But it is largely unknown to employees and seemingly unrelated to their daily jobs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs a result, while employees may possess the knowledge and skills to do their jobs, they are unaware of what bestselling customer service author Steve Curtin calls job purpose: how their specific tasks contribute to the organization’s \u003ci\u003ereason for being\u003c\/i\u003e.

The Revelation Conversation is a one-on-one exchange where leaders and managers involve employees in the discovery of their total job role, connect job duties to job purpose, and inspire greater employee engagement. Instead of just having assignments to work on, they now have a purpose to work toward. Service quality goes from transactional to exceptional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book contains dozens of examples of how leading companies link their corporate ideals to employees’ daily job responsibilities. By creating an environment for employees to do work that matters rather than simply check boxes and go through the motions, employers will reap the benefits of higher levels of employee engagement, productivity, and customer satisfaction.“A slogan won’t change your company, but the thoughtful, compassionate, and difficult conversations described in Curtin’s book will.
