Packed with real-life examples, sample dialogues, and helpful worksheets, the book remains an eye-opening and forward-looking guide to making your disciplinary system equitable and effective.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>More than 30 years ago, Dick Grote developed a powerful, nonpunitive discipline system that turned a troubled Frito-Lay plant from a hotbed of employee sabotage and toxic relations into a productive, respectful environment-one where employees took personal responsibility for their behavior, and managers helped problem employees become productive players. Grote's method spread to other companies, and gained national recognition with the 1995 release of the first edition of Discipline Without Punishment. The book has become a management classic, helping thousands of companies and managers move to a responsibility-based approach for handling unacceptable performance, problem behaviors, and excessive absenteeism. But, despite the effectiveness of the DWP method, many supervisors and workplaces continue to cling to their long-established system of verbal warnings, written reprimands, suspensions without pay, and probationary periods-all fear-based approaches that instill lots of resentment, with little or no payback in improved performance.

Grote outlines a complete program for coaching, building superior performance, and disciplining employees that is useful in handling absenteeism, bad attitudes, and poor performance. He also provides tips on solving people problems before they require disciplinary action." --HRMagazine </p> <p> </p> <p> "There is an important difference between Discipline Without Punishment and most other management tomes: The positive discipline system espoused here actually works. It's simple, it's tested, it's proven, it's easy to implement, and it makes good sense. Readers will wonder why their organizations haven't been applying this approach to performance improvement all along." --Ron Zemke, coauthor, the Knock Your Socks Off Service series </p> <p> </p> <p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p> -<i>Discipline Without Punishment</i> can guide managers to a better performance management system, based on encouraging employee responsibility, developing ongoing performance improvement discussions, and generally not treating employees as criminals in need of punishment....As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss.- </p> <p> -<i>Accounting Today</i> </p><br><br><p> -As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss.- </p> <p> -<i>Accounting Today</i> </p><br><br><p> "<i>Discipline Without Punishment</i> can guide managers to a better performance management system, based on encouraging employee responsibility, developing ongoing performance improvement discussions, and generally not treating employees as criminals in need of punishment....As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss." </p> <p> -<i>Accounting Today</i> </p><br><br><p> "As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss." </p> <p> -<i>Accounting Today</i> </p><br><br><P> ""Discipline Without Punishment" can guide managers to a better performance management system, based on encouraging employee responsibility, developing ongoing performance improvement discussions, and generally not treating employees as criminals in need of punishment....As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss." <P> -"Accounting Today"<br><br><P> "As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss." <P> -"Accounting Today"<br><br><P> “"Discipline Without Punishment" can guide managers to a better performance management system, based on encouraging employee responsibility, developing ongoing performance improvement discussions, and generally not treating employees as criminals in need of punishment….As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we’ll be presenting a copy to our boss.” <P> -"Accounting Today"<br><br><P> “As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we’ll be presenting a copy to our boss.” <P> -"Accounting Today"<br><br> ""Discipline Without Punishment" can guide managers to a better performance management system, based on encouraging employee responsibility, developing ongoing performance improvement discussions, and generally not treating employees as criminals in need of punishment....As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss." <P> -"Accounting Today"<br><br> "As soon as the welts from our last employee review heal, we'll be presenting a copy to our boss." <P> -"Accounting Today"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p> Dick Grote (Addison, TX) is Chairman and CEO of Grote Consulting Corp., and the author of <i>The Complete Guide to Performance Appraisal</i>, <i> The Performance Appraisal Question and Answer Book</i>, and <i>Forced Ranking: Making Performance Management Work</i>.
