Discovering the Power of The Emotional Engagement economy


 

 

Staff Challenges - Your Engagement may be shorter than expected

One of the most important trends emerging as areas of concern for companies is talent retention. Recent research conducted on South Africa reveals that Talent Retention is the no 1 issue for HR professionals and leaders.

I'm just amazed at how the leaders and managers continue to behave, with old world attitudes, behaviors and beliefs, without understanding the impact of their actions on Employee Engagement.  Leadership was 3rd most important in the research with Stress management right next to leadership development.

It seems clear to me that the stress issues and staff enagement levels are closely related to leadership issues.  The workplace somehow seems to have become  more stressful, more pressurized, less satisfying and less supportive.

There is a big disconnect between the head and the heart.  The driving factor seems to be MONEY, MONEY, MONEY, almost at any cost.

It's no wonder that Gallup's research in the area of Staff Engagement revels such shockingly low numbers. And I believe it's the leaders fault! NO one else is to blame but the leader.

The role of leader has shifted over the last decade, from know, and do, it all to visualise, energise, mobilise and synthesise.

I want my leader to inspire me and make sure we are on the right "path", in the right "forest". Today staff know far more than many of their leaders will ever know about the details and day to day stuff.  Staff are the ones who solve the frontline problems, and carry the company flag into the future.

With global competition spreading like a turbo-charged virus, leaders can no longer afford to utilise old leadership paradigms and beliefs.  They need to behave and act in new ways. The need to become a different kind of leader. They need new skills and understandings.

A New Economy Leader leads from their center core - Soul - with passion, authenticity, integrity and care.  A new economy leader has an executive coach, who provides honest feedback, insights, ask difficult questions, and hold the leader accountable to hi/her word.

When today's staff, who are a whole lot more savvy than 20 years ago, see the indiscretions of their leaders it begins to destroy the fabric of trust, truth and engagement in the organisation.

I'll bet you anything that any leaders indiscretion is well known throughout the organisation.
