Employee Engagement

Find your voice; inspire others to find theirs.

Stephen R. Covey, The 8 th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness

Great companies know that their innovative and competitive edge depends absolutely on the dedication of their employees. They also know they don’t get this through employee compensation. They get this from employee engagement, where employees can match their personal purpose with your company’s mission-critical objectives.

As SRI President Curt Carlson said in Martha’s book, In the Face of Uncertainty,

“There's a real need for people to do a terrific job. It drives them forward in ways you can never force on them managerially. It's when you create an organization that taps into that need then you find people who are incredibly resilient. They'll work incredible hours. They'll wake up in the morning thinking about their work. They'll suffer a hundred defeats because they see an opportunity to make an impact...when the critical organizational ingredients are in place, it's remarkable how often they'll eventually succeed.”

Where most employee engagement interventions emphasize the organizational message to the employees about how great the company is, Martha’s employee engagement initiatives emphasize the voices of the employees themselves. Using the principles of appreciative inquiry and her extraordinary interview approach, Martha helps employees make the connections themselves between their personal passion and the company’s value propositions.

Martha’s employee engagement approach is ideal for the following situations and groups
