DETAILS: Business-critical knowledge often leaves a company along with the
departure of an employee; that's just one of the many reasons why employee
engagement and retention are top priorities. During this session, Erickson,
who has more than 25 years of experience in employee survey research,
employee assessment and leadership consulting and development, will divulge
why employee engagement is the biggest controllable factor in retaining and
motivating employees. He will cover how to engage employees to not only
stay longer with the organization but also to motivate them to be more
productive, more conscientious, less error-prone and more inclined to take
better care of customers. Erickson will also discuss how to focus these
efforts on retaining the very best people at each level within an
organization, and why turnover of the least productive employees can be
beneficial.
Additionally, Erickson will review aspects of employee
engagement surveys, a key strategy that provides employers with actionable
data on the attitude and perceptions of their employees, providing
opportunities for making important organizational changes. Session
attendees will learn about the four key components of the employee
engagement survey process: Instrument Design, Administration,
Reporting/Analysis, and Behavior Change. By the end of this session,
attendees will understand how to identify action-oriented employee
engagement plans that are specific, measurable and accountable.
