Employee Engagement: Don’t Just Idle, Do Something

January 9, 2009 by David Zinger 2 Comments

Edmonton Alberta has proposed a bylaw that will fine drivers $250 if they “let their engines run more than three minutes when they aren’t moving.”

In engagement we don’t need engines running that are not moving.

I trust your employee engagement work is not idling with more talk than action.

I appreciated Johnnie Moore’s post: There is never nothing happnening. He included the following 1:46 second Python video from the Life of Brian. Enjoy it and ensure your employee engagement is not just idle discussion around the table.

    You’re exactly right. And, I like your analogy with idling engines. The point is very clear.

    Thanks for the comment. Prime leadership can prime the engine to get things in gear.
