Should we be introducing a new term for fully engaged employees? Read the article posted by Michael Sabastian and make up your mind. http://ping.fm/AxjcN

Don't have time for the entire article? Here's a quote from the author to give you the gist of it:

"So, it seems engagement in the traditional sense and the corporate sense are similar. Someone who is “engaged” in the corporate sense is much like a man or woman engaged to be married, which means they are committed—to a point. But they aren't committed to the fullest extent, which is marriage.

And that brings me to “employee marriagement,” a new term (I think), which means someone who is fully committed to the company in a lifelong “for better, for worse; for richer, for poorer” kind of way.

How many of your employees are married to your company? Is it time you launched an employee marriagement program?

Great article from Kaihan Krippendorff. Storytelling really is fundamental to communication and learning. http://ping.fm/rrM8z
