## Description

The Inner Game of Work: Focus, Learning, Pleasure, and Mobility in the Workplace [Gallwey, W. Timothy] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Inner Game of Work: Focus, Learning, Pleasure, and Mobility in the Workplace

Review: Incredible - I really enjoyed this book. I have a feeling it will take me years to fully appreciate the deep lessons it imparts, even though understanding them was easy. I also liked The Inner Game of Tennis, but this one was more applicable to more people, since so many people work. It isn't full of answers or neat prescriptions, nor claim that it's just a matter of following a patented formula. This book offers tools, ways of finding answers more quickly. Highly recommended for anyone seeking the deeper meaning behind work, which is a worthy pursuit, since it is the single activity we spend the most time doing.
Review: Reflects Author's Evolving Thoughts On The Inner Game Of Work (And Everything Else) - I admit have not read the author's classic, The Inner Game of Tennis. Instead, I chose to order TIGOW because I thought the groundbreaking concepts in TIGOT would not only be repeated in the former but that the former would reflect the author's evolving understanding of inner games. After all, many years had gone by since the publication of the later. Having completed TIGOW, I have no reason to believe that I was wrong. Anyway, TIGOW is excellent. Reading it will almost certainly help your inner game. I have nothing to add to what other people have said about the book. Except that the story the author relates concerning the class he took as a Havard undergrad featuring then professor B.F. Skinner demonstrating the power of operant conditioning on a pigeon subject has stayed with me. That story alone might be worth the price of the book for those who understand much of its chilling and not-so-chilling implications. Get the book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Strong start, slow middle, good advice
*by C***Y on February 7, 2024*

Some useful core lessons, though the writer seemed to be spinning his wheels a bit after a few chapters and the end seemed like it would never end. The mindfulness principles are well applied with lots of examples. Even though I'm not in sales, I could relate it to my field because he's so specific. I was a bit baffled by his directly naming for criticism people who gave him access to the inner workings of their (by his analysis) flawed company culture, yet leaving anonymous this one person he praises and credits with near godlike teachings.
