Excellence at Work: The Six Keys to Inspire Passion in the Workplace

It's time to build a passionate, engaged workforce so you can attract, optimize and retain the top talent you need to meet and exceed your company's goals. Most companies are faced with overwhelming pressure to produce more, better, faster, and cheaper in order to compete in a highly competitive global marketplace. The solution is for leaders to establish a culture where there is a passionate commitment to excellence characterized by high productivity, full engagement and inspired leadership. Excellence at Work provides a practical roadmap for leaders at every level in an organization to build a committed, inspired workforce that is focused on success. This book presents six simple, yet powerful principles for creating a robust work environment in which employees communicate impeccably, proactively solve problems, execute on priorities, bring out the best in each other, reignite their passion and have fun. The principles that author Sandy Asch teaches are the "glue" that makes human resources, training initiatives and business processes "stick" and produce lasting results. Asch offers a comprehensive guide to the foundation of organizational excellence, with case study examples, tools and strategies for operationalizing the six principles in your workplace. They not only will make a difference in your work life, but in your personal life, too.

These concepts will help us to achieve three critical choice factors: to become known as an employer of choice; to earn the reputation as the vendor of choice; and to become the investment of choice.

Integrating the Excellence principles into our day-to-day operations has helped us become recognized as one of San Diego's top employers.
