How do we create an  environment that leads people to  flourish ?
Not with traditional  programs
What Do We Mean  by Carrots and Sticks? Using rewards and punishments to  motivate  behavior based on the principles of operant conditioning
 
 
Why Programs  Fail
Programs  fail… … because they are  programs
Goals can  limit  performance “ I never have a  goal  that involves number of  wins —never. It would just tend to  limit  our potential.” -- Mike Krzyzewski
Programs  narrow  scope of vision… … that can lead to  missed  opportunities
Programs  reduce … … creativity  and risk taking
Extrinsic  reinforcement… … reduces  intrinsic  motivation
Programs have no impact on  culture
Reward  programs … … reduce  overall motivation
How do most  top performers  get rewarded?
And…
sticks  don’t work
 
Forget  about motivation…
 
Engagement is a  psycho logical construct  which refers to an individual’s  commitment  to one’s organization, work, team, supervisor, and customers and which is demonstrated behaviorally through high levels of  discretionary effort
In other  words…
Fully in the Game
Robust Impact of  Engagement Productivity & Performance Profitability Turnover Absenteeism Employee Fraud Customer Satisfaction & Loyalty Quality Defects Safety Compliance Employee Satisfaction  Physical & Psychological Well-Being

What kind of  behaviors  do you see with an actively engaged staff member?
How do we  engage  staff?
Realizing  sustainable increases  in  engagement requires impacting the  culture  of your organization

R   ECOGNITION “ A  pat on the back  is only a few vertebrae removed from a kick in the pants, but is miles ahead in results.”     -- W. Wilcox Thank You
Turnkey Solutions & Best Practices  Recognition Send a handwritten “thank you” note home Spread the word; inform higher ups Create a wall of great ideas Hold work up as an example Increase decision making & autonomy Create more opportunities Document performance in personnel file
E MPOWERMENT “ The most vital task of the leader is to motivate, inspire,  empower  and encourage the team's primary resource -- the unlimited, creative human potential to find better ways.”   -- Dr. Lewis Losoncy  If he works for you, you work for him. - Japanese proverb
Turnkey Solutions & Best Practices  Empowerment Create powerful on-boarding and new hire training  programs; set staff up for success Ask staff how you can reduce barriers and help them  do their jobs better Increase flow of communication, e.g., hold monthly  lunches and invite a leader or team member from  another department to share updates Increase level of autonomy and decision making Create learning opportunities through delegation
S UPPORTIVE FEEDBACK “ No one enjoys addressing others' deficiencies but failure to do so  sends the message  that people are on track when they really aren't.  And that may be the  greatest disservice  a leader can do to someone else.”   -- Eric Harvey
Turnkey Solutions & Best Practices  Supportive Feedback Focus on behavior and impact of behavior not attitude Schedule time on the calendar for regular feedback Utilize “coaching moments” – quick feedback Add role-play to supplement verbal comments Keep feedback future focused Be selective and focused in your feedback; prioritize Serve as a role model and ask staff to provide  you with feedback
P ARTNERING “ In the past a leader was the boss. Today’s leaders must be  partners  with their people” -- Ken Blanchard
Turnkey Solutions & Best Practices  Partnering Conduct an internal service assessment Develop a mentoring program Create a staff council to provide feedback and  have input on organizational decisions – especially  those relevant to their jobs and benefits Increase communication through town hall meetings,  weekly newsletters, and a company blog Eliminate differences in benefits and perks, e.g.,  parking spaces, healthcare, and company cars
E XPECTATIONS “ Set your  expectations  high; find men and women whose integrity and values you  respect ; get their agreement on a course of action; and give them your ultimate  trust .” -- John Akers
Turnkey Solutions & Best Practices  Expectations Give job candidates the “real deal” Set clear expectations from beginning, e.g., volunteer  and staff partnership agreement  Keep focused on organizational mission “ What gets measured gets done”; track progress Put checkpoints in place; especially early Consequate behavior early; “Confused & “Concerned” Hold yourself and your people accountable!
C ONSIDERATION “ People do not care how much you know until they know how much you  care .” -- John Maxwell
Turnkey Solutions & Best Practices  Consideration Know your staff, e.g., hobbies, interest, family Be on time & follow-up promptly Celebrate accomplishments & special days Regularly ask staff members for their opinions & ideas Create flexibility in schedule Keep people in the information loop; ask if they would  like to be copied on emails or join meetings Give people your full attention during meetings
T RUST “ Leadership without  mutual trust  is a contradiction in terms.” -- Warren Bennis
Turnkey Solutions & Best Practices  Trust Avoid micro-managing Keep your promises Own up to mistakes Talk to people not about them Be honest and direct Give credit where credit is due Increase autonomy “ Walk the talk”; don’t say one thing and do another
None of this works without . . . communication
Communication is the  life   blood  of your organization
“ Communicate  everything to your associates.  The more they  know , the more they  care .  Once they care, there is  no stopping  them.” -- Sam Walton
