Editor's Notes
- Thanks Joe – During my operations career, we spent a lot of time on metrics (books and books of them) and on accountability plans and work force management fundamentals – and FTE reduction plans to meet budgets. Which sometimes backfired due to the over time we’d have to run to meet service levels.We did get some things right, and we did spend a good deal of time listening and talking to our colleagues and trying to make their jobs easier. And if I were to boil the reason for our success down to one simple concept, it was our constant focus on making it easier on our employees to get their job done, earn incentives, learn new skills and make some friends in the business.It turns out, we were on to something and the Gallup Organization and the Corporate Executive Board have recently release some excellent research that builds upon our CSAT and NPS initiatives to target what really matters to employees and customers – and therefore, better tune our business models and more accurately predict revenue and loyalty growth.

- Turns out there are 12 specific questions that help you measure the level of engagement your employees have with regard to working at your company – and they allow you to know where you’re falling short or doing well with regard to getting the most out of your human capital:These questions measure an employee’s feeling that they:Get Give Belong GrowThe big ‘aha’ before we move on to Effort, is that when you score highly on both Ce and Ee, you grow at a MUCH faster clip than you competitors and your growth is cheaper to come by with a legion of passionate advocates telling your story for you.So now let’s get to the body of work around Effort and it’s impact on customer loyalty and revenue growth….
