Actually, this person does tip...and calculates to the penny.
June 25
The shocking think about this story is not Luke's attitude, but the fact that it tends to be pretty widespread. I wonder whether he also refuse to pay tips? Because after all those people are simply doing their jobs too.

Profile Information

Who are you?
"Teaching Smart People Practical Ways To Become Extraordinary!"

That tag line was given to Steve by one of his corporate clients. During a meeting to assess how the engagement was going, the President told Steve, "Every time we finish a meeting together, I have at least 3 practical things to do that make my business better."

As a result, Steve's phone rings when it's time to figure out how to make the right things happen--and then make them happen.

Steve's first leadership assignment was as a Drill Instructor in the U.S. Army and later as a manager at Pfizer. He became fascinated with human development and learning, completing a graduate degree at Rowan University as well as ongoing studies at executive and human behavior institutes. 


He has designed and delivered leadership and communication programs for some of the world's largest organizations and has more than 30 years of contributing to speaking, professional development, and high-level executive coaching.



His Roesler Consulting Group has developed individual and team talent internationally for corporations such as Pfizer, Minerals Technologies, Johnson & Johnson, Votorantim--Brasil, AstraZeneca and Saudia. Steve is currently involved in the latest update of his Presenting With Impact and Presenting You programs, two presentation workshops that have been delivered on five continents to more than 1,000 participants representing nearly 60 nationalities.



Steve is an award-winning writer and speaker on leadership, management, and career management topics and can be followed online at the popular All Things Workplace website.


A member of the American Society for Training and Development and the International Association for Psychological Type, Steve is also an authority on, and certified in, Situational Leadership, Problem-Solving/Decision Making Methodologies, and advanced applications of Jungian psychology and the MBTI. Steve has, to date, worked cross-culturally with more than 3,000 executives and managers to integrate personal and regional styles into high performance in their global activities.
 Now located in the U.S., Steve has lived and worked in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and South America.



He holds undergraduate degrees in Business and Education, a graduate degree in Communications, and institute certifications in the Applied Behavioral Sciences. He has served as an adjunct faculty member in the Wharton Executive Program as well as the doctoral program at American University/NTL Institute.


His latest published works include a leap into social media as a co-author of The Age of Conversation I and II as well as an upcoming book with the Employee Engagement Network.

Steve and wife, Barbara, divide their time between New Jersey and Florida while daughter Christin works in the financial sector in New York City.

A Simple "Thank You" Is Darned Engaging

People at work appear invested in clarifying their own strengths and understanding the inherent talent in others. If that's so, I was wondering why there is so much angst about retention. It seems that people would be committed for the long term if their strengths and talents are being valued.

The Managerial Equivalent of "Your Lips Say 'Yes' But There's 'No-No' In Your Eyes"

There is at least one reason why some people--including managers-- are shopping their resumes, even in tough tim… Continue

Purposeful Passion and Managing Engagement

No one I've ever met is actually against the idea of being passionate about one's work. But how passion is related to results, how it is channeled, and what keeps it going can generate a lot of buzz.

A good, hard look at passion shows that it is generated in great part by one's view of the value of that work, and not a mindless onslaught of emotional overload. As a result, the responsibility for channeling passion in organizations is the purview of managers and leaders.… Continue

Six Things To Do To Help Maximize Engagement

Engagement is really about commitment.

So, think about your own experiences. What have you needed in order to commit to, and engage with, an organization, program, or idea? Think about it and see if the six steps below match pretty closely.

To maximize your chances of gaining commitment, be real and use engaging leadership. That means:

1. Tell people what you want to accomplish.

2. Tell them what led you to believe it's important to them and to you.

3. Tell them your own struggles along the… Continue

Leading In Crisis With an Engaging Voice

I'm not sure how to talk about leading without discussing engagement.

Warren Bennis recently reflected:

‘In discussing various approaches to leadership, I often note a distinction made between two nineteenth-century British prime ministers. It was observed that when you had dinner with William Gladstone, you left thinking, “That Gladstone is the wittiest, the most intelligent, the most charming person around.” But when you had dinner with Benjamin Disraeli, you left thinking, “I’m the wittiest… Continue

Thanks for the recognition of our tag line, not everyone gets it. Although we're from Ann Arbor, I'm a NYer so I don't have a dog in the Big10 fight, in fact, we don't have a dog in any fight!

Well, we'll have to let Phil know that the Jerzey Boyz are deciding his fate: will he now be known as "Eerie Phil" or "Synchronistic Phil"?

Eerie? I'd call it synchronicity.

Thanks, Tim

I'm going to ask for a brief pause on this one: am in the midst of revising materials for a leadership conference that I'm doing tomorrow and Saturday. So: I will come back to the URL's while having a post-conference cigar and see what we can get going here.

Glad to have you hear. I'll bet we could have lively conversations about engagement...from both ends (or all three, as I sometimes consider leadership separate from management).

Some (managers) arch their eyebrows when I make it clear that I view them as 'employees' as well...and while the point of view may be from a different angle, their engagement is just as (maybe more) critical.

Glad you've joined us.

David,

Well, so far the only force for change was my browser:-)

Let's see if we can up the ante as time goes on. You've got a terrific tool started here and I'm pleased to be able to be a part of it.

Steve,
It is wonderful to have someone who I perceive as a force of change here. I am so glad you "cracked the code" to get in.
