Given layoffs, downsizing, delayed promotions, mergers, tardy raises, and more, contemporary organizations face challenges that make this a difficult time to manage employees. You can make one mistake and end up as the villain in an expensive civil suit that an upset current or former employee – or even by a professional plaintiff masquerading as an employee – files against your company. Seasoned HR professional Paul Falcone, who passionately advocates the importance of HR's role, presents 75 proven tactics – selectively sampled here – for managing and inspiring employees while motivating loyalty and performance. He explains what managers can do to elicit the highest level of productivity from their employees while not getting sued by disgruntled people making the most of today's litigious society. getAbstract recommends his innovative manual to managers and HR professionals. Falcone's description of his book is apt; it is, as he says, a "consultant in a box."
