Description du livre
The goal of speed reading is learning to read information faster without affecting your ability to understand it. In this book, you’ll learn a wide variety of strategies to boost your reading speed. The beginning will discuss setting up a plan for speed reading before going into the strategies. You’ll learn what you are doing wrong, which skills to build on, and ultimately how to use speed reading in a way that benefits your life.
While you will naturally improve as you continually practice speed reading, the strategies do not require any extra equipment or skills. You will learn how to test your current reading speed, as well as what you are doing that might be impeding your efforts. You will learn the strategies you need to succeed and which habits to stop if you want to be a speed reader.
This comprehensive guide will teach you:
•The unique tools systems thinkers have developed that allow you to recognize systems and understand how all their parts work together
•How systems respond to changing conditions and how they can adjust on their own
•How to use diagrams to illustrate common problem patterns that systems thinkers have shown crop up repeatedly in business, politics, and personal life
•How you can optimise the systems around you and become more successful in your professional and everyday life
Systems thinking has become an invaluable tool for private and not-for-profit organisations. It is an approach to problem-solving that is grounded on the principle that we are surrounded by interconnected systems. Practically anything can be looked at as a system: the people we live with, the company we work for, and the community we reside in. Systems thinkers understand that problems in these systems cannot be solved in isolation.
