What to expect

A strategic roadmap that will transform your company into an employee-first powerhouse, unlocking a competitive edge for enduring success.
 
In an ever-shifting work landscape, leaders can no longer ignore their most overlooked stakeholders—their employees.
 
In The Employee Advantage, behavioral economist Stephan Meier explains why organizations must value their employees as much as—if not more than—their customers: those that pivot toward an employee-centric model will be more profitable, innovative, and appealing to top talent.
 
The good news? You don’t need to start from scratch. The customer-centric tools that give you a competitive advantage can be repurposed to focus on employees.
 
Through case studies of Fortune 500 companies like Costco, DHL, and Best Buy as well as smaller organizations, you will learn:
 
  • Why employees care about more than just money when it comes to their jobs—the same way customers care about more than just price
  • What two mindset shifts are essential to becoming an employee-centric workplace
  • How improving your employee experience will benefit your business and your bottom line
 
The future of work is human-centric. The companies that win in the marketplace will be those with the best employees. To get and stay ahead, businesses must embrace the employee advantage.

 

Critics Review

  • “Meier is one of the world’s greatest applied behavioral economists. No one is better positioned to share insights about how we can better design organizations that put employees first. A tremendous thinker and excellent communicator, Meier is sure to write a book that we’ll all benefit from reading.”
     —Dr. Katy Milkman, James G. Dinan Professor at The Wharton School and bestselling author of How to Change
  • "“There has not been a new perspective on business strategy since Michael Porter’s work. Meier brings his background in behavioral economics to add a unique perspective to corporate strategy because he considers the value of the employee as critical to corporate success.”—Sheena S. Iyengar, S. T. Lee Professor of Business at Columbia Business School and bestselling author of The Art of Choosing
  • "Meier is one of the most talented researchers studying the role of behavioral economics in motivation. He possesses a keen sense of observation and understanding of how this field informs business strategy and the future of work. His work has a real impact on how businesses operate and a book written by him, sharing this knowledge, will be an invaluable resource.”—Dan Ariely, James B. Duke Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Economics at Duke University and bestselling author of Predictably Irrational
