May 11 2020 • 32 mins

In this episode, we're talking about employee engagement during times of adversity -- and let's face it, we've all been dealing with a touch of adversity lately with the COVID-19 pandemic upending things on both personal and professional levels. With all this uncertainty, employee engagement can be a bit precarious. When people aren't engaged, productivity lags, and sales and marketing efforts can suffer.

Thankfully, we've got Jacqueline Throop-Robinson joining us to discuss how to manage employee engagement through adversity. Jacqueline, the founder of Spark Engagement, Inc., has a 30-year career focused on uplifting leaders and inspiring passionate engagement at all levels of an organization.
