I agree with Mr. Einstein. Most incivility exists because it is tolerated. I appreciate the extra info on #3. Thanks Robert.

I don't like to make counter offers. A counter offer basically says, "I've been under paying you all this time, but now that you are threatening to leave, I'll start paying you what you're worth." How good can the employee feel about that? Not a g...

Agnes, In my experience the reason most employee surveys are of little value is that nothing is done with the results. Sometimes select information is shared. Sometimes action plans are even put together. However, in the majority of cases, the wor...

Welcome Nick! Nice to put a face to your name after reading your book, Lead Well and Prosper. (Now that I think of it, it might have your picture in it but I lent it out to a colleague so don't remember right now). Anyway, great to see you join the network here!

Hi Nick - Glad to see you joined the EEN. From reading your book Lead Well And Prosper I know you'll have great things to add to the discussions here. Here are a few groups you might be interested in:

Employee Engagement Writers
This group is for people who write blogs, books, or other resources on employee engagement.

Engaging Books
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.

And of course there are many discussions and other groups you might be interested in . Take your time, settle in and get your engaging on ;)

Take care Nick!

Hi Maggie, Most 360 software is more expensive then that- at least if you want 360 software that is super easy to set up and comes with preloaded questions and is designed for 360 surveys. (see halogen, sumtotal, etc...) If you've got your own que...
