Description
Even the most well thought out initiatives will fail without true employee ownership, accountability, and engagement. Yet most managers and executives don't have a clear system for ensuring the support they need from those around them. The Power of Strategic Commitment helps readers improve their strategic processes by enlisting the support of managers, employees, boards, suppliers, investors, and others. The book outlines the key factors that determine commitment, providing powerful ways to build buy-in that cost nothing. Readers will discover how to:
*
continuously measure buy-in
* involve everyone in creating their own piece of a larger organizational future
* tailor commitment strategies for individual employees
* keep everyone on the road to achieving stated goals
* create a commitment-inspiring rewards system
* hire fully-engaged talent
This book provides practical methods for getting everyone behind the kind of important organizational actions that drive results.
