8 Principles That Lead to Greater
Productivity, Quality, Job Satisfaction, and Profits
Based
on the internationally acclaimed book by Rob Lebow Published by
Prima Publishing.
In the symbolic context of a
dramatic story taking place on a cross country train journey, this
video introduces the concept of the Heroic Environment,
accomplished through eight principles that can lead to greater
productivity, quality, job satisfaction, and profits in an
organization.
John Spencer is a frustrated
assistant plant manager returning home from a job interview by
train, where he meets "Kip" Kiplinger, a successful
self-made businessman with the wisdom of years and colorful
stories to go with it. As the journey begins, Kip explains to John
how job satisfaction is dependent upon work environment. Kip
proceeds to introduce the concept of the Heroic Environment, where
people are treated with respect, trust and dignity, contribute
more, and rise to their potential.
To accomplish this he lists and
explains eight principles, which cover values such as uncompromised
truth and trust, as well
as concepts like unselfish mentoring, openness to new
ideas, risk taking, and putting the
interests of others first.
The principles are illustrated
with lively stories and examples from Kip's wide experience in
business and living. As a starting point for individual action,
five characteristics of Heroic Behavior are finally given in
simple, practical terms.
Offering a strong foundation for
personal responsibility-taking as well as Shared Values, the video
is accompanied by a comprehensive activity-based 100 plus page
leader's guide written by Rob Lebow which supports the video in a
practical way.
According to author Rob Lebow,
"Introducing the eight principles of the Heroic Environment
may be one of the most important events in your organization's
history. Once on the journey, you will enjoy all the benefits of
your people working with each other in ways previously
unreachable!"
