Employee Engagement in the Mobile Age (On-Demand Webinar & Presentation)
Webinar Overview
Companies are losing hundreds of billions of dollars every year due to a lack of employee engagement. With Millennials expected to comprise 75% of the workforce by 2025, they are demanding that their employers provide them with the tools they need to be productive and engaged. However, a recent study conducted by theEMPLOYEEapp of over 300 communications professionals shows that current employee engagement tactics are just not getting the job done. The webinar takes a deeper look into these survey results and see how they stack up against real world examples presented by fellow communications professionals.
