Perfect timing

Lynne's book arrived at the perfect time! As hospitals deal with nursing shortages as well as other shortages of healthcare workers in the U.S., managers need to make the most of the staff we have. We owe it to our patients and the physicians we serve to be the best we can be each day. The attempt to stretch ourselves to cover all the requirements of safe patient care with overwhelming budget cuts have led to short fuses and easy frustrations on a daily basis in acute healthcare. The Power of a Good Fight brings hope and ease to managers in what often seems to be an unmanageable work world, by simply and powerfully taking us step by step through all the What-ifs we face. Ahhh...It feels like having a coach at my side. I liked the book and plan to pass it around!

The Power OF A Good Book!

Every woman in the work world should read the Power Of A Good Fight. I am not a huge fan of business books, but a close friend recommended I read this book. I am glad she did.Lynne Eisaguirre explains why actually starting a fight can be the best way to improve your work environment. Eisaguirre's advice is right on target. I tried out her suggestions and have had a great response. From now on, I plan to address work place issues as they come up, just as I always have in my personal life.

If I Had Known Then What Lynne Eisaguirre Tells Me Now . . .

If I had known years ago what Lynne Eisaguirre writes about the various conflict styles in her book, The Power Of A Good Fight, my career and life would have moved along a less rocky road. I now understand that one partner I worked for had a 'roadrunner' approach to conflict resolution; the other a 'pitbull' approach. Although I realize possessing this information would not have changed the way my bosses approached conflict resolution, I'm certain what would have changed, was my approach to them and their conflicts. The Power Of A Good Fight offers valuable knowledge and skills about effectively dealing with different approaches to conflict resolution. This would have improved my career and life had I known then what Lynne tells me now in The Power Of A Good Fight.

The Power of a Good Fight

Can you imagine "welcoming conflict as a precursor to change and creativity"? That is what Lynne Eisaguirre helps us learn to do in this book. She helps us understand how avoiding a good fight deprives us of rich and rewarding experinces. If you find yourself seeking a third party or higher authority to assist in conflict resolution, you may be missing an important opportunity to enrich your life. Read this book and learn how to embrace conflict as an opportunity to grow, to learn new skills, to create new opportunities for you and your colleagues. I only wish I had read a book like this 50 years ago.

Solving work conflicts that used to drive you nuts!

A practical book for anybody who works for a snapping shark boss or has subordinates who seem to disappear into the carpet whenever there's a disagreement. Categorizes conflict styles into easy to remember animals (Much easier and more useful than the Myers Briggs) and gives numerous real world examples that you can actually relate to.
