Book Description

Here's another management parable that draws its lesson from an unlikely source--this time it's the fun-loving fishmongers at Seattle's Pike Place Market. In Fish! the heroine, Mary Jane Ramirez, recently widowed and mother of two, is asked
to engineer a turnaround of her company's troubled operations department, a group that authors Stephen Lundin, Harry Paul, and John Christensen describe as a "toxic energy dump." Most reasonable heads would cut their losses and move on. Why bother with
this bunch of losers? But the authors don't make it so easy for Mary Jane. Instead, she's left to sort out this mess with the help of head fishmonger Lonnie. Based on a bestselling corporate education video, Fish! aims to help employees find their way to
a fun and happy workplace. While some may find the story line and prescriptions--such as "Choose Your Attitude," "Make Their Day," and "Be Present"--downright corny, others will find a good dose of worthwhile motivational management techniques. If you
loved Who Moved My Cheese? then you'll find much to like here. And don't worry about Mary Jane and kids. Fish! has a happy ending for everyone. --Harry C. Edwards
Product Description:
¿Tiene algo que ofrecer un mercado callejero a una
multinacional con problemas? Mary Jane, una ejecutiva de esa empresa, descubrirá que sí, y mucho. El departamento en que ella trabaja es temido y odiado por todos los demás empleados de la empresa. ¿Por qué? Porque en él todo se atasca y
se retrasa. Además, el personal que trabaja ahí parece perpetuamente malhumorado o desinteresado en hacer bien su tarea.
Sin embargo, Lonnie el pescadero o cualquiera de los demás vendedores no sólo parece que estén
pasándoselo bien, sino que, además, los clientes están encantados y es la pescadería que más vende. Siguiendo los consejos de Lonnie, Mary Jane logrará infundir motivación a su departamento y logrará que deje de
ser el "basurero tóxico", como lo calificaban el resto de compañeros
