Synopsis

What does it really take to get productivity from people and, by doing so, maximum profits for your business?

With a nod to Jeff Bezos, Steve Jobs, Walt Disney, and other ruthless yet highly successful managers, Dan S. Kennedy delivers the answer. In this new edition, Kennedy expands on his proven (if radical) strategies to get accountability, profitability, and productivity from employees.

In his traditional No B.S. style, Kennedy kicks traditional leadership and management ideas squarely in the teeth with a realistic, straightforward assessment of the real relationship between business owners and their employees. Uncompromising strategies help managers gain iron-fisted control and get the results they demand. This take-no-prisoners advice liberates entrepreneurs to act in their best interests and insist on implementation of their objectives. And it leads to a cooperative, high-performance team when traditional textbook methods fail. Topics include learning how to hire profitable employees, taking home as much money as possible, making every employee's job a profit center, managing the powerful force of word of mouth, compressing the time between idea and action for maximum profits, and posing questions to individuals that force them to think and improve productivity.

Goodreads review by Jeffrey on June 24, 2008

Anything Kennedy must be read . . . and read . . . and read . . . and read. If you don't know by now that the world has changed and that a "job" with a pension (read non-existent) and company retirement vehicles (read the company no longer does it for you) are no longer viable when you'll need rough......more

Almost too practical. Some good ideas but also could be used as an excuse for being inhumane to workers.......more
