Groundbreaking research to transform your understanding of mindset. What precisely is a mindset? How do mindsets come into being? What is the relationship between mindsets, paradigms, and worldviews? What is an awareness-based and trauma-informed psychology of mindset? Join Ash Buchanan on a learning journey to explore these questions and more in The Nature of Mindset. Part one offers you a comprehensive field guide to the field of mindset, including an in-depth inquiry into its current communities, its origins and history, and also into a range of voices that speak to the emerging future for mindset psychology and practice. Part two offers you a comprehensive psychology of mindset that is also a psychology of how people and systems change, transform, and heal. This comprehensive psychology includes a theory of how mindset comes into being, the forms mindset can take in our lives and in the life of society, the functions mindset can serve, and the natural laws that underlie how mindset can change and transform into new forms and functions that serve better. This comprehensive psychology is also grounded in a theory of how mind, mindset, mindfulness, and presencing function together as an embodied and relational system of consciousness. The Nature of Mindset is a must-read for anyone who wants to deepen their understanding of mindset, and support the possibility of new ways of seeing, being, and acting in themselves and society as a whole.

Long description: This study contributes to the question how managers could be qualified to increase their ability to activate resources and develop sense of coherence in challenging transcultural work contexts. Thereby it refers to developing intercultural competence and well-being in transcultural management settings by presenting a salutogenetic-oriented consultancy model: "Mental health in transcultural organisations". This model is based on a systemic and salutogenetic, transcultural and transformative fundament and includes counselling, a managerial training series and a team mentoring approach, as well as facilitator training.

Success in negotiation is not a matter of chance, but the result of careful planning and specialized skills. Some of these skills are inborn, others need to be learnt. In this book the social scientist and economist Professor Dr. Raymond Saner draws on his long years of experience as a negotiation adviser, teacher, trainer, researcher and university lecturer to show that two-thirds of negotiation practice is learnable. Yet very few people are specifically trained in this everyday task.

This book offers far-reaching insights into perceptions of conflict in South Africa. Claude-Hélène Mayer’s approach is remarkable, because she imparts the recollections of numerous people from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds. The author captures the essence of about one-hundred interviews reflecting disparate attitudes towards social changes in the post-apartheid Republic of South Africa. Unexpected statements – for example, with respect to the continued existence of internalized apartheid – are carefully analyzed and hermeneutically understood. At the beginning of the research, presumptions might have raised expectations for the similarity between the narrative interviews. However, it becomes clear during the reading of this work that each interview was itself unique and each created a unique situation between the interviewer and the interviewee, inviting the reader to listen again and again to the spoken and analyzed words. The thorough, months-long field stays, from 1999 until 2004, emphasize the researcher’s exhaustive effort better to understand the perspective of the interviewees. In addition to the book's research-related merits, its data can increase the cultural competence of those readers who are interested in information on specific predominant-cultural standards in present day South Africa. Readers can more fully appreciate how the people in South Africa live a special, dynamic form of their unmatched “unity in diversity.”
