Mary Murphy Bücher

Warum sind bestimmte Gruppen, Teams, Organisationen kooperativer, belastbarer und innovativer als andere? Weil sie so wie einzelne Individuen ein unterschiedliches Mindset haben, einige ein starres, andere ein bewegliches. Die Sozialpsychologin Mary Murphy hat erforscht, wie die uns umgebende Kultur unsere Denkweise, Motivation und Leistung beeinflussen und verbessern kann. Ihre bahnbrechenden Erkenntnisse zeigen, dass Organisationen und Teams, die über ein auf Wachstum ausgerichtetes Mindset verfügen, eher zum Lernen inspirieren, die Zusammenarbeit fördern und das für Risikobereitschaft notwendige Vertrauen aufbauen. Es ist wahrscheinlicher, dass sie Spitzenergebnisse erzielen und sie helfen gleichzeitig jedem Einzelnen, sein Potenzial zu entfalten. Mary Murphy veranschaulicht die Zusammenhänge zwischen individueller Leistung, Teamleistung und Unternehmenskultur mit einer Kombination aus Beispielen des gesellschaftlichen Zusammenlebens und Geschichten aus ihrer Beratung vieler der bekanntesten Unternehmen der Welt.

With bold, eye-catching graphics, glittering foil, and a gentle text, Mary Murphy retells an age-old Christmas story for the youngest of children. It was a silent night. I sat in my tree, with a waiting feeling. On a silent night, a star beckons to Little Owl, and he follows. He flies by three men on camels, plodding through sand and watching the sky. He flies above hills where shepherds keep watch over sheep, who watch too. And finally, in a distant manger, he finds a man, a woman, and the happiest baby - and joy that lights the world.
