"Talking Chemistry" is a management book about leadership. It shows why the good chemistry between managers and their employees is a mandatory prerequisite for the success of a company. The book propagates a modern management style which has the employees in its core focus and is aimed at fostering their individual capabilities and talents - to their own benefit and to the benefit of the company. Mutual trust and respect form the foundation of modern leadership. On the basis of concrete business scenarios, the book shows how trust can be built and addresses some bad practices which destroy trust. It explains why many current approaches for building trust (such as team events and workshops) cannot function and suggests that daily business offers enough opportunities in this regard. For example, the yearly recurring planning process opens managers excellent opportunities for building mutual trust with their people and for aligning everybody toward the global business success. In some companies, planning fails in achieving this goal and destroys trust. The book presents a new method for establishing meaningful management profiles which can be of great use for assessing the suitability of candidates for management positions. It further proposes a new method which allows a differentiated evaluation of individual performance and personal motivation. "Talking Chemistry"addresses managers with the aim of stimulating them to continuously reflect about their leadership behavior. It addresses also young people at the starting point of a manager career for encouraging them to opt for a career path flanked by trust and respect. Why is this book especially relevant today? The expected economic transformation resulting from the tremendous technological development and the introduction of new (hybrid) work models is likely to also change the business culture of companies, making more room for value managers with a collaborative, trustful, and empathetic leadership style. Winning the race for the best and most talented people requires a new kind of management in total contrast to conventional approaches based on hierarchies, subordination, and authority.

<p>Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog), published in 1889, is a humorous account by English writer Jerome K. Jerome of a two-week boating holiday on the Thames from Kingston upon Thames to Oxford and back to Kingston. The book was initially intended to be a serious travel guide, with accounts of local history along the route, but the humorous elements took over to the point where the serious and somewhat sentimental passages seem a distraction to the comic novel. One of the most praised things about Three Men in a Boat is how undated it appears to modern readers – the jokes have been praised as fresh and witty.</p> <p>The three men are based on Jerome himself (the narrator Jerome K. Jerome) and two real-life friends, George Wingrave (who would become a senior manager at Barclays Bank) and Carl Hentschel (the founder of a London printing business, called Harris in the book), with whom Jerome often took boating trips. The dog, Montmorency, is entirely fictional but, "as Jerome admits, developed out of that area of inner consciousness which, in all Englishmen, contains an element of the dog". The trip is a typical boating holiday of the time in a Thames camping skiff. This was just after commercial boat traffic on the Upper Thames had died out, replaced by the 1880s craze for boating as a leisure activity.[citation needed].</p> <p>Following the overwhelming success of Three Men in a Boat, Jerome later published a sequel, about a cycling tour in Germany, titled Three Men on the Bummel (also known as Three Men on Wheels, 1900).</p> <p>Famous works of the author Jerome K. Jerome:</p> <p>Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, Three Men in a Boat, Diary of a Pilgrimage, Three Men on the Bummel, Paul Kelver, All Roads Lead to Calvary.</p>

The opinions described there are my own and I do not see them as influences or that you agree. I would see it much more as a stimulus for discussion. It may well be that the whole thing sounds radical, but we also live in a turning point in time where a certain flexibility is required.

In preparing this series of lessons for students of Western lands, I have been compelled to proceed along lines exactly opposite to those which I would have chosen had these lessons been for students in India. This because of the diametrically opposite mental attitudes of the students of these two several lands.The student in India expects the teacher to state positively the principles involved, and the methods whereby these principles may be manifested, together with frequent illustrations (generally in the nature of fables or parables), serving to link the new knowledge to some already known thing. The Hindu student never expects or demands anything in the nature of "proof" of the teachers statements of principle or method; in fact, he would regard it as an insult to the teacher to ask for the same. Consequently, he does not look for, or ask, specific instances or illustrations in the nature of scientific evidence or proof of the principles taught. He may ask for more information, but solely for the purpose of bringing out some point which he has not grasped; but he avoids as a pestilence any question seeming to indicate argument, doubt of what is being taught him, or of the nature of a demand for proof or evidence.The Western student, on the other hand, is accustomed to maintaining the skeptical attitude of mindthe scientific attitude of doubt and demand for proofand the teacher so understands it. Both are accustomed to illustrations bringing out the principles involved, but these illustrations must not be fanciful or figurativethey must be actual cases, well authenticated and vouched for as evidence. In short, the Western teacher is expected to actually "prove" to his students his principles and methods, before he may expect them to be accepted. This, of course, not from any real doubt or suspicion of the veracity or ability of the teacher, but merely because the Western mind expects to question, and be questioned, in this way in the process of teaching and learning.Consequently, in this series of lessons, I have sought to follow the Western method rather than the Hindu. So far as is possible, I have avoided the flat positive statement of principles and methods, and have sought to prove each step of the teaching. Of course, I have been compelled to assume the existence of certain fundamental principles, in order to avoid long and technical metaphysical and philosophical discussions. I have also had to content myself with the positive flat assertion of the existence of the Astral Plane, Akashic Records, Prana, etc., which are fundamental postulates of Hindu philosophy and occult sciencefor these are established solely by the experience of those who are able to function on the higher planes themselves. But, beyond this I have sought to prove by direct and positive evidence (adapted to the Western mind) every step of my teaching and methods.
