Recommendation

Given layoffs, downsizing, delayed promotions, mergers, tardy raises, and more, contemporary organizations face challenges that make this a difficult time to manage employees. You can make one mistake and end up as the villain in an expensive civil suit that an upset current or former employee – or even by a professional plaintiff masquerading as an employee – files against your company. Seasoned HR professional Paul Falcone, who passionately advocates the importance of HR’s role, presents 75 proven tactics – selectively sampled here – for managing and inspiring employees while motivating loyalty and performance.

Falcone’s description of his book is apt; it is, as he says, a “consultant in a box.”

Great workforces fuel great companies, just as inferior employees can make even good companies inferior. The leadership you provide as a manager determines what kind of people work for your company. Strong leaders create positive work environments in which their teams thrive and shine. Weak leaders create problems and hurt the employees who work for them.

    It's sad the book mentions litigation issues a lot. It feels less authentic that way. Like you have to act a certain way to avoid litigation. A lot of books talk about servant leadership, but nothing exact. All in all it's just a conservative book, just like Three.
