Imagine how much further you could go if everyone knew where they were going and actually wanted to get there ...

The evidence bears this out: engagement levels predict profitability. But how do you make sure people are on board? The Extra Mile shows you how to achieve that extra competitive edge by harnessing the commitment of your people, and engaging them with your aims.
