Tap into the power that cool thinking generates—learn how going slower can actually help you get more done, faster. Before you check your wireless e-mail for the fourth time this hour, ask yourself, is this truly helping you get further ahead? Or is the pressure to address the immediate actually pushing you backwards? Cool Down takes a look at our innate and powerful addiction to high-speed activity, and shows how it is robbing us of the ability to think creatively and to connect with others (clients, colleagues, managers, and even family) just when we need to the most. Cool Down offers a provocative look at the value of slowing down in many aspects of our lives and demonstrates clearly that to get further ahead, faster, people do actually need to cool down. It's not about doing less; it's about achieving more by slowing down. Cool Down highlights the harmful effects of speed on productivity and reveals the value of slow in helping us to think clearly and prioritize more effectively. Cool Down is a fascinating look at the world of work, revealing how and why slow is the next tool of strategic advantage. Shows why and how to consciously step away from reactionism, pressure, and overload. Reveals the numerous ways in which cooling down will improve your potential and abilities--intellectually, emotionally, and creatively--making you more productive by going slower. Contains practical advice that will help you apply cool techniques to real-world situations: at work, on the road, and at home. Explains how to improve communication with your boss, your colleagues, and your family. Features lots of examples, practical tips, to-dos, and concepts that are memorable and easy to apply. Each end-of-chapter summary includes "Key Points to Take Away" and assessment questions to help you honestly observe and change your current habits. A complete approach to managing the pressures of life in a fast-paced world, Cool Down allows you to slow down so you can get ahead--and stay there.

Do you feel like you never have enough hours to complete everything on your to-do list and still have time for the things you care about? Have you ever wondered how highly successful people get things done without losing their sanity? Then you need to keep reading... “Until we can manage time, we can manage nothing else.” This famous quote rightly points out that every aspect of your life is determined by how you use your time. That’s because your life is made up of time. Time is your most precious commodity and it’s limited. Yet you may be easily losing time due to failure to manage it or by wasting it on unnecessary activities. On the other hand, you may be working hard and yet fail to achieve the desired results. This book will help you to master your time and conquer the results. Even for the most successful people, it’s a work in progress. Don’t feel bad if your time managing skills aren’t what they should be. The greatest names probably started off as you, but through self-discipline, they were able to succeed. Time management skills are the solution. They usually involve something simple, such as making a to-do list, or calculating how much time you waste on apps that are irrelevant to your work. Although they may seem too simple to work, you’ll be surprised at how much of a dent they can make. How to Plan Your Week, Stay Productive and Motivated the Entire Time Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn In This Book... How to Properly Structure Your Time for Maximum Productivity Coming Up with Methods to Make Your Chores Easier How to Start Early in Order to Get it All Done Having Goals and Routines to Save Time Coming Up with a System to Accomplish Regular Tasks Faster Helpful Ways to Get More Done in Less Time Much more... Time is running out! It is time to discover the true value of time and not put it to waste. Benjamin Franklin reminded us that time is money. However, in reality, it is more than that. It is essentially life itself. Every minute that is gone is equivalent to wasted moment of your life, too. Download This Book Today

"We cannot manage time. All we can do is learn how to use the time that we have, as well as we can", says Dr Mike Clayton, author of the all-new Time Management Pocketbook. Illustrated throughout, the book begins by explaining how to plan your time, how to balance the advantages of feeling in control against the necessity of remaining flexible, and how to adapt to changes. It then deals with ways of working that will make you more productive and looks at strategies for tackling one of the biggest problems you face: the challenge of 'too much'. A summary of the eight most popular time management systems in use comprises the penultimate section of the book. The author does admit, though: "I'm no fan of systems. Instead, I prefer broad principles, and a well-stocked box of tools to apply to different situations. To me, a system is a principle applied rigidly. And at some point, it won't apply. That's why I filled this Pocketbook with ideas to try; not just a single system." The book concludes by looking at how organisations can treat time as a strategic asset, systematically making better use of it for the greatest possible return

From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career. You’ll learn what to say when • coworkers push their work on you—then take credit for it • you accidentally trash-talk someone in an email then hit “reply all” • you’re being micromanaged—or not being managed at all • you catch a colleague in a lie • your boss seems unhappy with your work • your cubemate’s loud speakerphone is making you homicidal • you got drunk at the holiday party Praise for Ask a Manager “A must-read for anyone who works . . . [Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives. Ideal for anyone new to the job market or new to management, or anyone hoping to improve their work experience.”—Library Journal (starred review) “I am a huge fan of Alison Green’s Ask a Manager column. This book is even better. It teaches us how to deal with many of the most vexing big and little problems in our workplaces—and to do so with grace, confidence, and a sense of humor.”—Robert Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule and The Asshole Survival Guide “Ask a Manager is the ultimate playbook for navigating the traditional workforce in a diplomatic but firm way.”—Erin Lowry, author of Broke Millennial: Stop Scraping By and Get Your Financial Life Together

Better inventory management translates directly into better cash flow for businesses. However, in order to successfully manage inventory, businesses must strike a balance between customer demand and the amount of inventory they keep. Hands-On Inventory Management demonstrates principles key to developing an inventory management process, which will meet customer needs while keeping inventory costs at a level reasonable enough to produce a profit. The text explains basic inventory principles, calculations, and techniques using real-world examples. Different operational situations require different inventory planning and replenishment approaches; hence, this book emphasizes the prerequisites needed for success in a number of different industries. These prerequisites include top management support, a clear definition of responsibilities and alignment of goals throughout the company, as well as uncomplicated item identification. The author stresses the importance of accurate recordkeeping and delineates the most common causes of inaccurate records. He provides solutions to mitigate these causes and demonstrates how businesses can develop and administer a cycle counting program that will lead to a more well-managed physical inventory. Using a building-block approach, Hands-On Inventory Management gives a clear view of what steps must be taken to strike a profitable balance between customer demand and inventory.

The authors wrote this book when they couldn't find a short, comprehensive time management book to recommend to their executive coaching clients. It's based on the best tips from the top 20 time management books on Amazon as of September 2005. The book covers all the important aspects of time management in five sections (Focus, Plan, Organize, Take Action, Learn) and 25 chapters. Not a linear system, the book's layout allows readers to read from start to finish or zero in on specific areas for improvement. Writing is tight, with no fluff and many bullets and numbered steps so readers can get right to work on changing their time management habits. The Appendix includes an annotated list of the 20 source books. There's also a select list of books, many of them classics, which help people lead happier, more fulfilled lives. The last appendix shows how to buy books for much less. Published in December 2005, the book is now one of the top 5 time management books on Amazon!
