We all want happier employees. But just how do we get there -- and make our companies even more profitable in the process? Well, if you're in Atlanta on April 25, you should pay close attention at a conference called Winning Workforces: A CEO Panel on Engaging all Employees to Achieve Success, held at the Georgia Tech Global Learning Center. The event is hosted by SJF Ventures, an investment fund with a socially responsible mindset headquartered in Durham, N.C., and Winning Workplaces, a nonprofit aimed at helping small and mid-sized businesses create high-performance workplaces. The workshop features 6 companies that have built successful workplaces through such strategies as employee development, philanthropy, employee stock ownership and open-book management. Among the CEOs sharing their wisdom: Trish Karter of Dancing Deer Baking Company, who has built her organization on a mission of helping solve homelessness. The keynote speaker is Corey Rosen of the National Center for Employee Ownership.
