Synopsis

This extraordinary book provides insights and practical tools to help you navigate everyday human interactions, balance your own and others’ needs and utilise your emotions to create a more ful lling life. Drawing on decades of experience, Alan McLean argues persuasively that it is identity, not personality, which is the key to personal growth. The powerful insights readers glean from ‘McLean’s Ring’ are not only helpful for parents, teachers and leaders they are also essential for anyone aiming to encourage others to grow and develop as individuals. Alan McLean is the author of The Motivated School and Motivating Every Learner and his work on motivation is of interest to educationalists worldwide. Until 2011 Alan was a Principal Psychologist in Glasgow City Council and the creator of various staff development programmes including Promoting Positive Behaviour and the award winning Bullyproofing our School. In recent years his research focus has widened beyond motivation to human development. This book is number 11 in the Postcards from Scotland series.
