Free Webinar Next Week: Employee Engagement During Challenging Times
Next Wednesday (September 15th) I’m going to talk about employee engagement online. The free Webinar will be at 1:00 PM EDT. If you are interested, please sign up here.
Employee engagement is a vital driver of an organization’s bottom-line results and critical outcomes—including absenteeism, turnover, customer satisfaction, and operational and financial performance. A weak economy, internal stressors, industry- and market-based changes, as well as a wide variety of management struggles all play an exacerbating role in preventing employees from being focused and engaged. But whether you’re a company executive, senior manager, HR professional, supervisor or team leader, the responsibility for keeping employees engaged often falls to you.
I’ll talk about practical techniques for keeping employees engaged and productive during turbulent times.
The Webinar is sponsored by eCornell.

Professor Bacharach:
I hope in your Employee Engagement During Challenging Times webinar you to speak to the negative relationship between employment-at-will policies and employee engagement. I have been in the HR field for 40 years and am convinced that there can be no effective employee engagement with employment-at-will hanging over the heads of employees. A return to discharge for cause, in-house skills upgrade training programs, use of company service in layoff and transfer, inclusion of self-nomination in the promotion program, and layoff with recall rights is critical to establishing truly effective employee engagement.

I don’t speak to the problem you presented. Instead, I framed the discusson around real skills that have to be learned in order for engagement to get off the ground.
Best,
