DESCRIPTION

The impact of employee engagement has never been clearer. Engaged employees go the extra mile and their enthusiasm rubs off on other employees and customers. The energy they bring to the job improves productivity and they stay with the business longer which improves employee retention. So the question becomes, if engagement is so important, why aren't more organisations dedicated to it and why is it so difficult to sustain? Find out the secrets to employee engagement success as well as how you can remove common engagement barriers, and make it practically work for your team and workplace.

…but there is one guiding principle:

UNDERSTAND YOUR PEOPLE 20
