Highly original motivational management move
Today, too few skilled workers are available to fill the most demanding jobs. What can companies do? Matthew Kelly believes that employers must get into the "dream business." To become more attractive to workers, companies should, on a formal basis, begin to help their workers achieve their dreams by offering coaching that helps them achieve their goals, step by step. These dreams could range from purchasing a house or digging out of debt to traveling to Paris or putting their children through college. Whatever an individual's dream might be, companies can earn undying gratitude - never-ending loyalty - by focusing on what employees hope to achieve in their lives. getAbstract recommends this book to managers who like the sound of "easier recruitment, better retention, less retraining" and would love to have loyal, engaged, enthusiastic employees. Though it may sound far-fetched, a little inner-office altruism and coaching certainly would be a salutary way to develop a workforce of optimists who believe their dreams are achievable. Read this original solution to a well-known problem and learn how to create a "dream program" for your employees.

A terrific book!
I honestly think that this is one of the best, most empowering book I have ever read.

It is better than The Secret and was very inspiring in a personal way for me.

I have passed it on to the head of Human Resources in my company and we will see if they are bold enough to implement the program.

Highly recommended.
