Meanwhile, most employees today feel overworked and underappreciated and are less valued and more stressed for their efforts than ever before.

This session will focus on core researched-based elements found in strong cultures of recognition and engagement that inspire employees to new levels of performance and help to create an exciting, positive work environment with a strong competitive people advantage for the organization.
