Description

Punishing subordinates has become the main taboo topic in modern management—unlike the vast number of theories and methods for rewarding and compensating personnel. Management gurus usually recite stock phrases about the negative role of punishment in practice, or else they shyly avoid the subject, fearing they might be seen as inhumane or politically incorrect. Meanwhile, managers keep running their heads into a wall in futile attempts to improve their subordinates’ discipline—and that’s because both groups underestimate the role of punishment as a management tool and don’t know how to apply it.

This unique practical guide will help you objectively look at reality and break down the causes of your previous management mistakes and failures. Together with Alexander Fridman, step by step, you will build your own system for correcting employees’ undesirable behavior and gain unique practical tools to radically improve the accuracy of managing any team—from a small working group to an entire company.

As in his previous bestsellers, "You or Them" and "You or Chaos," Alexander Fridman consistently takes a strict, pragmatic approach to management, taking into account the specifics of the national mindset and Russian business customs.
