People Don't Quit Bad Companies, They Quit Bad Bosses

From the Orange County Register:

An interview with an expert who discovered that only 3 in 10 employees are highly motivated - and found that the discontent is directly related to dissatisfaction with their bosses.

The answer: people management skills training for managers. We've said it before - managers are trained in everything except how to manage people.

The expert is Terry Bacon, who wrote this book based on his findings.
