THE CARROT GUYS
Employee Engagement
Oh sure, they have real names; but they are best known as "The Carrot Guys." And their message on employee engagement will change the way you do business.
They are Adrian Gostick and Chester Elton, authors of the critically acclaimed, best-selling business book The 24-Carrot Manager and the newly-released A Carrot A Day, a Wall Street Journal and BusinessWeek national bestseller.
As "The Carrot Guys," Gostick and Elton are recognition consultants to Fortune 500 companies and will speak to more than 100,000 people this year on the power of effective, strategic employee recognition.
Need to motivate your managers? Need to get your leaders engaged in the principles and how-to's of recognition? Bring in the Carrot Guys. No one ever regrets it. (Well, there was that one guy in Winnipeg, but who knew you shouldn't lure a polar bear into the Holiday Inn?)
In engaging, humorous and unforgettable presentations, Gostick and Elton bring to life the power of the almighty Carrot.
Their memorable addresses are the perfect fit for keynotes, leadership training seminars and workshops.
