How do I know if Lauren's talk is right for my industry?
Q.
"Energage has surveyed more than 20 million employees across 60,000 organizations over the past 14 years. We’ve learned what matters most to employees — what truly motivates them — is feeling appreciated."
Doug Claffey, The Atlanta Journal Constitution
Furthermore-"the employees used their own definition of appreciation, and even more, employees know it when they feel it. They can also readily distinguish between what’s authentic and what’s simply lip service."
If valuing and showing appreciation for your team members and independent contractors holds significance for your organization, then indeed, this talk is suitable for you.

reaffirming the company's commitment to their
well-being even beyond their time
with the organization.

In our quest for growth, we sometimes hesitate to pursue our dreams or take risks, influenced by the fear of failure or the judgments of others. Death, however, underscores the brevity of time, encouraging us to seize every opportunity that comes our way.
