how to achieve your goals and increase your influence at work.......2007-05-13
The book is very descriptive of what to do to get ahead in any organization. I really enjoying it
Yep, it's true........2007-02-20
Reading this book is like reading the manual for just about any corporation with more than 20 people. It doesn't matter where you go, you will run into a lot of what you will find in this book. It certainly doesn't hurt to be prepared.
A "must read" for every professional!.......2007-02-07
I read this book before staring my new job. I feel more prepared than ever for what I need to do to be successful. This book was so thorough and content-rich, I put tabs in it and carry it with me to work . . . just in case I need to reference something or need a "refresher course". I recommend this book for seasoned professionals as well as those just entering the workforce!
Give this book to graduates and employees!.......2005-08-01
The title of Chapter One in Secrets to Winning at Office Politics says it all, "Politics is not a dirty word." Office politics has always had a negative connotation but in reality it has just taken a bad rap. Secrets reminds us that office politics is simply the reality of relationships and Dr. Marie McIntyre shows us all how to play the game - honestly, ethically and successfully.
McIntyre uses real life examples from her experience working for a Fortune 500 company and her consulting business to give the reader an excellent view of the real world at the office. Her straightforward yet entertaining style is refreshing and her practical advice and self-assessment questions and surveys make the book a gem.
Secrets lays out in very practical and anecdotal style how one can succeed simply by understanding the unwritten rules of working with and for someone. What is unique about the book is the openness with which the subject is discussed - the real life examples are those we can all relate to as an employee, a boss, a parent, a teacher or a friend. It provokes a kind of self-evaluation that some people never seriously consider.
Give this book to every high school or college graduate you know! If you are the boss, read it, and then encourage your employees to do the same. It's a keeper.

The key to understanding human behaviour.......2005-09-21
Once you understand and assimilate the discoveries about human capability that Jaques & Cason presents in this book a whole new world of understanding people will open up. And from that, there is no return. Your understanding of behaviour, past, present and future, hasn't been added to as adding just one more piece. You will instead have the foundation without which no people-puzzles may be completed.
Fine Conclusion of Series.......2004-11-01
Elliott Jaques devised a system for analyzing executive ability based upon an individual's time horizon--the maximum period of time in the future toward which his/her work activities were aimed in their performance. He reached this conclusion during extensive, longitudinal, empirical studies in England. His series of books reflect his elaboration and extension of this finding. He worked, for a time, with Dr. Owen Jacobs of the U.S. Army (and then the Industrial College of the Armed Forces, ICAF). Jaques prior, groundbreaking book, "Requisite Organization" is more pictorial than "Executive Leadership" or this volume. While the present work may be oriented more towards human resource personnel, it is also useful to practicing executives. After reading it, I bought a copy (and of "Executive Leadership" too) and loaned it to my boss! I wish more bosses would read Jaques' works--and carefully at that. The charts provided are engaging and thought-provoking. The more extensive, "Executive Leadership" preceded this book in sequence. Jaques wrote "Human Capability" with is wife and publisher: Kathryn Cason. It is a fine sequel to "Executive Leadership", adding some additional perspectives on the ways people perceive and think and it completes the time-horizon charts that Jaques developed over time and published in this fine series. These books are most strongly recommended for serious students and practitioners of management as well as human resource professionals. They go far in attempting to move management into management science.
Outstanding, intuitive, and well worth reading.......1999-10-15
Dr. Jaques is re-writing our understanding of the human mind and how to use it best. Forget IQ, Meyers-Briggs, and the other flim-flam out there. This book offers us the hope that we can work to our potential without overload, balance our task output and spiritual needs at work, and organize our companies as effectively as possible, without sacrificing our humanity. So far every criticism I've seen leveled at Jaques has proven baseless. High level writing may put off some, but this is great research work.
Ideal for those concerned with developing human capital........1999-03-25
This book presents the results of a three year study by Jaques and Cason, providing a major breakthrough in understanding human capability, intelligence, and development. An outcome of this study is further development of managerial practices to match people with roles and develop training and development programs. This is a highly interesting and informative volume that will be of significant value to all HR professionals whose agenda includes HRD and the cultivation of an organization's human capital.

A Must For Managers and Educators........1997-09-28

Contains much sound advice.......2007-09-21
Talane's book is packed with sound advice and answers to some of today's more perplexing social questions. I don't agree with everything she suggests (calling every jerk from your past to share how their behavior upset you?), but her viewpoints are nevertheless well taken. Look past the occasional 7th-grade, trendy, colloquial writing style and this book will prove to be most inspirational.
Fresh and different.......2006-12-08
I don't know that I would trust a book that didn't have a few detractors. I have to confess I'm confused when some reviewers call this book too elementary. I think it's practical and accessible, and that those are two of its greatest strengths. You will start changing and growing right from the first PAGE. But if you're not ready, you probably won't, and that's okay too. Save it for later, like one poster did, or donate it to a church rummage sale and maybe change someone else's life. It's all good stuff. Thanks Talane! You're making it possible for me to "coach myself" because I can't afford to hire one right now. But you wait... I will be hiring a coach before long, I know it!
When the student is ready, the teacher will appear........2006-10-06
I tried to read this book three years ago, and at the time, I would have heartily agreed with some of the other critiques. I stumbled through a few of the chapters and tossed it on my bookshelf without another thought. It did not seem to apply to my life at the time and I thought it was too much fluff for me. Oh, how little did I know back then! Fortunately, I didn't give the book away and today I'm glad that I gave it a second chance. I have learned that sometimes we are not prepared to read certain books at certain times in our lives. Just because it may not compliment our current mindset, we tend to blame the book. That is exactly what I did three years ago.
Now, three years later, with my life plate so full that it is overflowing, I saw this book as if it was beckoning me to read it. This book is exactly what I need to read at this point of my overcrowded life. The author gives point after point so applicable to me, it feels as if she has read my personal life story. The instructions are delivered in a delicate manner, yet they are dead on accurate. Some of the advice hits me to the core. I can really relate to each chapter. Sometimes with a nod, and most of the time with an "ouch".
To reap the most of this book, I kept a notebook handy because Talane gives a lot of impromptu exercises. This is great for getting the creative juices flowing on the spot and for reflecting back on my thoughts at a later date.
There is a famous quote about self development: "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." I am glad that I was ready when I took that second look at this valuable book. I have gained a lot from it and would recommend it to anyone who is READY to take life to the next level.
Terrific book to help you reach your goals.......2006-08-02
Recommended to me by a mentor, this book offers easy-to-read, concrete suggestions to improve areas of your life that might be holding you back--whether you are working toward personal or professional goals--or both.
Highly, highly recommend it--of note is her 4-step way to stand up to someone who is behaving in an ugly manner toward you without escalating the situation.
If you're serious about changing and/or reaching a difficult goal, this book is a valuable tool.
Inane and Useless.......2006-03-15
This book is a rip-off. There is no new information in it. It purports to give unique insights, when all it does is rehash conventional wisdom.

Praise for Goal Free Living
Setting goals may be fine. But letting your goals take control of your life can be devastating. Goal-Free Living shows you how to explore paths in your life you never knew existed and discover a more exciting, successful, and rewarding life--today!
"If you have only one goal this year, let it be this: Read Goal-Free Living!"
--Daniel H. Pink author, A Whole New Mind and Free Agent Nation
"Stephen Shapiro's approach will help readers achieve the best kind of happenstance: taking a stance to make things happen."
--Heath Row Contributing Editor and Community Director, Fast Company magazine
"I have a sense that reading this book may turn out to be one of the most important things I've done in a long time."

"Reading Goal-Free Living is like jettisoning a hundred-pound pack. Suddenly, you're racing much faster and enjoying the breeze."
--Alan Weiss, PhD author, Million Dollar Consulting

Needed Advice.......2006-12-03
I found this book on goal-free living to be very helpful and refreshing with all the great advice and perspective it had to offer. Like Shapiro says, the lessons are unbelievable, they are just unsaid. Some of us have a longer way to go than others to get to being relaxed and accepting when it comes to life, but as someone on that journey myself this book was a great help. I would highly recommend reading it.
Discover Who You Are and Be True to Yourself!.......2006-10-12
Many people live their lives to please others -- their parents, their spouses, their employers or their friends. Others find themselves caught up in cookbook advice that will lead to being wealthy . . . such as live where the costs are low (but there are drawbacks to living in the middle of the Sahara Desert). Still others pick goals and never get around to rechecking their choices.
Creativity expert Stephen Shapiro challenges these people to get in touch with themselves and pursue a life that pleases them every day . . . not just on days when major goals are accomplished or praise is won from others. It's a noble and worthwhile message.
Although Mr. Shapiro was not a teenager in the 1960s, he could have been. Many of the book's themes will resonate powerfully with those who love New Age approaches learned in those distant days. In addition, his viewpoint is one that those in the Judeo-Christian tradition will find comfortable.
His concept is boiled down from 150 interviews with those leading pleasing lives into the following principles:
Use a compass, not a map (this allows you to be flexible in making progress towards uncovering and enjoying your passions)
Trust that you are never lost (look around to see what's good about where you are and keep moving ahead rather than sticking with the past)
Remember that opportunity knocks often, but sometimes softly (listen to that wee, quiet voice within -- Christians will like this advice!)
Want what you have (appreciate everything: it's all good for you)
Seek out adventure (be open to that road less traveled and go for the zest every day!)
Become a people magnet (alone you can do little, together almost anything is possible)
Embrace your limits (look for what's good about what you cannot do and back off from doing too much)
Remain detached (be like the meditator who sees herself from outside herself)
Curiously, although the book's title is Goal-Free Living, the Goalaholic quiz in the back suggests that you can be too goal-less for your own good. That's called being Directionless.
The phraseology differentiates between goals (which are usually bad because they often don't reflect what you really want) and aspirations (which are good because they inspire you and feed your passion).
Phraseology aside, if you have goals that fit your aspirations, you probably can use all kinds of goals.
I wondered how I would rank on the quiz. I turned out to be Goal-Free which surprised me because I use goals quite a lot. Apparently, my goals must be in tune with my aspirations. Whew!
This book isn't for everyone. But if you often question how you ended up with a life that you don't really care for, this book will be a superb guide to leading you back to what's important for you.
If you liked Mr. Shapiro's book, 24/7 Innovation, you'll find this book is quote compatible with that work (and better written): This of this book as 24/7 Living Innovation.
Enjoy your life!
Thoughtful, practical alternative to highly goal-focused approach to life.......2006-09-07
Stephen Shapiro's books doesn't really recommend being "goal free" -- it recommends being clear about what's really important and focusing on getting the most out of the present rather than focusing foremost on the future. He is laying out the value of this versus being overly goal-focused (the "it's the journey,not the destination" perspective). He offers a well thought out approach to living a fulfilling life that will especially resonate with anyone with a high Myers Briggs "perceiver" preference. If you spend a lot of time feeling you "should" have more and better goals, this book may give you an alternative way to look at your journey.
The Fun & Effectiveness of Living in the Moment.......2006-08-04
As an experienced voice instructor, I see students all the time who work really hard at their goal of "trying to sing". What inevitably happens is that they strain their throats, stick their necks out and hurt themselves in the process!
In order to really sing beautifully, easily and expressively, we need to relax, breathe and align ourselves with our passion in the moment (not worrying about what just happened or what should happen next).
Stephen Shapiro's goal-free take on life reminds me that this is also true in the rest of your life -- and I definitely have been needing the reminder lately!
As our music school's executive director with major fundraising deadlines, it's been MUCH more of a challenge.
Goal-free Living helped me to look at my past 2 years and realize that the times I have gotten the best results were the times that I was open to the flow and serendipity of life in the moment and took care of myself. The times that I was stressed, overworking and desperate were the times that I was the least effective. The past week was living proof!
Thank you Stephen for your fun, inspiring and life-changing book!
From another perspective, many of the tools he recommends are easy to understand explanations of Buddhist philosophies that have been working and respected for centuries.
And what incredible people he interviewed! The fascinating stories of the voodoo priest, the dating club members, the CIO of Intel are worth your time and money alone. I'd love to see a sequel of all the interesting stories and people that couldn't fit into this book.
Need a confusion-free sequel.......2006-07-02
From a marketing perspective, the title works. As a career consultant, I meet many people who are terrified of goals and, at the same time, desire a new life that can be delivered as quickly as a cheese pizza.
But in choosing a "goal-free" premise, author Shapiro finds himself doing just what he argues against. On page 61, Shapiro brings up the New Age slogan, "What you focus on, expands." Following through, he needs to heed the wisdom of the classic law of attraction authors. Instead of seeking to be debt-free, they tell us, we should see prosperity. The universe hears the word "debt" and gives us more.
Whether you accept law of attraction or think it's hokey, I'd say it's important to demand consistency. Self-contradiction can be a credibility buster.
That said, why write a book based on the premise of something you don't want? What replaces goals -- spontaneity? serendipity? seizing the moment?
In attacking goals, Shapiro uses a very specific concept of goals. At one point he compares having goals to following a recipe. The best cooks, he says, eventually learn to create their own recipes. But, as he acknowledges, they know what they're not using.
Shapiro also seems to attack goals that come from others. Most career consultants would agree. Those who become lawyers, doctors and salespersons to satisfy a parent's dream often become restless and dissatisfied. But some people dream of those very achievements, which call for considerable sacrifice along the way.
Finally, Shapiro loses credibility for me when he relies on Myers-Briggs to differentiate goal-oriented vs goal-free individuals. Everyone should read Annie Paul's book, The Cult of Personality, before resorting to the controversial and unscientific MBTI.
In the end, this book seems to be more about taking control of your life and getting an honest sense of what you want. Most of the content seems good, if not especially original. Why get hung up on whether you're following or not following goals?
And what if we decide to follow some of the author's recommendations, such as, "Become a people magnet." Are we or are we not pursuing a goal? And who cares?
Customer Reviews:
Invaluable!.......2006-08-15
There have been more than 110 goal setting experiments conducted in laboratories and organizational settings in the twelve years prior to publishing the book ('84). Locke reports that 90% obtained positive results for goal setting. There is no evidence that there are tasks on which goal setting fails to work, providing that employees have control over what they do. People assigned difficult goals performed better (unless the employee is lacking in self-confidence, or partial success is either impossible or meaningless) than did those assigned moderately difficult or easy goal; furthermore, those given specific, challenging goals outperformed those who were given vague goals such as "do your best."
The authors then go on to provide detail on how to succeed in goal setting. Obtaining goal commitment is fundamental. Explaining goals and the reasons behind them are often sufficient to gain employee commitment - subordinates must perceive a goal as fair and reasonable, and trust management. If they perceive a goal as exploitative (eg. piece rates would be cut, layoffs), they are likely to reject it. Action and contingency plans can help build confidence and long-term motivation - they can also serve to validate the reasonability of the goals and uncover hidden snags or barriers. Finally, timely performance feedback vs. goals is also essential.
An excellent resource for both managers and educators.
Clearly shows goals and accomplishment are primary.......1999-05-07
This is an outstanding work. Locke and Latham write so well and the idea that they have is very clearly and expertly communicated. There is no doubt that they are correct in their assessment of goal setting as the primary aspect of individual and organizational accomplishment. When you read about YOUR organization and YOURSELF in these pages you know that they know. They most assuredly lead you to understand that "doing your best" has never been a very clear motivational tool or method to achievement. This is a very substantial work that clearly shows that teleological behavior is the fundamental behavior of the human being and that it is the root of our achievements.
Don't let the publication date fool you. This book will be pertinent and relative to all that we do until we no longer get out of bed in the morning.
Goal Setting Theory.......1998-06-25
Set around the notion that both explicit and implicit goals motivate. It is asserted that goals focus effort, provide task focus and encourage resilience improving overall performance.
Three conditions are highlighted:
1. Feedback 2. Specific goals 3. Difficult goals
One of the most interesting critiques concerns time horizons and motivational techniques to get you through the boring task to something more pleasant.

Not Practical for the In-House Project Manager.......2003-12-31
Project Management Nation (PMN) is an in-depth guide to the practicing IT project manager working for a consultant firm. The book is filled with great detail of work to be done throughout the lifecycle of a project. The concern is that the book is clearly geared towards project managers that deal outside of a core company, and instead make their money as consultants. The book lacks examples, and starts off with many great quotes by Sun Tzu and around the third chapter they just disappear. A lack of examples in the details along with many grammatical errors in the book dropped my overall rating. If you are looking to read this book, give it a once over, then go back thru the lifecylce of the project you are managing and highlight the key points for you.
PM Nation.......2002-06-18
Project Management Nation is authoritative advice and a working blend of tools, techniques and goals. I have been a PM for many years and this book could only have been compiled with proven experience in the field. Outstandingly, Jason keeps the enterprise well in mind.
His book is a great resource and valuable addition for every PM toolbox...
Clear, Concise and a Pleasure to Read.......2002-05-20
As a new Project Manager, I set out to obtain a few texts would bring me up to speed quickly on the essentials of Project Management. I ended up purchasing this and three other books on Project Management. This book alone provided the information that the other three together could not. The author's writing style makes reading this book a pleasure and I'm sure I will be using this book again as a reference in the future.
Highly recommended book for the new and already practicing Project Manager.

If books broaded your horizons and allows you to fly, this book could possibly do that for you.

The author's suggestions are ineffective.......2003-09-30
I ordered this book to try to help the people in my office become more effective managing goals. My co-workers and I have tried some of the author's suggestions, but they have been unsuccessful. Rather than buy this book and read about goal management at work, your time would be better spent communicating with your co-workers. The book does not talk enough about the crucial aspect of communication, and focuses too much on how cognitive abilities affect goal management. Goal setting is extremely important, but Hilgermann's book fails to acknowledge how multidimensional goal setting tends to be.
