About The Demotivated Employee: Helping Leaders Solve The
Product Description DO YOUR EMPLOYEES SEEM DISENGAGED? Do you ever wonder why employees are not as motivated and productive as you would like for them to be? Do you find yourself thinking that some employees are just “lazy slackers”? You may be surprised to learn that there are other explanations for employee demotivation that you may not be thinking about when you are leading people. Authors Tara Peters and Cathy Bush have worked with thousands of leaders who are shocked to learn that managers and leaders play a significant role in causing employees to lose motivation. Without even realizing it, we take all sorts of actions during the process of leading people and organizations, and many of these actions actually deflate the motivation that people bring with them to work. In The Demotivated Employee, readers will learn what leadership behaviors they are engaging in that might demotivate their employees; how to better communicate with employees so this doesn’t happen; and how to work within the constraints of organizational culture to help employees thrive. Review " The Demotivated Employee is a gem of a little book that packs a big punch--full of rich insights, illustrative examples, and practical applications that you can use immediately. Making the critical point that demotivation is not the flip side of motivation, Drs. Tara Peters and Cathy Bush have written a valuable and much-needed contribution to the current conversation about workplace engagement. If you find yourself losing steam,feeling down, and getting frustrated that you can't make progress or use your talents to the fullest, The Demotivated Employee will help you to better understand why and what you can do about it." -- Jim Kouzes, coauthor of The Leadership Challenge ; executive fellow, Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University "If you're eager to become a high-performing leader, you need to read this book. Bush and Peters masterfully weave together groundbreaking science with practical suggestions, delivering a captivating roadmap for inspiring, engaging, and motivating your team to achieve the highest levels." -- Ron Friedman, PhD, author of The Best Place to Work "Most managers recognize that employees sometimes lose motivation, but only great managers see the role that they are playing in that process. In The Demotivated Employee, Cathy Bush and Tara Peters offer great insight about the causes of employee demotivation along with excellent action ideas for great managers to adopt." -- Scott Jeffrey Miller, Wall Street Journal best-selling author of Management Mess to Leadership Success and Everyone Deserves A Great Manager ; executive vice president of thought leadership and chief marketing officer, Franklin Covey "Most managers go through life asking themselves how they can motivate their employees. The Demotivated Employee shows us clearly and persuasively that this is the wrong question. What managers should be asking is how they can avoid demotivating their employees, virtually all of whom come to their work wanting to do it well. This clear and well-written book makes a powerful case that it is demotivation that plagues the modern workplace and offers many smart and sensible suggestions that will help managers prevent demotivation from infecting their employees." -- Barry Schwartz, author of Why We Work, Practical Wisdom , and The Paradox of Choice About the Author DR.
