The counterintuitive approach to achieving your true potential, heralded by the Harvard Business Review as a groundbreaking idea of the year.

The path to personal and professional fulfillment is rarely straight. Ask anyone who has achieved his or her biggest goals or whose relationships thrive and you’ll hear stories of many unexpected detours along the way. What separates those who master these challenges and those who get derailed? The answer is agility—emotional agility.

Emotional agility is a revolutionary, science-based approach that allows us to navigate life’s twists and turns with self-acceptance, clear-sightedness, and an open mind. Renowned psychologist Susan David developed this concept after studying emotions, happiness, and achievement for more than twenty years. She found that no matter how intelligent or creative people are, or what type of personality they have, it is how they navigate their inner world—their thoughts, feelings, and self-talk—that ultimately determines how successful they will become.

The way we respond to these internal experiences drives our actions, careers, relationships, happiness, health—everything that matters in our lives. As humans, we are all prone to common hooks—things like self-doubt, shame, sadness, fear, or anger—that can too easily steer us in the wrong direction. Emotionally agile people are not immune to stresses and setbacks. The key difference is that they know how to adapt, aligning their actions with their values and making small but powerful changes that lead to a lifetime of growth. Emotional agility is not about ignoring difficult emotions and thoughts; it’s about holding them loosely, facing them courageously and compassionately, and then moving past them to bring the best of yourself forward.

Drawing on her deep research, decades of international consulting, and her own experience overcoming adversity after losing her father at a young age, David shows how anyone can thrive in an uncertain world by becoming more emotionally agile. To guide us, she shares four key concepts that allow us to acknowledge uncomfortable experiences while simultaneously detaching from them, thereby allowing us to embrace our core values and adjust our actions so they can move us where we truly want to go.

Written with authority, wit, and empathy, Emotional Agility serves as a road map for real behavioral change—a new way of acting that will help you reach your full potential, whoever you are and whatever you face.

L'agilité émotionnelle (Sport texte) (French Edition) 30-Mar-2017

by David Suzan

( 466 )

$18.99

Découvrez votre capacité à accueillir vos émotions et à les transformer, pour mieux vivre.Chaque jour, nous brassons des centaines de pensées, d'émotions, de croyances et d'expériences. Qu'en faisons-nous réellement ? Nous sont-elles profitables ?

Tandis que la pensée positive et l'évitement, souvent préconisés, masquent ces pensées et ces émotions, l'agilité émotionnelle est la capacité de comprendre nos états émotionnels, surtout les plus négatifs, pour tirer partie d'eux et aller de l'avant.
Par exemple : être stressé => ressentir ce stress => l'accepter => s'en détacher puis agir pour le dépasser, en accord avec nos valeurs et nos objectifs.
Cette agilité émotionnelle créée notre adaptabilité, renforce notre capacité au changement, nous conduit à atteindre nos buts.

L'agilité émotionnelle, l'alternative au modèle de la pensée positive.

Didactique et accessible, ce livre comprend 4 parties qui sont autant d'étapes pour apprendre à passer d'un état de bloquage des émotions à un stade ultime d'épanouissement personnel.

Le point de vue de l'auteur est totalement inédit : Susan David s'oppose farouchement à la pensée positive : gommer, masquer nos émotions négatives, les travestir en pensées positives est une grossière erreur, car elles sont le signal d'un ressenti important, une base forte sur laquelle travailler sur soi pour avancer et réussir dans la vie. Ainsi, ressentir de la colère est le signal qu'une situation nous tient suffisamment à coeur pour ne pas nier cette émotion, l'accepter, la transformer en action et la dépasser.

Notre chemin vers plus de bien-être et d'épanouissement n'est pas rectiligne, ceux qui sont agiles émotionnellement parviennent à prendre les virages et venir à bout des nombreux détours que la vie leur réserve.

Beyond Goals: Effective Strategies for Coaching and Mentoring 15-Apr-2016

by Susan David, David Clutterbuck

( 13 )

$80.53 $84.95

What is there in developmental relationships beyond setting and striving to achieve goals? The presence of goals in coaching and mentoring programs has gone largely unquestioned, yet evidence is growing that the standard prescription of SMART, challenging goals is not always appropriate - and even potentially dangerous - in the context of a complex and rapidly changing world. Beyond Goals advances standard goal-setting theory by bringing together cutting-edge perspectives from leaders in coaching and mentoring. From psychology to neuroscience, from chaos theory to social network theory, the contributors offer diverse and compelling insights into both the advantages and limitations of goal pursuit. The result is a more nuanced understanding of goals, with the possibility for practitioners to bring greater impact and sophistication to their client engagements. The implications of this reassessment are substantial for all those practicing as coaches and mentors, or managing coaching or mentoring initiatives in organizations.

Oxford Handbook of Happiness (Oxford Library of Psychology) 27-Dec-2012

by Susan David, Ilona Boniwell, Amanda Conley Ayers

( 19 )

$79.99

In recent decades there has been a shift in focus from psychological and social problems-what might be called the "dark side" of humanity-to human well-being and flourishing. The Positive Psychology movement, along with changes in attitudes toward organisational and societal health, has generated a surge of interest in human happiness.

The Oxford Handbook of Happiness is the definitive text for researchers and practitioners interested in human happiness. Its editors and chapter contributors are world leaders in the investigation of happiness across the fields of psychology, organizational behaviour, education, philosophy, social policy and economics.

The study of happiness is at the nexus of four major scientific developments: the growing field of Positive Psychology which researches the conditions that make people flourish; advances in the biological and affective sciences which have contributed to the understanding of positive emotions; Positive Organizational Scholarship, an emerging discipline aimed at investigating and fostering excellence in organisations; and findings from economics indicating that traditional markers of economic and
societal well-being are insufficient. The Oxford Handbook of Happiness offers readers a coherent, multi-disciplinary, and accessible text on the current state-of-the-art in happiness research.

This volume features ten sections that focus on psychological, philosophical, evolutionary, economic and spiritual approaches to happiness; happiness in society, education, organisations and relationships; and the assessment and development of happiness. Readers will find information on psychological constructs such as resilience, flow, and emotional intelligence; theories including broaden-and-build and self-determination; and explorations of topics including collective virtuousness,
psychological capital, coaching, environmental sustainability and economic growth. This handbook will be useful to academics, practitioners, teachers, students, and all those interested in theory and research on human happiness.

Emotionale Beweglichkeit: Für freie Entfaltung mit klarem Blick und offenem Geist (German Edition) 25-Feb-2020

by Susan David

( 38 )

$17.32 $29.99

Der Weg zur persönlichen und beruflichen Erfüllung verläuft selten geradlinig. Diejenigen, die ihre größten Ziele erreicht haben oder in glücklichen Beziehungen leben, haben immer auch Geschichten über unerwartete Irrwege auf Lager. Was zeichnet diese Menschen aus? Die Antwort ist: Beweglichkeit – emotionale Beweglichkeit.

EMOTIONALE BEWEGLICHKEIT, der #1 Bestseller des Wall Street Journals, umfasst einen revolutionären, wissenschaftlich fundierten Ansatz, der es uns ermöglicht, den Wendungen des Lebens mit Selbstakzeptanz, Klarheit und einem offenen Geist zu begegnen. Die renommierte Psychologin Susan David baut dieses Konzept auf ihrer mehr als zwanzig Jahre andauernden Forschung zu Emotionen, Glück und Leistung auf. Ihr Resümee: Entscheidend für Erfolg und Glück ist die Art und Weise, wie wir durch unsere innere Welt – unsere Gedanken, Gefühle und Selbstgespräche – navigieren.

Mit dieser Roadmap der Emotionen entdecken Sie Wut oder Angst als Quelle von Energie und Kreativität neu. Das vom Harvard Business Review als "groundbreaking idea of the year" bezeichnete Konzept baut auf vier Schlüsselkomponenten auf. Diese ermöglichen uns, unangenehme Erfahrungen anzuerkennen, sie mutig und mitfühlend anzusehen, während wir uns gleichzeitig von ihnen lösen. Auf diese Weise können wir kleine, aber wirkungsvolle Änderungen in unserem Handeln vornehmen, die uns lebenslang wachsen lassen.

Susan David beweist, dass kein Merkmal ausschlaggebender für Erfolg ist als die Fähigkeit, eine elegante Verbindung zu den eigenen Emotionen zu schaffen. Dies zu lernen ist wie der Unterschied zwischen einem Kampf und einem Tanz!
— Marshall Goldsmith, Unternehmensberater und Bestseller-Autor

In eindrucksvoller Weise zeigt uns Susan David, wie Gedanken, Gefühle und Motive uns ermächtigen oder auch aus der Bahn werfen können. In ihrer Arbeit verbindet sie überzeugende Forschungsansätze, einen engagierten Stil und jede Menge praktische Weisheit, damit wir unser Leben grundlegend ändern können und auf allen Ebenen erfolgreich werden.
— Peter Salovey, Präsident der Yale University
