The Rebel Rules: Daring to be Yourself in Business.
"Most people never make this connection [that their creative abilities are an asset]. They jump on society's bandwagon, averting the risk of repeating some painful childhood memory. They continue to fear and avoid dangers that, while once all too real, have no relevance in their lives today. Sometimes we even try to hide our youthful talents and gifts for fear they're not acceptable. The net result is a disconnected life—one that is too familiar to many of us." (p. 29)

The remedy and prevention of mobbing in higher education : two case studies.
"Far from being a slang expression, mobbing is the scientific term Leymann drew from the ethological studies of Nobel Laureate Konrad Lorenz (1967), to describe fanatic ganging up of managers and/or co-workers against a targeted worker, subjection of the target to a barrage of hostile communications, humiliations, threats, and tricks, toward the end of driving the target out of his or her job." (p. 2)

The Road Ahead.
"As behaviorists keep reminding us, we're social animals. We will have the option of staying home more because the [information] highway will create so many new options for home-based entertainment, for communications—both personal and professional—and for employment. Although the mix of activities will change, I think people will decide to spend almost as much time out of their homes." (p 206)
