Meet the people behind Employee Engagement at SMU, who are striving to build the OneSMU community.
What makes employees engaged? Why do they feel more fulfilled at work and make more meaningful impact at SMU?
Work on five key Employee Engagement (EE) initiatives is taking place behind the scenes to help you feel more engaged at SMU.
Every employee at SMU has a unique story to tell and we share some of their journeys here.
