    transcript

    FTE #1: You need to take this whole engagement thing more seriously. Most successful companies are built on the increased productivity of highly engaged staff.

    FTE #2: Have you considered that maybe their staff are highly engaged simply because they know they're productively contributing to their company's success?

    FTE #1: You're not going to fund a team lunch, are you?

    FTE #2: For the third time this month? Unlikely.

    Caption: Engagement is just a non-spreadsheet version of what productivity looks like.
