Produktbeschreibung
In our work lives when something isnt working, we struggle with what part of the problem to tackle first. Do we start with cost reduction? What about morale? Or should we go for process improvements first? We pick the problem to work on, and depending on whether our plan makes sense, one of two things happens.  First, we failand then we add frustration to our list of problems. Two, we succeed, and then some new problem pops out to replace the old. We cut 10% out of our budget, and our star performers leave in frustration because we sliced what they saw as a critical program. Its as though the system were working on is an old inner tube. The moment we patch one hole and add pressure, another spot tears open. The point is that its possible to change everything at once. Seem far fetched? Zaffron and Logan make a compelling argument that executives spend their time and money adjusting the systems in which people operate rather than targeting people's performance directly. When the three laws in this book are applied, performance transforms to a level far beyond what most people think is possible. These laws are: 1. How people perform correlates to how situations occur to them. 2. How a situation occurs arises from language. 3. Future-based language transforms how situations occur to people. Steve Zaffron has helped hundreds of companies envision and effectively implement major change and performance improvement. He presents a proven system for rallying all of an organization's employees around a new vision, and more importantly, making it stick. The focus is on making such transformations permanent and repeatable, providing practical examples from clients such as Apple, Lockheed Martin, Johnson & Johnson, Morgan Stanley, and many others.

Rezensionen
"The Three Laws of Performance provides a list of rules (andstories explaining how they work in practice) that promise to helpindividuals in leadership roles facilitate the group coherence andcohesion that are necessary to bring about transcendentperformance. The book is based on a wealth of experience fromdecades of applying the ideas it explains. If you're interested inthis kind of theory, the book is worth a read."(BrokenSymmetry.typepad.com)

"I received an email a few weeks ago asking if I would beinterested in reviewing the new book from Steve Zaffron and DaveLogan titled "the three laws of performance". I jumpedat the opportunity....free book right?

Well...I'd happily pay twice the list price for thisbook and so should you....
The full title of the book is The Three Laws of Performance:Rewriting the Future of Your Organization and Your Life and it iscalled a 'Warren Bennis' book...if you like Bennis,you'll like this book too.

The premise of the book is that there are three laws that willalways affect performance...just like the law of gravity willalways have an effect on you.
The three laws are:

How people perform correlates to how situations occur tothem
How a situation occurs arises in languages
Future based language transforms how situations occur to people

... This is a great book...I think it is one of the bestbooks I've read in the last few years. Grab this book soon asyou can and enjoy!" (EricBrown.com)

"Three Laws is about impossible transformations and howsystemic change can remake your life or your organization."(Life Insurance Selling)…mehr
