Support Research / Case Studies:Significant emerging research has revealed some critical discoveries. What has been learned from the experts and research is .. "what creates highly engaged, highly productive, highly effective, highly change adaptive and high performing workforces is emotional connections and feelings!" Brady Wilson, Juice "FIVE" Feelings Drivers of Employee Engagement:
Elements of Successful Organizations: How do you measure up? Jim Clemmer recently explained that there are three critical elements of successful companies. He described these elements as ..
Technology .. can involve things like core competencies, technical skills, products and services, expertise, value added features and services, etc. Management .. would typically involve processes, facts, intellectual aspects, control, problem solving, rules and policies, written communications, lighting a fire under people, etc. Leadership .. would be more about people, feelings, emotions, heart, possibility thinking, values, vision, stoke the fire within people, verbal communications, etc. Jim suggested that there should be a balance of all three elements to optimize performance. This is because people are all different and respond to different environments and stimuli. Interestingly, Jim advised us that in most of his research and interaction with clients and organizations he has consulted with he generally finds that leadership usually scores the lowest of the three when they are assessed and evaluated. In fact, when employees and managers are surveyed and asked to rate the three elements and identify which one should be focused on to improve performance almost always leadership is the element that is selected and identified as requiring improvement. Why? This likely has more to do with our different personalities, backgrounds, experiences and cultures. Not everyone is comfortable in the areas of soft people skills or understands the benefits of these skills. Some times there expertise is more suited to technical knowledge or equipment or financial data. Can recognition principles and guidelines help your staff and managers to improve their leadership qualities? Can it help you to encourage and reinforce the positive contributions that your employees make? Is a Paycheck really enough to encourage top performance? Are employees struggling to meet company goals and objectives? With layoffs, restructuring and frozen wages do employees still really care? Managers and supervisors unable to effectively communicate objectives or provide leadership? Are employees Happy? Satisfied? Motivated? |
