The Perfect Housekeeper. How to Choose One And How to Succeed In Being One

В России существует серьезная проблема - нет такого высшего учебного заведения, где обучали бы столь важному делу, как воспитание нового поколения. В педагогических институтах, техникумах и колледжах готовят специалистов для работы с детскими коллективами. Но няня - это нечто совсем другое. Не многие задумываются об этом, но почти каждый сталкивается с этим по ходу жизни. Книга, которую вы держите в руках написана отечественным автором и основана на отечественных материалах. Она начинается с элементарных правил взаимоотношений няни и хозяев, которые выведены автором на опыте общения почти с 200 нянь. "Идеальная няня" написана для тех, кто выбирает профессию няни не "по жестокой воле обстоятельств", а по призванию, для кого это не способ переждать худые времена или ступенька "карьерной" лестницы, - те не раз поблагодарят автора за учебник профессии и жизни.

Featuring a clear three-phase process that helps leaders assess the talent needed to develop organizations characterized by energy, resilience, and openness, A Culture of Purpose offers leaders the right questions to ask in order to: Tap and Nurture Your Current Corporate Strengths: Learn how to recognize, cultivate, and leverage the competencies of your current talent to develop your leadership team. Hire the Right Team: Ask the right questions to identify the innate personality traits in potential new hires, regardless of level and function, to bring on board those most likely to succeed in and shape your organization. Craft Your Culture: Create an environment that unleashes these competencies and traits and pushes them to the fore. Shape how people relate to one another and collectively go for what would be out of reach to them individually. Many books have described the «what» and the «how» of sustainability, but this is the first to reveal the «who.» Lueneburger changes dated preconceptions to show that sustainability is not an ideological mindset but a cultural trait of a resilient business.
