Keys to Motivation and Productivity
Dr. Beverly Potter
 urning
Around explains behavior psychology and how to apply the techniques
to daily supervision situations. It is a valuable reference to return
to
when faced with difficult management questions
Turning
Around shows step-by-step how to assure top performance from
yourself
and all those on your team. It explains the most complex techniques in
down-to-earth terms.
Turning
Around tells how to:
 Use behavior
modification
Conduct interviews
Lead meetings
Mediate conflicts
Manage authority
Manage yourself
Turning
Around focuses strictly on objectives and how to achieve them
day-in
and day-out. It makes your job easier and your career progress more
satisfying.
Many traditional management theories have
failed
to produce the desired results because they have tended to view
employee
behaviors as isolated events, and have thus overlooked their
relationship
to the environmental setting. These theories often point to internal
needs,
motives, and conflicts as the sole determinants of a person's actions.
On the other hand, when you expand your vision to look at those
behaviors
in their environmental context, you may conclude that within that
environment,
it may be that your actions or nonactions are the very events that
evoke
or maintain the behaviors you would like to eliminate. In other words,
one way of changing the behavior of those around you is to change your
own behavior.
