‘Incredible individual, incredible book, incredible story.’ CHRIS HEMSWORTH‘A hero who is as humble as he is resilient… testament to a “never give up” spirit!’ BEAR GRYLLS‘From reading this book, the message that comes shining through is this: you can achieve anything.’ ANT MIDDLETONBestselling author and award-winning adventurer Ross Edgley has been studying the art of resilience for years, applying all he has learned to become the first person in history to swim around Great Britain, breaking multiple world records. Now Ross focuses on mental strength, stoicism and the training needed to create an unbreakable body.Ross Edgley famously ran a marathon pulling a 1.4-tonne car and climbed a rope the height of Everest (8,848m), after living with Yamabushi warrior monks in Japan and partaking in Shamanic pain rituals with fire ants in the Amazon jungle. On his epic 1,780-mile journey around Great Britain, which lasted 157 days, Ross swam through giant jellyfish, arctic storms, ‘haunted’ whirlpools and polluted shipping lanes, going so hard, and so fast, his tongue fell apart.Ross’s previous book, The World’s Fittest Book, was a Sunday Timesbestseller and explored the science of physical fitness. Now, in The Art of Resilience, Ross uses his swim experience and other amazing endurance feats, where he managed to overcome seemingly insurmountable pain, hardship and adversity, to study the performance of extreme athletes, military and fitness specialists and psychologists to uncover the secrets of mental fitness and explore the concept of resilience, persistence, valour and a disciplined mindset in overcoming adversity. This ground-breaking book represents a paradigm shift in what we thought the human body and mind were capable of and will give you a blueprint to become a tougher, more resilient and ultimately better human – whatever the challenge you face.

Without growth, there’s no life.Ant Middleton is no stranger to fear: as a point man in the Special Forces, he confronted fear on a daily basis, never knowing what lay behind the next corner, or the next closed door. In prison, he was thrust into the unknown, cut off from friends and family, isolated with thoughts of failure and dread for his future. And at the top of Everest, in desperate, life-threatening conditions, he was forced to face up to his greatest fear, of leaving his wife and children without a husband and father.But fear is not his enemy. It is the energy that propels him. Thanks to the revolutionary concept of the Fear Bubble, Ant has learned to harness the power of fear and understands the positive force that it can become. Fear gives Ant his edge, allowing him to seek out life’s challenges, whether that is at home, pushing himself every day to be the best father he can be, or stuck in the death zone on top of the world in a 90mph blizzard.In his groundbreaking new book, Ant Middleton thrillingly retells the story of his death-defying climb of Everest and reveals the concept of the Fear Bubble, showing how it can be used in our lives to help us break through our limits. Powerful, unflinching and an inspirational call to action, The Fear Bubble is essential reading for anyone who wants to push themselves further, harness their fears and conquer their own personal Everests.

The Truth About Employee Engagement was originally published as The Three Signs of a Miserable Job. A bestselling author and business guru tells how to improve job satisfaction and performance. In his sixth fable, bestselling author Patrick Lencioni takes on a topic that almost everyone can relate to: job misery. Millions of workers, even those who have carefully chosen careers based on true passions and interests, dread going to work, suffering each day as they trudge to jobs that make them cynical, weary, and frustrated. It is a simple fact of business life that any job, from investment banker to dishwasher, can become miserable. Through the story of a CEO turned pizzeria manager, Lencioni reveals the three elements that make work miserable – irrelevance, immeasurability, and anonymity – and gives managers and their employees the keys to make any job more engaging. As with all of Lencioni’s books, this one is filled with actionable advice you can put into effect immediately. In addition to the fable, the book includes a detailed model examining the three root causes of job misery and how they can be remedied. It covers the benefits of managing for job engagement within organizations – increased productivity, greater retention, and competitive advantage – and offers examples of how managers can use the applications in the book to deal with specific jobs and situations. Patrick Lencioni is President of The Table Group, a management consulting firm specializing in executive team development and organizational health. As a consultant and keynote speaker, he has worked with thousands of senior executives and executive teams in organizations ranging from Fortune 500 companies to high-tech startups to universities and nonprofits.

Work-Life-Balance bedeutet viel mehr als den Ausgleich zwischen Beruf, Familie und Privatleben. Sie umfasst betriebliche Rahmenbedingungen, Fuhrungskultur und personliche Einstellungen, abzulesen am besseren Unternehmensimage, erfolgreicherem Recruiting, weniger Personalfluktuation und Krankenstand, langfristig auf hohem Niveau arbeitenden Fuhrungskraften, besserer Widerstandsfahigkeit des Unternehmens gegenuber kritischen Situationen und zufriedeneren Kunden. Fur die Mitarbeiter hei?t das hohere Leistungsfahigkeit, Produktivitat und Motivation aus sich heraus durch die Ausgewogenheit von Arbeit, Gesundheit, sozialen Beziehungen, Zeit fur sich und Sinn. Auf dieser Basis entwickeln Unternehmen eine unvergleichlich starkere Kraft als uber Druck, Kontrolle oder andere klassische Fuhrungselemente. Wie eine solche Wirkung zu erreichen ist, veranschaulicht Christian Holzer verstandlich durch viele authentische Modelle der Work-Life-Balance, untermauert durch Praxisbeispiele aus Karrierecoachings, Betriebsberatungen und eigener Fuhrungserfahrung. Dabei fuhrt er den Leser von den psychologischen Grundlagen und dem Wert von Intuition, Empathie und Zeitsouveranitat uber Fuhrung und Projektmanagement bis zu Unternehmenskonzepten und praktischen Ma?nahmen. Mit mehr als 400 PRAKTISCHEN TIPPS AUS 50 THEMENBEREICHEN DER WORK-LIFE-BALANCE dient dieses Buch als Ideenpool fur ubergreifende und individuelle Programme und Aktivitaten im Rahmen sozialer Nachhaltigkeit, fur das Employer Branding und die Personalentwicklung. Der Zugang zum Thema erfolgt dabei uber die Betriebs- und die personliche Ebene. Damit findet es bei Fuhrungskraften genauso Anklang wie in HR- und Marketingabteilungen, aber auch bei Beratern. Christian Holzer ist Karrierecoach und Unternehmensberater. Er arbeitet fur Unternehmen und Hochschulen, hat in den letzten Jahren mehr als 350 Karrierecoachings und Work-Life-Balance-Seminare durchgefuhrt und ist Moderator der Sendung «Fair Play» der Radiofabrik Salzburg. «Christian Holzer setzt sich wohltuend ab von der 'Wenn-du-dein-Leben-richtig-steuerst-geht`s-dir-gut-Literatur' und vielen bisher veroffentlichten praktischen, kaum imitierbaren Beispielen aus Unternehmen, die aufgrund ihrer besonderen Situation im Markt Work-Life-Balance fur ihre MitarbeiterInnen leichter anbieten konnen als andere.» (Johannes Gutmann, SONNENTOR)
