Download Whale Done!: The Power of Positive Relationships AudioBook Free
What do your people at work and your partner and kids at home have in common with a five-ton killer whale? Probably much more than you think, according to top business specialist and mega-bestselling publisher Ken Blanchard and his coauthors from SeaWorld. With this moving and inspirational new publication, Blanchard explains that both whales and folks perform better when you highlight the positive. He shows how using the techniques of animal instructors -- specifically those in charge of the killer whales of SeaWorld -- can supercharge your performance at work with home.
When gruff business supervisor and family man Wes Kingsley visited SeaWorld, he marveled at the power of the instructors to get these huge killer whales, being among the most feared predators in the ocean, to perform amazing acrobatic leaps and dives. Later, talking to the chief trainer, he discovered their techniques of creating trust, accentuating the positive, and redirecting negative tendencies -- all of which make these amazing shows possible. Kingsley took a hard look at his own often accusatory management style and accepted how some of his shortcomings as a supervisor, spouse, and father actually diminish trust and destruction relationships. He started to start to see the difference between "GOTcha" (finding and catching people doing things incorrect) and "Whale Done!" (catching people doing things right).
In Whale Done!, Ken Blanchard shows how to make accentuating the positive and redirecting the negative the best tools to increase output, instead of creating situations that demoralize people. These techniques are incredibly easy to master and can be applied similarly well at home, allowing readers to become better parents plus more determined spouses in their more content and more lucrative personal lives.
