- Employees must be confident that management is behind
- them. Tell employees where they can go for help.

- one tries to put in as little as possible and always
- hopes to hit the jackpot.

- * GIVE PEOPLE CREDIT FOR EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE AND
- IDEAS.
-
- * ENCOURAGE INDIVIDUALS TO FIND A MENTOR.
- A Federal Correctional Institute inmate at Lompoc told
- Pepperdine graduate students:
-
- "Wherever you end up working find a mentor.
- When you're blinded by ambition like I was,
- you need sometone to direct you when you're
- attempting to break the law."
