内容简介
Whether near the beginning or end of a career, Klaus (BRAG! The Art of Tooting Your Own Horn Without Blowing It) sees future professional growth dependent upon identifying and correcting self-sabotaging interpersonal behavior. Klaus illustrates each behavior's professional importance with stories from her work as a career coach. These soft skills run the gamut from handling critics (including one's own internal critic) to bragging. Her practical advice is delivered in the conversational style of a one-on-one session with a personal coach. The learn-by-example counsel may be helpful for those entering such situations as annual performance reviews-whether giving or receiving them-and public speaking. The volume is recommended for those who are in need of a more personable approach to rising up professionally. (Feb.) Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Introduction THE HARD TRUTH ABOUT SOFT SKILLS
One CONTROL YOURSELF
Knowing yourself is as important as knowing how to do the job.
There's no such thing as work-life balance,only trade-offs.
Years of loyalty can work against you.
Listen to your gut--it's full of data.
No risks, no rewards.
Get out of your own way.
Learn the honest truth about integrity.
You have to be good to be lucky.
Two GETTING THE JOB DONE
Your boss wants you to figure it out.
Learn when to stick and when to shift or the details will hang you.
When you can't deliver, don't say yes.., but be careful how you say no.
Your procrastination is trying to tell you something.
Whining is for kids.., and even then, no one wants to hear it.
Manage your meetings...or else.
Common sense is far too uncommon.
Three WHEN YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH..,AND THEN SOME
Listening is part art, part science, and all important.
Adjust your communication accordingly.
Say the magic words: please, thankyou, and Iin sorry.
Keep your mouth shut.
Get smart about asking dumb questions.
Learn how to present without needing beta-blockers.
Four HANDLING YOUR CRITICS
Books are judged by their covers and the same is true for you.
Don't be the last one to find out how you're doing.
Never tolerate a bully boss--even if you have to quit.
