by J Sterling Livingston and Harvard Business School Press

Published 3 March 2009

"Numerous studies show that people will rise, or fall, to the level where their superiors believe them to be most capable. As a manager, it is up to you to have high expectations for your employees, and to communicate those expectations to them. In Pygmalion in Management, J. Sterling Livingston urges you to understand the power you have over your subordinates' success, and use it to benefit everyone involved."--BOOK JACKET.
