inspirational jobs smell
One of the jobs of a manager is to instill confidence, pump confidence into your people. And when you've got somebody who's raring to go and you can smell it and feel it, give 'em that shot.
team winning achievement
Celebrating creates an atmosphere of recognition and positive energy. Imagine a team winning the World Series without champagne spraying everywhere. And yet companies win all the time and let it go without so much as a high five. Work is too much a part of life not to recognize moments of achievement. Make a big deal out of them. If you don't, no one will.
stars team eight
Ideally, the star will be replaced within eight hours. This sends the message that no single individual is bigger than the company.
team winning player
The team with the best players usually does win - this is why you need to invest the majority of your time and energy in developing your people.
inspirational reputation bigs
If you have a reputation as a big, stiff bureaucracy, you're stuck.
inspirational believe thinking
The essence of competitiveness is liberated when we make people believe that what they think and do is important - and then get out of their way while they do it.
running cash-flow satisfaction
If I had to run a company on three measures, those measures would be customer satisfaction, employee satisfaction and cash flow.
strategy results employee
Shareholder value is a result, not a strategy . . . Your main constituencies are your employees, your customers and your products.
team skills long
Managers often hold on to resisters because of a specific skill set or because they've been around for a long time. Don't.
motivational lying creativity
We know where most of the creativity, the innovation, the stuff that drives productivity lies - in the minds of those closest to the work.
inspirational opportunity top-management
If you pick the right people and give them the opportunity to spread their wings and put compensation as a carrier behind it you almost don't have to manage them.
team self-confidence opportunity
Leaders relentlessly upgrade their team, using every encounter as an opportunity to evaluate, coach, and build self-confidence.
important killers apps
HR should be every company's killer app. What could possibly be more important than who gets hired?
jobs challenges inspire
No one can guarantee you a job other than satisfied customers. That's the only thing that works. Nothing creates work other than products and services you provide that create satisfied customers.
