Look around your business‎.‎ Are your people committed to your goals‎?‎ Or are they merely complying with them‎?‎ Imagine how much further you could go if everyone knew where they were going and actually wanted to get there ‎.‎‎.‎‎.‎It‎'‎s just common sense that the more committed people are to their work‎,‎ the more they‎'‎re going to put in and the more your business will get out‎.‎ The evidence bears this out‎:‎ engagement levels predict profitability‎.‎ But how do you make sure people are on board‎?‎ The Extra Mile shows you how to achieve that extra competitive edge by harnessing the commitment of your people‎,‎ and engaging them with your aims‎.‎ The Extra Mile is the result of four years of research into engagement by a joint team from Cass Business School and Towers Perrin‎.‎ This ambitious and wide ranging project drew on the results of various studies and surveys which together totalled 33 million respondents‎.‎ These hard‎-hitting statistics were supplemented by more than 50 in‎-depth interviews with executives and leaders drawn from a variety of business sectors‎.‎ You will hear from some of them in their own words in this compelling book which distils the results of the research and the interviews into a compelling and engaging read that will make managers think again about how to get their teams to go that all‎-important extra mile‎.‎
