5.0 out of 5 stars a must read, January 3, 2012
This review is from: Indispensable Employees (Paperback)
I've had this book on the shelf for some time and finally got around to reading it. This is a book that everyone who manages people should read. What's great about it, it that Ms. Fields correctly points out the interconnectedness of organizations with the community and approaches the hiring and retention process strategically. The tools and company spotlights are also very helpful. Thank you for this gift. My employees will benefit.

5.0 out of 5 stars maximize your human resources capital, September 16, 2008
This review is from: Indispensable Employees (Paperback)
Martha knows whereof she speaks, she is always on the cutting edge of business and people issues. To maximize your human resources capital, buy and devour and digest this book. It puts a perspective back into the management equation that got lost somehow along the way. The adjective in the title of this book says it all: indispenable!
