 By Richard Chang and Paul DeYoung One of the most common reasons an organizational improvement effort does not reach its full potential is because different parts of an organization use different measures to drive and gauge the results of their efforts. The solution? A systematic approach in which measures at the work group level are closely linked to "big picture" targets and measures at the organizational level. This guidebook shows you how to use Key Result Areas (KRAs) and Key Indicators (KIs) to successfully measure organizational improvement at every level of the organization. (Paperback)

Value-Based Management (VBM) is steadily growing in popularity around the world, providing significant benefits to many companies. But the race to create even more value is far from over. The new frontier is Value-Based Leadership (VBL), which looks to the future rather than the past, addressing growth, innovation and entrepreneurship.

"Tempered radicals" are people who want to succeed in their organization, yet also live by values or identities that might be at odds with their organization's primary culture.

Southwest Airlines started with a simple idea, and managed to stick with it through decades of unprecedented growth. Many have tried (but failed) to emulate their success. According to Colleen Barrett, the idea is so simple, nobody quite believes it: customers return because they like the experience and they like the way they are treated. But how do you keep your customers this satisfied? By keeping your employees satisfied. Barrett spends 70-80% of her time assuring that her employees are valued as people, and encouraged to do the right thing rather than doing things right. She acknowledges that you can't expect employees to be saints, but you can expect integrity and commitment to the team. Her guiding rule is to hire on attitude and then train for skills, seeking individuals who will take the business—but not themselves—seriously. $99.99 [Add to Cart]
What can leaders do to regain trust? This DVD provides realistic methods for rebuilding trust and reestablishing employee involvement.

And without trust, leadership is not possible. Includes: Comprehensive 28 page leader's guide with reproducible worksheet.
