I have permission from Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc. to distribute an
excerpt from the new book, "Love 'Em or Lose 'Em: Getting Good People to
Stay" by Beverly Kaye and Sharon Jordan-Evans. The excerpt I am
distributing is from Chapter 10, "Jerk. Don't Be One."
Are you the boss from hell? Did you know that talented people will leave
any organization if they don't like their boss? Here's where you can take a
look at the "Who Me, a Jerk?" behavior checklist and find out where you
score. If you find some shocking results and sincerely would like to
change, this excerpt will show you the way.
Beverly Kaye and Sharon Jordan-Evans are friends, colleagues and coauthors
of the new book, "Love 'Em or Lose 'Em: Getting Good People to Stay."
Beverly
is president of Career Systems International, a consulting and training
company. Sharon serves as president of the Jordan Evans Group, a leadership
consulting business. Both authors are passionate about the message in this
book and their retention research and work.
