In other words, raising value, ownership, and rewards alone will NOT improve firm performance. ● You have to raise and balance Urgency with Value, Ownership, and Rewards. ● Balance is key to long-term success. ● Satisfaction alone can drive an organization downward because a little “friction” is needed to move forward. 5 Copyright, © 2006, eePulse, Inc. the measure of your success The key differentiator from other surveys: The 2 x 2 model Low Urgency High Urgency High employee value, ownership, rewards Low employee value, ownership, rewards 6 Copyright, © 2006, eePulse, Inc. the measure of your success Subgroup analysis is compelling Operations is doing well; 49% in high performance group and only 0% in the resisting change group.
