The Three Secrets of Employee Engagement: Designing An Organization that Doesn't Suck
Even though the idea of “employee engagement” has been around awhile, many times our organizations aren’t as energized as we’d like them to be. Your group will discover a refreshingly simple way to approach engagement that creates a more energizing place to work and better business results at the same time. Attendees will learn: 1) What sustainable employee engagement is all about, 2) A simple and memorable framework for implementing engagement, 3) How to shift personal behaviors and instantly boost workplace energy.
This will be a unique session as there will be an artist graphically representing the session real time!

Greg is a creative visual thinker who helps to lead groups and individuals toward specified goals through the skilled use of graphics and visual language in meetings, presentations and off-site gatherings. By creating large, colorful illustrations, he organizes complex issues, key topics, and main ideas into visual form, allowing participants to see more clearly the issues before them, and to engage with the drawing's content as it unfolds. The added visual dimension helps to break down barriers and adds an element of fun, supporting more open dialogue, higher levels of collaboration, and making sessions more engaging, productive, and memorable overall.
