Recommendation
Some business executives go out of their way to be mean to their employees. Just watch real-estate magnate Donald Trump on The Apprentice, a TV show where young entrepreneurs do their best not to be fired ignominiously by the scowling mogul. Trump does everything possible to demean the show’s eager participants. Or take the late billionaire New York City hotel owner Leona Helmsley: She was the hated “Queen of Mean.” She once ordered an employee to get on his knees and beg for his job. She served 19 months in prison for tax evasion and her will designated more money to her dog than to any one of her grandchildren. In contrast, take author Jack Mitchell, CEO of a popular Connecticut retail clothing firm. He believes in treating employees with courtesy, consideration and respect. In this book, he explains why this approach is good business. Maybe the corporate world should immediately replace its soulless sourpusses with warmhearted business leaders like Mitchell. getAbstract recommends reading his book to learn how to run a profitable business while treating your employees with honor and dignity.
