stoicloofah 's review for:
This book is okay. Like most business reading by professionals, the anecdotes and policies shouldn't be directly stolen, but it's worth meditating on and considering how Bock's experience might apply in your circumstance. I myself work outside of operations at a small company, which means that we have different opportunities and constraints.
Since I found most of the value in thinking on the content (rather than consuming the content directly), I have mixed feelings on the length. The text is small, so it's actually relatively long, but maybe I needed the full time to really work through it. You won't mistake this book for a humor piece, but Bock does his best to make it reasonably interesting.
So here were a few Google ideas that I found interesting and scribbled down as notes:
1. Compile an annual list of the biggest frustrations rather than direct feedback
2. The company-wide survey has questions submitted by employees
3. Separate timing for compensation changes and reviews
4. Peer reviews ask 1) 1 single thing the person should do more of 2) one thing the person could do different to have more of an impact
5. Kudos system
6. Use nudges to shape the right behavior in onboarding
