Why Your 'Employee Engagement Problem' Is Really a Perception Problem

· 1 h 0 min · Season 3 Episode 239

Show notes

If your team's disengaged and your culture feels cold, it’s not an HR problem. It’s a perception problem.
In this transformative conversation, leadership expert Scott Doggett reveals how shifting your perspective on people can unlock unparalleled engagement, retention, and growth.

For decades, businesses have poured millions into engagement programs, yet disengagement persists. Scott, author of Priceless, challenges this approach, arguing that true revitalisation comes from seeing every individual as 'priceless' – not just a resource to be managed. Discover how to move beyond fear-based leadership, empower your people, and build a thriving, soulful organisation.
