Specifically written about the library work environment, this book
offers strategies for creating and maintaining a positive and
supportive LIS environment that will engage all types of staff,
resulting in increased performance. Workplace engagement is a
growing trend in management for good reason: the success of any
organization depends as much on the mindsets and attitudes of the
staff as any other factor or material component. This book shares
research-derived strategies for creating and maintaining a positive
LIS environment that will engage and empower all types of library
employees-strategies that will boost worker engagement and improve
performance. The information in Cultivating Engaged Staff: Better
Management for Better Libraries is based on the author's doctoral
research investigating the conditions that lead to higher levels of
workplace engagement and how these elements interact to create an
environment that supports engagement. Readers will come away with a
clear understanding of how to apply these research findings in the
LIS field, with particular reference to the changing technological
environment, the nature of the work, and the legislative and
political environment. The book also includes real-life stories
that enable managers to view their own behavior through the eyes of
other colleagues and workers. Provides specific instruction to help
librarians implement a popular, proven-effective management
technique Shows library managers how to increase performance and
productivity at any level of management through research-based
methods Presents reflective questions to encourage thinking about
one's impact in the workplace
