# Podcast - Employee Engagement

*“The role of leaders and organizations is to create conditions so that the employees can really thrive and build on their initial level of engagement”. - Dasa Suissa*

*How can companies start to engage employees?*

*How do you treat your employees? Like an adult, a commodity or as human beings?*

She is also a Lecturer at the Charles university in Prague where she teaches several HR and adult development related subjects.
