<p>If you want a 'normal' leadership development book please give this one a wide berth. If you've selected this book in the hope of finding a simple and cheery step-by-step guide to management improvement, I'm afraid you've picked up the wrong book altogether. I fear this book may upset you. It's a story about the stresses of modern life and all the things that can go wrong with work, family, relationships and customers. It's about working too hard and surviving each day in the hope that tomorrow may be better. It's terribly sad, especially when you find out it's about you. If you haven't got the stomach for a story that's about exhaustion, pressure, bad luck, regret, complacency, disillusionment and misery quickly return it to the shelf. Nobody will think badly of you. Look around you, nobody will even notice if you put it back right now. Thinking about it, you may of course already be brilliant. You probably don't work long hours or have work pressures and a demanding home life. I bet you're not permanently exhausted. You are probably the perfect manager, leader and parent. You may be an inspirational person who can't improve any further, in which case what on earth could you learn anyway? Whatever you decide, I know it will be the right choice. The themes of the book can be delivered in businesses. The messages are very simple - in fact so simple that they are frequently overlooked. The book translates some highbrow academic concepts into language that we can both understand and apply. Basically, I wanted to write something that would be idiotic to ignore. Textbooks are crammed full of theories and diagrams but I figured that life isn't a theory, it's very much a practical exercise - and we should be living it fully! The messages are suitable for people at all levels in all organisations. They are particularly relevant to leaders and those tuned into personal development. Workshops on 'The Art of Being Brilliant' aim to make a massive and long-term impact on business performance. They are also designed to be great fun.</p>

Work We Were Born To Do

Williams, Nick

Job Hunting & Careers

This book is about a Kabbalistic view of a human being. This means it takes into account the concept of the four macrocosmic worlds of Emanation, Creation, Formation and Action, which are manifest in the microcosm of the Divine, spiritual, psychological and physical levels within a person. The book's approach is through the metaphysical scheme of the Sefirotic Tree of Life and the extended Trees of Jacob's Ladder. Combining ancient, medieval and modern understandings of Adam, the archetype of humanity, the book works its way up, after introducing the way Kabbalistic principles work, through the body, psyche and spirit to the Divine Realm where Self-realisation is attained.
