Employee Re-engagement

Leigh Branham's third book, co-authored with Mark Hirschfeld, is called RE-ENGAGE. The book addresses the six rules of "re-engagement" for organizations, and is research based. It shows "how America's best places to work inspire extra effort in extraordinary times".

The six rules of re-engagment are as follows:

• Build Trust among workers, managers, and executives.
• Deal with problem employees and dysfunctional environments.
• Inspire teamwork that crosses generational lines and diversities.
• Promote excellence through training, rewards and benefits.
• Value the contributions of individuals and teams.
• Show employees that you genuinely care.

Each principle is supported by a company actually practicing it. Leigh also offers some practical suggestions for your employees.

Having known Leigh for a number of years, I know how passionate and knowledgeable he is about employee engagement. I suggest reading and keeping this book on your shelf as a reference guide.

Question for the week: How engaged are your employees?
