Book Description
If know-how is knowing what to do to make change happen, do-how is doing what needs to be done - there's a big difference. Everybody knows that change can be difficult. Sometimes you feel yourself stuck going round in circles as you revisit the same challenges again and again. But there is a way to change things and it doesn't have to be complicated. In this highly practical book, Dave Corbet and Ian Roberts show just how quickly you can move forward once you recognize that the key to change is not your know-how - understanding how to make change happen in theory - but your do-how - the shifts in behavior that will deliver the changes you want, whether this be at home or work. Dispensing with academic jargon, and illustrated throughout with real-life examples and case studies, the book draws together diverse aspects of change into one simple, tried-and-tested roadmap, allowing you to develop the do-how you need to achieve breakthrough change: change that sticks, and delivers results. - Transform the culture of your organization - Proactively manage an underperforming team member - Reignite and develop your career - Improve relationships with partners or children - Learn to say no

Know Can Do!
Author: Ken Blanchard
Publisher: Berrett-Koehler Publishers
ISBN: 1609944291
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 112
Book Description
Attempting to better themselves—learn new skills, break bad habits, realize their potential—people read books, attend seminars, take training courses. And companies pitch in too, spending billions of dollars every year on professional development programs aimed at helping their employees become more effective. But in spite of what people sincerely believe are their best efforts, all too often their behavior doesn’t change. The fact that it seems to be so hard to make new learning stick is an endless source of frustration for both individuals and organizations. For years Ken Blanchard has been troubled by the gap between what people know—all the good advice they’ve digested intellectually—and what they actually do. In this new book he and his coauthors, Paul J. Meyer and Dick Ruhe, use the fable format Blanchard made famous to lay out a straightforward method for learning more, learning better, and making sure you actually use what you learn. This engaging story identifies three key reasons people don’t make the leap from knowing to doing and then moves on to the solution. It teaches you how to avoid information overload by learning “less more, not more less.” You’ll find out how to adjust your brain’s filtering system to learn many, many times more than ever before, ignite your creativity and resourcefulness with Green Light Thinking, master what you’ve learned using spaced repetition, and more. At last, an answer to the question, “Why don’t I do what I know I should do?” Read this book and you will!

How Do You Know?
Author: Russell Hardin
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691137552
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
How do ordinary people come to know or believe what they do? You might think I am acting irrationally--against my interest or my purpose--until you realize that what you know and what I know differ significantly. My actions, given my knowledge, might make eminently good sense. Of course, this pushes our problem back one stage to assess why someone knows or believes what they do. That is the focus of this book. Russell Hardin supposes that people are not usually going to act knowingly against their interests or other purposes. To try to understand how they have come to their knowledge or beliefs is therefore to be charitable in assessing their rationality. Hardin insists on such a charitable stance in the effort to understand others and their sometimes objectively perverse actions. -- Publisher details.

I Know What to Do, I Just Don't Do It

Publisher: BalboaPress
ISBN: 145258107X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
I KNOW WHAT TO DO, I JUST DON'T DO IT is for people who have spent a lifetime feeling bad about their body, and every Monday is a torturous new attempt to change. What's going on here? We know what to do, we just don't do it. The issue for us is deeper than any diet or program. That is because not loving ourselves is a symptom of being disconnected from the truth and our true selves. Sue takes us through the false beliefs that keep us stuck and replaces them with the truth about who we really are. We are encouraged to get healthy for good, not by finding the right diet, program, or other means of control, but by making the radical shift from weight loss to worthiness.
