Los Angeles, April 23, 2002 – “Are you willing to employ a new workplace paradigm where you contribute your best efforts in a superior work environment?” asks Rosalene Glickman, Ph.D., who is based in Beverly Hills, California. Dr. Glickman has been honored as Australia’s Most Successful Woman, and voted “Woman of the Year” for National Business Women’s Week in Hollywood. In her new book, Optimal Thinking: How to Be Your Best Self (Wiley, 2002), she asks us to transform our workplace into OptiBiz – that is, an Optimal workplace.
At OptiBiz, the employees optimize — rather than improve or manage — talents, opportunities, resources, productivity, profitability and performance. They ask Optimal questions like:
· What is my/the vision of the Optimal workplace?
· How can I best express my talents in the workplace?
· How can I make the most of my work situation today/this week?
· How can I minimize the weaknesses of my work situation today/this week?
· Is this the best I/you can do?
· What can I do to bring out the best in my colleagues?
· What is the best action I/you can take under the circumstances?
· What is the most productive use of my/your time right now?
Implementing the best answers to Optimal questions, Dr. Glickman suggests, will turn employees into optimizers, managers into senior optimizers, and AnyBiz (a typical workplace) into OptiBiz.
Rosalene Glickman, Ph.D. is the creator and author of Optimal Thinking, hailed by academia and the media as “the successor to positive thinking” and “the basis of personal and professional optimization.”
Dr. Glickman is President of The World Academy of Personal Development Inc., a Beverly Hills, California training and consulting firm. Since 1980, she has provided consultation and training for individuals and organizations including Warner Bros., Mercedes-Benz, California State University, Fullerton (School of Business Administration), Mensa, National Australia Bank, Dow Chemical, Century 21 Real Estate, The Australian Society of Accountants, and Mary Kay Cosmetics.
Dr. Glickman has been repeatedly honored by the media as “Australia’s Most Successful Woman.” In 1997, Dr. Glickman was the recipient of the “Woman of the Year” award for National Business Women’s Week in Hollywood. She has also been nominated for special recognition by Queen Elizabeth II for Australia’s highest award, The Order of Australia. This Optimal woman is a seasoned print and electronic media interviewee. Born in Australia, Dr. Glickman lives in Los Angeles. She has earned a Ph.D. in Psychology, a Teaching diploma and a degree in Business Administration.
