It seems inevitable that the way in which the roles of leader and follower are understood, embodied and enacted will have a profound impact on what is played out in relation to engagement in an organisational context.

Let’s share favorite quotations that are somehow relevant to business. I frequently include them in letters, e-mails, proposals, and book reviews. They may not always provide a head-snapping revelation but do add some “seasoning” to the prose.
This group is for anyone who want to talk about books on engagement, work, leadership or management. You can recommend a book, ask others about a book, or join in a discussion about a book.
This group is for those who want to learn more about best practice employee recognition and to share ideas on this important engagement tool
