The Employee Engagement Six Pack
By David Zinger on Aug 30, 2007 in Employee Engagement
Are you flying with a six pack of employee engagement?
In this case, I don’t mean half a dozen beers.
The six essential instruments in a light aircraft are often referred to as the six pack:
- airspeed indicator
- attitude indicator
- altimeter
- turn coordinator
- heading indicator
- vertical speed indicator
Do you monitor 6 strong “indications” of your employee engagement to get you successfully to your destination?
- Airspeed indicator - how fast can you move towards your goal?
- Attitude indicator - is everyone maintaining a strong and positive attitude and avoiding too much wobble?
- Altimeter - how high can you climb with fully engaged employees?
- Turn coordinator - are you responsive to change to turn back to employee engagement if you begin to drift off course? Can you feel exhilarated while making a steep turn?
- Heading indicator - do you stay vigilant about where you are headed?
- Vertical speed indicator - how quickly can you climb to new levels of employee engagement?
Grab a coffee, jump into the workplace cockpit, and prepare to take off with these indicators of employee engagement.
Of course, you could also grab a six pack of beer or root beer and have a down-to-earth discussion about employee engagement with the team of people you work with.
