Engagement at Work: Good for Employees, Great for Business
The mission of The Pleasure of Your CompanyTM (TPOYC) is to offer a suite of products and services to improve human performance.  While training aims to improve the individual's knowledge and skills, The Pleasure of Your CompanyTM aims to improve individual and organizational performance in relation to the company's goals.
         -- Barbara Ashbaugh, CEO and CPLP
CEO-TPOYC Barbara Ashbaugh is President and CEO of The Pleasure of Your Company™ (TPOYC), a performance management consulting and training firm in Dallas, TX. Known for her practical and cost-effective approaches and solutions to business challenges, she has more than 22 years of experience conducting employee engagement, leadership development and talent management training. Clients include companies of all sizes, from Fortune 100 corporations to small privately held businesses. Barb established TPOYC to increase the awareness and application of sophisticated human capital management tools to improve the performance and engagement of employees. Services like selection testing and competency development, employee engagement surveys and 360 feedback -- in combination with Inscape's Everything DiSC® Profiles, Adventures in Attitudes®, Vital Learning Leadership Series, and Dr. Edward de Bono’s Six Thinking Hats -- all contribute to improving human performance and the currency of the company.

According to Now, Discover Your Strengths, Barbara’s approach to consulting is strategic. She can sort through the clutter and find the best route avoiding paths that lead straight to resistance. The strategic theme is not a skill that can be taught. It is a distinct way of thinking, a special perspective on the world at large. Her perspective allows her to see patterns where others simply see complexity. Mindful of these patterns, she will play out alternatives by asking questions and culling through information and making selections until she arrives at the chosen path. Her partnerships with clients and her strategic approach leads to success when identifying performance problems, finding the right business strategy, creating effective teams, involving people in decisions that affect them, coaching employees through change, dealing with management resistance, and stimulating creative thinking.

Engaging Employees -- Training from The Pleasure of Your Company™

Successful organizations understand the value of employee engagement. Workers who understand the business’ goals and operations -- and are involved in planning and decision-making -- increase productivity and morale. Corporations, government agencies and non-profits all benefit from engaged employees. Engagement at work is good for employees and great for business.

Employee Engagement Survey – TPOYC Consulting and Survey Development

One of the first steps in increasing employees’ engagement is surveying the staff, to establish a baseline and identify strengths and weaknesses. The Pleasure of Your Company™ has extensive experience in designing, conducting and analyzing engagement surveys, and can develop an employee survey project tailored to your organization’s needs.
