A parable about the secret to participating and motivating people to do great things in every walks of life, by the bestselling writer of Taking People With You. Based on real activities that David Novak possessed as the Chairman and CEO of Yum! Brands, this parable will empower listeners to identify the contributions of those around them to be able to operate a vehicle bigger and greater results. It's not hard, it isn't expensive, and you do not need an MBA or perhaps a position of power to do it. From the deceptively simple principle that can have a huge impact on both your daily life as well as your business. Jeff Johnson, the new CEO on the Happy Face Toy Company, has one year to save his family's famous toy company, which has fallen on hard times following the death of his dad. If Jeff fails, the whole company will fail. As he races to save his family's legacy by getting the business back on the right track, Jeff encounters downtrodden stock workers and an uninspired executive team. A birthday surprise from his grandson offers Jeff an important understanding into why business is hurting: the secret component to making people happy and engaged is missing. During his time as CEO of Yum!, Novak harnessed the power of employee popularity to revitalize the culture. The concepts he lives by, from offering personalized accolades to coaxing office culture into life, are at the core of this parable. Novak lately founded OGO Businesses, the world's first popularity brand focused on appreciating all people for who they are and what they do.
