The Why of Work: How Great Leaders Build 工作的理由 下载 pdf 百度网盘 epub 免费 2025 电子版 mobi 在线

The authors, a consultant and a psychologist, set out to help

leaders (within and outside organizations) understand the meaning

and purpose of work. We learn that as employees find meaning in

their efforts, they contribute to creating value for customers,

investors, and communities; hence, finding meaning is good for

business. The Ulrichs offer seven disciplines, each with a unique

perspective, that leaders can use to build meaning in their

organizations or personally, identifying these disciplines with

extensive interviews of a wide range of individuals, through

training programs for numerous executives and human resource

professionals, and by researching academic sources on meaning and

living well. These seven disciplines include positive psychology,

social responsibility, and employee engagement. This book is an

infomercial and handbook for the authors’ teaching/consulting

efforts and they emphatically conclude that meaning matters for

good business, but also “for the hearts and souls of millions of

people who get up and go to work every day.” --Mary Whaley

书籍介绍

According to studies, we all work for the same thing--and it's not just money. It's meaning. Through our work, we seek a sense of purpose, contribution, connection, value, and hope. Digging down to the meaning of work taps our resilience in hard times and our passion in good times. That's the simple but profound premise behind this groundbreaking book by renowned management expert Dave Ulrich and psychologist Wendy Ulrich. They've talked to thousands of people--from rank-and-file workers to clients and customers to top-level executives--and synthesized major disciplines to identify the "why" behind our most successful experiences.

Using the model of the "abundant organization," they provide you with the "how" to create meaning and value in your own workplace. Learn how to:

-Ask the seven questions that drive abundance

-Understand the needs of your customers and staff

-Personalize the work to motivate your employees

-Build and grow your business in any economy

By following the Ulrichs' step-by-step guidelines, you will set off a chain reaction of positive and enduring effects. Employees who fi nd meaning in their work are more competent, committed, and eager to contribute—and their contribution will result in increased customer commitment, which delivers a winning performance on the bottom line.

The Why of Work includes targeted checklists, questionnaires, and other useful tools to help you turn aspirations into action. Using the proven principles of abundance, you can coordinate your needs with those of your employers, your employees, and your customers--and create a vision that resonates for years to come. When you understand why we work, you know how to succeed.
