Several examples are given applying this framework to situations like traffic laws, school reputation, time management, and conflict resolution. The document emphasizes taking personal responsibility and initiative to address issues within one's influence, rather than focusing on external factors outside of control. Effective time management is identified as key to exercising proactivity and influence over one's circumstances.
Stress is the body's reaction to pressure or demands placed on it that can negatively impact mental and physical health if prolonged.

The document discusses the changing role of managers from one of command and control to that of a coach. Coaching involves an ongoing dialogue between manager and employee to develop skills, performance, and potential. It focuses on encouraging and motivating the employee to achieve higher goals, unlike performance assessments. Coaching is important for reinforcing formal training and sustaining new skills. It indicates that the highest reason employees leave organizations is dissatisfaction with their direct supervisor. Effective coaching involves managers asking open-ended questions to draw solutions from employees rather than being prescriptive. This approach increases innovation, learning, thinking, and team productivity.
Body Language by N.G.Palit. Body Language is the language which our body sp...Nanda Palit
Body Language is the language which our bodies speak, many times even without our conscious knowledge. But, when we speak, our body language must be in congruence with our oral words. People tend to believe our body language more than what we speak, whenever there is any variance between the two. Body language is a truth teller. We must improve our body language if we want to be a more effective communicator. Observing other's body language also helps us to understand what others want to actually convey. So, closely observing body language can greatly improve our interpersonal skills, and help us to maintain cordial relationship with every body.
