About this audiobook
Make work suck less and improve the performance of your people with this practical, hands-on guide
The COVID-19 pandemic and an ever-changing array of new ways of working seem to have all of us asking, "Does work really have to suck this bad?" It looks like a small taste of flexibility and freedom has made many of us rethink the nature of the work we do and how we do it.
In Work Here Now Melissa Swift delivers an eye-opening roadmap to better work that generates wins for companies and employees alike. In the book, you'll explore different ways to improve the growth-impeding, borderline inhumane people management practices we've created and endured over time. You'll also find: fifty strategies to create a powerhouse workplace at organizational level; fifty strategies to create a powerhouse workplace at team level; and a simple framework to help you make people-centered decisions.
An incisive and practical take on managing and working with people that—for once—doesn't rely on hackneyed idealism or management-by-algorithm, Work Here Now is the hands-on performance improvement tool that executives, managers, HR professionals, and other business leaders have been searching for.
