Product Description

An invaluable new strategy for creating enthusiastic employees, from the author of the bestselling The One Minute Manager. Every day thousands of uninspired employees trudge to work -- often dooming their companies to failure with their lack of enthusiasm. Drawing on over 20 years' experience of working with hundreds of corporations across the US -- including America Online, Eastman Kodak, General Motors, Hershey Chocolate and Microsoft -- Blanchard reveals a surefire strategy for boosting employee enthusiasm, productivity and performance. Gung Ho! presents a simple system for inspiring employees. Based on three core ideas: work must be seen as important, workers must be put in control of their own production and managers must cheer their workers on -- it is a method that all employees and managers can easily implement and which has already been adopted by such major corporations as K-Mart.

Ken Blanchard is the founder and Chairman of The Ken Blanchard Companies. His One Minute Manager series has sold over thirteen million copies and been translated into more than 25 languages. He has also written or co-authored numerous other books, including Gung Ho!, Big Bucks! and Raving Fans

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read, excellent perspective, 13 April 2002

By A Customer

I read this book in one session on a Sunday afternoon. The skillful writing had me literally with tears rolling down my cheeks by the end of the prologue (not of laughter!) and thus I was glued. The message in the book is simple and a must for anyone who is looking to motivate their teams and increase productivity for the long term rather than short term fixes and is about looking at your own attitude as well as that of your team. If you wish to stay as one of life's lone rangers don't buy this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Treating employees like human beings, 2 Oct 1999

By A Customer

Gung Ho! is a simple yet powerful presentation of three easily understood principles which saved an American factory from closure and resulted in the site receiving a White House commendation.

The three principles involve lessons from the natural world. The animals used to demonstrate the principles - squirrels, beavers and geese - should be sufficiently familiar to most readers, even if only from television, to not obscure the messages which the authors present. To me the beauty of this book - less than 200 pages in paperback - is the evident conviction conveyed in the text, supported by several references to other organisations who have successfully adiopted the Gung Ho! principles.

This is not a dry technical managerial textbook. It is rather a story of how observation of the natural world can be used to motivate human beings.

4.0 out of 5 stars A dose of not-so-common sense!, 21 Oct 1998

By A Customer

I looked forward to my lunchtime reading breaks while reading this book, as I knew I would come away feeling more energised and positive about what is possible.

This is an easy book to read, and in some ways it is a simple book, although not simplistic. The principles are timeless, and you can take practical advice from it which you can apply straightaway.

What's cool is that the story is based on real events, and its connexion with real-life people is touching. A success-story blueprint.
