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.

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.

I am so pleased you joined. I believe artists have much to teach us about engagement. Here are two posts I wrote about this on my site:
(1) Aganetha Dyck who collaborates with bees.
(2) Elizabeth Perry
Of course, I also love the work of Benjamin Zander too.
I look forward to your involvement Mark.
