The Power of Emotions at Work
Accessing the Vital Intelligence in Your Workplace
Yes, emotions absolutely belong at work (because they’re already there)!
We’ve all been taught that “being professional” means suppressing our honest emotions while we’re on the clock — but research shows that this actually leads to a loss in productivity, diminished creativity, and crushing job dissatisfaction.
Because the workplace as an entity threw emotions out the window more than a century ago, it hasn’t known how to build healthy or functional human environments, how to care for people, or what to do when their natural and necessary emotions arise.
The Power of Emotions at Work welcomes the emotions back into the workplace (they were there all along), and teaches all workers how to create respectful, effective, and emotionally well-regulated environments where everyone can get their best work done.
With her newest book, award-winning author and empathy expert Karla McLaren teaches communication and empathy skills to workers at all levels and helps them create sustainable workplaces where people and projects can thrive.
The Power of Emotions at Work is an in-depth guide for all workers
— employees, managers, and CEOs —
on how to engage emotions in the workplace to create a productive, creative, and truly workable environment.
Embracing Anxiety! (Book and E-book)
Embracing Anxiety helps you work with your anxiety as the essential emotion it is!
Most of us have been taught to feel ashamed about or afraid of our anxiety, or to treat it as a sign of weakness or trouble. Some people even talk about anxiety as an epidemic, as if it’s a serious disease that’s also contagious. This is a shame, because anxiety has an important job to do: it helps you look ahead, organize yourself, and gather the energy you need to get things done.
Your anxiety helps you identify problems and opportunities, and it brings you the energy and focus you need to face them. Anxiety also helps you complete your tasks and projects, and it gives you the push you need to meet your deadlines. Yes, you need skills to work well with your anxiety, but your anxiety is a valuable and brilliant emotion that’s essential to pretty much everything you do.
In Embracing Anxiety, you’ll learn how to work with this vital emotion in new and life-affirming ways.
