Here are five lessons in employee engagement from the TV mini-series ‘Band of Brothers’:

Lesson 1: Having a great leader at the top is critical to achieving extraordinary results.

Lesson 2: Middle and line-managers (NCOs) drive results – as well as engagement.

Lesson 3: Every member of the team must believe and understand the company’s purpose.

Lesson 4: Poor leaders destroy morale and confidence.

Lesson 5: Training and development is key – as is getting the right people in place, and liberating those who are wrong for the position.
