It's the number one cause of stress and its adverse effects cost the economy billions. Workplace politics has bad press, with the vast majority of people linking it to behaviour without integrity. But, according to David Bancroft-Turner - managing director of the Academy for Political Intelligence, one of the UK's leading authorities on organisational politics - it is possible for individuals to develop and apply a set of skills and behaviours that will counter the negative effects of workplace politics and create a positive work environment for the benefit of all concerned. His Workplace Politics Pocketbook explains how this is done. He identifies the four main types of political 'animal' - the clever fox, the wise owl, the innocent sheep and the determined mule - describing their behaviour patterns and explaining how to develop the essential skills of political astuteness. The book emphasises the importance of understanding how our beliefs about people and the organisation we work for affect the political climate. A reader questionnaire helps put this into perspective. In conclusion, Bancroft-Turner looks at the important questions when developing a political intelligence master plan.

Mindfulness is our capacity to focus, to really pay attention and use our brain's resources wisely. Using an 8-step model, the Mindfulness at Work Pocketbook will allow HR and OD practitioners, coaches and team leaders to experience it for themselves and see how they can develop and implement mindfulness-based interventions within their organisations. Building a mindfulness culture in the workplace brings significant benefits both to the individual (greater job satisfaction, less stress, improved performance) and the organisation (lower absenteeism, higher productivity, reduced costs). The 8-step model spans an eight-week period with exercises for each stage. It begins by raising awareness of how the mind works and continues by building mindfulness skills and sharpening awareness of thought processes, especially how these can trigger stress. Integrating mindfulness into everyday life is dealt with in the final stages. The many exercises afford plenty of opportunities for much-needed practice.

Lack of feedback and coaching to aid development is the third most cited reason for resignations at work. 'Netgeners' with their reliance on social networking and instant messaging have added even greater impetus to the need for performance feedback. Feedback is integral to learning: it helps to develop skills, knowledge and confidence, and reinforces desired behaviours. It can reassure and thus reduce anxiety; and it can help people see the 'bigger picture', leading to greater alignment with organisational goals and needs. The Feedback Pocketbook encourages managers (and trainers) to use informal, formal and generative feedback as part of their day-to-day approach to motivating, managing and developing people. It explains how to construct and deliver feedback, and demonstrates how to use the underlying dynamics (explicit and implicit) to secure feedback acceptance.
