Total copies: 3
¿́¿How do organisations move beyond merely acknowledging that ¿́¿human capital¿́¿ is their greatest asset, and actually implement practices that create true benefits for both employees and the organisations? In this book, Edward Lawler shows how companies can ¿́¿treat people right¿́¿ by doing more than simply ensuring good working conditions and good pay. He shows how to build a special relationship between individuals and the organizations they work for ¿́¿ a relationship in which good performance at all levels of the organisation pays off for both the company and the individual. The author details specific practices designed to keep employees satisfied but still motivated to continue improving their performance. These techniques include: developing a ¿́¿brand¿́¿ as an employer that attracts high achievers, selecting and developing the high achievers, crafting a leadership style that integrates and promotes these actions, and more.¿́¿ -- SAF Professional Reading Programme, 4th Edition - STAGE II: CPT 2 to MAJ 1 & MWO-SWO.
