The Velvet Revolution at Work and The CEO: Chief Engagement Officer: 2-Volume Set (Paperback, New edition)

John Smythe's two book collection offers a complete perspective of ideas, insights and advice from this award-winning author, one of the pioneers of pragmatic employee engagement. You may be a senior executive wondering how to engage hundreds or thousands of employees in your vision, strategy or the transformation of the business; or a specialist in HR, communication and change, tasked with the challenge of 'aligning and mobilising' your people. In either case, you no longer want compliant people, you want individuals who will engage their creativity at work. For their part, engaged employees want a say in their work and in how the business changes. The Chief Engagement Officer explores a management philosophy which recognises the value of opening up decision making to the right groups to improve the quality of decisions and change, accelerate execution and broaden ownership. In The Velvet Revolution at Work, John Smythe follows up his earlier book to explain that the essential ingredient of the right conditions is a culture of distributed leadership which enables people at work to liberate their creativity to deliver surprisingly good results for their institution and themselves. Using models, examples and anecdotes from his client research he goes on to demonstrate exactly how to design an engagement process; one that is integrated with your business strategy and that is sustainable.
