Thanks to my Melbourne-based compatriot, Michael Specht, I have seen this video from McDaniel Partners on the issue of employee engagement.
Riffing off the incredible Miniature Earth, it delves richly and poignantly into the lives of the people you work with every day.
It’s an unfortunate fact that most organisations simply have no idea how to engage […]

Well, I didn’t get a huge number of entries for the free pass to the Enterprise 2.0 Executive Forum in Sydney on 19 February, but those we got were pretty good and sometimes funny. I’ve decided that the winner is Jodie Miners. Here’s her entry (submitted via Twitter):
