    About this ebook

    When Friday afternoon comes, you’re flying high, but reality sets in while you’re watching television Sunday evening. Monday morning is coming, and you can’t stop it.

    When work is constantly buzzing in the back of your head, you know things are bad. You also know that you are not fully engaged in all the other aspects of your life. This is exactly what happens to millions of people every day. The good news is that you can fix this problem.

    The Good Professional provides tools and techniques to take control of your work life, get more done, and be happier.

    Learn how to:

    • fill gaps in your knowledge for getting things done

    • get out of your own way mentally

    • initiate the right conversations with the right people

    • operate at a higher level individually and as an organization

    Written by a seasoned multi-disciplined professional, this guide to business and career success does not include theory, academic models, research studies, and jargon, but it is filled with useful practical information that you can use to succeed no matter where you are in your career.
