Employee Engagement: Engage Right Up to the End

by Leave a Comment

I was inspired by the sunflower growing outside of my office window. It is October in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada yet this sunflower bloom is so alive.

Some of us as we get close to the end of something begin to coast but let this sunflower inspire you to stay engaged until the end. Engage near the end of the day, near the end of a project, near the end of a meeting, near the end of the year, near the end of your career.

Don’t let the autumn of your career mentally prevent you from being fully engaged.

You still have much to experience and contribute.

Question: Why Be A People Artist?

by Leave a Comment

Why should you be a people artist at work?

People artistry is a form of powerful recognition that recognizes others while enhancing their engagement. It can foster both retention and loyalty. It may increase productivity and profits. But these are instrumental reasons. They are not bad. They are not wrong. They may even be necessary but they are not sufficient.

Why be a people artists at work? Because people matter. We are in debt to the people who brought out the best in us. We need to be people artists because it is the right thing to do. It is right for others, it is right for ourselves, it is right for our organizations. Like sunflowers following the sun we need to follow the right way to work. Do the right thing…be a people artist.
