The Truth About Employee Engagement was originally published as The Three Signs of a Miserable Job.

A bestselling author and business guru tells how to improve job satisfaction and performance.

In his sixth fable, bestselling author Patrick Lencioni takes on a topic that almost everyone can relate to: job misery. Millions of workers, even those who have carefully chosen careers based on true passions and interests, dread going to work, suffering each day as they trudge to jobs that make them cynical, weary, and frustrated. It is a simple fact of business life that any job, from investment banker to dishwasher, can become miserable. Through the story of a CEO turned pizzeria manager, Lencioni reveals the three elements that make work miserable -- irrelevance, immeasurability, and anonymity -- and gives managers and their employees the keys to make any job more engaging.

As with all of Lencioni's books, this one is filled with actionable advice you can put into effect immediately. In addition to the fable, the book includes a detailed model examining the three root causes of job misery and how they can be remedied. It covers the benefits of managing for job engagement within organizations -- increased productivity, greater retention, and competitive advantage -- and offers examples of how managers can use the applications in the book to deal with specific jobs and situations.

My great experience with Asurion
Very easy to use, no hassle, everything was done quickly online (5 minutes or so), and the reimbursement check was received promptly. Exactly as advertised. Make sure you keep your Asurion info in a folder that you can easily find in a couple of years. I guess it matters on what you are protecting, but for me and my gaming chair, this was so worth it, worth it, worth it!

ASURION REFUND
I couldn’t be more pleased with ASURION. I had a 3 year furniture protection plan, when I emailed them with my problem they did not hesitate. I got a response from them quickly. It is well worth the money to get a Protection Plan. I received a check from ASURION for the price I had paid.

A must have
I thought this was going to be a waste of money but I couldn't have been more wrong. I purchased this for a piece of furniture and after about two and a half years the piece started falling apart. So again I thought I was wasting my time but I called them up and the person that answered the phone was the kindest and the most understanding person. I proceeded to tell her why I was calling and of the issues I was having and within just a couple minutes and just a couple more questions I had an Amazon gift card for the amount of the full purchase price, I received a full refund. And this was after two and a half years. The bottom line is you can not go wrong with the Asurion 3 year Protection Plan. A MUST HAVE!!!

Quick & Efficient
Asurion was great and was able to provide me with a refund quickly since my product was defective after just 1 year. I’d give it 5-star, but the website and the submission process is a bit clunky.
