Recommendation

Companies want their managers to feel committed to their work. Managers want companies to let them live their values. Author Stan Slap says they’re both right, and both goals are achievable. But when companies restrict managers, their performance suffers. And when managers tune out, they hurt the bottom line. In this inspirational book, Slap offers a solution designed to bring them together in a corporate culture that humanely supports the values of both the managers and the company.

Summary

Most managers don’t get to live their values on the job. This is recognized by managers in a bad company but unrealized in a good one.

Every company knows what it wants most from its managers: emotional commitment. This is worth more than financial, intellectual and physical commitment combined, and it translates into managers taking on company success like a personal crusade. Managers all know what they want most from their company: the ability to live their own deepest values at work, achieving success by leveraging who they are, not by compromising it. Living personal values in a relationship or environment is the source of any human being’s emotional commitment; for managers this means the relationship with their company and the environment at work.

And yet, a company stops its managers from giving what it wants most and managers stop themselves from getting what they want most. Now you can confront this chronic problem – relentlessly, practically and persuasively by using a unique and well-proven process that gains a company its greatest performance and reliable security, and gives managers success and fulfillment – without compromising...
