Divide or Conquer

Diana McLain Smith

4.9/5 (28698 ratings)

Description:How relationships among leaders determine the success or failure of any organization No one would dispute the idea that relationships matter in business. Yet despite their obvious importance, they remain largely a mystery. Why do some conflicts get resolved quickly while others lead to permanent animosity? Why do some relationships grow stronger over time, others more fragile? Diana McLain Smith argues that most of us never even think about our relationships, at least not until they get into trouble-and by then it may be too late. Convinced that others have attitude problems, we focus on getting them to change. But that never works; it just convinces our colleagues that we're the source of the problem. What we need to change, Smith argues, are the patterns of interaction between us. Smith shows us how to build work relationships that are flexible and strong enough to survive the toughest challenges. She draws on fascinating case studies, especially the Steve Jobs/John Sculley meltdown, which nearly destroyed Apple in the 1980s. This book will break the myth that relationships are too mysterious to decode and too difficult to change. It offers powerful tools that can help anyone, from new recruits to CEOs.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
