Produktbeschreibung

Turn a good company into a great one--with passion! "The Passion Plan at Work gets down to the essentials of what it takes to succeed in today's business world. Richard Chang's philosophies are such a wonderful inspiration both in and out of the workplace!" --Ken Blanchard, coauthor of The One Minute Manager and Gung Ho! "As human beings, we are significantly more influenced by the feelings and emotions of our heart than we realize (or are willing to admit). Ironically, it is through embracing these powerful passions within that we can ultimately unleash our true potential as individuals and as organizations. Richard Chang's The Passion Plan at Work superbly teaches this principle." --Stephen R. Covey, author of the No. 1 best-seller, The 7-Habits of Highly Effective People "Richard Chang does it again! He takes a critical and hard-to-define concept and makes it understandable and doable! All who wish to motivate and keep the talent on their teams should read this book." --Beverly Kaye, president, Career Systems International, coauthor, Love Em or Lose Em: Getting Good People to Stay "The Passion Plan at Work is the fuel for quality. Richard Chang proves it can be learned. A must-read book for serious organizations in the pursuit of quality and excellence." --Horst H. Schulze, president and chief operating officer, The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company, L.L.C. "Passion transforms our life's work from a job into a worthy pursuit that truly makes a difference. With advice that is both inspirational and practical, The Passion Plan at Work shows how to lead this kind of transformation through a whole organization." --Ralph W. Shrader, chairman and chief executive officer, Booz-Allen & Hamilton, Inc.
