About this title

Synopsis

Empowerment has been documented as a breakthrough opportunity for performance improvement in virtually any type of business application. The Empowerment Cookbook is the only empowerment guide offering actual ``recipes'' for successfully creating, sustaining or refocusing an empowerment initiative in any type of business. The unique format of this collection of tips and tools is designed in the context of a cookbook, full of recipes complete with: Ingredients to blend, stir and add for the perfect team empowerment mixture; Practical and concise ``how-to'' cooking directions to organize ingredients for the best results; Variation and substitution tips for unique situations; Helpful time-saving ideas; Sample tools, templates, matrices and graphic illustrations. Just like a cookbook, the reader can carefully pick and choose from a selection of recipes (tools and topics of interest) to serve a customized menu (an empowered work team) for their specific business application. Using the cooking theme throughout, the book creates a lighthearted, easy-to-comprehend feel for a sometimes technical and difficult-to-grasp subject. The book offers an easy-to-understand framework for effecting a team vision based on findings acquired from years of practical experience and benchmarking. The Empowerment Cookbook offers an easy-to-follow, five-step implementation process model to Plan, Prepare, Preheat, Process and Cook a team empowerment strategy to perfection.
