In his new book, published on 19th June, The CEO, Chief Engagement Officer - Turning Hierarchy Upside Down to Drive Performance, author John Smythe claims that leaders who take the risk to engage their employees in the decisions normally made by an elite few, perform and manage change better.
Smythe argues that generations of leaders have falsely assumed that:
§
Workers want to be told what to do
§
Bosses are paid to have all the answers
§
There's no time to engage 'the shop floor'
§
Employees can't see the big picture and won't add much
§
Employees just want a job and don't want to engage

Humbug
Drawing from research with 57 organisations in the UK, Europe, USA and Australia whilst acting as an Organisational Fellow with McKinsey and from 25 years consulting, Smythe provides powerful stories of leaders who have reached down to engage some or all of the workers in devising and executing strategies (and change) and in resolving crises.
says Smythe. |
