Based on a powerful ten-part framework, The Art of Deliberate Success presents ten chapters that help you identify strengths and weaknesses so you can focus your attention and effort where it matters most.
The book includes an online self-assessment tool that helps you pinpoint the areas you need to focus on, followed by chapters dedicated to helping you focus on what matters, using language more effectively, mastering your behaviour, getting things done, and ultimately reach your goals.
* Based on the author’s 24 years of professional experience and research
* Presents a flexible and effective system that allows you to achieve goals that are professional or personal in nature
* Features a special online self-assessment tool for identifying strengths and weaknesses and personalising your self-development
Informal, easy-to-read, and highly effective, The Art of Deliberate Success is the ideal guide for professionals who want to reach new heights and stay there.
