Recensioner
At the heart of each relationship, says McGinnis, is thefriendship factor—the essential ingredient of warmth and caring. With captivating case histories and anecdotes about such famous people as George Burns, Howard Hughes, and C. S. Lewis, McGinnis shares the secret of how to love and be loved.The first edition of The Friendship Factor, published in 1979, has sold more than 350,000 copies.
The Author writes about using methods of motivation for channeling efforts in teamwork. Enthusiasm and inspiration to succeed affect the group psychology, leading to excellence in performance. Giving direction with expectations, with the opportunity to fail and learn from mistakes, creates an environment where organizational change and development occur, and leaders duplicate mentors.
