Our chapter's own Cris Wildermuth and her husband, Mel, recently wrote an article which was included in the January ASTD magazine, T&D. You can find a copy of the article here.
Cris describes the article this way, "Lately researchers and human resource professionals have become increasingly interested in Employee Engagement. Engagement, which is defined by experts as a strong psychological connection between the person and her work, is the ultimate win-win phenomenon. Engaged employees are not only happier, more passion, more excited about their day-to-day activities -- they are also more productive, less likely to leave the organization, and more committed. This article describes engagement and connects it to 10 "M's" -- these are organizational, job, and individual factors that lead to engagement.
After reading the article, what do you as a training, HR, workplace performance or OD person think about your role in promoting employee engagement in your organization or the organizations with which you consult? Do you have additional ideas about what creates employee engagement? Please share your thoughts with us.
