Recommendation

For CEOs, human-resource staff members and anyone who influences the development of an organization’s disciplinary system, this book is a must-read. Managers, supervisors and small-business owners also will benefit from Dick Grote’s guidance on implementing a nonpunitive approach to improved performance. getAbstract appreciates the thoughtfulness and detail of his suggested disciplinary system, as well as his advice on incorporating this system into your daily management practices.

Take-Aways

  • Don’t use an arbitrary system of punishment that treats your employees like criminals.
  • Use a positive approach to recognize good employees and to deal with performance problems.
  • Focus your managerial time and energy on good employees, not the troublesome minority.
