Employee Engagement and Suggestion System

Employee Engagement and Suggestion System

Important Questions Does your organization have a continuous

improvement process? How long does it take to implement new ideas? Do you need to cut costs? Are your employees engaged at work or merely

drawing a paycheck? What barriers inhibit innovation in your

company? Does conflict exist between departments?

"One has to assume, first, that the individual human being at work knows better than anyone else what makes him or her more productive… even in routine work the only true expert is the person who does the job."

Peter E. Drucker
