Managing with Carrots : Using Recognition to Attract and Retain the Best People
This book has been most insightful. I find that it re-inforced some of the tools I have already put in place as well gave me many more ideas. Managing Staff does not have to be ridget and cold, including them in dession making does not make you weak but strengthens your own work ethics.
Managaing with Carrots teaces you that your Staff are functionable by their own talents, and how to reconize them as well as acknowledge what they are concretly, to them, your staff, the pillers of your company.
I would like to also add that this book was very readable and short enough to keep you reading, long enough to inform you throughly. Rating: 4 / 5
“Managing with Carrots” is a supurb tool for every CEO, manager, or HR department. It’s filled with practical ideas that will build a loyal, dedicated workforce. I’m recommending this book to everyone in business… everyone that is, EXCEPT our competition! Rating: 5 / 5
Though this book may at first seem narrowly tailored for the business management market, I found it helpful as a middle school teacher in generating new ideas on how to extend and develop my own student recognition program. Using frequent examples, sidebars and graphic information, Gostick and Elton help identify what so many employees and students are hungry for in today’s sometimes anonymous society, appreciation for one’s efforts. Recommended for leaders of any organization. Rating: 4 / 5
