About the book: 2019 / We are accustomed to the fact that orders from superiors should not be discussed, but carried out - this tradition is strong both in Russian society and in other countries. However, bosses often make mistakes, and the higher the rank of a manager, the more expensive his mistakes can be. Objecting to management or even not following their instructions is the right decision if you have more experience, knowledge or understanding of the situation. Ira Challeff, one of the world's leading leadership experts, drew on not only his extensive experience but also research in behavioral psychology to develop the tactic of mindful defiance. The book will teach you to think critically about what you are asked to do, give reasons for refusal, look for more effective ways to achieve goals, and take full responsibility for your actions. Defend your position without being afraid to go against the will of the highest authorities! If you are confident in your own rightness, make your arguments heard - through conscious disobedience.
