“Why is it necessary to spend £6 billion speeding up the Eurostar train when, for about 10 percent of that money, you could have top supermodels, male and female, serving free Chateau Petrus to all the passengers for the entire duration of the journey?” And with that question, Deloitte skillfully demonstrates the art of the engaging, relevant, and memorable opening.

In this report, Deloitte demonstrates best practice in using survey data: Data is used to underpin key messages and insights from Deloitte’s experts and not, as we often see elsewhere, as the focus of the report. The report also includes interesting and insightful interviews with leaders of corporate development.
Each section ends with “actions for leaders to consider”, which flow naturally from the preceding content and are clear and actionable.

Starting with the cover page, Korn Ferry Hay Group makes a compelling case for why this piece of thought leadership is well worth the reader’s time. It’s a strong argument that continues on to pages 2 and 3 where we are introduced to external experts who were heavily involved in the report; highlights of related research; an iteration of what the reader can expect in return for her time; and a call for readers to make the link between employee engagement and customer experience.
