Open-book Management Comes To The Lone Star State
SAN ANTONIO (PRWEB) November 20, 2017 -- The Great Game of Business will host a one day open-book management training at local handcrafted smoked meat company, Kiolbassa Provision Company.
Kiolbassa will open its doors for a behind-the-scenes look at open-book management and how it gave the company the framework and momentum that led to a more engaged workforce and record sales of $55.4 million in 2016.
Three-time San-Antonio Express News winner of Top Workplaces in San Antonio, Kiolbassa credits open-book management with saving the company from extinction during a 2014 industry down-turn that wiped out five of their competitors.
“The change in our employee relationships and how we go about solving problems together has been a tremendous impact of practicing open-book management.” – Michael Johnson, Vice President of Organizational Development, Kiolbassa Provision Company
