<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Engagement has often been relegated to HR or was seen as a 'soft' issue. But when you build engagement into the life blood of a leader's role, you see it becomes a performance requirement and a natural part of a manager's day-to-day job. The problem? Leaders have been ill-equipped to engage, not knowing the right tools to employ or the right approaches to take. After all, so much is coming at them. How can they stop and engage? But what if they could? Leaders have often seen engagement as the outcome rather than the launchpad to build stronger ecosystems and achieve results. Manage to Engage addresses this with simple concepts like The HeadsUP High 5, behavior models like Active Management, and a unique performance improvement tool that engages as much as it brings about change: the 1.5.30 Connect--a daily, weekly, monthly routine performance review to enable people to achieve day-to-day business results.

If you have the right perks and policies, people will show up, right? Actually, the opposite is true. In her work as CEO of Proudfoot, a global management consultancy with a 75-year history of people-centered change leadership, author Pamela Hackett has learned a thing or two about improving business. When leaders focus on engagement--enabling people to wake up energized to go to work each morning, knowing they can do a great job, and to feel accomplished and supported at the end of each day--bottom line results will follow.</p><p>The problem? Today's leaders, from top executives to frontline managers, are ill equipped to promote engagement in the people they lead. We lack the frameworks and tools needed to put engagement front-and-center in our daily operations. <i>Manage to Engage: How Great Managers Create Remarkable Results</i> is a compendium of ideas and resources that will fill the engagement gap, allowing us to focus on what matters--our people--to create true advantage. From scorecards and performance improvement techniques to relationship-building advice and a global community of engagement, this book delivers a clear way to connect. When we help people build confidence and togetherness, we see them take their own roles to ever greater heights.</p><p>Thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, engagement is more important now than ever. With a giant shift to work-from-home and a crisis in employee well-being, it's become clear that engagement is needed if we are to future-proof our organizations. We can survive recessions, attract talent, achieve results, and keep our workplaces safe, all with this book of proven engagement secrets.</p><p>"Traditionally, organizational performance and productivity were seen as a function of optimized, well-designed processes that deliver the right outcomes. Kaizen, Lean, Six Sigma, are examples. Pam pays tribute to these traditional tenets yet makes a compelling case for an even more important factor, the engaged, inspired and motivated manager and employee. If you aspire to move your organization to a higher level of performance, this shows the way."<br><b> --Gordon Peeling, </b> Former President and CEO of the Mining Association of Canada, Director of Great Quest Fertilizer Limited</p><p>"Business success and competitive advantage requires a winning strategy and the ability to execute that strategy with discipline. Executives spend enormous amounts of time on the strategy and business plan, and discover they are at the mercy of their mid-level and first-line managers to execute. Key to disciplined execution is the engaged, motivated and skilled employee managed thoughtfully and consistently. This creates repeat customers, top performing operations and profitability."<br> <b>--David Turnbull, </b> Executive Chairman of Pacific Basin Shipping Limited </p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>PAMELA HACKETT</b> has 35 years of experience in management consulting.
