Personnel Today editor Rob Moss hosted this webinar live on 13 February 2013. His guests included:
David MacLeod, chairman of Engage For Success, the government-backed employee engagement taskforce which last year estimated that the UK could benefit from an estimated £26 billion growth by better engaging its workforce. MacLeod will give an overview of the Engage for Success movement, launched last year by David Cameron, and what the business leaders, line managers, trade unionists and other engagement experts are doing to help reduce the proportion of the UK workforce that say they are not actively engaged at work.
