Book Synopsis

Weâve all been there. We are in a working group or at a meeting, discussing a topic or a challenge, and all the while, as a separate track running underneath our conversation, there is a subtext that no one explicitly addresses.

This is an example of âthe elephant in the room.â Most of us notice the elephant, it gets in the way, and itâs difficult to deal with until someone points at it and says, âThere it is, letâs take a look at it and reduce its impact.â With an engaging use of examples and questions, Lotte Svalgaard addresses how we can best deal with the elephant and thus promote job satisfaction, creativity and productivity. In the context of action, what we notice often recedes into the background and gradually slips out of focus until we eventually reconnect with our need to reflect and recreate a space for it. This book addresses the challenge of focusing on, holding on to and acting on what we notice âin the middle of it allâ. Maintaining a simultaneous focus on task
