Summary
More than a decade ago, The Gallup Organization combed through its database of more than one-million employee and manager interviews to identify the elements most important in sustaining workplace excellence. These elements were revealed in the 1999 best-seller First, Break All the Rules. 12: The Elements of Great Managing is that management classic's long-awaited sequel. It follows great managers as they implement the 12 elements to turn around a failing call center, save a struggling hotel, improve patient care in a hospital, maintain production through power outages, and successfully face a host of other challenges in settings around the world.
Gallup's study now includes 10 million employee and manager interviews spanning 114 countries and conducted in 41 languages. In 12, authors Rodd Wagner and James K. Harter weave the latest Gallup insights with recent discoveries in the fields of neuroscience, game theory, psychology, sociology, and economics. Written for managers and employees of companies large and small, 12 explains what every company needs to know about creating and sustaining employee engagement.

Good sequel!
This book is based on the Gallup managements groups survey which is the basis for the book "First, break all the rules" by Marcus Buckingham. This book takes the 12 questions from the previous book and then gives them life through examples. I won't detail the 12 as Gallup have asked reviewers not to but it's safe to say that their basis are solid and since applying them to my own business we have seen a vast drop in staff turnover, absenteeism and improvement in our bottom line.
This, the first book by Gallup and the book "strengths Finder 2.0" are a series of books that I would recommend to any manager looking to improve their management and leadership skills.
