The authors of the bestsellers <i>The Carrot Principle</i> and <i>The Orange Revolution</i> present groundbreaking new findings: In the highest-performing teams and companies, managers create a “culture of belief,” following seven essential steps of leadership. To have any hope of succeeding as a manager, you need to get your people <i>all in</i>. Whether you manage the smallest of teams or a multi-continent organization, you are the owner of a work culture—congratulations—and few things will have a bigger impact on your performance than getting your people to buy into your ideas and your cause and to believe what they do matters. Bestselling authors of <i>The Carrot Principle </i>and <i>The Orange Revolution, </i>Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton return to answer the most overlooked leadership questions of our day: Why are some managers able to get their employees to commit wholeheartedly to their culture and give that extra push that leads to outstanding results? And how can managers at any level build and sustain a profitable, vibrant work-group culture of their own? These leading workplace experts teamed up with research giant Towers Watson to analyze an unprecedented 300,000-person study, and they made a groundbreaking finding: managers of the highest-performing work groups create a “culture of belief.” In these distinctive workplaces, people <i>believe </i>in their leaders and in the company’s vision, values, and goals. Employees are not only engaged but also enabled and energized (termed the three Es), which leads to astonishing results—average annual revenues three times higher than for organizations lacking such a positive culture. And this was true during a period that included this most recent recession. Based on their extensive consulting experience and in-depth interviews with leaders and employees at exceptional companies such as American Express, Cigna, Avis Budget, Pepsi Bottling, and Hard Rock, the authors present a simple seven-step road map for creating a culture of belief: define a burning platform; create a customer focus; develop agility; share everything; partner with your talent; root for each other; and establish clear accountability. Delving into specific how-tos for each step, they share eye-opening stories of exceptional leaders in action, vividly depicting just how these powerful methods can be implemented by any manager. <i>All In </i>draws on cutting-edge psychology and all of the creative genius that have made Gostick and Elton a must-read for leaders worldwide. This vital resource will empower managers everywhere to inspire a new level of commitment and performance.

Offers insight into the corporate cultures of high-performance organizations to explain the importance of engaged employees in business success, outlining a seven-step plan for managers to facilitate high-achieving teams

The authors shows that breakthrough success is guided by a particular breed of high-performing team that generates its own momentum, an engaged group of colleagues in the trenches, working passionately together to pursue a shared vision. They have determined a key set of characteristics displayed by members of breakthrough teams, and have identified a set of rules great teams live by, which generate a culture of positive teamwork and lead to extraordinary results. Using a wealth of specific stories from the breakthrough teams they studied, they reveal in detail how these teams operate and how managers can transform their own teams into such high performers.--[book jacket]

The business sector today is witnessing a real crisis: the "invisible employee." This is the employee who feels threatened, ignored, and unappreciated, and thus only responds in the way they know how: by staying in the shadows, doing just enough work to keep their job, complaining about this and that, and passing on these attitudes to newcomers. They work with the mindset: "Why should I strive and excel if my achievements will go unnoticed? Why should I bother trying at all when the company might let me go in its next plan?" In this book, managers will learn how to overcome one of the most common negative behaviors at work: that intelligent employees prefer safety, perform their tasks quietly, and never do more than what is required of them. The renowned authors Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton explain how competent managers can change this mentality by engaging employees in the development of their companies; by setting clear goals, encouraging productive behaviors, and celebrating every success achieved along the way. As a result, the ultimate outcome is that the organization will have productive employees who feel they are valued and appreciated; in other words, they feel "visible."

Kleine Schläge auf den Hinterkopf erhöhen ja bekanntlich das Denkvermögen. Dieses Sprichwort kennen wir alle – und wissen im Prinzip auch alle, dass das nicht immer stimmt. Wie falsch es ist, auf diese Regel im Berufleben zu vertrauen, das beweist uns jetzt das Autorenduo Adrian Gostick und Chester Elton. Basierend auf einer 10-jährigen Untersuchung mit mehr als 200 000 Managern und Mitarbeitern, haben die Autoren ein leicht umzusetzendes Managementkonzept entwickelt – und gleichzeitig bewiesen, dass Anerkennung und konstruktive Kritik die Eckpfeiler eines erfolgreichen Managementstils sind. Wie eng Produktivität, Engagement, Konstanz und Kundenzufriedenheit mit der Mitarbeiterzufriedenheit zusammenhängen, erklärt dieses Buch. Die Anerkennung der Leistungen von Mitarbeitern, im Buch bildlich durch Karotten symbolisiert, spielt dabei eine wichtige Rolle. Das „Karottenprinzip“ zeigt in leicht umzusetzenden Schritten wie einfach es ist, den Mitarbeitern diese Wertschätzung zu zeigen – und auch, dass sie nicht immer finanziell ausgedrückt werden muss.
