ABOUT THE BOOK:
Unlock the True Potential of Your Workforce
One of the biggest problems in the business world is declining employee
engagement — and Maddie Grant and Jamie Notter present a compelling alternative solution in their provocative new book. Their third book together, this one debunks a common misconception about the role of employee satisfaction and happiness, uncovers a critical mindshift for understanding engagement differently, and delivers a concrete roadmap for improving this important metric of organizational health — one that has barely moved in the past decade, despite literally billions being spent by organizations trying to improve it. Part of the Non-Obvious Guide series published by IdeaPress, this book will teach you:
- How to define employee engagement in a way that connects directly to what makes both your organization and your employees more successful.
- Why engagement surveys are so flawed and how to dig into your culture to go beyond “symptom” metrics.
- When to let those Millennials (and others for that matter) hop to a new job after two years, and when to fight hard to keep them.
- Why culture is more important than engagement and what the relationship is between the two.
- Real, proven, and actionable advice on how to actually improve engagement.
- How to drive engagement even if you’re not “in charge of” engagement at your company.
