Job-hunting? Don’t apply and fill, create and pitch
Today I am reprinting Sunday’s Say “Alaka‘i” blog post in total on my Talking Story blog, for some variation of this conversation is coming up quite a bit currently, and I thought some of you may be interested in it as well: I know we have many workplace coaches here, who do good, similar work to mine, and I find that this is now the single best piece of advice I am giving people right now.

Moving this over from the Forum: A Shout-out for your EE-connected Book Reviews
Aloha everyone,
Have you read a good book that truly resonated with you for the message it gave on our interests with employee engagement? Please consider doing a book review about it, and participating as a guest reviewer on Joyful Jubilant Learning throughout the month of March.
On behalf of the hui (group) of regularly contributing authors there, it would be an honor to welcome you to the site. If you publish a website of your own, it is also a great way to get more in-bound traffic from ano… Continue

I think we all generally agree that engaged employees are a powerful force for delivering company success. I think we all also agree that you cannot force employees to engage. You can, however, create work environments and cultures in which employ...
Treat people the way they want to be treated, not the way you want to be treated.

Great word ownership, Kurt.
Without a strong sense of ownership by the employee we don't get their full engagement, their complete commitment to the work.
The formula for employee ownership for any boss is to listen to the employee and that give...
Remember, recognition is free. It's not material. It's a communication tool. I agree with Ben that employees need a voice and a safe place to use it. They also want some ownership in the processes and acknowledgment that the tasks they perform mea...
Recognition is important, but possibly not in the way you think. Rewards have negative effects down the road no matter how good they look. On this subject, read Alfie Kohn's "Punished by Rewards".
I managed people for over 30 years. In order to s...
I think recognising your staff becomes all the more important in today's climate of budget cuts, pressures and downsizing. We all want to feel valued, both as employees and human beings, and to have someone else say 'thank you, your continued supp...

Teach your employees how to Manage Up: Some people think this is brown nosing, but it's really about helping your boss understand who you are.
Angela,
I think recognition is always essential but we have to look at the deeper reason why. Reward and recognition confirms value. Every human being wants to know, "Does my life matter?" This is the questions we help answer when we reward and re...
Be real, don't use jargon, and be honest. If something is going to hurt people would rather be prepared!

The D5M does make a big difference for managers so quickly, and I do love to spread the word - and the aloha :)
Terrence Seamon from the American Management Association started a group on Manager Tools for Employee Engagement. I mentioned the possible application of the daily 5 minutes exercise focused on employee engagement.
I encourage you if you are interested to join the group and share a point or two about the D5M and some links to places where you outline how to do it.
I think it is such a powerful and structured way to ensure connection and engagement.

I had just clicked in before to pick up the url for an announcement I put on Talking Story for you this morning: You can read it here
http://www.sayleadershipcoaching.com/talkingstory/2008/02/february-conver.html
I will be looking forward to our talk story too!
I noticed you were online. I look forward to talking with you next week. This site has far exceeded my initial expectations and hopes and I look forward to making this work with strong relationships, good content, and help for all with engagement.

I am positive that you will soon experience what I have at JJL - everyone there teaches me! I learn way more than I teach and coach as mea ho'okipa (hostess) there, and I love that I do.
You must know as the network host that you have given me such a very fine model as you host the JJL group. I have already thought 3 times - what would Rosa do. Thank you for your indirect teaching.
David
