Discover the five key attributes of a people-centric leader and how to develop these attributes. Understand what motivates people and what drives engagement.
There exists a crisis in leadership today. According to recent Gallup polls, only 30 percent of the workforce is engaged, costing the U.S. billions of dollars in productivity every year. Most people recognize the immense value of inspired and engaged teams, but the question still persists, “How do I achieve and sustain one?” This workshop pulls together a collection of best practices from organizations across the AME who are creating a people-centric culture and leaders within their organization. Learn what it takes to create an environment in which people will flourish and the organization will thrive.
AME is committed to the people-centric leadership (PCL) movement. It feels this is an awesome responsibility to create a cultural environment in which people can realize their gifts, develop and apply their talents and feel a genuine sense of fulfillment for their contributions in pursuit of a common purpose. PCL involves employees at every level: manufacturing, office staff, management and the CEO. AME offers a variety of events to help you, your co-workers and your company to fully embrace and live the people-centric leadership way. www.ame.org/people-centric-leadership-resources
