Don’t miss this highly entertaining and informative presentation featuring Scott Christopher, co-author of the best-selling book “The Levity Effect: Why It Pays to Lighten Up” and Jamie Naughton, “Cruise Ship Captain” at Zappos, one of Fortune Magazine’s 2010 “100 Best Companies to Work For.”
Christopher offers seriously funny proof that – even in a tough economy – employee engagement and recognition should remain a strategic business priority. Not only does a fun and appreciative workplace boost morale and strengthen company culture, but it can also increase productivity and impact the bottom line. Naughton will share how Zappos’ unique company culture encourages employees to have fun and be “weird” in order to encourage involvement and drive innovation.
Topics of discussion will include:
- Case studies from several leading companies and data from the Best Places to Work Institute
- Tips for offering meaningful “latitude” and “gratitude” – and how to determine if it’s working
- Online tools and fun ideas for engaging employees and recognizing employee contributions
Featured Speakers:
- Scott Christopher, regular columnist for Workplace HR magazine and co-author of the best-selling book “The Levity Effect: Why It Pays to Lighten Up"
