The Engaging Leader The Engaging Leader: Winning with Today's Free Agent Workforce
The free-agent-minded workforce understands that supply and demand rules; when they're not needed, they'll be gone. As a result, experts say, only about one-third of all workers are committed to their jobs. More than half are constantly scanning the job market, and the most highly desirable employees believe that career security rests within themselves, not with their organizations. Today's business leaders have almost no experience leading these "free agents," says author Ed Gubman, borrowing a term from professional sports. Yet, an organization's success depends on inspiring, engaging, and retaining the best talent it can hire.
