Ultimate Advantage Creating the High-Involvement Organization

In this much-praised book, Edward Lawler offers an integrated overview of just how an organization must be designed to realize the full potential of high-involvement management. He details the types of management and reward systems, leadership behaviors, job design, and training programs that make high-involvement organizations really work at such thriving companies as Hewlett-Packard, General Electric, and Xerox. And he shows how to implement such specific practices as work teams, skill-based pay, gainsharing, and improvement groups."One of the strengths of Lawler's book is its readiness to confront directly the sort of questions that really worry most top managers." --Financial TimesLawler, Edward E., III is the author of 'Ultimate Advantage Creating the High-Involvement Organization', published 1992 under ISBN 9781555424145 and ISBN 1555424147.
