This book talks about one company's use of coaching techniques to make a real difference in their employees' lives. By simply being interested in their dreams and desires, and working with them to reach those goals, the company dramatically increased the overall well-being and satisfaction of their staff. They also increased profits by lowering turnover and client satisfaction increased as employees were happier and more dedicated to their work. This is a small book with big ideas. It reminds me about the importance of having a dream. I thought this was a management book and what a "manager from heaven" (a dream manager) would look like. No it isn't. It has a more important message. That everyone of us has dreams. Sometimes, we just need a book, or someone else to remind us. That's the role of a dream manager, who can be anyone really. Read the book. Dare to dream. The premise of this book is that building a great organization requires helping people achieve their highest potential. The storyline throughout is a fictional company that implements a "dream manager" program to help motivate people and to help them achieve their goals. I found the first half somewhat simplistic but it grew on me. I still think the concept of. having full-time dream managers for every employee is a stretch. There needs to be more personal accountability. It's still a worthy and illustrative aspiration. It's also very readable. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

A business parable about how companies can achieve remarkable results by helping their employees fulfill their dreams. The fictional company in this book is grappling with real problems of high turnover and low morale--so the managers begin to investigate what really drives the employees. What they discover is that the key to motivation isn't necessarily the promise of a bigger paycheck or title, but rather the fulfillment of crucial personal dreams. Beginning with the thought that a company can only become the-best-version-of-itself to the extent that its employees are becoming better-versions-of-themselves, Kelly explores the connection between the dreams we are chasing personally and the way we all engage at work.--From publisher description.

Basically it's the story of a janitorial company with huge turnover, so the owner and general manager try to brainstorm how to fix the problem. They decide to send out a survey to the employees to see what kinds of things they are struggling with. The results are surprising. Eventually they develop the dream manager program where they hire someone to help their employees achieve their dreams.
"The employees still had all the problems they'd had just a few short months ago, but now they had hope. The hope came from having a plan."
I really liked how it portrayed the employers actually listening to their employees. So many things in life could be better if we just really listened to each other. I also really like the above quote. So many people in life are just coasting and have no plan for their life and it really makes a huge difference when you're working toward something whether it be financial, physical, character etc. The writing of the story was a bit clunky and you could tell it wasn't written by a fiction writer. There are no content warnings. Overall I thought this was a great book despite the writing and I'm really excited to start my own dream book.
