Glimpses on a Changing Scenery Book!

Few words about the book. As I have written in the book, I believe that:

Leadership, today, can be used both as a framework of thought and as a tool for bringing desired and intended changes to a personal and professional level. These changes, made intentionally in a personal and professional level, can propagate results and outputs in the areas of personal development, relationships, business, communities, policies, politics, etc.

Considering the present situation, with all the problems a modern person has to cope with, the changing of things that are not working anymore, as used to be, should and ought to be a task of personal responsibility. And for this reason, I believe that a broad initiative must be taken, in order to regain the insights that can lead us, to formulate a better social, political, business and personal environment. I believe that Leadership, as a principle and disciple, is a vital component in this procedure and can be used by anyone in order to enhance his/her personal and professional life.

Today, in a competitive market environment, with more demanding tasks and requirements a person can cope with, and with a widespread information overload demanding for attention, a person should he or she have a guide to support him/her in his/hers daily, short and long term goals.

This little book, moves to that direction. It consists of posts, have been published in the Takis Athanassiou | Leadership Initiative, and I think that will provide you a framework of reference and discussion on topics related to Business, Leadership, Personal Development, Productivity and Tools.

The book “Glimpses on a Changing Scenery” is all about approaches and concentrates on how you can use some methods, schemes, tools, and ideas to better your personal and professional life. It is also about people, and more specifically it is focused on one person. YOU!

The ideas in this book, cover various human activities, that could be made more efficient, simpler and even more enjoyable for you to accomplish if you would spend some time to think and organize, in a different way, some basic sections of your life.

We hear the phrase “think outside the box” a lot. If “the box” is something that is stifling creativity, it sounds like something to avoid. But when “the box” is a framework that smart leaders use to get better results from their teams, it is something to embrace.
