小到日常管理大到產品開發、布局事業版圖，沒有人知道所有問題的答案，也無法蒐集全資訊後才做決定，但成功的領導者懂得從「問對問題」中找解答！全球最完整的提問領導學經典，暢銷二十年，全新增訂版上市！如果你想了解業績為什麼無法達成、跨部門溝通總是遇到障礙、新計畫進度老是拖延、客戶或顧客抱怨連連、未來三到五年的策略是什麼、下一個商機在哪裡……那麼，你一定要先學會「問對問題」，並且鼓勵提問。如同Google前執行長艾瑞克．施密特接受《時代》雜誌訪問時所言：「我們用提問的方式來經營公司，而不是給予答案。」●管理大師及成功企業家們一致認為「提問」是最重要且最有力量的管理工具！管理大師 彼得．杜拉克指出：「過去的領導者可能是一個知道如何解答問題的人，但未來的領導者必將是一個知道如何提問的人。」奇異公司前總裁 傑克．威爾許認為：「真正問最多問題和最好問題的那些人，才是領導者。」戴爾電腦創辦人 麥克．戴爾相信：「問很多問題，可以讓你得到更多點子，而這些點子對競爭激烈的這一行格外重要。」福特汽車前執行長 唐諾．彼得森領悟：「多問一些對的問題，可以減少去找所有答案的需要。」《從A到A+》作者詹姆．柯林斯直陳：「從A到A+的領導方式，並非直接提供答案，而是不恥下問，這樣才能導引你做出最好的判斷。」●有好問題才有好領導，提問是找出突破性解決方案的核心！「我每天都試著做同一件事：提問。如果不提問，我可能會理解綜合情勢及問題，但是卻錯失了關鍵所在。」――查德．哈樂戴（Chad Holliday），杜邦（DuPont）公司董事長兼執行長豐田汽車教育員工每天要連續想五次「為什麼？」。這是運用因果關係的思考方式。如果員工思考為什麼，而且找到原因，他們會再度問自己為什麼，然後連續問五次。問完五次為什麼之後，他們就能仔細地分析原因。這種「問五次為什麼」的方法，對解決問題非常有效。美國創新領導中心（Center for Creative Leadership）曾針對近兩百位傑出企業家做研究，發現他們成功的關鍵，在於善於製造發問機會並懂得提問。這些聰明的領導者覺察到，單向地陳述論點會限縮工作者解決問題的能力，而提問的力量十分驚人，可以讓人思緒清晰，激發創意，指引出做事的新境界、新方向。於是他們用問問題的方式，幫助團隊從不同的視角看到問題的全貌，彼此傾聽，激盪出各種創意解答。更重要的是，透過對話與省思，凝聚共識、形

每個人都有與生俱來的通靈天賦，現在就是該啟用它的時候了★一本幫助你聽從直覺指引、提升靈性維度的實用指南★ 你是否曾在電話響起前就知道打來的人是誰？是否時常依照預感找到停車位？或是突然想到要聯絡一個朋友，而對方也剛好需要你的關心？或是常被身邊的朋友稱讚你的直覺很準？ 你可能已經開啟了通靈的天賦，只是你還不曉得它有多大的力量，以及你該如何運用它。正如本書作者所說：「有通靈能力很正常──事實上每個人都有某種程度的通靈能力。就像運動或音樂天賦一樣。」 我們的通靈天賦包含來自內在信息的直覺，以及來自外在的靈性訊息，當我們打開靈通感官，便能意識到事件如何相互關聯、能量如何傳遞流轉，靈性會帶領我們走向更為和諧、豐富以及有趣的生活。 喚醒你的通靈潛能，並發掘以下技巧： •解讀夢境和預兆 •與祖先、靈魂伴侶以及指導靈連結 •成功探索你的通靈能力 •確定生活中需要療癒的面向 •培養心靈「自我防護」技能，維護自身安全 這本書是為了幫助你用正確的方式經歷靈性開啟，掌握探索多維度靈性空間的藍圖，進一步學會識別不同的靈性力量，並為自己設下安全的心靈防護界線。透過書中的明確指引與大量練習，你將能夠喚醒天生的通靈能力，踏上靈魂真正渴望的路途。各界好評 「你若拿起這本書，代表你有通靈天賦。我們生活的文化蓄意讓我們忽視內在智慧；也就是說，大多數人終其一生都會隱約感覺與自己不可或缺的部分分割。麗莎．坎皮恩是你的嚮導，能幫助你找回自己與生俱來的力量。想有更多心流、洞悉和令人驚嘆的體驗，讓你的生活充滿可能性嗎？此書將告訴你如何復原並運用自己天生的通靈天賦。」——雅各．諾比（Jacob Nordby），《創意療法》（暫譯，The Creative Cure）作者 「麗莎幽默、務實的方法不是來回天堂的階梯，更像電扶梯，使這本全面的神秘學指南通俗易懂。麗莎．坎皮恩的最新著作確實名副其實。這本實用手冊或許是她迄今最棒的書，含括通靈師、共感人、治療師或空想家所需的一切知識，為了更深入地展現我們所有人都擁有的天賦。」——凱莉．沙利文．瓦登（Kelly Sullivan Walden），《一切皆是夢》（暫譯，It’s All in Your Dreams）和《不要白白浪費危機》（暫譯，A Crisis Is a Terrible Thing to Waste）作者 「讓每個人都能獲得靈性開發！透
