Course Overview
Making your employees the center of your organization
Engaged employees are key to the success of any organization. Yet at many companies, employee engagement is still measured by results from annual HR surveys.
These traditional surveys are almost always long and often tedious. They are not especially accurate, since responses tend to be snapshots of current sentiments. And there’s typically little real action based on the results.
Research clearly shows that organizational performance is deeply connected to the success, wellbeing, and happiness of our people. With this knowledge, employee engagement practices are changing. Quickly. Survey methodologies—and the strategy and technology supporting these methodologies—have rapidly advanced over the past year.
