Sorry but that's a pretty outlandish statement. dogs may occasionally act like people, and they may require management, but they are not people. It doesn't follow that if you can't/haven't managed dogs you have no hope with people. I've done both and it's a different ball game.
- seiji 13y agoI've worked under multiple managers who: gave no positive feedback, set no expectations, and provided no treats. That's really the minimum you should do with dogs or people.
- michaelt 13y agoHave you told your employees that you're managing them based on techniques you learned from a dog training book? How did they react?
- UK-AL 13y ago"gave no positive feedback" "provided no treats" Seriously? If you try to control people pain and reward system, most people see through it and hate you for it. You want them to have a innate feeling of accomplishment. You completed something difficult? And that felt good. You don't need cookies from a master for that. The number one thing you need to do, is set something up which they can measure themselves against. 90% of the time people will enjoy improving it, without any input.
