El gurú de los equipos de alto rendimiento revela las estrategias clave para trabajar con todo tipo de personas (incluso las más difíciles).¿QUIÉN ES LA PERSONA MÁS COMPLICADA CON LA QUE TRABAJAS? Es probable que no necesites pensarlo demasiado para responder a esta pregunta. Ya sabes cuál es su nombre, cuál es su puesto, cuáles son sus manías y sus defectos. Has vivido de primera mano el desgaste mental y emocional que deja a su paso. Has visto los problemas que genera en todo el equipo. Te gustaría arreglarla, cambiarla, ignorarla o teletransportarla a una dimensión paralela. Pero no puedes, tienes que colaborar con ella. Podrías dejar el trabajo, pero en el siguiente te estará esperando otra persona complicada, así que necesitas estrategias efectivas para colaborar con (casi) cualquier persona, en especial con las más exigentes, ásperas o problemáticas. A partir de su experiencia como consultor internacional con equipos y líderes, desde el glamuroso mundo del deporte y el entretenimiento, hasta el rigor de las finanzas, las aseguradoras, la industria farmacéutica y el sector industrial-, Ryan Leak ofrece estrategias contrastadas para:
- Ver a las personas difíciles como seres humanos a los que comprender, y no como problemas por resolver.
- Desintoxicar expectativas poco realistas y aprender a convivir con lo complicado.
- Comunicarte de forma eficaz en entornos complejos.
- Aceptar el desacuerdo saludable como una herramienta para encontrar mejores soluciones.
- Establecer límites que les permitan a los demás entrar en tu mundo sin dejar que lo controlen.
A New York Times Bestseller!
Bestselling author and transformational speaker Ryan Leak shares research-based strategies for working with even the most challenging people to create more collaborative and productive teams.
Who is the most complicated person you work with? You probably don't have to think very hard to answer that question. You already know their name, their job title, their quirks, and their flaws. You have firsthand experience with the mental and emotional fallout they leave in their wake. You've seen the problems their complexity creates for everyone on their team. You wish you could fix them, solve them, ignore them, or teleport them to a parallel dimension. But you can't. You have to work with them. (You could quit, but your next job will have a complicated person waiting for you.) That means you need effective strategies to collaborate with (nearly) anyone. Especially the picky, prickly, problematic ones. Drawing from his global consulting experience with teams and leaders from the glitz of sports and entertainment, to the number-crunching world of finance, to the meticulous realms of insurance, pharma, and manufacturing, Ryan Leak provides proven strategies for...
- Seeing challenging individuals as human beings to understand rather than problems to solve
- Detoxing unrealistic expectations and getting comfortable with complicated
- Learning to communicate effectively in complex environments
- Embracing healthy disagreement as a tool to discover better solutions
- Setting boundaries that let people into your world without letting them run your world
"The process of learning to collaborate with difficult individuals is transformative--it's a gateway to greater creativity, stronger teams, and increased productivity," Leak explains. "On the other side of complicated is the wonderful, wide-open world of effective collaboration and a workplace you love."

An enjoyable new series with promise
Format: Mass Market Paperback
This is the first in a series. I have already ordered the next one so I like it. The main character Charlie Harris is a widowed library archivist. He lives in his late aunt's house and takes in borders and he owns a Maine coon large cat named Diesel. This is already a somewhat unusual cozy mystery because the main character and devoted cat owner is male. Charlie is a very personable character. He loved his wife (she died of cancer) and his late Aunt. He has 2 grown-up children that he cares about and he likes his job. He gets involved in a murder because his boarder, a young college, student is involved. His archival skills come in handy in providing clues to the murder. The deputy in charge of the investigation is the daughter of his long-time housekeeper. I didn't peek ahead to see who-did-it and I enjoyed the story til the end.. I don't think it's the type of mystery where all the clues are available and the reader tries to figure it out. The reader gets the clues as Charlie . gets them and finds out who the murderer is when Charlie finds out. Yet, the characters are engaging, the setting is interesting and it is a fast and enjoyable read. The plot is credible I like it.

Very good, entertaining mystery.
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I don't know if this author has written other books before beginning this series but it is a very good FIRST in what is so far just a 3 book series. I ordered all 3 but am reading them in order as I always do. The author tends to go into too much detail about mundane things about things like fixing a meal, etc., but it isn't too distracting from the story. I like a little hominess but this is overdone just a tad. The story moved right along establishing characters without throwing in so many that you simply can't keep them all straight as some authors do. A thoroughly despicable victim so nobody cares if he dies violently. And, to me, a reeeely surprise ending. For someone who has read as many mysteries as I have, this was a pleasant surprise and the author doesn't give you hints till you are almost at the reveal so that you feel clever at figuring it out but you don't figure it out too early and you are still a bit surprised that you were "right" about who did it. Also, the "hero" is a thoroughly likeable guy. Don't you hate it when the "hero" or "heroine" just comes across as someone you don't really like much. You know, the one that if he or she gets beat up, you sort of feel like they deserved it and you've not really sorry. Well, if something bad had happened to "Charlie" I'd have been very upset. Now, if #2 will just show up I'll get on with the series. This is a series I'll be keeping in my library to reread in a couple of years.

OK book
Format: Kindle
I read this for our book club, got the book on Kindle, so the "back of the book" description was not there...It took me a while to get into the book. I'm used to female lead characters, and I had to adjust for the lead character to be Mr. Charlie. The manners shown by the characters are a bit dated, by about 40 years, but it's nice to be re-exposed to good manners. Loved Deisel the cat, but whenever he's mentioned (which is a lot) it tells he's a cat. That got to be old, fast. Otherwise, it was a good book, quick read. I was rather shocked to learn that Miranda James is just a pen name for a male writer.
