Humour, Seriously
A recent survey of more than 700 CEOs showed that 98% prefer job candidates with a sense of humour and 84% think that funny employees do better work.

Humor, Seriously
Many people understand humor's power intuitively, but when it comes to using it with intention far fewer know how. As a result, humor is vastly under-leveraged in most workplaces. Research shows that humor is one of the most powerful tools we have for accomplishing serious things. Aaker and Bagdonas draw on findings by behavioral scientists, advice from world-class comedians, and stories from real-life business leaders to reveal how humor works and how you can make greater and better use of it. -- adapted from jacket

The High-Conflict Couple
You hear and read a lot about ways to improve your relationship. But if you've tried these without much success, you're not alone. Many highly reactive couples—pairs that are quick to argue, anger, and blame—need more than just the run-of-the-mill relationship advice to solve their problems in love. When destructive emotions are at the heart of problems in your relationship, no amount of effective communication or intimacy building will fix what ails it. If you're part of a "high-conflict" couple, you need to get control of your emotions first, to stop making things worse, and only then work on building a better relationship. The High-Conflict Couple adapts the powerful techniques of dia...
