"For frustrated managers and leaders, a guide to instilling a strong work ethic in the modern workforce. Work ethic in America is fast declining, plaguing young and old alike. But in Reviving Work Ethic, Eric Chester shows that you do best to focus on your young employees - those whose habits and ideals can still be influenced. He presents and incisive look at the root of the entitlement mentality that afflicts many in the emerging workforce and shows you the specific actions you can take to give your employees a deep commitment to performing excellent work. And his advice is crucial to a healthy bottom line: too often, talented but difficult-to-understand younger workers stand between your company and its profits. If business owners, managers, and executives are not connecting with them and modeling the key components of work ethic, employees are likely not connecting effectively with customers - leaving all kinds of money on the table. Reviving Work Ethic is the culmination of years of research as well as presentations to over two million youth. Chester's experience shows in his confident analysis of the seven components of work ethic and in his proven strategies for handing them down to young employees." - from the inner front jacket flap. "Too many young people are under the impression that work is a four-letter word; something to be avoided. Chester shows leaders how to get inside their heads - and their hearts - and get them to take pride in their work and perform at their best." - Ron Baire, President and CEO, Brookstone. "Eric has distilled his vast experience into a timely and concise book that will be very valuable to anyone who wants to improve the performance of young people in today's workforce. This is a must-read for managers, teachers, and parents." - Ted Fowler, President and CEO, Golden Corral. "Nothing beats hard work, and nothing ever will. The problem is that it is in short supply. In this wonderful book, Eric Chester lays out the path to getting back to basics and unleashing winning behaviors in your workforce. Read it, study it, and then DO IT! It will make you a better leader." - Chester Elton, author. "Chester certainly has a handle on driving performance through the emerging workforce. And with diminishing work ethic being such a pressing concern for leaders, the timing of this book couldn't be better." - Donald Broman, President, Snap-On Industrial. Seller Inventory # 008112
