Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to shield employees from change, involve them in high-level decision-making, and keep them happy with endless \"satisfaction surveys\" and workplace perks. But what these engagement programs actually do, Cy Wakeman says, is inflate expectations and sow unhappiness, leaving employees unprepared to adapt to even minor changes necessary to the organization's survival. Rather than driving performance and creating efficiencies, these programs fuel entitlement and drama, costing millions in time and profit. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIt is high time to reinvent leadership thinking. Stop worrying about your employees' happiness, and start worrying about their accountability. Cy Wakeman teaches you how to hire \"emotionally inexpensive\" people, solicit only the opinions you need, and promote self-awareness in your whole team. \u003ci\u003eNo Ego \u003c\/i\u003edisposes with unproven HR maxims, and instead offers a complete plan to turn your office from a den of discontent to a happy, productive place.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCY WAKEMAN is a drama researcher, international leadership speaker, and consultant.
