So you're a leader of people--sometimes referred to as a manager. How you do what you do is a function of a lot of different factors, culture, how you were trained, what your peers are doing, what you think others think you should be doing. All those factors can lead to a lot of motion and the expenditure of energy, but not always things that matter. "People create all value" and "People leaders do people things" Join us for a fresh perspective on what it means to be a people leader.

It's time for your employee engagement survey. What are you going to ask? Do you even know? If you can't dictate what questions are asked do you know what to do with the results? Some organizations go into great detail about everything from thoughts about pay and benefits to your best friend at work. In this session, we'll talk about what questions matter, which ones don't and what you do with the results when you get them back.
