Description

By Stephen P. Robbins

This book offers real solutions for the make-or-break problems faced by every manager. You'll learn how to overcome the true obstacles to teamwork, why too much communication can be as dangerous as too little, how to improve your hiring and employee evaluations, how to heal "layoff survivor sickness," and even how to develop charisma.

Discover:
� The truth about building winning teams and designing high-productivity jobs
� The truth about why �happy� employees aren�t always more productive
� The (surprising) truth about what behaviors you really want to reward

�The premiere writer of management textbooks has sifted through the research to extract the truths every manager should know. This book is an antidote for the unsupported opinions handed out in many popular management books.�
- Kenneth W. Thomas, Professor of Management, Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California, author of Intrinsic Motivation at Work

�A prolific scholar and writer, Robbins cuts through the research and theory to deliver immediately useful and essential insights for the effective management of people.�
- Eric G. Stephan, Professor, Organizational Leadership & Strategy, Marriott School of Management, Brigham Young University
