Great Work: How to Make a Difference People Love
...
The 5 keys to building more value in your company from the ground up
Great work lives inside all of us. The question is: Do we make the contributions we're capable of? Is our best work getting out there? Making waves? Creating a difference the world loves?
We've long been told our ability to succeed depends on our job title, social status, gender, I.Q., or when and where we were born. Great Work turns that conventional thinking on its head to reveal innovation can come from anyone, anywhere.
Especially you.
With insights from the largest-ever study of award-winning work, Great Work reveals five practical skills that will help you become a difference maker at work. You'll learn to make improvements that delight customers, inspire team members, help your company grow, and put a spark in your career.
Great Work is filled with stories of real people in real jobs who did the work they were assigned and then shattered expectations to deliver better-than-asked-for results. The differences they've made will inspire you. Better still, they'll teach you how to make a difference of your own.
From the organization behind The Carrot Principle and other national bestsellers that taught the world's managers to recognize great work, this book will help a new generation of readers do work worth recognizing.
