2.     An introduction to critical thinking and creativity

what do we mean by good thinking skills? Basically, it comes down to two things—critical thinking and creativity. Critical thinking is thinking clearly and rationally. It involves thinking  precisely and systematically, and following the rules of logic and scientific reasoning, among other things. As for creativity, it is a matter of coming up with new and useful ideas, generating alternative possibilities. This book is about these two sets of thinking skills, but at this point, you might ask, Which is more important, critical thinking or creativity? The short answer is that they are equally important. We need creativity to come up with ideas to solve problems, but we also need critical thinking to evaluate and improve these ideas. They complement each other, and we need both to survive and to prosper. In this book we shall discuss critical thinking first, and come back to creativity near the end. As we shall see, there is a lot more we can say systematically about critical thinking. A critical thinker is someone who is able to do the following:

 • Understand the logical connections between ideas.

• Formulate ideas succinctly and precisely.

• Identify, construct, and evaluate arguments.

• Evaluate the pros and cons of a decision.

• Evaluate the evidence for and against a hypothesis.

• Detect inconsistencies and common mistakes in reasoning.

• Analyze problems systematically.

• Identify the relevance and importance of ideas.

• Justify one's beliefs and values.

• Reflect and evaluate one's thinking skills.

3.       Anger Management For Dummies

Anger Management For Dummies is not one of those 12-step books where you have to read (and follow the advice) of Step 1 before you can proceed to Step 2, and so on. It’s a resource book  containing all the information I have at my disposal after four decades of combined clinical practice and scientific research on anger management. You don’t have to start with Chapter 1 and read straight through to the end of the book. You can look at the Table of Contents, find something that interests you, and start there. You may want to focus on the area in which you’re having the most trouble controlling your temper — at work, for example. Or you may want to head straight for a chap- ter on managing stress (one of the most common causes of anger). I’m not even going to suggest that you read the whole book — that’s up to you. Be like my bassett hounds and go where your nose (or in this case, your eyes!) lead you. Trust me, you’ll get where you need to be.

6.       Building Team Power: How to Unleash the Collaborative Genius of Teams

Building Team Power is a hands-on, how-to book. It is a roll-up-your-sleeves-and-get-your-hands-dirty book. It is applications oriented all the way. Don’t look for complex psychological, sociological or academic group theory models here. You won’t find any. Building Team Power extends and expands the reach of my well-received Mining Group Gold book. This one digs into the crucial behaviors you need to understand and practice to be a collaborative leader. It takes you into the “how-tos” for building collaborative partnerships and facilitating teamwork within your own work group, across work groups, or in task forces, committees, problem-solving teams, executive councils, and the like. It is one thing to say, “We need more and better collaboration around here;” it is another thing to do it. This book fills a void because it shows you how to do it in terms you can understand, with skills you can actually put into practice! Skill improvement in building and facilitating collaborative partnerships and teamwork is what this book teaches. After reading Building Team Power, you will, I hope, pick out a few collaborative leadership actions and get started by saying: “Hey, I can give these a try because I understand what I am supposed to do. Kayser’s book taught me something.” This e-book contains 305 pages

12.  Developing Successful Leadership

Research has shown that school leadership is second only to classroom teaching in its effect on pupil learning. As the demands on management teams become ever more complex, this volume offers a fresh and expansive view on the challenges to be met in developing a leadership career. With contributions from some of the most accomplished commentators on school leadership and management from around the world, this book moves away from the simple ‘how to’ of becoming a principal, focusing instead on the wider issues of becoming a successful leader. The central aim has been to assemble powerful statements from international authorities that encapsulate leading-edge thinking on a group of interconnected themes based on the notion of developing successful leadership in, and beyond, schools. In so doing the text examines strategies for existing leaders developing their full capacity as well as enhancing the skills of those new to, or aspiring to, a leadership role. The chapters contributed by a carefully selected group of leading educationalists present insights on a number of central themes, including: developing new skill sets in leadership, the ethical and moral dimensions of leading an organisation, Leadership for instructional and pedagogical success, developing leadership capacity and capability through strategic activity. Rather than taking a technical approach of how to undertake the managerial or administrative tasks, the authors seek instead to develop critical leadership perspectives and skills, with chapters on vitally important topics such as strategies for maximizing the potential of the leadership team as a whole. They draw not only upon the literature in the field of educational leadership but also a wider literature in the field of business and management. This diversity of perspective ensures this book’s appeal to a broad international readership. This e-book contains 220 pages

Leading neuroscientist Samuel Barondes shares scientific frameworks and tools for improving your intuitions about people, and sizing them up more consciously, systematically, and successfully. He shows how to use the latest research about personality and character to get along better, choose great friends, decide whom to trust, and avoid narcissists and sociopaths.

 Kirkus Reviews

A succinct look at personality psychology.

  As a psychiatrist and neuroscientist at the University of California, Barondes (Molecules and Mental Illness, 2007, etc.) has spent years studying human behavior, and this book reflects his systematic, scientific approach for personality assessment. The average person isn’t likely to have time to research a difficult boss or potential love interest, but the author supplements intuition with a useful cornerstone for gauging human behavior: a table of the “Big Five” personality traits, among them Extraversion vs. Introversion and Agreeableness vs. Antagonism. To learn how to apply the Big Five, Barondes supplies a link for a professional online personality test, in addition to a basic introduction of troubling personality patterns—e.g., narcissism and compulsiveness. While genetics may play a heavy hand in influencing personality, Barondes writes, it’s awareness of a person’s background, character and life story that is paramount in unearthing reasons for adult behavior. Readers might like to see the author weave more everyday examples into the text—his exercise in fostering compassion by imagining an adult as a 10-year-old child is a gem—but there is plenty here to ponder. Those looking for traditional “self-help” advice won’t find it here, but this book clearly lays the groundwork for deeper human interaction and better life relationships.

This book will help you increase your skills as a public speaker. Over the course of the next 20 lessons, you will learn how to be a good listener, analyze your audience, do research, organize your thoughts and notes, prepare an outline, and craft a memorable speech. You will also learn how to use stage fright to your advantage, how to control the audience’s responses, how to use visual aids, how to use language, and much more! Use the lined pages in the back of the book to take important notes as you make your way through the lessons. Each lesson also presents exercises that will help you hone what you’ve learned, one step at a time. The final lesson presents the texts of several famous speeches so that you can read for yourself how to craft a great speech. All types of speeches are covered: speeches to persuade, to demonstrate, to inform, and to honor special occasions. With this book, some practice, and just 20 minutes a day, you can become a skillful public speaker! This  e-book contains 90 pages

I consider Leadership Challenge by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner to be the best research-based book ever written in the field of leadership. What I love about this book is that it is actually written for its readers Let’s face it–very few readers of business books are CEO’s of multi-billion corporations. Yet many business books follow the same over-used formula–interviewing CEOs–talking about what they are doing so well–and suggesting that you do the same thing. Leadership Challenge is based upon learnings from leaders at all levels–and shows how “regular people” can make a huge, positive difference in their organizations. It is written in a way that can help executives, mid-managers, first-line supervisors, project leaders–and even individual contributors–better understand how they can lead–and be able to immediately apply what they have learned in their work.  My favorite movie is The Wizard of Oz. Three of the movie’s main characters are seekers: the scarecrow–who is searching for a brain–or wisdom, the tin man–who is searching for a heart–or compassion, and the lion–who is searching for the nerve–or courage. Leadership Challenge helps its readers, who are also seekers, find all three. It shows how real leaders can demonstrate the wisdom–needed to build a vision and show the way, the courage–needed to the challenge the system and do what is right, and the compassion–needed to care for and inspire others. Although my Ph.D. is in Organizational Behavior, my undergraduate background is in mathematics. I respect people who gather real facts and don’t just “shoot from the hip.” Jim and Barry have developed the “Leadership Practices Inventory”–which is possibly the world’s most widely-respected tool for 360° leadership feedback. They have thoroughly reviewed input from tens of thousands of respondents and used this data to form sound conclusions about what works–and what doesn’t work–in terms of leadership behavior.

My recent book, What Got You Here Won’t Get You There, talks about why it can be so challenging for successful people to make the changes that they need to “go to the next level.” Jim and Barry have not fallen into the classic “successful author’s trap.” Given the tremendous success of the first edition of Leadership Challenge, they could have easily thought, “Why change this? It is a huge winner!” Instead they have put in countless hours to make each new edition of this classic better than the previous editions. They have worked to incorporate both what they have learned, through their ongoing research–and what they have observed, through their observations of the changing world of work–to make this edition the best–and most relevant–for today’s readers. My final comment for you as a reader: don’t just learn from this book–do something with what you learn. This is a practical guide that can help you lead in a way that makes your organization a better place. Take advantage of this opportunity to make a positive difference in your own life–and in the lives of the people that you lead. This e-book contains 416 pages.

Pessimists believe that bad events are their fault, will last a long time, and undermine everything. They feel helpless and may sink into depression, which is epidemic today, especially among youths. Optimists, on the other hand, believe that defeat is a temporary setback or a challenge–it doesn’t knock them down. “Pessimism is escapable,” asserts Seligman, by learning a new set of cognitive skills that will enable you to take charge, resist depression, and make yourself feel better and accomplish more. About two-thirds of this book is a psychological discussion of pessimism, optimism, learned helplessness (giving up because you feel unable to change things), explanatory style (how you habitually explain to yourself why events happen), and depression, and how these affect success, health, and quality of life. Seligman supports his points with animal research and human cases. He includes tests for you and your child–whose achievement may be related more to his or her level of optimism/pessimism than ability. The final chapters teach the skills of changing from pessimism to optimism, with worksheet pages to guide you and your child.
