Robert Wendover developed his expertise in hiring during 16 years of teaching, consulting to major corporations, and appearing on radio and television. Both of his new books are available in Crisp's popular Fifty-Minute Book format. Noting the enormous changes in the hiring field since High Performance Hiring was first published 11 years ago, Wendover emphasized that, "after you factor in the new compliance requirements Compliance requirements are a series of directives established by United States Federal government agencies that summarize hundreds of Federal laws and regulations applicable to Federal assistance (also known as Federal aid or Federal funds). and adapt to the new technologies, it is still up to the hiring manager to make the best decision." Stress That Motivates is based on a motivation system that Dr. Scott perfected and taught long before she wrote the first edition. She observed that "thinking through 'self-talk secrets' and insights will not only help employees recognize their stress triggers but will motivate them to consciously change the way they think and react to stress." The revised edition is available in Fifty-Minute Book format; a companion assessment and answer key is available as well.
