We spend a significant proportion of our lives at work. So when we are under fire and our boss is giving us a hard time it can have a significant impact on our happiness and well being. It can cause stress, anxiety and even problems in other areas of our lives. Employed But Under Fire is written to give comfort if you are under fire. It will explain in simple terms what is really going on at work and strategies you can adopt to help you see a way forward out of the stress. A few things you will learn: How to negotiate an employment agreement How to answer misconduct allegations How to deal with a performance management process How to deal with a bully How to raise a personal grievance and get it resolved "There is nothing like this on the market, this is a must read for anyone facing employment issues which I can say are the norm rather than the exception" Ken Vesey
The executives who ignited the transformations from good to great did not first figure out where to drive the bus and then get people to take it there. No, they first got the right people on the bus (and the wrong people off the bus) and then figured out where to drive it... If you have the wrong people, it doesn't matter whether you discover the right direction; you still won't have a great company. Great vision without great people is irrelevant" - Jim Collins, Good to Great. That's all very well, but in New Zealand, employment legislation is so stacked in favour of the employee that you can't get the wrong people off the bus without paying lots of money in compensation, right? Employed But Not Engaged is a new book by Michael Smyth which guides business owners through the treacherous minefield of New Zealand employment law. It leads the business owner through the recruitment process, to managing employees, right up to the dismissal process and beyond to fighting a personal grievance in the Employment Relations Authority. Nothing is missed out and everything is explained in plain English using the analogy of a relationship between a boyfriend / girlfriend, husband / wife or life partner (something we can all relate to).
