Building Blocks: Hiring and Corporate Culture

NACS Coca-Cola Retailing Research Council study shows how two key factors can contribute to employee engagement.

May 10, 2016

ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Developing a culture of engagement in your company leads to financial success and a healthier business. That’s what the NACS Coca-Cola Retailing Research Council project on building a culture of engagement found. The results are shared in a three-part guide that includes testimonial videos and research results.

The second phase of the work, “How Employee Engagement Works,” is broken into five lessons. Each segment, narrated by Dr. Blake Frank of the Gupta College of Business at the University of Dallas, serves up clear, practical insights that will benefit anyone supervising people in the convenience store business. The segments cover what employee engagement is, how it impacts business performance, the organizational building blocks required to create it, and how to get started.

Evidence shows that higher levels of employee engagement will help you grow your business. If you think there’s potential here for your company, you’ll want to look at the building blocks that combine as a foundation for driving employee engagement and improving results for business growth.

Released this week, Dr. Blake’s third presentation on “Building Blocks: Hiring and Corporate Culture,” shows how hiring and corporate culture contribute to employee engagement. You’ll also see what’s needed to build a company culture where leaders and managers behave in ways that encourage engagement among both new and longer term employees. It’s often the little things that make a difference.
