How does engagement play out with you?
Here is are two short 3 act engagement plays I wrote on Twitter. Each act was limited to less than 140 characters.
Employee Disengagement – Tragedy
Act 1: Alarm goes…keep hitting snooze button…hope day ends.
Act 2: Get to work late…who cares…go for coffee…wonder if paper cut is big enough for long term disability.
Act 3: Avoid coworkers and bosses…avoid work…just plain avoid until 5:00. Go home, repeat tomorrow.
Employee Engagement – Adventure
Act 1: Wake up…really wake up. Have coffee. Think about day. Head to work with anticipation and box of donuts.
Act 2. Connect with peers, leaders, work, organization. Make a contribution that benefits both myself and organization.
Act 3. Go home and engage fully with family and community. Sleep well and dream about an engaged tomorrow.

I like the side by side “choose your adventure” approach.
You really punctuated the power of engagement and connection.

Based on your comments and style of writing I think we need to look at a joint venture on leadership/engagement/etc.
