Thank you Bob. Would love to hear your words of wisdom & advice. Is there anything you'd add to the e-book? Anything you disagree with or would change?

Wendy,
Excellent work. Having been through 9 separate layoff cycles at IBM earlier this decade, the ability to proactively engage the remaining troops and provide leadership through the change impacts are critical for morale and maintaining focus...
Thank you so much David. Our hope is that getting this into the hands of managers will increase the likelihood that conversations that address the emotional aspects of layoffs will start to happen!

Hi Wendy:
This is a very fine looking resource. You and your partner, Deanna, did a very nice job with this and I appreciate you making it readily available. I plan to feature this in the next network email.

Are you seeing signs of “layoff survivor sickness” in your workforce? Are fear, depression, and anger preventing people from being productive? How can you motivate and retain your remaining employees? My colleague, Deanna Banks, and I have spent t...
Thanks for sharing. This would be fun to use in a training class . . . Should the manager meet with the employee? What should he say? What outcome is he looking for?

Glad you've joined us. I'm interested in your definitions/concepts of "engage" and "align". I'm sure I'll learn something.

- Wendy,
I am pleased you joined the network and look forward to your participation.
I visited your website. I am glad you put your picture on this site as I found the header bars associated with each topic on your website a little disconcerting with the people in the shadows.
I know it was very artistic and attractive yet I see what you do as really bringing people out of the shadows into engagement.

Thanks a lot for your help !
I actually did have a look on Gallup's 12 Questions, the only worry is that it measures more the enablers of employee engagement than employee engagement itself. I have however grouped the items into themes, and only o...
