A Brilliant Turn of a Management Phrase

Posted on Wednesday, September 12, 2007 by Frank Roche

Jay Shepherd’s Gruntled Employees is one of my favorite reads. Jay’s the CEO of an employment-law firm and writes about what he calls, “How to keep employees gruntled.” That makes me chuckle every time I read it.

Yesterday, he wrote my favorite phrase of the year:

Ept managers lead to gruntled employees, which in turn lead to minishing profits.

Click on over and see what that means. He’s on his way to the Universal Theory of People Management.

Support this post around the web. We would really appreciate it.

    Frank, you’re the best. I really appreciate the thoughts and words. And KnowHR is one of my very favorites. Thanks again, Jay

  2. Very funny stuff. Time and attendance solutions should be able to take care of all those “gruntled” employees. If not, welcome in “minishing” profits.
