Not every job is toxic. Not every bad day means it’s time to quit. Not everyone has the option to walk away. You’ve adapted. You’ve stayed professional. You’ve kept things running even when the rules kept shifting, and the support didn’t follow. Somewhere along the way, you started questioning yourself instead of the system.

What if, every time things get heated, you respond clearly and calmly, handling the situation with respect and kindness? This book helps you do that.

Führung entsteht im Moment eines Satzes. In der Klarheit, die bleibt, wenn alles andere unscharf wird. Dieses Buch zeigt, wie Worte Orientierung schaffen – leise, präzise, wirksam. Führung wirkt nicht über Methoden oder Rollenmodelle, sondern über Sprache. Über Sätze, die Orientierung geben. Über Fragen, die Räume öffnen. Über Formulierungen, die Unsicherheit benennen, ohne sie zu vergrößern. „Führung ist Sprache“ erklärt die psychologische Mechanik dieser Momente: Warum präzise Worte Halt erzeugen. Wie Unklarheit Konflikte nährt.

La menzogna svelata non è un manuale per smascherare le bugie, ma un libro per comprendere cosa accade realmente nelle relazioni professionali quando la verità fatica a emergere. Nel lavoro, nelle aziende, nella vendita e nella negoziazione, le persone raramente mentono per ingannare. Molto più spesso lo fanno per proteggersi: dal giudizio, dal conflitto, dalla perdita di ruolo o di credibilità.

Nada é mais inspirador do que uma grande visão que se torna uma nova e triunfante realidade. Pense em como o Empire State Building passou de um esboço a uma joia no horizonte de Nova York em 21 meses, ou como o iPod da Apple passou de um projeto com um único funcionário a um lançamento de produto em onze meses. São histórias maravilhosas. Mas na maioria das vezes as grandes visões se transformam em pesadelos. Quase todas as grandes cidades do mundo têm um fiasco do tipo no seu quintal.

There are things you want, someone you want to be, changes you want to make . . .But cue the chorus:I don’t have the time, money, or energy for that. I don’t have experience doing “x.” I am too short, fat, tall, old, awkward, exhausted. I work a demanding job. I have children and aging parents and can’t find any time for myself.

In order to transform our world, we must unite behind a new kind of civility. In a world that is more divided than ever, it will take a radical act to transform our discourse, our lives, and our world. International civility consultant and keynote speaker Shola Richards believes that unifying our world around the power of civility is that radical act, and it’s not for the faint of heart. Do we want a safer world to live in? Do we want less toxicity in our politics? Do we want a world free of hate and discrimination? Do we want to work in organizations that allow us to do our best work?

This is a book of practical advice for restoring the vibe when trust has been tested, damaged or even broken. It provides an introduction to the Mindful Improv Thinking framework for initiating, engaging and recovering from the difficult conversations that ultimately strengthen trust.
