In this course\, you will learn what employee engagement is all about\, design appropriate surveys to measure it\, and most importantly craft and implement successful engagement initiatives that impact overall business performance. \n\nCourse Methodology\nThis course uses a mix of interactive techniques such as lecturettes\, case analysis\, discussions\, group activities\, sharing experiences as well as short films about organizations that have managed to boost their employee engagement rates. \n\n\nCourse Objectives\nBy the end of the course\, participants will be able to: \n\nDefend the value of employee engagement to an organization and explain it\nDerive learning lessons from the ABC (Antecedents\, Behaviors\, Consequences) model  for engagement\nDesign\, build and implement the requirements for an engagement culture\nEvaluate and track the impact of engagement on business performance\nCraft specific HR practices aimed at increasing employee engagement\nIdentify\, develop and champion the required change initiatives\nBuild comprehensive employee engagement surveys and interpret their results\n\n\n\nTarget Audience\nManagers who want to know the secrets of employee engagement\, how it leads to improved productivity and customer service and how to encourage employees to go the extra mile.
