Designing Effective Employee Engagement Programs
Thursday, June 23, 2011
Registration 7:30 a.m. Program 8 a.m. - Noon
Walsh College Troy Campus
Don't blink! You might miss the economic recovery along with the departure of your best employees! For the past few years they've shouldered the burden and soldiered on - taking pay cuts, furlough days, and more responsibilities. They know it's every worker for themselves - and they will go - unless you act quickly.
Do you know what your employees are thinking? Have you identified their strengths and how they can contribute to the success of your company? A robust brand requires engaged employees, their engagement depends on attitudes and perceptions. |
Engaged employees:
- Engaged employees feel a strong emotional bond to the organization that employs them.
- Employees with the highest level of commitment perform 20 to 40% better and are 87% less likely to leave the organization.
- Employees who understand the organization's brand, make sure that their activities are contributing to expressing that brand through the customer experience.
- Engaged employees inspire company innovation.

Disengaged employees:
- Disengaged employees aren't just unhappy, they actively sabotage engaged employees, alienate customers and undermine progress and innovation.
- Employees seeking to leave your organization will 9 times out of 10 take another job with less pay and exit interviews won't reveal why.
