Book Description
Improve performance at every level of your organization! Millions of employees and managers go to work every day without the proper training and support to do their jobs efficiently. To operate effectively and stay ahead of the competition, your organization must have a competitive and well-trained workforce. Jack Bowsher links all the pieces of a successful management system together into an easy six-step process. His innovative system integrates the best of OD, training, performance consulting, performance technology, and integrated electronic support systems. At an organization that achieves Bowsher's leaning "mastery,"everyone will be a top-level performer! Among other reforms, Bowsher proposes establishing a performance system within every major job category. In his book, Bowsher includes a special short "executive summary" that can be used to convince an organization's executives to implement all of these performance-boosting initiatives.
