Reihe: Management for Professionals

Engaged employees don’t just perform better—they drive higher profits, are proud ambassadors of their organization, and find real fulfillment in their work.
Yet, many leadership books offer rigid formulas or get lost in theory, lacking practical relevance.

This book takes a different approach.
Because engagement has no universal formula,   doesn’t prescribe what leaders must do. Instead, it presents the key ingredients that influence engagement, empowering leaders to craft their own approach.

Based on extensive field experience, this guide offers more than 50 best practices. Not all are essential—leaders choose which to apply and how, depending on their personality, values, context, and team dynamics. These are flexible tools, not fixed rules.

More than a toolkit, this book reveals leadership’s complexity. It provides:

• A practical framework for engagement, and guidance on Engaged Team Charters,
• Insights into psychological safety and strategies for collective success,
• And behaviors that naturally foster engagement.

Because profitability depends on engaged employees, this people-centered leadership puts trust and meaning at the heart of performance—using the right ingredients, mixed in each leader’s unique way.
