Why Do I Need To Matter

Description

ABOUT THE BOOK

People in their multiple roles try to prove what they are not. The book is an extensive description with conceptual depth supported by interesting live-case examples. Knowing that one knows may render a bloated ego, an assumption that he alone matters. It creates a big balloon of egocentric self, and soon it kills humility and sublimation relatively quiescent in a person. The sense of mattering is rooted deep in our unresolved issues of authority and power in different roles and relationships as group process facilitators or change leaders and coaches.
The book portrays a classic paradox of poor self-work while acquiring expertise with high pedagogical skills. We may get obsessed with our projected self-confidence with invisible power. We learn to live in false pride for years until we choose to see the wrinkles on our faces in the mirror. More profound concepts or cognitive mapping would strengthen learners’ foundation, which is missing in small-group professional learning programs worldwide. The book is a masterpiece creation of our compelling inner journey and self-reflection as a learner, trainers, and change leaders to discover why we need to matter in our work and social space.
