Harry Paul Book order

Najnovšie a doplnené vydanie svetového bestselleru FISH! ponúka čarovné podobenstvo o manažmente, čerpajúce ponaučenie z toho najnepravdepodobnejšieho zdroja – zo známeho trhu Pike Place v americkom Seattli, kam milovníci rýb chodia za obchodom i zábavou. Na jednoduchom príbehu Mary Jane, riešiacej problémy operačného oddelenia svojej spoločnosti ukazuje, ako si každý z nás môže zamilovať presne tú prácu, ktorú práve vykonáva. Autori rozoberajú najpálčivejšie otázky súčasného pracovného prostredia (vrátane spôsobu, ako zabrániť fluktuácii personálu a syndrómu vyhorenia) a ponúkajú múdre, ľahko pochopiteľné, okamžite uskutočniteľné odpovede. Prinášajú doslova praktický návod, ako vytvoriť inovatívne i zodpovedné ovzdušie, kde hravý a sústredený prístup vedie k nadobudnutiu väčšieho množstva energie a nadšenia a tým aj k väčšej produktivite a tvorivosti. Na skutočných príkladoch zo života ukazuje, ako takéto pracovisko reálne vybudovať. Toto, dnes už klasické dielo manažérskej literatúry, však nie je iba o práci. Je návodom, ako prežiť život tak, aby sa každý okamih mohol počítať. Z anglického originálu FISH preložila Miriam Ghaniová.

Harry und Marie, ein Rentnerehepaar, lernen ihre neue Nachbarin Petra kennen. Sie ist seit der Kindheit gehörlos und arbeitet in einem Hospiz. Wenig später wird Petra unheilbar krank. Sie hat voraussichtlich nur noch wenige Monate zu leben. Es ist ihr größter Wunsch, zu Hause sterben zu dürfen. Harry und Marie sind bereit, gemeinsam mit Petras Freundinnen alles zu tun, um ihr diesen letzten Wunsch zu erfüllen. Sie richten ihren gesamten Alltag nach ihrer sterbenden Nachbarin aus und gehen dabei immer wieder über ihre Grenzen, weil sie glauben, ihr täglicher Einsatz für Petra sei eine ihnen zugefallene Lebensaufgabe. Nur dass sie die für Petra tätigen Pflegekräfte nie zu Gesicht bekommen, erscheint ihnen merkwürdig, und auch einige Freundinnen ihrer Nachbarin verhalten sich seltsam. Immer öfter fragen sich Harry und Marie, worauf sie sich da eingelassen haben, doch sie sind fest entschlossen, Petra nicht im Stich zu lassen. Bis etwas Ungeheuerliches geschieht ...

You're back in the fishing boat with the crew that brought you the successful Fish! and Fish! Tales. Offering another finny fable, Stephen C. Lundin, John Christensen and Harry Paul present a business parable based on creating and sustaining successful change. The book uses the same fictitious approach as the other two Fish!ing trips, but this time the story is set at a hospital's nursing station. The agent-of-change head nurse has departed and the new head nurse feels that the group is losing its vision. Then, she discovers that a local sushi restaurant is a model of excellence, and all goes swimmingly after that. Although the advice offered isn't particularly unique, some may find a certain charm in the story. Given that this is round three, the format may seem a little repetitive to those who have already Fish!ed. If you want to catch the core of the message on your first cast, look for the highlights on the occasional pages in whale-size type. getAbstract.com recommends the basic common sense of these messages, even if the storytelling is a little fishy
