“The Extra-Mile Manager
Behavioral ROI: Attaining It … Sustaining It”
Available at amazon.com
Managers complete their own annual goals, then guide and support staff in setting performance goals that contribute to department goals.
Department Productivity Indices reflect managers’ attention to staff’s needs and rising engagement. Improvements in PI’s show exact dollar amounts contributed to profits.
Managers = change agents. Positive Reciprocity is the change mechanism. The strategy: Care about staffs’ needs.
Joe Cox’s ninth book cites “Social Law of Reciprocity” among chimps (we share 98% DNA). Homo sapiens reciprocate positive and negative treatment. “Alpha’s” behavior, like corporate bosses, often elicits negative reciprocity.
Disengagement’s root is management’s preoccupation with its own needs. The extent of supply-demand gaps indicate the severity of disengagement. Staff motivation remains untapped. Neglect generates red ink.
