Employee Disengagement a Global Epidemic
A November, 2005 study (85,000
people-16 countries) by
consultants Towers Perrin, a global professional service firm, found that while many people
would like to contribute more at
work, the behavior of their managers and culture of their
organizations are actively discouraging them from doing so.
They
found that 55% of US employees are passively looking for new
jobs. This means they are not engaged at work and are
vulnerable to other offers.
It
shows that there is a vast reserve of untapped "employee
performance potential" that could drive better financial results
if only companies could tap into this reserve.
**Health Care Workers do not have Confidence in Senior
Management.
In their survey of 5,424 employees in the U.S.
health care they found most disturbingly for health care
institutions, that health care workers do not have confidence in
senior management. Only 43% say that senior management is
sincerely interested in employee well-being, the number one
driver of health care employee engagement. What's more, 37% say
that senior management sees them as just another part of the
organization to be managed, and 15% say that senior management
treats them as if they don't matter. Further, only 40% believe
senior management communicates honestly and openly.
The Solution
Rebuilding relationships and creating an environment of trust
and compassion will lead businesses to new levels of success. Unhappy employees do not give good customer service, do not
refer business, are not loyal, and are not productive. The cost
of replacing even one employee ranges from 30% to 200% of their
annual salary. Creating a workplace culture of honor,
respect and cooperation is needed more than ever before.
Beal's workshops and
keynote addresses on "Leading with Spirit and Compassion",
"Healing Relationships in the Workplace" and "The Compassionate Workplace" illuminate the path to authentic power and leadership.

Purpose This
book is about rebuilding relationships in the workplace by honoring the
spirit in ourselves and in others, residing beneath our self-created
identities that battle and compete for power and validation. This shallow
interpretation of ourselves, a shabby imitation we have come to believe is
true, belies our incredible authentic power. One day, when fear can be
replaced with trust and compassion for one another, there will be a shift
in consciousness. People everywhere will be restored to their true
identities, their inner spiritual greatness that was intended by the
Creator. To that end, this book is dedicated.
