Ensure Engaged, Empowered Employees by Laura Stack

Published: Thu, 01/16/14

"Employees who believe that management is concerned about them as a whole person---not just an employee---are more productive, more satisfied, more fulfilled. Satisfied employees mean satisfied customers, which leads to profitability." -- Anne M. Mulcahy, former chairperson and CEO of Xerox Corporation.

Ensure Engaged, Empowered Employees

When you have a lot at stake or a very high interest in an outcome, you're more likely to do a better job (or at least try to). Your team members feel the same way. If they don't enjoy their work, they won't be motivated to spend discretionary effort on the strategic goals you set for them. Wouldn't you rather be surrounded by people in whom you have full trust and confidence they will get things done?

 
1. Increase your ratio of engaged to disengaged employese. This requires not only personal strength but flexibility and empathy as well. If you end up with competent employees who make you and your organization shine, it's worth every bit of effort.
