In many studies in many countries over the last five years, CEOs have declared their single biggest problem is employees.  It’s hard to know from the data what “biggest problem” means:  is it recruitment, retention, morale, satisfaction, skill sets, leadership style…or my current personal favorite commitment and engagement?  We don’t know.

But we do know that the great majority of CEOs are not turning to their Human Resources Department for help.  Wow.
