Mystery shoppers

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in The Engaging Manager, 2012, pp 117-119 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Mystery shopping: a serious method of gathering performance data; an alternative to appraisal; or little more than management snooping on staff? Is it really an effective new tool for coaching employee performance improvement, or yet more foolish nonsense?
