'If, as many CEOs claim, employees are our most valuable resource, why are those resources beingdepleted? More precisely, why are employees being depleted of the energy, motivation and pride that makethem fulfilled and proud employees - and human beings? Dysfunctional organizations and demoralizedemployees are the result, Daniel Wentland writes, of a management-employee relationship that must be redefinedand revitalized. As he writes, when leaders truly value employees and treat them as partners ratherthan subordinates, everyone in the organization will find that giving forth their maximum effort is the best- and easiest thing to do. Nothing less than a new paradigm is needed, and in the book Daniel combines hisacademic research with the insights he developed as a manager with large organizations to describe theimportant steps that will enable employees and managers to create that new, exciting paradigm.'Stephen Bernhut, Editor, of the Ivey Business JournalLeaders everywhere can be grateful to Professor Wentland for providing comprehensive guidance thatallows them to shape organizational culture in a way that releases the full potential of managers and staffmembers alike. Wentland effectively combines his hands-on knowledge of organizational best practiceswith a synthesis of the relevant scholarship available on key points. Managers will find this book a usefuland provocative tool as they continue to move their organizations from 'good' to 'great.'Karen Halbersleben, President of Northland College, Ashland, WisconsinThe information in Organizational Performance in a Nutshell provides a comprehensive framework for understanding questions likewhy does one organization thrive while another struggles for survival even though both are operating in the same industry, or how cansome of the largest global organizations such as GM, Ford, Chrysler, Home Depot, Sears, Kmart, Airbus, Citigroup, Gateway, and Dellperform so poorly after being such colossal leaders in their industry? A new way of thinking about organizational effectiveness willemerge from the information contained in this book. In sum, organizational performance in a nutshell will be revealed.
