Mark Murphy
Hundred Percenters
Challenge Your Employees to Give It Their All, and They'll Give You Even More
McGraw-Hill, 2009
What's inside?
Turn 50% performers into 100% committed employees by harnessing motivation, communication and the power of hard goals.
Recommendation
Some business books are obvious, trite and unexceptional. You can learn more reading a soup can label. On first blush, Mark Murphy’s book might seem just that ordinary, with its cover’s exhortations to “challenge your employees to give it their all, and they’ll give you even more.” Warning: Do not roll your eyes. Murphy is a leadership expert and his thoroughly researched book is actually brimming with discernment and acute analysis. Using imaginative language that will hold your attention, he presents a multistep program for turning average achievers into exceptional performers, or, in his words, “Hundred Percenters.” getAbstract recommends Murphy’s solid counsel. Read his book if you supervise people and want to motivate their best performance every day.
