Learning Objective

  • To recognize how a lack of employee engagement deteriorates company morale.
  • To analyze the part the human mechanism plays in business.
  • To use traditional weaknesses in employees as strengths.
  • To implement a human connection strategy in your office.
  • To also increase diversity through a human connection strategy.

Course Overview

Every year, millions of dollars are lost because two-thirds of America’s workforce claims they are not engaged in their work and are just going through the motions. Many companies understand there is a problem but they are baffled as to how to solve it. 

Engaged employees make the difference between a company that’s just getting along and one that’s built to excel. Engagement correlates with productivity, customer service, and profitability. So, for example, organizations with strong employee engagement scores generate revenue growth at a rate 2.5 times higher than companies with lower marks, according to a report.

Many factors can impede meaningful engagement. These include organizational tumult, distrust of managers, job market unease, and a lack of cohesion among workers and teams. However, organizations that try to buy their employees’ enthusiasm and commitment are likely to be disappointed. While higher pay and better benefits generally improve a worker’s satisfaction and overall contentment, they don’t truly drive engagement and the extra effort that comes with it, engagement experts say.

So how can we go beyond office pizza parties to get to the emotional core of our employees? And what are the most important factors of employee engagement?

The good news is that companies can improve engagement by paying more attention to their employees. The great news is that doing so doesn’t have to involve spending large sums of money. Rather, leaders must act deliberately and thoughtfully.

Key Topics Covered: 

  • Employee Engagement Solutions
  • How do you make people care about one another?
  • How do you get that Positive Flow of Information Moving?
  • Art of Chit-Chat
  • Do we really know how to do Diversity?

This PDC/RCH course examines how a simple change in company culture can change the productivity of your entire workforce.

This was a great way to teach how to not only be someone that engages, but encourages staff engagement. As an executive not only covering the financial health of an organization, but the cultural health, this course gave me a lot to review.

Erica did a great job with presentation. The information was relevant, and in some cases personal. The personal experience that Erica shared is something that many of us can relate to and I appreciate her candidness.
