New York Timesi ja Wall Street Journali bestseller!Elu prožektorite all on karm, eriti veel segastel ning kiiretel aegadel. Rinda tuleb pista lõputute kriiside, tarbetu müra ja väsimatute „heasoovijatega“. Et sellest piinavast seisust vähegi väärikalt väljuda, tekib paljudel kange kiusatus raudse maski taha pageda. Raamatu „Julgege juhtida“ autor Brené Brown leiab, et meie keskel toimetab liiga palju neid, kes juhivad hirmu ning haiget tegemise pinnalt. Browni unistuseks on pärandada oma lastele maailm, mida juhivad julged. Kui aga ise oma käiseid üles ei kääri, pole põhjust teistelegi küsivalt otsa vaadata. Nii sündiski raamat, mis autorit tsiteerides räägib praktilises, jamavabas ja lihtsasti kasutatavas võtmes sellest, mis teeb ühest keskpärasest tegelasest särava liidri. Olgu lisatud, et juhina ei käsitle ta mitte üksnes neid, kelle visiitkaart seda kinnitab, vaid igaüht, kes võtab vastutust leida inimestes ja protsessides potentsiaali ning on valmis neid ka arendama. Raamatu selgrooks on sadadest organisatsioonidest saadud kogemus ning põhjalik, pea kahe aastakümne pikkune uurimistöö, mille keskseks küsimuseks oli: mis vajab senises juhtimisviisis muutmist, et olla keerukas ja kiiresti muutuvas keskkonnas edukas? Tippjuhtide vastustest selgus, et me vajame julgemaid juhte ja südikamat kultuuri. Uuringust koorus välja seegi, et tegelikult kogeb enamus julgeid juhte regulaarselt mitut tüüpi hirmu, mistõttu ei saa see olla veel takistuseks, et olla julge. Tegelikuks kurja juureks on hoopis viis, kuidas me hirmudele reageerime. Brown väidab, et kõigi nende aastate jooksul pole ta kordagi kohanud julget juhti, kes poleks pettumust, läbikukkumist ja südamevalu tundnud. Julguse kasvatamise põhioskuseks peab ta tahtmist ja võimet olla haavatav. Vaid siis on võimalik rakendada kolme ülejäänut – oskust oma väärtuste järgi elada, usaldada ning taas jalgele tõusta. Oskus olla julge ei saa kunagi olla suurem haavatavuse taluvusest. Just nende nelja õpitava, analüüsitava ning mõõdetava oskuse abil saab teha suuri tegusid. Märksa suuremaid kui hirmuga.

‘Johannesburg – Late on Friday night, Iqbal Survé phoned Mandla Mandela, the ailing statesman’s grandson: “Tell Madiba, Independent’s coming home,” he said. “If there’s one thing that will make him get better faster, it’s this,” the younger Mandela responded.’ This is how one of Independent Newspapers’ titles told its readers in April 2013 that it had been bought by Iqbal Survé’s Sekunjalo Independent Media Consortium for R2 billion. The journalists of South Africa’s biggest newspaper firm, which counted 'The Star', 'Cape Times' and 'The Mercury' among its titles, were optimistic that new, local ownership would mark an end to the callous management of its Irish overlords of the previous two decades. But the day after Nelson Mandela died, a storm engulfed the group when Survé fired 'Cape Times' editor Alide Dasnois amid accusations of disrespect towards Mandela although many pointed to a 'Cape Times' story about one of his companies as the real reason for his ire. In the dramatic days that followed, Independent’s newsrooms across the country were torn apart by suspicion, recriminations and what many of the journalists believed was a witch hunt to expel those not prepared to toady to Survé. Now Dasnois and Chris Whitfield, who was head of the Cape papers at the time of the ownership change, tell the inside story of the Survé reign.

South Africa is undeniably the continent's powerhouse. Local corporates like MTN, Standard Bank and Shoprite are African business giants; South Africa is the only African member of BRICS; and a South African heads the African Union Commission. Yet the country is often perceived by other African states as a bully that punches above its weight. Does South Africa have the moral standing, and economic and military capacity to call itself a superpower? In twenty years of reporting on Africa, Liesl Louw-Vaudran has travelled with South African heads of state and met business leaders from across Africa. In this book, she tries to answer accusations that South Africa behaves like a neocolonial power by examining key events – from Thabo Mbeki's reforms of the African Union to the disastrous peace-keeping mission in the Central African Republic in 2013 under President Jacob Zuma.

And if you read this Manual, then those patterns cannot be used against you anymore. So, it is good for you, but not good for people who want to use those patterns against you.

It is a sophisticated blueprint to navigate social/business relationships and negotiations, created after extensive experience in high-end corporate consulting, politics, diplomacy, mediation and litigation, backed by 1,000GB intelligence on human dynamics, including psychology, persuasion, theatre studies, linguistics, military history and more. This Manual synthesises and explains 11 neuro-hijacks (called «Gifts & Charms») that can hijack human relations. It comes with a bonus Pocket-Sized Swiss Army Knife of 20 powerful tools designed to manage these neuro-hijacks wisely and ethically. There is NO filler content. It's all no-BS practical formulas, frameworks, tips and tools, with case studies, examples and some references to elaborate certain points. Side effects of this Manual include: · an ability to rapidly uncover your own internal-wiring · improved mental health · terminator-like discernment to pick the subtext and motivations within social settings · an incredible power to move people (without coercion or dirty tricks) to do the right thing and become their best selves · renewed and unwavering focus to achieve your goals · special skills to resolve conflicts, settle office politics and improve relationships · greater psychological power and leverage in negotiations. This 3-Part Series is suitable for progressive leaders who manage people and are open to receive some no-BS guidance they can apply today in practice without a brain transplant, selling their soul to the devil or Nixon-levels of paranoid. This is How to Win Friends and Influence People on steroids for a 21st Century, no-BS world.
