"Annunzio and her team at the Hudson Highland Center for High Performance undertook a worldwide study of more than three thousand knowledge workers, seeking the factors that accelerate or inhibit high performance in their workgroups. The shocking news is that only 10 percent of all workgroups in the study qualify as high performing. Annunzio's big insight - supported by the groundbreaking research - is that the characteristics that drive high performance in these groups are the same around the world." "The fastest, most effective way to achieve profitable growth is to increase the performance of your best workgroups. You also can accomplish that goal by sharing the secrets of your strongest workgroups with the "almost theres" - those groups in the middle of the pack. Too many organizations focus on minimizing failure by eliminating or improving low-performing groups, rather than spreading success." "By fostering the right work environment, companies can accelerate high performance. Contagious Success points the way forward. It's an essential book for leaders who want to unleash the hidden potential in their organizations."—BOOK JACKET.
