Tom Despard has done it again Emotional Avenues, Feeling How We Work is a sequel and supplement to his groundbreaking book Performance Avenues, Knowing How We Work. In order to more fully understand who we are at work, we need to look at both how we normally think AND how we normally feel. For the first time, we now have a tool to assess our Performance Type - and that of others at work - by intuitively evaluating both our thinking AND our feeling in one comprehensive approach. Assessments and descriptions of work traits and types have traditionally centered much more on thinking than feeling. And yet feeling drives our behavior more or less as much as thinking and more so in quick decision-making. In this excellent new book, Tom Despard tackles a range of questions that modern leaders are just starting to reflect on. Read it and deepen your grasp of what makes for excellence in any organizational context - Tom Morris, Author of The Oasis Within, True Success, and If Aristotle Ran General Motors, among many other books, Wilmington, NC Tom brings his rich experience as a CEO to an engaging perspective of how emotions impact job performance. His Emotional Avenues model combines with his Performance Avenues model to offer an insightful exploration of how to apply these concepts to the day to day management of people. - Chuck Russell, Chairman & CEO BestWork DATA, Atlanta, GA Tom applies his successful business background and a unique blend of structured thinking and creative writing into Emotional Avenues. I have personally benefited from Performance Avenues. This new book, which speaks to the heart, is another great resource for talent development for individuals, teams and companies. - Bob Kramer, Executive, Trainer and Business Coach, Lancaster, PA If Helen Keller is right that, "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart," then Tom Despard is on track. Top performance, in any field, cannot be achieved without first understanding and accessing the power of emotion. - Jon Adams, Lead Pastor, The Vine Community Church, Cumming, GA Tom's work contains an intensity and depth of intellectual stimulation that cannot be captured in a single reading. When readers return to immerse themselves in a chapter or two of this book, they will draw another nugget of wisdom to utilize in their personal interactions with others. - Dave Thompson, Management Consultant, Lancaster, PA Tom Despard is a retired builder and the author of four business books and four poetry collections. He has had a longtime interest in talent development and most recently in how emotions govern our behavior and decision-making at work. He resides in historic Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and places in the sunny south with his wife Gayle. www.PerformanceAvenues.com
