If Not You, Who? Cracking the Code of Employee Disengagement (Sec

Companies in the top tier of employee engagement outperform their peers by 147 percent in earnings per share and have a 90 percent better growth trend than their competition. However, only 20 percent of global workers are engaged. How do you inspire employees to get off the sidelines and get into the game?

With three decades of leadership coaching, speaking, and most importantly, real-life, in-the-trenches global Fortune 500 business experience, Jill's view is radically different. She shares with readers that although HR 'owns' culture change, they do not own culture change. Employees will not give it their all each day unless senior leaders and managers shift how they manage people.

Jill Christensen has uncovered four simple principles to turn 'checked out' workers into a unified high-performing team, and the four leadership traits you need to be trusted. By cracking the code of employee disengagement, you will increase company performance and profits, customer satisfaction, productivity and retention.  And decrease quality defects, safety incidents, theft, and absenteeism.

The first edition of this book was released in March 2016.  The third edition was published in April 2026.
