Ask a Manager


Book Description

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

42 Rules of Employee Engagement (2nd Edition)


Book Description

'42Rules of Employee Engagement (2nd Edition)' was born out of need for dcorporations, leaders and managers to engage with employees. Depending on whose research you read, as much as three quarters of the global workforce were not engaged! How long could organizations continue down this path and thrive or survive? As overwhelming as these data seem, Susan Stamm began to recognize the solutions are simple and within our reach. Engagement begins and ends with leaders and their day to day actions. It's the little things that make the big difference: how much information the leaders shares, how they approach important conversations, how much control they need, and how well they listen. An organization can be a best place to work, yet have a team no one wants to work on. The reverse is also true and it is almost always related to the leader. A challenge is that leaders often have blind spots, especially leaders that are struggling with their teams. This book include stories that leaders can relate to and that might open the door for them to consider how their actions appear to others. The best way to use this book is as a conversation starter. Take it to lunch with colleagues and discuss a single rule and the implications for your teams. These rules are actionable; when there is a challenge, there is always a specific action or direction recommended for dealing with it. In addition to the actions offered at the end of each rule, Appendix C provides links to more than two full years of free employee engagement activities and tools. If you want better engagement at your company, you should pick up '42Rules of Employee Engagement (2nd Edition)' today.

God Won't Let Me Die


Book Description

Alaska’s Kenai court system is corrupt. I read that the hardest walk is the walk alone, but it also makes you the strongest. Be careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. (Ephesians 5:15–16) The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. (Proverbs 9:10) The fear of the Lord prolongs days: but the years of the wicked shall be shortened. (Proverbs 10:27) I’ve never feared death. I understand death. Death has no hold on me, and death is not the end. My blade is for the King. My heart belongs to Monica and my children. These are my friends. These are my family. These are all I have. These are all I need. Show me your circle of friends, and I will tell you who you really are. There is a person who lied about me. You know who you are, and you lied about the number of years you spent in prison. The public can access your record. You are a fake! Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; when he closes his lips, he is deemed intelligent. (Proverbs 17:28) Therefore, each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to your neighbor, for we are all members of one body. (Ephesians 4:25) Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. (Romans 8:33) This world is under demonic power, a massive psychosis that’s overpowering the minds of the enslaved. Think you are free? Think again. People are dependent on government and religion. They will also use climate change to endorse the one world order, and this is Satan’s (Morning Star) world. Humans are being gathered into flocks and slowly led to the slaughter. Wolf in sheep’s clothing? Have you ever thought that maybe you need the wolf to protect the sheep against the false shepherds who are leading them to slaughter to take the heads of those who do not bow and worship the one who gives power to the beast? The beheaded will reign with the King… Which of your churches belong to the 501(c)(3), and do you know what that means? It’s written that the number of the beast is the number of a man, 666, in the book of Revelation. And do you really understand what that is? Many of us already took it without knowing, and I’m not talking about the vaccine that they are trying to enforce on us through new laws and regulations. Now you can be forcefully removed from your home—man, woman or child—and quarantined against your own will if they even suspect you have a virus like COVID-19, and they’re allowed to use experimental drug testing on you. I believe that virus was fabricated in a lab to be used as some type of biological weapon to add to depopulating the world. By abuse of authority and power, our freedoms are slowly being taken away, and the Holocaust will repeat itself. Make America Great Again! (President Donald Trump) (Kid Rock, “We The People”) I believe the United States will soon no longer be united with these invaders coming into our country. It was strategically planned to destroy our country from within; and civil war will happen, most likely followed by martial law or vice versa, if we haven’t gone into a full-blown World War III by then. So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand). (Mathew 24:15)
