When you think about employee engagement in your organisation, what’s your biggest challenge?
Perhaps you’re part of a team that’s trying to make engagement a priority, with mixed results. You might be working for an organisation that’s approached engagement in several ways, and yet it still doesn’t stick. Or maybe you want to improve and develop engagement in your workplace – but you’re not sure where to start.
Whatever your challenges, the second edition of Emma’s book – Employee Engagement: A Practical Introduction – can give you a helping hand.
What’s in the book?
The book takes an in-depth look at all stages of the engagement process – from planning and strategizing, to measuring success and evaluating outcomes, and perhaps most importantly, guidance on how to practically develop and improve engagement.
The updated second edition will help readers to create an effective employee engagement strategy that’s aligned to the overall goals and values of their business. Taking a pragmatic approach, the book features a range of case studies from organisations such as AXA PPP Healthcare, Capital One, Charles Stanley, EDF Energy and Marks & Spencer – enabling readers to understand the approach each organisation has taken, what they set out to accomplish initially, and the results they’ve since achieved.
This edition also features new online resources to guide readers along the way – including diagnostic tools, templates, and additional best-practice case studies.
