Event Details

Every month HR Answers provides programming written specifically for Multifamily NW members. This month's webinar will focus on the Handbook Essentials, guided by Jennifer Schoorl.

Employee engagement isn’t just about grand gestures or big budgets—sometimes, the smallest, most consistent actions make the greatest impact. In today’s economy, the hidden costs of disengagement—turnover, low productivity, workplace dysfunction, and poor management—can quietly drain your bottom line.

This session takes a deep dive into both the human and business sides of engagement. We’ll uncover the silent warning signs of disengaged employees, explore root causes like low morale and ineffective leadership, and equip you with simple, low-cost strategies to turn things around.

You'll walk away with actionable tools to improve communication, strengthen relationships, and boost motivation across all levels of your organization—one small, intentional step at a time.

This program will explore:

  • Identify the underlying causes of disengagement, workplace dysfunction, and low productivity
  • Understand the business impact of silent turnover and disengaged employees
  • Learn how small, consistent actions can build meaningful connections and elevate morale
  • Explore practical, budget-friendly ways to recognize and motivate employees
  • Discover communication strategies to improve retention and re-engage your workforce
  • Build a framework for strengthening culture and performance from the inside out

This session is ideal for Managers, Supervisor, HR and business owners – all who are involved in recognition and retention efforts.
