Профессиональная технология для регулярного менеджмента. Уникальное практическое руководство, не имеющее аналогов. Технологии наказания подчиненных стали главной табуированной темой современного менеджмента – в отличие от огромного количества теорий и методик поощрения и вознаграждения персонала. Гуру менеджмента обычно произносят дежурные фразы об отрицательной роли наказаний в практике управления или стыдливо обходят эту тему стороной, опасаясь прослыть негуманными и неполиткорректными, а управленцы продолжают биться головой об стену в бесплодных попытках повысить исполнительскую дисциплину подчиненных, – и всё потому, что и те, и другие недооценивают роль наказаний как инструмента управления и не умеют его применять. Это уникальное практическое руководство поможет вам объективно посмотреть на реальность и разобрать причины своих прежних управленческих ошибок и неудач. Вместе с Александром Фридманом вы шаг за шагом построите собственную систему коррекции нежелательного поведения сотрудников и получите уникальный практический инструментарий для радикального повышения точности управления любым коллективом, от небольшой рабочей группы до целой компании. Александр Фридман занимает второе место в рейтинге лучших российских экспертов в области управления по результатам исследования компании SEReputation.
