Connectedness (How the Best Leaders Create Authentic Human Connection in a Disconnected World)

Improve talent retention and employee productivity by encouraging connectedness in your firm

In Connectedness, British business journalist and management theorist Des Dearlove delivers an insightful and practical discussion of how firms can build meaningful and authentic connections with their employees, encouraging productivity, improving talent retention, and creating an enduring competitive advantage. You’ll find out why the latest peer-reviewed research lends support to the notion that it is the nature of interpersonal environments – and not compensation – that many employees consider to be the most impactful when they’re deciding whether to exit a job.

In the book, you’ll:

• Explore the most important factors that determine the connectedness of a healthy working environment
• Common mistakes and myths about employee wellbeing that sidetrack managerial efforts to improve working culture at a firm
• Examples and case studies that demonstrate the real-world impact of the ideas discussed in the book

Perfect for managers, executives, directors, and other business leaders seeking to improve employee retention, productivity, engagement, and health, Connectedness is also a must-read resource for employees, human resources professionals, consultants, and everyone else with an interest in employee wellbeing and workplace productivity and safety.
