AND ABOUT THE PROGRAM:

As organizations continue to compete for top talent, they also seek to retain this talent, especially when in an increasingly competitive environment. This interactive session will showcase how leaders can benefit by ensuring that they, and their employees, are engaged and inspired to do their best work. An engaged workforce is critical because having employees who quit and stay is far worse a problem than employees who quit and leave.

If you want to build an engaged and inspired workforce, begin by measuring the current strength of your organization so that you can effectively gauge the impact of your efforts over time. After discovering the 10 key components of an effective engagement strategy, apply them within your team and across your organization to greatly enhance culture, productivity, and overall revenue growth. This program will help you:

• Realize how an effective engagement strategy can greatly enhance the culture, productivity and overall revenue growth of an organization.
  
• Understand how to measure the strength of your organization before implementing a solid strategy, so that the impact of the effort is realized and it continues to move in a positive direction.
  
• Learn and apply the framework of a successful engagement strategy within teams and across the organization, also recognizing that when engagement issues arise, specific tactics can be used to work through and overcome them.
  
• Discover ways to leverage our talents to cultivate a culture that is rich in engagement, satisfaction, effectiveness and commitment.
