To create a sustainable, innovative and high-performing organizational culture, businesses need to focus on both engagement and energy — essentially, moving beyond engagement as we know it today, says Brady G. Wilson, co-founder of Juice Inc., a corporate training company in Ontario, Canada.
Our regular feature of non-cash incentive ideas from our advertisers is always a good starting point for increasing engagement and generating workplace energy. This month, we are also including ideas from Wilson on how business leaders can change how they approach engagement and put energy first. He is the author of “Beyond Engagement: A Brain-Based Approach That Blends the Engagement Managers Want With the Energy Employees Need.” For additional insights from Wilson and his colleagues at Juice, visit his blog at juiceinc.com/blog.
