|
|
Overview
In this book, Claire Cahill offers business and team leaders a unique process for raising the performance of their staff using a coaching based method called the Ignite Programme. By implementing a range of carefully selected coaching skills and tools, Claire shows how any leader can bring about fundamental change within an unengaged or dysfunctional team. Empowering Employee Engagement reveals the combination of theory, case study and methodology used during a 12 week experiment to take nine individuals from disempowered to engaged. It shows the approaches, strategies, tools and methods used to bring about change for both the individual team members, the business as a whole and for Claire herself. As such, this book forms an open case study and management guide for any team leader or business manager wanting to bring about significant changes in team and business performance. |
