Notă biografică
John Smythe has specialised in organisational communication and engagement. He is a founding partner of the Engage for Change consultancy. Previously he was an organisational fellow with McKinsey undertaking research into employee engagement, and John has also held senior public affairs posts for three American corporations: Occidental Oil, Bechtel Corporation and Marathon Oil. After leaving SmytheDorwardLambert in 2003, a consultancy which was acknowledged to be the thought leader in organisational communication, John was invited by McKinsey and Company to take a short term role as a visiting organisational fellow, undertaking research among sixty corporations and institutions in Europe and North America into current approaches in engaging leaders and employees in driving strategy and change. The research is available from Engage for Change. Before starting SmytheDorwardLambert in 1989 John had been behind a start up in the same field called Wolff Olins/Smythe (1985-1989). He published (with Colette Dorward and Jerome Reback, fellow founders of SmytheDorwardLambert) Corporate Reputation, The New Strategic Asset in 1989.
Recenzii
Prize: Winner of the Book Award in the Best Learning category, IVCA (The International Visual Communication Association), 2007 Clarion Awards 'In this superb book, Smythe asks what the concept of engagement means for employer and employee; looks at whether and how it is different from internal communication, and provides a practical framework for those who want to engage colleagues but need advice based on real-world experience. Thoroughly researched and well written, Smythe provides a thoughtful and compelling book on a vital business issue that all too often is overlooked.' Reviewed by John Ling in The Marketer 'This is the most significant book for internal communicators in 25 years. Not since Roger D'Aprix's Communicating for Productivity in 1982 has there been a book more likely to impact what communicators do on the job than this one...if you buy one book this decade this is the one. Strongly recommended. ' Strategic Communication Management (Australia).
Descriere
The Chief Engagement Officer explores a management philosophy which recognises the value of opening up decision making to the right groups to improve the quality of decisions and change, accelerate execution and broaden ownership; in other words, engage employees. John Smythe asks what the concept of engagement means for employer and employee; tests whether and how it is different from internal communication and provides a practical framework for those who want to engage colleagues but need advice based on applied experience.
