Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
The core of this book offers insight into the answers to the often asked question in a downsizing environment of who stays and who goes when the choice is between two equally competent employees. Podesta and Gatz, through their research of CEOs, business owners, managers, human resources directors, and supervisors in a variety of companies, have developed a set of high-performance abilities that are expected from employees. These abilities include taking charge of one's personal life, demonstrating value added, having a positive impact on one's company and customers and colleagues, embracing and initiating change, working harder and smarter and faster and better, communicating openly and directly, looking for leadership opportunities, and committing to lifelong learning. We learn that meaningful employment does not refer to what the job is but to how that job is done in terms of an employee's commitment to quality, dependability, integrity, and treating others with respect. We are told that the future belongs to those with focus and flexibility, those who are team players and also energized risk takers. Mary Whaley --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
