Last week in my Unleashing Your Remarkable Potential newsletter I wrote about four ways to engage your team (reading the article now would be a very good idea).

Today I am co-facilitating a workshop for new supervisors called Bud to Boss and we are talking about, you guessed it, engaging team members.

It is a topic all leaders should be thinking about it, because the more we can engage our employees, the more successful the organization will be, the more successful you will be, and the more successful your team members will be.

Creating greater engagement is truly a “everyone wins” situation.

You may be hearing this word from a corporate leadership perspective, with people talking about it as a strategic leadership initiative.  Whether you have or haven’t doesn’t really matter.  Because if you want to make a difference in engaging others it is part of your team leadership role.  It doesn’t come from corporate.  It doesn’t emanate from a memo, it comes from you connecting and engaging with others.

I encourage you to make engaging others your focused leadership activity for the rest of the week, and if possible, influence others to have this topic and the related skills included in future leadership development training in your organization.
