- Summary:
- In The Pause Principle, renowned corporate communications expert Cynthia Kane reveals her tried-and-tested SOFTEN practice to better handle awkward, difficult, or tense conversations at work by breaking free of automatic reactions including shutting down, running away, yelling, or getting passive aggressive or defensive. In this book, listeners will learn how to regulate their bodily responses and emotions to arrive at peaceful and productive resolutions during even the most challenging moments at work. With Kane's help, listeners have the opportunity to make a profound impact in their organizations, both interpersonally and quantitatively by reducing miscommunications and therefore corporate errors. This book explores topics such as the fight, flight, or freeze response, and why it's actually a very effective evolution strategy in the wilderness--just not in the workplace; the true financial cost of corporate miscommunication, estimated to be $4,200 per employee per year; and the importance of mindfulness in work and life, and its key role in calming the human nervous system during stressful situations. The Pause Principle earns a well-deserved spot on the bookshelves of corporate leaders, executives, managers, and all individuals seeking proven strategies to smoothly navigate stressful social situations in the workplace.
