When Time-Out, Doesn't Work

This book will appeal to parents who have felt frustrated, helpless, or angry when traditional parenting tools didn't work. The Time-In process is an overall approach that teaches children to be competent, to think, and to succeed using four tools-ask, act, attend, and amend. Parents can use Time-In when they want children to listen and think (ask), change behaviour (act), pay attention to the needs of others (attend), or to right a wrong they have done (amend).

Self-Directed Learning Strategies for Career Development

Talent, knowledge, and hard work do not guarantee success in a managerial or professional career. Competent, knowledgeable, and hardworking people often have less impact and achieve less career success than they deserve. Sometimes the missing ingredient for success is a set of fundamental skills, skills that give talent, knowledge, and hard work leverage and visibility. The body of knowledge to be mastered in a technical or professional education leaves little or no time for the acquisition of skills that cut across disciplinary boundaries. Used in all fields, these generic skills are vital to the careers of many managers and professionals. The manager and professional who can write efficiently and well; who is an effective and willing public speaker; who can interview effectively; who can and does relate effectively with others; who is personally able to use a computer; and who can tap into the burgeoning volume of information with some precision, has greater probability of success than one who cannot or does not. The Management Skills Builder is intended to increase awareness of the need for these skills among intelligent and dedicated professionals and to suggest ideas about how these skills may be acquired, further developed, and honed. Strategies for the development of each skill are provided, along with a resource list that includes recommended books, videos, and other learning aids.

An Easier Way to Get Your Most Important Things Done--Now!

What do you do when your life feels as busy as a three-ring circus?

Juggling Elephants tells a simple but profound story about one man with a universal problem. Mark has too much to do, too many priorities, too much stress, and too little time.

As he struggles to balance his many responsibilities without cracking under the pressure, Mark takes a break to attend the circus with his family. There he has a surprising conversation with a wise ringmaster. He leaves with a simple but powerful lesson: Trying to get everything done is like juggling elephants -- impossible.

So Mark begins to think about his work, family, and personal life the way a ringmaster thinks about the many acts in a three-ring circus. He discovers that managing his various acts can be fun and easy once he changes his attitude and follows his new friend's ongoing guidance. Mark soon realizes:

 * If you keep trying to juggle elephants, no one, including you, will be thrilled with your performance.
 * A ringmaster cannot be in all three rings at once.
 * The key to the success of a circus is having quality acts in all three rings.
 * Intermission is an essential part of any good circus.

Juggling Elephants is a wonderfully lighthearted guide for everyone who feels like they're about to be squashed. It will help you better focus your time and energy, so you'll be able to enjoy more of the things that are important to you. Above all, it will teach you how to run your circus, instead of letting the circus run you.

Transforming Parent-Child Relationships from Reaction and Struggle to Freedom, Power and Joy

Every parent would happily give up ever scolding, punishing or threatening if she only knew how to ensure that her toddler/child/teen would thrive and act responsibly without such painful measures. Raising Our Children, Raising Ourselves is the answer to this universal wish. It is not about gentle ways to control a child, but about a way of being and of understanding a child so she/he can be the best of herself, not because she fears you or seeks your approval but because she wants to, of her own free will. Aldort's guidance takes the struggle out of parenting. The book is full of real life stories, often leaving the reader moved to tears or laughter and relieved to discover that there is a kinder way. The SALVE communication formula has been praised for providing a hybrid of The Work of Byron Katie and Nonviolent Communication. It gives parents the tools to move beyond their initial unproductive reaction, to a response that is connecting and empowering to the child and to themselves.
