Today's workforce is not only more informed, connected and demanding than at any other time in history, but also more critical than ever in sustaining competitive advantage in our service and knowledge-based world. Companies need to understand what employees look for across the employment lifecycle and what it takes to capture their full discretionary effort. Towers Perrin's Global Workforce Study the most comprehensive of its kind to date, involving 86,000 workers in 16 countries provides a rich vein of data and insight to draw in shaping an engaging work experience and investing in programs that will make a material difference to a company's strategic and financial results.
