- Cindy,
I would like to conduct an interview with you for my site: Employee Engagement: Results That Matter.
I think the title of "Make Their Day." is powerful and catchy. It would consist of about 5 to 7 email questions. Let me know if you want to make my day.

- Cindy,
You don't look like Clint Eastwood and of course it is not about make me day it is about make their day. I am so pleased that you joined this network. I love the title of your book. Keep making their day and I hope you have a Good Ground Hog Day!

Jason:
Good points about trust and aligning the strategic engagement with employee engagement. We need results for all.
I am concerned you will lose readers due to lack of formatting on this post. I encourage you to ensure that you format your pos…
Thanks for sharing this information, Roy.
When I was Research Director at The Loyalty Institute, we found that the #1 driver of employee commitment was an organization's efforts to build a sense of spirit and pride. This was true in the US as well…
As a survey consultant I guess that I should like the idea of conducting monthly surveys, but I am concerned that employees may feel that they are being "over surveyed."
There are options, of course. An organization might randomly assign each emplo…
This is a great read, a great story. I smiled the whole time as I read this. If this conversation is possible in your organization, then I'd say your leadership is trusted and transparent. Thanks for this story.
I won't be wishing you "Season's Greetings" or "Happy Holidays" this December. These secular, generic salutations are popular in corporate America because they are not specific to any one religion or belief system. The business world, like America's…
Hello Paul:
"if you want to improve productivity and reduce costs, you need to
tap into human nature’s pleasure-fueled engine."
I could not agree more but if we wait until after we hire someone we have waited too long.

"If managers cannot commit, then they shouldn’t expect their employees to commit either."
Well said and very true. I much enjoyed your article and share your views.
Bob Carpenter's experiences in turnarounds are the same as mine although I only di…
