Meet Emily and Paul: The parents of two small children, Emily is the newly advertised VP of marketing at a sizable organization while Paul works from your home or from clients' office buildings as an independent IT consultant. Their lives, like most of ours, are filled with a bewildering blizzard of messages, calls, yet more messages, meetings, tasks, proposals, and ideas. Just staying ahead of the storm has become a seemingly insurmountable process. In this e book, we travel inside Emily and Paul's brains as they attempt to sort the vast quantities of information they're offered, figure out how to prioritize it, plan it and take action on it. Luckily for Emily and Paul, they're in good hands: David Rock knows the way the brain works-and more specifically, how it works in a work setting. Rock shows how it's possible for Emily and Paul, and therefore the audience, not and then survive in the current overwhelming work environment but flourish in it-and still feel energized and completed by the end of the day. Your Brain At Work explores issues such as: - why our brains feel so taxed, and exactly how to maximize our mental resources - why it's so hard to focus, and exactly how to better manage distractions - how to maximize your potential for finding insights that can solve seemingly insurmountable problems - how to remain calm in any situation, so that you can make the best decisions possible - how to collaborate more effectively with others - why providing feedback is so hard, and how to make it easier - how to be more effective at changing other's behavior.
