- Schedule for a convenient time (lunch hour? Friday afternoon?) during which it’s easy from employees to participate.
- Invite both inside and outside “exhibits” that provide information or opportunity or motivation regarding engagement. (NOTE: you need not limit the type of engagement explored to the individual’s job. Remember that employees can (and should) engage with their teams, their departments, the company, the community, their careers).
