Stress and the Manager
Ours is a fast paced world. The need to help ourselves and other professional people manage stress has never been greater. This book pioneered the wave of business interest in stress management, based on Karl Albrecht's original work with stress management training. Use Stress and the Manager as your own personal guide to managing stress, and as a resource for your managers in training programs on personal effectiveness and stress management. It covers the basic definition of stress, how it effects the body, knowing when stress is harmful and when it is not, and how to manage your life, work, and activities to keep stress within your comfort zone. Also covers techniques for managing that can help others control their stress levels. Dr. Hans Selye, father of the medical theory of stress, says, ”I would not hesitate to support this book and will give it a place of prominence in the library of our International Institute of Stress, for all those concerned with management.” Provide a copy of Stress and the Manager to every one of your managers and team leaders.
Social Intelligence
Karl Albrecht defines social intelligence (SI) as the ability to get along well with others while winning their cooperation. SI is a combination of sensitivity to the needs and interests of others, sometimes called your “social radar,” an attitude of generosity and consideration, and a set of practical skills for interacting successfully with people in any setting. Social Intelligence provides a highly accessible and comprehensive model for describing, assessing, and developing social intelligence at a personal level. This book is filled with intriguing concepts, enlightening examples, stories, cases, situational strategies, and a self-assessment tool – all designed to help you learn to navigate social situations more successfully.
Practical Intelligence
Karl Albrecht’s bestselling book Social Intelligence showed us how dealing with people and social situations can determine success both at work and in life. Now, in this groundbreaking book Practical Intelligence, Albrecht takes the next step and explains how practical intelligence (PI) qualifies as one of the key life skills and offers a conceptual structure for defining and describing common sense. Throughout Practical Intelligence, Albrecht explains that people with practical intelligence can employ language skills, make better decisions, think in terms of options and possibilities, embrace ambiguity and complexity, articulate problems clearly and work through to solutions, have original ideas, and influence the ideas of others. Albrecht shows that everyone’s PI skills can be improved with proper education and training and challenges all of us—from parents and teachers to executives and managers—to upgrade our own skills and help others develop their own PI abilities.

The Power of Minds at Work
Drawing on his 30 years of experience as an organizational consultant, Karl Albrecht delivers a whack on the head to today's leaders: we've got to make our organizations smarter.

Using a wide variety of personal experiences, success and failure stories, and real cases, he lays out a manifesto for escaping from collective stupidity and achieving collective intelligence - in short, organizational intelligence, or "OI." While some might argue that OI is an oxymoron, or contradiction in terms, Karl Albrecht argues that it can - and must - be achieved ...
