Investing in the Discretionary Effort Leadership programs for your managers and joining the world-wide discretionary effort initiative is the best way to enhance your profits.
Discretionary Effort Leadership chronicles the new work order that is emerging based on a continuous change cycle in the nature of organizational life and the expectations of the workforce.
Revolutions in technology, growth in globalization, endless business mergers and unavoidable marketplace fragmentation have fundamentally changed the nature of organizations. Simultaneously, a workforce has emerged that is more educated, mobile, diverse and discerning in work and life choices than ever before.
Whatever was left of the old industrial age social contract between employer and employee has been torched by the recession and the race to information age profitability.
Technology, globalization, mergers & marketplace demands have changed how we work.
Let us help you get a handle on the 21st century workplace. Invest in the Earn the Gift training program. Trust our over 50 years of business experience to change your culture.”
