Event
December, 2013 Program- Southwest Washington SHRM- Vancouver, WA
The Answer is You: Developing an Engagement IQ
Presented by: Mike Cook, Founder of the AMJ Group
Topics to be covered:
Human Resource staffs everywhere are continually faced with the question of how best to bring new employees on board. What needs to happen to make sure employees maintain that first day enthusiasm?
At the same time there is the question of keeping current employees engaged.
The trap that must be avoided in either case is the one that suggests that the burden of engagement falls on the shoulders of the employer. Does the employer share this responsibility, of course they do. But measures of engagement reflect a complex relationship, not a one sided responsibility.
When is the last time you saw a question on an engagement survey that asked the employee how much responsibility they felt for their own engagement?
The answer to who is responsible for employee engagement is everyone!
In the one hour presentation your audience will be introduced to a set of guidelines and one rule that can be regularly used to
Encourage new employees to own the issue of their own engagement and show them at least some of the ways they can exercise that ownership.
Remind current employees to reflect on their own capacity for developing and maintaining an Engagement IQ
The guidelines presented are keepers that all participants will want to take away and use over and over in the own working environments to assist employees in becoming resilient to the sling and arrows of the workplace.
Recertification Credit Hours: This program has been approved for 1 General HRCI Credit Hour.
When: Tuesday, December 10, 2013 11:30 AM - 1:00 PM
Where: Royal Oaks Country Club 8917 NE Fourth Plain Road Vancouver, WA 98662
