The Truth About Employee Engagement was originally published as The
Three Signs of a Miserable Job. A bestselling author and business
guru tells how to improve job satisfaction and performance. In his
sixth fable, bestselling author Patrick Lencioni takes on a topic
that almost everyone can relate to: job misery. Millions of
workers, even those who have carefully chosen careers based on true
passions and interests, dread going to work, suffering each day as
they trudge to jobs that make them cynical, weary, and frustrated.
It is a simple fact of business life that any job, from investment
banker to dishwasher, can become miserable. Through the story of a
CEO turned pizzeria manager, Lencioni reveals the three elements
that make work miserable -- irrelevance, immeasurability, and
anonymity -- and gives managers and their employees the keys to
make any job more engaging. As with all of Lencioni s books, this
one is filled with actionable advice you can put into effect
immediately. In addition to the fable, the book includes a detailed
model examining the three root causes of job misery and how they
can be remedied. It covers the benefits of managing for job
engagement within organizations -- increased productivity, greater
retention, and competitive advantage -- and offers examples of how
managers can use the applications in the book to deal with specific
jobs and situations. Patrick Lencioni is President of The Table
Group, a management consulting firm specializing in executive team
development and organizational health. As a consultant and keynote
speaker, he has worked with thousands of senior executives and
executive teams in organizations ranging from Fortune 500 companies
to high-tech startups to universities and nonprofits. His clients
