Treat people right and they will return the favor. That’s how you build lifelong friends and dedicated employees. It’s not hard to do - just think about what makes you want to be engaged. You want someone that’s open and honest – sharing their thoughts with you and interested in what you think. You want someone that puts you first – as an equal who values what you bring to the table and tells you so. They care about your needs and seek to satisfy them, from the right assignments to time off to a seat at the table. One who loves collaboration and sharing the credit and applause that comes from it; and covers you when it doesn’t work out as planned. Someone who always has your back, in good times and bad. That’s what I think supports your employees in meaningful ways that foster their active and enthusiastic engagement. Now add your own thoughts to this list about what it takes to foster engagement, what makes you engaged, and what you’ve seen that works with others. The list can be endless if it inspires people to want to get engaged. Now implement these ideas is sincere and meaningful ways that support your employees and inspire them to get engaged today.
