Synopsis
This book describes how companies of all types can achieve even greater success--measured not by volume or profits, but by the quality of life for employees and the quality service for customers. Today's business world is characterized by increasing change--technological, cultural, social, economic, and personal--the net effect of which is increasing anxiety, insecurity, and more pressure than perhaps ever before on today's employees, managers, and business owners.
Managing By Values provides a practical, proven new solution for addressing these issues. Ken Blanchard and Michael O'Connor provide a framework for stability, continuity, and growth in the midst of these challenges.
Written in the simple, direct story format that has become a trademark of Ken Blanchard's previous books, this book builds on the mass of diverse research, experiences, and literature on organizational, group, and individual performance and satisfaction. Based on the authors' research and applied real-world experience with client organizations, Managing By Values provides a practical, proven approach for how to give your organization the gift of a promising future while also discovering a way for all of its stakeholders to be satisfied in the process.
