Ønsker du å bli tryggere på deg selv som leder og bidra til at dine medarbeidere og kolleger blir mer engasjert og motivert? Trenger du hjelp til å bli tydeligere, mer helhjertet og autentisk i lederrollen? Opplever du snubletråder i kommunikasjonen som fører til unødvendige misforståelser og konflikter? I Jobbpsykologi - kunnskap, trygghet og mot til å lede deg selv og andre legges det mindre vekt på organisasjonspsykologiske teorier og tradisjonelle ledelsesmodeller enn på å forklare de usynlige faktorene som påvirker oss på jobb, og som har avgjørende betydning for trivsel, prestasjon og resultat. Vi mennesker er ikke så rasjonelle som vi liker å tro. Vi er følelsesstyrt, og det påvirker all kommunikasjon og kvaliteten på relasjonene våre. Psykologene Carina Carl og Rebekka Egeland forklarer her hvordan hjernen fungerer, hvordan ulike sinnstilstander virker inn på vår oppførsel og hvorfor psykologi er ditt viktigste lederverktøy. Boken er skrevet for alle typer ledere, men er like interessant for alle som ønsker personlig utvikling og vekst, eller har et arbeidssted å gå til. Ledelse er psykologi. Uavhengig av hvilket nivå du leder på, vil du komme til å trenge grunnleggende psykologisk kunnskap og forståelse for hvilke usynlige mekanismer som påvirker både deg selv og dine medarbeidere når dere møtes på jobb. Carina Carl er psykolog med spesialitet i arbeidspsykologi. Hun har utviklet en rekke kurs, foredrag og konsepter for arbeidslivet og er psykologen i podcasten Noia. Carina har tidligere skrevet Tenk enkelt - få mer av det som betyr mest. Rebekka Egeland er psykolog med spesialitet i organisasjonspsykologi. Hun er tidligere administrerende direktør og arbeider i dag med strategisk rådgivning, organisasjonsendring og lederutvikling. Rebekka er forfatter av bestselgeren Mindfulness i hverdagen.

'A must-read for working women and the men who work with us, love us and support us' Hillary Rodham Clinton'Surprising and compelling' Financial TimesThe much-anticipated and inspiring memoir by Indra Nooyi, the trailblazing former CEO of PepsiCo, offering clear-eyed insight and a call to action for how our society can really blend work and family - and advance women - in the twenty-first centuryFor more than a dozen years as one of the world's most admired CEOs, Indra Nooyi redefined what it means to be an exceptional leader. The first woman, person of color, and immigrant to run a Fortune 50 company - and one of the foremost strategic thinkers of our time - Nooyi transformed PepsiCo with a unique vision, a vigorous pursuit of excellence, and a deep sense of purpose. Now, in a rich memoir brimming with grace, grit, and good humor, My Life in Full offers a firsthand view of a legendary career and the sacrifices it so often demanded.In her book, Nooyi shares the events that shaped her - from her childhood in 1960s India, to the Yale School of Management, to her rise as a consultant and corporate strategist who soon ascended into the most senior executive ranks. The book offers an intimate look inside PepsiCo, detailing how she steered the iconic American company toward healthier products and reinvented its environmental profile without curbing financial performance - despite resistance at every turn. At the same time, Nooyi built a home with her husband - also a high-powered executive - two daughters, and members of her extended family. My Life in Full includes her unvarnished take on the competing pressures on her attention and time, and what she learned along the way. This book, as has her personal journey, will inspire young women everywhere to believe that they, too, can climb to powerful roles without giving up on the desire for a family and children. But, as Nooyi eloquently argues, her story is not a call for women to simply try harder, but is proof of the importance of organised care structures in all of our success. Nooyi makes a clear, actionable, urgent call for business and government to prioritise the care ecosystem, from skilled care networks to zoning policy, to paid leave and flexible and predictable work hours, each so critical to unleashing the economy's full potential and helping families thrive.Generous, authoritative, and grounded in lived experience, My Life in Full is both the story of an extraordinary leader's life, and a moving tribute to the relationships that created it.

'A startling investigation of the corporate blunders behind the tragedies that claimed the lives of 346 passengers.' - The Times 'A compelling, deeply reported account written in crisp, controlled anger...an indictment not just of on of America's most celebrated companies, but of an entire era.' - Financial Times 'An authoritative, gripping and finely detailed narrative that charts the decline of one of the great American companies.' - New York Times Book Review-------- Discover the corporate scandal that transfixed the world, cost hundreds of innocent lives, and almost destroyed a global institution. Boeing is a century-old titan of industry, having played a role in the early days of commercial flight, Second World War bombing missions and even moon landings. Yet in 2018 and 2019, two crashes of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 killed 346 people. The crashes exposed a shocking pattern of malfeasance, leading to the biggest crisis in the company's history - and one of the costliest corporate scandals ever. How did things go so horribly wrong? Flying Blind is the definitive account of the disasters that shocked the world; a chilling, behind-the-scenes look at the corporate dysfunction which contributed to one of the worst tragedies in modern aviation. It's an expos of a reckless culture where - in a race to beat the competition and reward top executives - Boeing skimped on testing, pressured employees to meet unrealistic deadlines and ultimately convinced regulators to put planes into the air without properly equipping them or their pilots for flight.From award-winning Bloomberg investigative journalist Peter Robison, this is the story of a business gone wildly off course. At once endlessly fascinating and deeply disturbing, it shows how the iconic company fell prey to a win-at-all-costs mentality, threatening an industry and sacrificing countless lives.--------'An urgent, compelling and richly reported story of how the almighty profit motive supplanted a culture of engineering excellence, and the avoidable calamity that has impacted all of us as a result.' - Brad Stone, author of Amazon Unbound and The Everything Store'A story everyone - every consumer, every citizen, every worker in every industry - needs to read.' - Diana B. Henriques, NYT bestselling author of The Death of Trust and The Wizard of Lies: Bernie Madoff'The astoundingly well reported and beautifully told story of the downfall of what was once a great American company. A must-read.' - Bethany McClean, author of All The Devils Are Here and The Smartest Guys In The Room
