Employee Engagement, Accountability, and Policing Action

Heady stuff

Holding others accountable. If we value employee engagement how do we respond when someone is not engaged? Do we hold others  accountable for their engagement and behavior?

Accountability: Check In or Checking Up. I believe powerful accountability is when we check in with people rather than check up on people. This means we level with them. We help them. We are there to protect their best interests. We are not there to punish them or to find them guilty

Do we stop someone who is disengaged and help them.

I love this video I first spotted on Alexander Kjerulf wonderful Chief Happiness Officer blog.

A new type of policing. I believe we need the spirit of this policing action in our organizations.
