Online Webinar – Recorded September 24, 2014
Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 PDU Category C  – Free PDU
Presented by Cisco Webex Online

1. What makes an organization a great place to work?
2. What is the process that individual employees go through in determining that?

Those are the questions that researchers at The Ken Blanchard Companies® set out to discover over the course of a seven-year research project to identify the organizational, job, and relationship factors that lead to Employee Work Passion.

In this webinar, Dr. Drea Zigarmi, (kenblanchard.com bio) Founding Associate and Director of Research for The Ken Blanchard Companies will present the research that sheds light on the process that individual employees go through in determining whether critical factors are present in a specific work environment.

He will use the Employee Work Passion model to show how an individual appraisal of organizational and job characteristics leads to positive or negative intentions, behaviors, and subsequent organizational or unit results.

Participants will explore:

• Why Leadership Matters—how strategic and operational leadership behaviors impact Employee Work Passion
• The Employee Appraisal Process—how perceptions of the work environment lead to positive or negative employee intentions in five key areas
• The Employee Work Passion Model—12 work environment factors all leaders need to know, evaluate, and plan for
• Four Critical Implications—and how to get started
