Ep 15 Tapping the Ingenuity of All People Anne-Claire Broughton Pt 1
Episode description
Gallup reports 70% of employees are disengaged from their work. This leads to high and expensive turnover, poor productivity, and what Ari Weinzweig calls an energy crisis in the workplace. There are companies and organizations out there bucking this trend. By talking with these inspiring leaders, the goal of the Inspired and Intentional podcast is to help you know that you’re not alone. There are others that, not only, want to run a financially solid organization, but also one that intentionally inspires those on their team and in their community to significance and purpose.
