Beschreibung
Even if most managers cannot (yet) throw and catch 3 balls in a row, they are all jugglers! Everyone juggles at a high level. Daily. You juggle tasks, priorities and deadlines. They all have a boss (and/or have employees) and are constantly overloaded with information thanks to e-mail, mobile phones and business mobility. Managers always have several projects that are running at the same time and have to be accounted for. The individual is often overwhelmed or experiences or feels insecure. Hectic is normal, calm and serenity are the exception. This combination of "juggling with balls" and "juggling in everyday management" is the leitmotif for this little book.
Both - leadership and juggling - deal with success, trust, change processes, goal setting, perception and flexibility. When juggling, managers subconsciously work on their attitude, their approach or their distance towards “new things”, on their energy, their personal disposition and their willingness to change. Juggling not only sharpens the senses but also (requires) skills such as concentration, balance, rhythm, coordination, flexibility, openness, creativity, measured use of energy, decisiveness and much more. All of these are skills required in business and get a new dimension of experience through juggling. Tolerance, the ability to cooperate and understanding are derived from this.
Autorenportrait
Stephan Ehlers has been juggling for 30 years, works as a speaker, trainer and professional juggler and invented the REHORULI® juggling learning system in 1995. This juggling learning system enables absolute beginners to learn to throw and catch with 3 balls step by step (with various throwing and catching exercises, initially with 1 and 2 balls) in an amazingly short time. Ehlers is the author of several juggling books and instructions in various formats and languages ??and is Europe's largest provider of juggling learning media with over 50 titles in bookstores. With his lectures (leadership & juggling, change & juggling, juggling & brain etc.) and juggling events (learning to juggle in a team or in record time), he has already enriched many well-known companies with creativity, know-how and results. Oliver Bäte, CEO of Allianz SE, learned how to juggle three balls in just a few minutes at Ehlers. The special thing about it was that all learning phases up to success were recorded on video. The Allianz boss then showed this video to several hundred managers at a kick-off event to explain the new change process at Allianz SE. Everyone could see that in the process of learning to juggle exactly what is to be expected in the change process happens: you have to get involved with something new and you will experience setbacks. You do things you've never done before. It doesn't feel good, but you have to keep at it. Managers have to go through the change process themselves. Must "grasp" how it works. In the end, however, there is also this feeling of happiness when you have mastered it.
