Customer Reviews

Same old stuff
I purchased this book and I want my money back. The book is clearly written, yet it repeats and repeats things which we all know and things the author keeps repeating in all his well-worn works. Instead of 200-plus pages, it could have been done in 20.

very hands-on, practical --- real-life effective ideas
This book was enlightening. I never knew there were so many easy and low cost ways to energize employees --- and Bob shows you all of them plus more. A must-have for today's best managers. A great follow-up to Bob Nelson's best-selling "1001 Ways to Reward Employees."

Excellent "toolbox" filled with creative ideas.
1001 ways to Energize Employees is an excellent follow-up and companion to Bob Nelson's first book, 1001 Ways To Reward Employees. The current book is focused more on morale building, and gives 1001 fresh, new ideas for building morale in individuals, teams, and organizations. Bob Nelson knows that the best way to build morale is to reward and recognize performance. These books contain 2002 excellent "tools" which can inspire every manager with creative ideas. A must-read.
