Employee Satisfaction Critical to Success
According to Matthew Kelly in his book The Dream Manager, "the great majority of people in the workplace today are actively disengaged. People don't feel connected to their work, the organizations they work in, or the people they work with."

With a shortage of available workers coming online in the next 10-20 years, it is ever more critical that companies start acting today to get the current generation trained and focused on helping the company achieve its future vision. Increasing employee satisfaction helps do this by improving employee engagement in organizational success.
