Employee Engagement - WHY Is Your Boat Still Sinking?

Only 32.5% of employees are currently engaged and close to 2 out of 10 are actively disengaged according to 2016 Gallup research. Since our 2014 YouTube video, "Who's Sinking Your Boat?" went viral, we simply haven't seen much improvement in employee engagement in the workplace - in spite of billions of dollars being spent on employee engagement in the workplace, and a vastly improved economy. Why you might ask? Watch our latest video "Why is Your Boat Still Sinking?" and you might just find the secrets to engagement. Based on Bob Kelleher's latest book, I-Engage, Your Personal Engagement Roadmap, and the latest employee engagement research from The Employee Engagement Group, Gallup, and many others (see sources below), we believe our latest video provides valuable insights for you personally, as well as for your organization.
