August 13, 2025
9:00 - 9:30 am
Join us in learning from Jan Johnson, a nationally respected voice in workplace strategy and human-centered design, to our next CoreNet IKO Coffee Chat.
In this session, Jan will explore how employee engagement, when done well, creates a meaningful impact for both workers and the organization. She’ll share three forms of engagement that give employees a valuable voice:
-- Making their work visible
-- Naming what matters most
-- Staying relevant through continuous feedback
Each approach creates opportunities for people to be seen and heard, align their efforts with business-critical goals, and remain effective in a world of constant change.
Jan will also share research on the strongest predictors of worker effectiveness and productivity as insights you can take back to your team.
Join us for a fresh conversation filled with practical ideas and deep thinking.
