Masterclass: The Engagement Equation
Unlock the Psychological Drivers Behind a Thriving Workforce
Employee engagement isn’t a perk—it’s a strategy. In today’s hybrid world, surface-level initiatives are no longer enough. The Engagement Equation Masterclass reframes engagement from the inside out by equipping leaders with tools to address five core psychological drivers: Autonomy, Relatedness, Competence, Recognition, and Growth.
The Engagement Equation Masterclass is based on the book by the same name from Dr. Corey Pruitt.
This highly interactive experience with Dr. Pruitt goes beyond theory, guiding participants to explore the why behind motivation, performance, and retention through actionable strategies and reflective discussion. By tapping into the deeper needs that drive human behavior at work, leaders will learn to foster cultures where people feel connected, empowered, and committed to organizational success.
Through real-world examples, evidence-based frameworks, and collaborative application, leaders will strengthen their ability to inspire sustainable engagement—one conversation, one policy, one mindset shift at a time.
