When crisis strikes, too often our first instinct is to give in to negative emotions: anger, fear, or confrontation. But the best way to navigate a crisis—whether personal, familial, or professional—with poise, dignity, and finesse is to prepare specific psychological strategies that can be used in any situation: that is, to arm yourself for Psychological Warfare.
With nearly two decades of corporate experience under my belt as a staffer and recruiter for high-profile energy industry companies, I’m eager to share my wisdom and let readers know how they, too, can master their emotions in order to be successful in any and every aspect of their lives.
In Psychological Warfare, readers will learn the power of confidence in the face of insecurity, the importance of a personal mantra to carry you through hard times, how to reduce distracting anxiety and worry, techniques for maintaining inner peace, and the best—and worst—ways to communicate with an adversary. Among other strategies, all are designed to produce dramatic and effective changes in conflict management and resolution. With lists of action items punctuating each chapter to help readers easily use these psychological principles, I’m excited to offer readers a book that is both entertaining and eminently useful.
