Publisher's summary

Employee disengagement is a widespread malady in today’s organizations, causing the loss of billions of dollars, hours of dissatisfaction, and work lives lacking true value. Scientific research has validated the powerful effect of emotional connections on human beings. When individuals feel a connection with their organization’s identity, their colleagues, and their day-to-day tasks, it fires them up.

Michael Lee Stallard, president of the consulting firm E Pluribus Partners and primary author of Fired Up or Burned Out, explains the ins and outs of Connection Cultures. "Connection Cultures" meet universal human emotional needs and they are ultimately grounded in the character values positive psychologists have identified as being universal. To attract, engage and retain the employees needed to meet growth opportunities, organizations must unleash the force of connection.
