About this Item

Achtsamkeit ist ein Konzept, das in letzter Zeit Gegenstand zahlreicher Forschungen und Studien geworden ist. Achtsamkeit in der Schule war auch das Thema von zwei internationalen Konferenzen, die 2016 und 2017 in Ljubljana, Slowenien, stattfanden und f r die der Autor des vorliegenden Buches zwei Vortr ge vorbereitet hat. Das Hauptanliegen des Autors ist es, daf r zu argumentieren, dass Achtsamkeitspraktiken einen wertvollen Beitrag zu einer fortschrittlichen Schulbildung leisten, jedoch nicht auf eine reduzierende Weise verstanden werden sollten. Die Idee des vorliegenden Buches ist, dass Achtsamkeit nicht nur f r die Verbesserung der Lebensqualit t des Einzelnen von Bedeutung ist, sondern auch das Leben von Gemeinschaften im Sinne von mehr Solidarit t und der Sorge um das Gemeinwohl ver ndern kann (ein achtsames Leben kann nicht ohne ethische und politische Verpflichtungen des Einzelnen existieren). Die These des Buches ist, dass solche positiven gesellschaftlichen Ver nderungen (die zu einer emanzipierteren, gerechteren und empathischeren Gesellschaft f hren) auf der Grundlage von Achtsamkeitspraktiken nur erreicht werden k nnen, wenn Achtsamkeit als kontemplative Lebensweise verstanden wird, die durch kritisches Denken und soziales Engagement erg nzt wird, wobei achtsame Individuen die Bedingungen f r eine humanere und empathischere Kultur mitgestalten.

About this title

Synopsis

Former Air Force Top Gun, Rob "Cujo" Teschner, builds on his work as the U.S. Air Force's Subject Matter Expert on the fighter pilot Debrief as an instructor at the renowned U.S. Air Force Weapons School. He's adapted the Air Force high-performing team approach to Debriefing and introduces this process to help organizations achieve their all and build contexts where teams can thrive. Among the many important concepts Rob brings forward, he highlights:There's a difference between Taskwork and Teamwork, and most organizations are only focused on the Taskwork at the expense of team skills;Organizations must organize to develop trust; they do this by building Psychological Safety, a condition where people feel safe to talk about the truth;Leaders have to learn to become vulnerable and admit their faults. Only by leading as they want their teams to act will they inspire people to act the same;Institutionalizing the practice of debriefing can increase team performance significantly, allowing individuals and organizations to achieve new levels of success.In the end, the key to an organization's long-term success is its practice of accountability and the degree to which its leaders hold themselves and their teams accountable for the decisions they make. High-performing fighter teams have been practicing this version of accountable leadership since World War I. Debrief to Win is the resource every organization needs in order to start improving NOW. It's also the resource every organization needs to build a context where teams can truly thrive. Debrief to Win is a book that applies to all aspects of human performance, from the boardroom to the dining room, from high-performing professional teams to family teams of only two people. The Debrief is a life skill with far-reaching ramifications. This book offers deep insight into how individuals and organizations can harness this powerful tool for personal and professional gain.
