Dave Durand – författare

An experienced trainer demonstrates that the most important element of success is not putting in longer hours or expending more energy--it is keeping everything in balance. He outlines five key life components that must be brought into harmony and kept on track, or productivity will inevitably slow to a crawl; once this balance is acheived, less effort is needed to maintain stability and productivity increases. This principled yet practical motivational program is bolstered with anecdotes, research, and many years of personal observation and interaction with leaders and executives in training seminars and radio broadcasts. Individuals from all walks of life--sales representatives, managers, secretaries, educators, small-business owners, and stay-at-home parents--can make this program their own and increase effectiveness in every aspect of their lives.

Challenging the idea that morality is checked by the door at the workplace, this motivating guide uses 12 accessible lessons to help embrace both success and integrity in professional and personal life. Through practical philosophy and inspirational stories, Durand shows individual growth gained the right way is no longer an out of reach ideal. By focusing on "success" as a concept free of guilt and not measured with dollar signs, the workplace is revealed in a fresh, energetic light that is vastly different from what has come to dominate common thinking on this everyday subject. With this book's new outlook, thriving positively in life can be a natural obligation rather than a rare exception.

Offering dozens of practical techniques for managing time, avoiding burnout, and reconnecting with your Creator, bestselling author Dave Durand reveals the methods he has used over the past 10 years in his work with thousands of busy Catholics.
