Perfect Timing, Perfect Advice
With our slowing economy, this book could not have come out at a better time. People who have been thinking about changing jobs, but who now can't because there is no place to go, will find very sage advice in Love the Work You're With. As he has in his other books, Mr. Whiteley once again demonstrates his unique wisdom and ability to offer practical, accessible advice. This time his focus is on how to adjust one's personal paradigms to find new satisfaction in one's current position, rather than running off to chase new ones. Special features of the book are the worksheets and exercises contained in very chapter which are easy to use and not time consuming, but are profound in terms of the valuable life insights they generate. I've been a consultant myself for 30 years and have been happy doing what I do. Yet I received a new boost of energy and healthy new perspectives from Mr. Whiteley's book. I can think of many colleagues, friends and family I will give this book to.

"Love the Work You're With" is about what you can do to improve your current work situation...no matter who you are or what your job is. It makes a strong case that virtually anyone who works can find more fulfillment in their current job situation than they are currently experiencing. The message isn't about not changing jobs. Rather it is about auditing your situation and finding out what you can do to improve it before you take such a step. The book has self-assessment diagnostics to help the reader determine where he/she stands on vital issues and also offers many exercises that support him/her in creating a strategy for change. The last chapter is specifically written for managers and leaders to help them create the kind of work environment the will help people who work for them to love their work.

Mr. Whiteley Provides Another Great Tool!
An excellent addition to my growing Richard Whiteley collection, this book does not disappoint! I have used Mr. Whiteley?s strategies/thinking from his previous works to effectively shape my company?s customer experience model. While the principles in this new book have certainly helped me personally become more motivated/productive, I have begun to use the principles in LTWYW to shape a more positive internal employee culture, thus extending our productivity and enhancing our customer service experience. An excellent book with a clear purpose and applicability! Similar Products
