How To Lead the Team Everyone Wants To Be On with Val Ries
Inspired employees contribute differently than everyone else. They work harder, stay later and recommend friends to the organization - and not because they are paid more. During this workshop, Val explores how to create a culture where people perform at their best by leveraging her proprietary CRAVE® model and lessons from her book: Chief Inspiration Officer.
You’ll assess your organization, see the latest statistics on employee engagement and come away with actionable ideas your leaders can apply immediately.
