Course Details
Who Would Benefit from this Course?
This workshop is designed for supervisors, managers, directors, chairs and deans who want to build employee loyalty and retention.
Course Overview
Employees who are highly committed to the work of your team will create more innovation, go the extra mile to contribute to the team’s success, and are less likely to leave. This occurs when highly committed employees offer their “discretionary effort,” described as voluntary effort given beyond the expectations of the job description.
Managers can create an environment that promotes discretionary effort and talent retention by adopting an approach called employee engagement.
This course will review the benefits of employee engagement efforts, and describe the manager characteristics that promote discretionary effort and employee retention.

Define the business case for employee engagement
