A Counterintuitive Approach to Living a Good LifeAs the title suggests, Manson wants his book to stand out from the usual life advice books. Because these usually emphasize what you could or should achieve - higher, faster, further (see, for example, the book "How to achieve more"). Game Changers). The downside, however, is that you are made very aware of what you have not achieved so far. You haven't achieved this or that, you're not exceptional. And the usual (American?) life guides are all aimed at helping you to finally be extraordinary and achieve all your goals.
In his book, Manson shows a different path to personal success. The book is also available in German ("The subtle art of shitting on it“ view at Amazon), but with this book in particular it should be almost impossible to convey the "spirit" of the book correctly in German. While "to give a fuck" is ambiguous in English and the author uses the expression creatively, that alone is difficult in German. Let's see if I have succeeded.

Christian Scholz: Generation Z. What makes them tick, what changes them and why they infect us all.
If you look at generations, you constantly stumble across two names: Klaus Hurrelmann (Shell Study) and Christian Scholz. That's why a brief insight into the second author's book is essential, especially because I personally rate it as excellent. If I had to choose between all the works on Generation Z, I would pick this one.
Youth 2019 - 18th Shell Youth Study: A generation speaks out. By Click on the image to view the book on Amazon. By Mathias Albert, Klaus Hurrelmann, Gudrun Quenzel et al.
This is actually a classic when it comes to finding out what makes "young people" tick. The big advantage: it is a long-term study, i.e. the authors can compare their data over time and thus present developments and trends very well. For this reason, the study is also one of my main sources for the lectures.
Generation Z for HR managers and executives by Rüdiger Maas. Brief insights into the book. This article is recommended for anyone who would like to deepen their knowledge from my presentation or would like to review or rework some things. It is of course also suitable for newcomers who are not familiar with the lecture and are interested in Generation Z.
Rüdiger Maas' book on Generation Z is characterized in particular by the fact that the author always gets to the point quickly. The book is therefore ideal for anyone who has little time, i.e. as the title suggests, especially HR managers and executives ;-). I read the entire book in just under 2 hours, including the foreword and bibliography.

Smarter, faster and happier - the best life hacks from the 450 most extraordinary leaders, lateral thinkers and gurus. The 46 laws of success. Insights into: "Game Changers" by Dave Asprey.
What attitudes or habits do highly effective people have?
Insights into: "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Powerful lessons in personal change." by Stephen R. Covey. Also available in German.
Absolutely worth reading, the author guides you well through his book and cleverly forces you to think about yourself. And he focuses on the individual - whether employee or manager, friend or family member. If you have already dealt with the topics of leadership and self-organization, some things will seem familiar. However, these are often placed in a very interesting context (e.g. Eisenhower 2.0).
How to achieve big effects and goals with small changes.
