I have read many books that speak about motivating employees, empowering them, connecting with them etc… But they all seem to be lacking “something”. That extra edge. I am sure I will re-read this when I have even more time but for now the author touches on some excellent ideas such as really valuing your employees. In this book he not only provides examples and suggestions but also asks you questions to help reflect and personalize some of the information. I work in education and we need innovation and employee engagement just as much as any other business – in fact probably even more with how much we are expected to do to meet the needs of children. It isn’t just about education anymore – it is about making sure they have food, clothes, medical care, making sure they are safe and then and only then can we educate them. Excellent book and many ideas to ponder…
I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
