Find Understanding in Misunderstanding: Renewing the Cycle of Change-A Defense of the "Employees First, Customers Second" Philosophy of Management
by Vineet NayarAs author Vineet Nayar, CEO of HCL Technologies, points out, it is probably easier to misunderstand his "employees first, customers second" management philosophy than it is to understand it. So in this chapter, Nayar addresses the misunderstandings he hears most frequently as he travels around the world talking about his unconventional approach and how it enabled HCLT, under his leadership, to realize enormous profitable growth-even during the worst of the global financial crisis. Some of the objections he addresses head on: "Employees first, customers second" won't work in difficult times; it isn't necessary in good times; customers will never see its value; it requires large-scale initiatives; it doesn't improve a company's performance. In a narrative rich with anecdotes but reliant on solid business results, Nayar presents a compelling case for creating transformative change, even in a vast global corporation, by turning conventional management upside down. This chapter was originally published as Chapter 5 of "Employees First, Customers Second: Turning Conventional Management Upside Down."

Find Your Strongest Life: What the Happiest and Most Successful Women Do Differently
by Marcus BuckinghamRead Find Your Strongest Life and discover:How to make the most of the role you were born to play / How to get others to understand who you really are / The successful strategies of other women like you / Check out what women are already saying about Find Your Strongest Life.Brooke: When I read the "Ten Myths" that opened the book, I was completely hooked. The statistics are interesting and fresh. I also related to the problem that sets up the book: "Which parts of me should I cut out?" As I read, I could see myself in the Marcus's big-picture analysis and statistics. The early part of the book made me anticipate a breakthrough. And Marcus delivered. Overall, he explains a woman's dilemma perfectly . . . in fresh terms with a unique spin. The main ideas in each chapter were so engaging. Chapter 6 in particular is worth the price of the book. I have already started looking for strong moments in my life, and I want to tell every woman I know to do the same. It is definitely life-changing.Rebecca: It was really good. It was awesome. And to be honest, perfect timing for my life. I'm REALLY in that place. I can't tell you how badly I've been depressed for the last several months just trying to figure out what to do differently so I'm not so miserable. On one hand, I'm grateful I have a job still. I have a mortgage and bills and all that. But on the other hand...I can't continue to work at a job that gets me nowhere, is not rewarding, not challenging, and mentally drains me. I really have started avoiding my family because I've become so rude and snippy. It's a bad cycle. BUT...God willing this year (sooner than later) I will be able to put this behind me and do what I love :) Even if it's making half as much money. Thanks for thinking of me to read this. I needed it!Delaney: I was on a plane as I finished reading the manuscript. I was going to be with my daughter who is a law student. As I finished the pages, Marcus helped me gain a new understanding of myself that stood out like a neon sign: I am the person who helps others build infrastructure, get through situations ,and set everything right. It goes beyond motherhood. I am an event planner by birth. I see big pictures and the components necessary to get from vision to execution. The content helped me to reframe my own thinking. Very helpful. I'm excited to take the online test and see which role I'm born to play. Jennifer: As a working mother, I found the concept of the book fascinating. There are daily struggles of trying to balance being the perfect wife, mother, and employee, and the book helped me truly understand how to navigate all those demands.
