HOW TO BECOME A GREAT BOSS The Rules for Getting and Keeping the Best Employees

Employment is a contract with obligations on both sides. Fox's articulate presentation of values and principles focuses on the vital process of staffing and managing an organization. Hiring people, managing them, and firing them when they need to go are core executive functions that often are ignored in today's information-obsessed corporations. Fox's insights are grounded in age-old conflicts between ego and results, partnership and competition, self and organization. His primer on evaluating an employee's performance, attitude, and priorities is a common sense guide to communicating and socializing when you're the boss. An essential guide on what matters in management. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC 02/ JAN 03]
