"His candid insight . . . transforms the boardroom business as usual attitude and leads your corporation to a higher platform of performance." —Dr. Norman (Chip) Harbaugh, MD, FAAP, CEO/Chairman of the Board-Emeritus/Founder, Kids Health First It's time to look at a typical day at work in corporate America and how bad habits, bad procedures, and bad communication creep into the workplace, undermining productivity. Business experts agree that procedural inefficiency is an all-too-familiar theme in today's workplace and that eliminating it is one of business managers' most important responsibilities. The Corporate Drain provides business leaders with tools to recognize problems and tips for raising efficiency and improving performance, such as: Unclogging the flood of information (emails, paper reports, meetings, and conference calls) Maximizing the potential of each employee using cost-effective incentives How training can never be underestimated or over-applied The globalization of the business world challenges American companies to observe and understand how cultural diversity affects their operations. Author Yoel Yohan, raised in India and educated at a British military school, accredits his successful career at global giant, United Parcel Service, in part to his own cultural diversity. In The Corporate Drain, Yohan provides powerful examples and tools for profitable growth in today's international marketplace. "Addresses the shortfalls in corporate America and uses a common-sense approach in fixing workplace problems. Yoel integrates appropriate humor and not only educates but entertains as well." —Bill Ribble, former UPS VP "Yoel has captured the essence of American corporate culture. His recommended solutions can be easily implemented in any business." —Atif Abdulmalik, CEO, Arcapita Bank
