Hi David,
Hope you had a good trip back to Winnipeg and thank you for sponsoring the Barcelona conference.
The conference was a great way to get a wider perspective on the challenges, but also the opportunities around the engagement topic. Most of all, it was inspiring to meet colleagues who dedicate as much time on the engagement topic as I try to do (a community, as you call it).
I am really keen on finding new ways to understanding engagement, in innovative ways (heat maps, segmentation analysis, links to other HC data) and promise to keep you in the loop as we experiment with different approaches here at Credit Suisse. Happy to liaise with anyone else who is interested.
Best Regards,
-Peder Anderlind

- I am glad to see you here Kate and Peder. I am writing a blog post about the conference and Barcelona for tomorrow. I was inspired by both your approaches at the conference.

Thanks! It took me a while before I got to that name for the network.
True and good point. Participation is key for the network to be useful.

Engagement is about capturing the hearts and minds of your team, open your heart and show you believe in them and truly care about them as people and they will move mountains.
Set performance goals collaboratively with employee and then hold yourself and employee accountable for achieving those goals.
It is very easy to forget your own journey,share your failings as you grew,treat your team member as a mate inspire him.
Hi Ravi
I like the name 'Stomping Ground'
Good that your presentation went well, and thanks for sharing your slides.
The assertions you've made in your PPT slides are not wrong but the issue is that achieving all of those things depends on parti...
Think: if your boss approached you the way you're about to approach your employee, what would your interior
response be?
The presentation went off really well. The demonstration of the network went really well too. So far 25% of the staff have signed up. Regrettably, there is virtually no activity on the network yet. I feel that there is a lot of hesitation in start...
Understand every member of your teams motivation, align their aspirations to a clearly communicated business direction, give them all the tools to do the job and then empower them to deliver.
Care for people around you and get to know who they are, what strengths they bring and what's important to them.
Every day do a quick maintenance check. Do people know Why?, How?, When? and What? they are doing and are they free to ask these questions of you?.
Check your own engagement regularly. You need support, recognition and inspiration as much as your employees, in order provide an environment that will engage your people fully.
Engagement is a relationship that requires regular maintenance.
Start from where they are at.
Reach out to their hearts and values. Look beyond the Employee ID number and make a genuine effort to see and hear the person.
