This Week’s Do One Thing (DOT)

Taken from Dr. Joey's best-seller that’s on Amazon, Small Hinges Swing Big Doors, at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CHSFYW9X

Who Should Read this Book?

Even though this is a short book that you can read in about an hour, I don’t want to waste your time if it’s not a good fit. So please do yourself a favor and read this entire section of Small Hinges Swing Big Doors to ensure it’s a wise investment of your time. If you’re like me, you’ve found lots of ways to make money, but none that create time.

I wrote this little book for three reasons:

1.??? To transform your thinking about who can create a positive work culture that increases productivity and profits. A week hasn’t gone by in the last 20+ years of my work as a culture architect that I haven’t heard someone say something like: “That’s not in my job description” or “It won’t do any good if (insert someone else’s name here) isn’t on board.” The employees are waiting on the owner. The owner is looking for the perfect employees.

Waiting and looking don’t work as culture strategies. The truth is this: Creating a positive work culture is everyone’s business.

Yes, especially yours.

2.??? To put proven positive work culture tools within easy reach of your work. Culture transformation isn’t brain surgery or rocket science despite what some people want you to think.

Do you need some guidance or mentor coaching? Of course, you’re walking uphill both ways in a foot of snow.

You’ve got this. Use the 51 DOT, small hinge actions in this little book to open the door to a positive work culture. They’ve worked since The Great Depression which was the worst global economic challenge ever. They still work today.

3.??? To inspire you to raise your hand to stop the inertia of the “work sucks” crowd and point them in the direction of easy, simple ways to join the Work Positive movement.

Somebody has to have the courage to say, “This far and no more.” There are too many Working Dead just drawing paychecks today for us to ignore this travesty any longer. If not you and me, then who will stop this madness?

If you’re still reading, let me take you a little deeper into who I wrote this little book for and how they can best benefit from creating a positive work culture that increases productivity and profits.

First, I believe most Human Resources professionals today can benefit from these small hinge, “Do One Thing” (DOT) actions that reverse the decline of engagement and satisfaction. Most of the HR professionals I talk with around the world are tired of being relegated to an inferior support role as form jockeys and law enforcers. They long to be elevated to a leadership role of creating a positive work culture that increases productivity and profits. They dream of influencing teams that attract top talent and reduce turnover.

Second, I wrote this little book for the Learning and Development (L&D) and Training and Development (T&D) professionals who are hungry for actionable tools to hand their co-workers. Those who show even a whiff of interest in being a part of the “work sucks” solution need some tools. They’re eager to move beyond performance gap programs that assume head knowledge is enough to align employee behavior with company KPIs. They seek something for colleagues to do that has a high, effective ROI.

Third, this little book is for all the small business owners trying to figure out how to keep the doors open while struggling with The Great Resignation, The Great Regret, and Quiet Quitting. They’ve never faced anything like this before and frankly don’t know how to best respond.

Here’s what they do know: they’re tired of complaining employees who are more interested in gossip, or who offended whom, or anything else but being productive at work. I’ve heard such owners say: “If it weren’t for people problems, I wouldn’t have any problems.” Yet, gnawing in the back of their mind is the reality that they are a part of the problem. They’ve outrun their headlights. They know it. But don’t want to admit it out loud.
