(blushing) Lois, I clicked "Add Reply" before I scrolled down to see your response to the discussion. Great link and comments!

Any additional information or resea…

Jon Hoel said… - Eric, sounds really interesting.
It'd be great if you could go ahead and start discussion threads for the social media group on Aligning Technology, Strategy, People & Projects and also on social networking.
Would love to hear some case studies.

It'd be great if you could visit visit this discussion thread and tell us a little bit about your interest in Aligning Technology, Strategy, People and Projects and perhaps add a link to your blog.

- Eric,
You have a lot of great ideas/thought/insight/resources for this network. I am pleased you joined. Let me know if you want to have your blog feed up in the EE RSS Feeds - it is a strong collection of topics relating to engagement. I read your blog post on engagement in projects: that is a strong combo of trust, failure, and accountability.

Do you ever wonder how past leaders could have missed what seems so obvious in hindsight? Sadly, most leaders live in an environment that makes them vulnerable to managerial failure. The problem lies in a little-recognized reality of leadership: iso…
Dear Ray,
Your concern is well founded. Employees look forward to surveys like they do a visit to the dentist! The Horsepower Survey, however, is an employee-focused survey to measure how rewarded employees feel about their work. It consists of sev…
Mike,
I will make mention of this new group in the next newsletter. Thank you for starting this and I wish you well and all European members the best with this focus.

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.
