change their own lives, and start doing things and
think differently.

3. If you’re a leader, manager or
director that tends to encourage
innovation and high performance
in your team or that aspires to
have an innovative high
performing team that can put you
at the forefront of your industry
with disruptive innovations or it is
your intent to maintain relevance
in this disruption prone market
and constantly changing world –
then you need to start thinking
about employee engagement and
caring a little more about it. This
is because at the end of the day,
everything rests on how
‘interested’ your team is. Are they
in the mood to give that
discretionary effort? Are they
invested in your mission? Do they
go an extra mile in achieving
goals?
The good thing is that you hold
the power required to build an
engaged team! The key to unlock
employee engagement is you, and
only you. This is because
engagement and lack thereof, is
driven by the choices you make
everyday as a leader – it is in the
leadership and culture practices
you action out everyday.
