Nothing can be more fun and rewarding than writing a book with colleagues who challenge and inspire you to be more, do more, and learn more. That is exactly how I felt about embarking on this book journey with Jo Dee and Megan! Having worked with them for several years in driving the human resource profession to be more people focused, I was thrilled to collaborate with them to coauthor a book about JoyPowered Organizations. What is JoyPowered Organizations about? It is about people—specifically the people that make our organizations a success…and that is everyone in our workplace. In my years of interacting with leaders, I have made a point to say we cannot forget about the people who make the organization work. Without them we simply cannot exist. So why are we not focused on creating environments that encourage and value them? JoyPowered Organizations helps leaders understand why people are so important and how we can create strategies to attract, retain, develop, and promote them. Finding strong talent is increasingly more difficult—that is why we have to create workplaces where people do not want to leave, and others want to join! |
