Brotherhood of the Rope Update

By David Zinger on Apr 30, 2007 in David Zinger

This blog’s theme for 2007 is the Brotherhood of the Rope. See the first post of the year.

The rope is made of many strands representing our various strengths. The rope makes it safer to summit and it also symbolizes the psychological connection between climbers.

Today two climbers, Vassily Pivtsov and Maxut Zhumayevk, summited Everest without oxygen.

To me the rope symbolizes both results and relationships. I hope many more climbers summit this year and that safety occurs for all.

Keep climbing connected.

EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT enriches everyone in the workplace. It is not sucking out more discretionary effort from employees.

Authentic employee engagement must function for the benefit of all: employees, leaders, organizations, and customers.

Employees have higher levels of satisfaction and contribution. Leaders are connected with employees and engaged themselves. The organization is functioning the way it should and customers are receiving the service they deserve.

Ultimately everyone is getting results that matter to them.

When this occurs, employee engagement transforms into a more powerful force --- workplace engagement.
