Treat People Right!: How Organizations and Individuals Can Propel Each Other Into a Virtuous Spiral of Success

As a career management professional, I strongly recommend human resource professionals sit up and read Lawler's book. Start treating your human resources as people in the 21st century. People are important to business success. Lawler has done a critical analysis and used highly illustrative examples to demonstrate the importance of treating people right as part of organisational success strategy. The examples quoted could easily be adapted for implementation in many organisations. I would encourage the CEOs of small and medium sized companies to read this book too. At the beginning of the 21st century, many managers and executives would realise their competitive advantage stems from the creativity, ideas, innovation and enterprise of their people.......so treat people right! Recommended reading for post-graduate programmes in Human Resource, Management and Organizational Behaviour.
