Synopsis
Managing employees in today's rapidly evolving workplace can sometimes feel like negotiating a minefield. Such recent new trends as flextime, telecommting, 360-degree feedback, the flattening of hierarchies, and the increased use of temps and contract workers present tough new challenges for supervisors in every field. This timely, completely revised and updated edition of Ferdinand Fournies's classic management coaching "bible" shows you proven ways to get workers to perform at the highest level while eliminating the self-destructive kinds of behaviors that have become increasingly prevalent in recent years. In this book, you'll be taught specific face-to-face interventions you can use to enhance performance in every kind of workplace situation--from sales to creative brainstorming. There are also interventions uniquely suited to resolving problems ranging from low productivity to absenteeism to conflicts between individuals. You'll learn precisely what to say and do so that each person you supervise will want to give you his or her best work--even when that person was previously thought to be a "problem employee." Packed with brand-new case studies from Fournies's latest research into the dynamics of the modern workplace, this classic guide takes all the guesswork out of becoming the kind of inspired, "hands-on" manager that every company today is looking for, Managing employees in today's rapidly evolving workplace can sometimes feel like negotiating a minefield.

    Great and honest seller! Item exactly as described, securely packaged, GREAT value for the price, very fast shipping. (On the shipper's end, postal service sat on the package for 5 whole days, could've hired an Amish guy and it would have gotten here faster, but that is NOT the shipper's fault.) Couldn't be more pleased, and grateful, for their level of service. 10 of 10 would do business with them again! Thank you!!

    Excellent service!! Arrived before expected and in perfect condition, as described. Securely packaged, the best price on all WWW and a most valuable item to add in my collection. Warm and kind seller, always alert for anything I might need. And, I might say, a very nice detail on the Thank You note. Hope to do business with you again in the future to contribute to your welfare. Thanks for everything, my kind friend. Be well. :)

    Items were exactly as pictured and exactly as described in the listing. Quickly shipped and took great care in the packaging . Seller made a mistake and lowered the price too much so when I purchased and got an amazing deal, the seller honored the transaction and stayed true to their word. I highly recommend this eBay shop. A++++++ honest seller. I look forward to buying more from them in the future.
