Einstein in the Workplace: Helping Employees Reengage through Leadership, Imagination and Excellence.

In the present state of our economy, with layoffs and re-organizations, employee morale and engagement are at risk. Employee disengagement directly impacts co-workers, the culture and the results of the organization; and most often, disengagement indirectly impacts the personal life and family of the employee as well.

In this presentation, participants will be provided with:

• Recent research on employee disengagement and the factors leading up to an improved sense of engagement.
• Ways to support employees including the use of their leadership in the workplace to stimulate their involvement and engagement.
• Practical ideas for helping employees further embrace the value of excellence and achieve greater work satisfaction.
• An exploration of the value of imagination and vision at the heart of our endeavors.
• Tools and suggestions extracted from authors such as: Peter Senge, Margaret Wheatley, Scott Peck, Thomas Moore.
