Feeling threatened, ignored, and unappreciated, invisible employees fight back the only way they know how--by staying hidden in the corporate shadows, doing just enough to get by, grumbling about this and that, and passing these techniques along to new workers. After all, why bother shining when no one notices your achievements? Why bother trying when you could be let go in the next batch of layoffs? \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e A business fable packed with hard-won wisdom, \u003ci\u003eThe Invisible Employee\u003c\/i\u003e follows a group of people who live and work together on a mysterious island. In this second edition--updated with new case studies and current survey results--managers learn how to combat one of the most common negative attitudes in business: that smart employees keep their heads down and never do more than is asked. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Bestselling authors Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton show how effective leaders change this mind-set by engaging their people in their cause--setting clear goals, encouraging productive behavior, and celebrating every success along the way. The end result is an organization of productive employees who feel noticed, valued, and appreciated. In other words, they feel visible. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In today's competitive environment, all of us are looking for the next big product, the next big capability or solution.
