2018 Utah Library Association Conference

In this highly interactive and energized presentation, Kris Boesch weaves valuable content, enlightening stories, and tangible tools to improve your library’s workplace culture. Whereas other programs miss the mark by only talking about employee “satisfaction” or “engagement,” Boesch takes workplace culture to a whole new level well beyond compensation, basic HR practices and “perks.” She unveils why emotional intimacy is the secret ingredient to the secret sauce of workplace culture. Participants will learn how to create collaboration, camaraderie and connection amongst their teams. This “glue” results in perseverance through tough times, inspiration to go the extra mile, and retention of top talent. Participants will be able to take her specific tangible no-cost ways to create an extraordinary workplace culture and implement them within their organizations to see immediate results.
