Align Your Hamsters and Honeymooners:

Practical Steps to Increasing Workforce Engagement

Approved for 1 HRCI credit!

If organizations focus exclusively on the "disengaged" they miss the chance for more immediate, tangible increases in overall workforce engagement. One important but overlooked strategy: Turning happy employees who aren't doing work that matters ("hamsters" and "honeymooners") into fully engaged and productive employees. Ms. Mamallo will present a fresh way to segment employee engagement levels, share engagement drivers identified through global research, and highlight best practices for moving the engagement needle for these critical employees.

This session will help you create sustainable workforce engagement through initiatives that focus on maximum alignment and contribution, not just emotional commitment and satisfaction.
