Employee engagement can boost the value of a dealership’s human capital

Employee engagement can boost the value of a dealership’s human capital

Two years ago, I joined the crusade to help business owners, CEOs, CFOs, and CHROs (i.e., CXOs) discover the business strategy of “engagement” and the science of behavioral economics as a way to improve business performance. If you are buying or selling a dealership, or are simply looking for ways to improve profitability and performance, engagement can give you a way to validate value and give you a competitive edge.

The Missing Links in Leadership Development: Action & Engagement

The Missing Links in Leadership Development: Action & Engagement

As a former program manager of a community leadership program I often asked our guest speakers to define leadership.

Are your dealership’s customers satisfied or are they engaged?

For years, we’ve been chasing Customer Satisfaction in the automotive industry. Here’s my question – Why are we aiming so low? Satisfaction is meeting the most basic of customer expectations.
