Summary

For 20 years, the Great Place to Work Institute has  been producing annual ranking of the best companies to work for in  the US and in 38 countries around the world.  In the US,  the Institute produces the FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work  For Annual List. In 2010, the list included among its  finalists: SAS, Google, REI, Scripps Health, Hoar Construction,  DreamWorks Animation, Zappos.com, Salesforce.com, Cisco, Marriott  Interntional, American Express, Mayo Clinic, Microsoft. Drawing on  the Institute's wide and deep body of knowledge acquired in  the process of producing this ranking, Institute senior  consultant Michael Burchell and research fellow Jennifer Robin  reveal that what separates the great from the good companies to  work for is the leader's ability to create Trust, Pride and  Camaraderie in their companies.   THE GREAT WORKPLACE explains the concept of a Great Place to  Work--defined as one in which employees trust the people they work  for, have pride in what they do, and enjoy the people they work  with--and demystifies the Institute's Great Place to Work  model, developed in 1984 and validated through its enduring  resonance in both the United States and in 40 countries around the  world. It also answers the fundamental question, "What is the  business value of creating a great workplace?" and brings the  definition of a Great Place to Work alive with anecdotes, best  practices, and quotes from employees working at the best workplaces  in the US (and ranked in the list).  Companies featured in the book include: General Mills, Google,  Gore, Microsoft, PricewaterhouseCoopers, SAS, Scripps Health,  Wegman's and S.C. Johnson.  As organizations grapple with the complexity and challenges of  leveraging human capital in today's hyper-competitive work  worldand as the Institute increases its presence across the  worldTHE GREAT WORKPLACE will be the "must read" source for  understanding the essential ingredients in and trends of great  places to work.
