An engaged workforce is a major competitive advantage for any business. It is clear that engaged workers work harder, produce more, generate greater profits, have more satisfied customers, have fewer attendance issues, and are better in almost every regard. Yet about two-thirds of employees are not engaged.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

Workforce engagement is a critical business imperative that impacts virtually every level of business success. Quite simply, companies with engaged workforces tend to succeed and thrive where those whose workforces are not engaged to tend to languish.
