Showing results for "Behavior Management" in Biological Sciences

Linda Kohanov, author of the bestselling The Tao of Equus, pioneered a deep understanding of "the way of the horse," including the extraordinary nonverbal communication of skilled riders and the collaborative power of "herding cultures" through the centuries. She has adapted this profound, time-tested approach to modern life and the organizations in which top-down management hierarchies have become obsolete.

As human beings, we are fascinated by what makes us tick. We know that nature gave us certain biological appetites to ensure our survival, among those the need for water, food, sex, and love, but meeting these alone is not enough to ensure happiness. Scientists, and now managers, are realizing that people have a biological need to experience social rewards like praise, the thrill of innovation, and the satisfaction of acquiring new skills.

Dieses unterhaltsame und praxisnahe Buch macht wissenschaftlich nachvollziehbar, warum wir Erfolg haben und woran wir oft scheitern. Fabritius und Hagemann kombinieren Erkenntnisse der Hirnforschung mit Business-Expertise, um mehr Leistung, Führungsstärke, Teamgeist und Zufriedenheit freizuschalten. Sie zeigen, wie kognitive Fähigkeiten gezielt eingesetzt werden können, um fokussierter, effizienter, kollegialer und letztlich glücklicher zu arbeiten.

Drawing on insights from across the social, behavioral, and natural sciences, Michelle Baddeley explores contexts in which behavior is driven by the herd. She analyzes the rational vs nonrational and cognitive vs emotional forces involved, and she investigates why herding only sometimes works out well. With new perspectives on followers, leaders, and the pros and cons of herd behavior, Baddeley shines vivid light on human behavior in the context of our ever-more-connected world.
