for each encounter ask whether the other person filled your bucket, adding to its contents, or whether he or she dipped into it and took away--and vice versa. From this simple idea, the authors suggest creative and practical strategies for boosting the work experience to make it more positive. They offer an example of a positive interview, and they include a self-assessment to gauge how well one fills the buckets of others. Working as consultants and executives, the authors developed the innovative Strengths approach to business. Designed for the workplace, the positive lessons and strategies in How Full Is Your Bucket? can be transferred to everyday life. - Author: Rath, Tom
