About the Book:
The perils of a disengaged workforce are well known-low productivity, high employee turnover, and failure to meet organization-wide goals. Less well known is what to do about it. How do you create a workforce that is always ready, able, and eager to take the organization to the next level?
You have to create a MAGNETIC CULTURE.
As CEO of leading employee survey and HR consulting firm HR Solutions, Inc., Kevin Sheridan knows how it's done-and in Building a Magnetic Culture, he shares all his secrets.
Building a Magnetic Culture explains what engages and motivates employees and how to create an environment in which employees can thrive. Drawing on years of research and real-world examples from his consulting experience, Sheridan gives you the strategies and tactics you need to transform your company by creating and sustaining a Magnetic Culture.
Providing benchmarking and best practices, as well as interviews with executives and HR professionals at companies that boast the highest levels of employee engagement, Sheridan outlines an easy-to-follow plan that:
Attracts the most talented people-and retains them
Makes employees feel they are part of the value that their organization creates
Increases Employee Engagement and drives productivity
Boosts creativity and problem solving
According to HR Solutions' own employee survey results, actively engaged employees show four times more satisfaction in their work and are four times less likely to leave than disengaged employees are. Is there a reason not to make building a Magnetic Culture your top priority?
Simply put, organizations that place a high value on actively cultivating a culture of engagement stand apart from their competition and enjoy superior business results.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent and tactical recommendations, based on case studies. If you’re into building a culture that works, this is a great book to include in your arsenal. I work in a large healthcare organization. I wish they had a follow-up based solely on their healthcare clients.
