I have collaborated in many ways with the Gallup Organization since 1998 when they first released "First, Break All the Rules." I used the Q12 in my doctoral dissertation and have always been willing to share my data with Gallup (as if they need it)…
This is a group for people interested in research on employee engagement. You can offer the latest sources or discuss the results.

But the company person, CEO or executive…
Do two things: trust your employees unconditionally and give them more responsibility than they would ever expect; they will rise to the occasion and surpass all expectations.
