Imagine a workplace where your imagination mattered -- where creativity, innovation, interpersonal connection and diversity of thought were not only incorporated into day-to-day operations but were the driving forces behind profitable growth and meaningful impact. Contemporary HR professionals and business leaders are beginning to understand the importance of opening their minds and shifting the boundaries of the modern workplace to unlock potential and maximize performance. This unique and powerful book explores the vast spectrum of imaginative ways to lead, learn, innovate, discover, create and achieve in any industry and in any role. Imagination@Work is the fourth volume in the Silver Tree Publishing @Work Series -- it is a unique collection of insights from business leaders, many HR and OD experts, about new ways to imagine what is possible at work, on teams and in our own careers. Practical Tips and Inspiring Stories About What Your Organization Needs
In his foreword for Imagination@Work, executive coach and professional speaker Jeff Nally suggests that we're in an imagination-dampening culture - that companies are increasingly focused on efficiency, hierarchy, and the adherence to boundaries, all of which can restrict our ability to spark the kind of business breakthroughs and cultural revolutions that start with imagination. This book, penned by five renowned leaders, explores the big issues that really move the needle in modern, competitive companies. Read the book cover-to-cover, or jump in at the chapter that most appeals to you. Here's what awaits you ... Maria Baker -- Welcome Millennials! There's Room for Us All at the Top
A practical review of the impact Millennials are having on modern workplaces, and how we can all thrive -- and lead -- together. Michele Fantt Harris - Exit Interview vs. Stay Interview
Explore the remarkable impact -- for organizations and individuals -- when exit interviews and stay interviews are performed optimally. Michele Fantt Harris -- Coaching in the Workplace
Learn a workplace coaching model that anyone can use, complete with questions and examples to help you think like a coach to guide employees toward improved performance and engagement. Denise Jerome -- It All Starts with Your Story
A personal invitation from an entrepreneur who has been there and done that about how to begin using your imagination to create your own story at work, and how it leads to more meaning, purpose, innovation and engagement -- up, down and across the organization. Lisa Johnson - Managing Compliance with Confident Communications
A step-by-step guide to taking the fear out of difficult employee relations situations so you can lead with confidence and communicate with clarity. Michael Rider - Living an Engaged Life at Work Through Mentoring
A personal story and a practical review of mentor-mentee relationships, which will spark your imagination about mentoring to your organization and your life. Wherever and However You Lead, This Book is for You
When you lead, shifting boundaries and opening minds is up to you. It's what sparks opportunity, engages your most talented people, and leads to sustainable, profitable growth. This book's exploration of interpersonal relationships and communication at work - dynamics you can improve through distinct decisions and changes - is a much-needed reminder to us all (to entrepreneurs and small business owners, Fortune 1000 managers and leaders, and nonprofit professionals alike) that managing business starts with managing people. And that it's not all just a matter of luck. It's a matter of commitment.
