animal rewarded for good behaviour will learn much more rapidly and retain what
it learns far more effectively than an animal punished for bad behaviour (Fundamental
Techniques in Handling People, Brian Elfstrom). If you criticize your
staff:
-
You dont make lasting changes
-
They will resent you, resulting in lower productivity and employee morale

SSW Software Audit
|
|
|
Companies from across the globe have been taking advantage of SSW's Software
Audit Services. The common message that is received from clients is that
getting their software built in-house can sometimes lead to a failure to
identify design flaws and architectural insufficiencies. They need an unbiased
second opinion from a knowledgeable source that can make recommendations to
improve the quality of their software.
