<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>What could your organizations accomplish if everyone--from the investors and those at the top to workers on the front line--were committed to the same goal? Learn the powerful ways to build buy-in that cost nothing yet drive major organization-wide results.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Employee engagement, accountability, and true commitment--not management's well-thought-out initiatives--are the real key to achieving results. In The Power of Strategic Commitment readers learn how to improve strategic processes by enlisting the support of managers, employees, boards, suppliers, investors, and others to promote company-wide ownership. The book outlines the key factors that determine commitment and reveals how readers can continuously measure buy-in, involve everyone in creating their own piece of a larger organizational future, tailor commitment strategies for individual employees, keep everyone on the road to achieving stated goals, hire fully-engaged talent, and create a commitment-inspiring rewards system.Most managers and executives don't have a clear system for ensuring the support they need from those around them. But creating and sustaining the kind of buy-in that drives results starts with you. The Power of Strategic Commitment provides practical methods for getting everyone to not only accept and support, but actually embrace organizational initiatives and promote long-term success.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Not just a slogan on the T-shirts you give out at the company picnic, commitment is a crucial strategic advantage in any organization. But it's as elusive to achieve as it is easy to covet. Real commitment transcends simple compliance, where employees follow the rules and get their work done, and translates to the active engagement of every individual in everything he or she does. The Power of Strategic Commitment not only shows you what that level of engagement looks like, it also gives you the tools and proven methodologies to achieve it, measure it, track it, and maintain it. Drawing on the field expertise of three leading consultants and featuring eye-opening examples from their exceptional client rosters, the book serves as both an inspiration and a step-by-step guide to driving growth and profit through true involvement. No matter how well they are planned, strategic initiatives large and small are doomed to fail if the people charged with executing them don't believe in them. Creating and sustaining that sort of buy-in may seem like a tall order, but it's imperative if you want to stay ahead of your competition. And it starts with leadership and management--it starts with you. The Power of Strategic Commitment lays out a blueprint for moving beyond the compliance that is the norm at all too many companies, toward that magical point where every initiative is not only accepted but supported--even embraced--by every employee at every level.
