He has over 25 years of experience training professionals and executives. Effective leaders need strong communication skills, including listening, asking questions, coaching, and interviewing. Leaders should see themselves as coaches and focus on connecting with and understanding their people. Salespeople need to improve their listening and questioning skills to better understand customer needs before pitching solutions. They should ask how the customer wants the conversation to go and tailor their approach. Authentic leadership requires transparency, candid conversations, and vulnerability. Leaders should have one-on-one talks with employees to build trust and understand their perspectives. Self-reflection is critical but often lacking. Leaders need self-awareness to improve and “know better, do better.” Looking in the mirror and seeing what others see is important. Buying styles differ. Salespeople should identify each customer’s preferences upfront and adapt accordingly. Some want to get right to business while others prefer more discussion first. Servant leadership means working for employees by coaching and motivating them, not kowtowing. The servant leader mindset is to provide what’s needed to elevate people. Paul offers training workshops and keynotes on connecting, selling, leadership, communication, interviewing, negotiation, coaching, and listening/questioning skills. His website is paulbramson.com.

The Little Book of Exoplanets by Joshua N. Winn https://amzn.to/3KZUfzS A concise and accessible introduction to exoplanets that explains the cutting-edge science behind recent discoveries For centuries, people have speculated about the possibility of planets orbiting distant stars, but only since the 1990s has technology allowed astronomers to detect them. At this point, more than five thousand such exoplanets have been identified, with the pace of discovery accelerating after the launch of NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and the Webb Space Telescope. In The Little Book of Exoplanets, Princeton astrophysicist Joshua Winn offers a brief and engaging introduction to the search for exoplanets and the cutting-edge science behind recent findings. In doing so, he chronicles the dawn of a new age of discovery―one that has rapidly transformed astronomy and our broader understanding of the universe. Scientists now know that many Sun-like stars host their own systems of planets, some of which may resemble our solar system and include planets similar to the Earth. But, Winn tells us, the most remarkable discoveries so far have been of planets with unexpected and decidedly un-Earth-like properties, which have upended what we thought we knew about the origins of planetary systems. Winn provides an inside view of the sophisticated detective work astronomers perform as they find and study exoplanets and describes the surprising―sometimes downright bizarre―planets and systems they have found. He explains how these discoveries are revolutionizing astronomy, and he explores the current status and possible future of the search for another Earth. Finally, drawing on his own and other scientists’ work, he considers how the discovery of exoplanets and their faraway solar systems changes our perspectives on the universe and our place in it.
