Strokes, Games and the Drama Triangle
Transactional Analysis as it may be applied in Organisations.
CHAPTER ONE
STROKE THEORY
Human beings are stroke junkies. By stroke, I mean the TA term for a form of recognition, be it a smile, or a frown, or recognition for a job well done, or punishment for poor performance.
Having presided over countless disciplinary enquiries, I've pretty much seen and heard it all. The most common excuses that employees offer in these enquiries, is that they either didn't know about a rule (see a previous blog entry 'Disciplinary Enquiries: Awareness of Workplace Rules' on how to combat this) or that the rule hasn't been applied consistently across the board. The accused employee will complain that so-and-so also did xyz and nothing happened to them, or they were merely issued with a written warning or some lesser sanction.
This book will be officially out by 20 December 2009 in the USA and Canada. The following is a synopsis of the book:
About this book-------------------
My latest book on leadership, This book will give you a good feel of leadership styles across the African continent: From the late Big Dad Idi Amin to Robert Mugabe: from the late Mwalimu Nyerere to Ian Khama: from Cape to Cairo, the leaders that shaped out current political landscape, dead or alive. I have profiled them, compared their styles, their shortcomings, their ruthlessness, their power to build and destroy and their love and hurt of other human beings. This book will be available on Google Books under Dr John Chibaya Mbuya from January 2010.
I will be sharing my experience as a writer in South Africa for the past 10 years. The problems I have experienced as an author. How I have been victimized by many so called bosses. How I have managed to break into the American book market by sheer hard work. How I have managed to sell 500 000 books in three months. How I have made my first US5 000 000 dollar as an author. How my life has changed from a worker to a Boss in a few months. If I could make it in America during the peak of the recession. You can do better than that!
