We must make our moments count in employee engagement.

According to Jon Kabat-Zinn, mindfulness is

paying attention in a particular way: on purpose, in the present moment, and non-judgmentally. This kind of attention nurtures greater awareness, clarity, and acceptance of present-moment reality. It wakes us up to the fact that our lives unfold only in moments. If we are not fully present for many of those moments, we may not only miss what is most valuable in our lives but also fail to realize the richness and the depth of our possibilities for growth and transformation.

Mindfulness is to engage fully in life and is integral to fully engaging in our work.

    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.
