Motivating Today’s Workforce - Johnson Stephens Consulting

Jean Murphy, Editor of Supply Chain Brain, interviews Steve Johnson, Managing Principal of JSC, about Motivating Today’s Workforce.

He details some approaches that companies can use to engage and motivate these employees.

Key summary points:

1. How to motivate today’s workforce
2. How companies are managing social media usage
3. Using responsible for other jobs tasks to motivate the workforce
4. The effects of “grey collar phenomenon"
5. How loyalty is gained today by using job security

7. How “family time" has gained importance in the workforce
