Employee Engagement- HR Club Sydney Event

I’m very please to announce our second HR Club Sydney networking event for 2010; Employee Engagement – are we on the same page?

As per our other events, it’s an opportunity for you to come along and meet other people within the Sydney HR Community. Remember, let’s practice our networking skills- not just turn up to an event, listen and go home. It’s important to bounce ideas off other people and see what other people are doing

In April, we have James Wright from RedBalloon talking on the subject of employee engagement.

Changing people’s behaviour and motivating them to lift their discretionary effort is hard work and James has spent his whole career doing it. First designing personal development programs for hard to reach and underprivileged kids in some of the poorest regions of the UK, then a variety of roles in marketing, product development and operational development.

As Account Director at RedBalloon, James works with corporations seeking behavioural changes in their employees that result in higher engagement, increased productivity and healthier bottom lines.

James and his team at RedBalloon practice what they preach and their work has been highly regarded by industry bodies as a result. RedBalloon has been awarded a number of accolades including Hewitt Best Employer in January 2010.

SESSION DETAILS:

To be competitive in this economic climate you need to have a focused team of engaged employees who love their work and what their organisation stands for. What are the five things that RedBalloon has done to deliver an employee engagement score of over 90% two years in a row as awarded by international human capital experts Hewitt Associates (the nation’s average is 55%)?

Learning outcomes:
• How to form an attachment, emotional and rational, between your employees and your brand
• How to create a culture of recognition and fun in your workplace
• How to get your team talking about you as a great place to work
• The number one driver of engagement – no matter what the generation

Each attendee who registers via the event on LinkedIn will have RedBalloon Corporate Pack waiting for them on the night, so be sure to register!

I look forward to seeing you there.
