The connection code : how to understand people and achieve a better work and private life Upplaga 1

Have you ever met a negative person who drained your energy? Asked yourself why the negative takes up so much space, or wondered how you can avoid being dragged along and dragged down? Have you become involved in misunderstandings and been unable to understand quite where it all went wrong? Or heard people say: ‘Come on! Surely we can talk about this like adults!’? Have you reflected over how best to respond when faced with someone who is deeply upset? Asked yourself what actually makes us humans function as we do? Wondered how we can develop good relationships while avoiding connections and interactions that steal lots of energy? Keynote speaker Lena Skogholm takes you on an exciting journey of discovery through the fantastic landscape of the brain. THE CONNECTION CODE is a guide for human relations that can be useful to you for the rest of your life. When we align our interactions with the brain’s biological frameworks, we achieve optimal results – it’s as simple as that! The author has a BA in Behavioural Sciences and writes both instructively and from personal experience, with many colourful and compelling examples, making the book easily accessible while still based on a firm scientific foundation. You will discover explanations for events that may occur in your relationships, together with concrete advice and tools you can use in a range of situations in order to bring about the best outcome for both parties. "THE CONNECTION CODE is a real page-turner about how, as humans, we can interact more optimally through increased understanding of ourselves and others. With insights and advice that work equally well in work and private life, this is an INTELLIGENT book for both the brain and the heart."  Eva-Mia Westergren, IT Marketing Director with 15 years’ experience in leadership "In THE CONNECTION CODE, the author explains in a down-toearth and clear manner what happens between people when they interact and what we can do to optimise our exchanges. A must-read for anyone who’s interested in developing better human communication."  Ulf Hall, Author and lecturer in communication and leadership
