Studies by organizations like Gallup reveal that most American workers are just putting in enough effort to collect a paycheck (approx. 74%). This epidemic is commonly called employee disengagement and it’s costing billions, if not trillions in lost productivity.

Excerpt from page 12…

One way you can design jobs to remain challenging and give your employees a feeling of significance, is for the work itself to be rewarding–even if the job itself is somewhat mundane or repetitive. Here are seven ways to do that:

• Be flexible in your work processes. If the outcome you want can be reached in different ways, and it doesn’t compromise quality, timeliness, etc., let them try their way.

• Focus on making the work environment more satisfying while trying to restructure the job related tasks to be more rewarding. If you can remove a responsibility or activity that an employee doesn’t like, and it won’t hurt to delegate it to someone else, do it. Both employees may find the restructured tasks very fulfilling.

“I personally guarantee your satisfaction. If you use the ideas I offer and you still don’t see any results or benefit after 45 days, I’ll  refund your money immediately.”
