Employee Engagement: Energizing a Positive Workforce
 
How Concerned Should We
 Be About This…?
 
  • Only 27% of workers worldwide are engaged in their work
  • 56% are not engaged
  • 17% are ACTIVELY disengaged
  • Only 20% of American workers feel that they work in an environment that allows them to be their best
(Sources: Gallup Management Journal &
Harvard Business Review)


What do these statistics mean for your business? For customer satisfaction and loyalty? For bottom line business results?
 
Shockingly, 17% ACTIVELY disengaged means these employees are actually working against you on a daily basis – and influencing other employees.
 
If 80% of workers think their environment is restrictive, that it’s keeping them from functioning at their best, we have some work to do!!
 
Employee engagement is certainly fostered by effective leadership, but it is also a function of how personally responsible and accountable people are or think they are.
 
ENERGIZING A POSITIVE WORKFORCE TO LEAD TO
POSITIVE RESULTS
 
When you need something that will help motivate your employees to do their best work, what you don’t want is a quick-fix workshop that’s forgotten by dinner. What you do want is a proven process to effect permanent and lasting change in each and every individual. When it improves the individual, it improves your bottom line.
 
Discover what over four million people worldwide have learned with AiA Classic (formerly called Adventures in Attitudes).
 
In 1957, Bob Conklin designed AiA to guide people through life’s most important questions. Today AiA is re-invented.
 
AiA Classic has changed lives for 50 years. You too can learn how to change your life…
 at work... or at home!
 
During this 30-Hour workshop you will move through high-involvement learning using small group interaction, shared experiences, individual and group exercises and facilitator-led discussions.
 
HOW AIA CLASSIC™
BENEFITS PARTICIPANTS
 
For more than 50 years, participants have raved about the positive effects AiA Classic has had on their lives.
 
It’s a mind-expanding experience that helps motivate people from the inside out – it engages them.
 
Each of the class’ projects leads the groups through exercises that cause participants to focus on important questions, such as:
  • How do I handle people problems at home and at work?
  • How do I solve my problems? Make decisions?
  • What is my work and what are my attitudes toward work? Do they need to be changed? How?
This understanding is the key to establishing personal responsibility and accountability in the midst of change.
 
Employees commonly express welcome surprise at the outcomes of the sessions and the impact they have on their lives. Many express heartfelt appreciation to their employers.
 
The beauty of the process is that participants come to their own conclusions, each in their own individual way.
 
It’s inspiring to see how frequently the “ah-ha” moments strike as participants come to the realization that how they perceive and respond to events is their choice.
 
 This is not your typical workshop!!!
