Take Action Today
Employees want to maximize their contributions, but when they are in roles that don’t allow them to use their talents or strengths, outstanding performance can be challenging to achieve. Start having strengths-based conversations today.
1 - What do you really love about your work?
2 - What activities do you seem to pick up quickly?
3 - Of all the things you do well, which two or three do you do best?
A strengths-based approach to employee development is based on the idea that our greatest opportunities for success come from the productive application of individual talents — naturally recurring patterns of thought, feeling or behavior that can be productively applied. By refining our talents with skill, knowledge and training, we can develop them into strengths.
2, Engagement-Focused - People perform better when their needs are met and they feel supported.
Highly engaged teams realize a 17% increase in productivity.
- When we talk about engaged employees, we don't just mean they are happier. We mean they are better performers. - Our engagement-focused advice and best practices help managers address employees' basic workplace needs of belonging and having the right equipment to do their jobs. - Because when you take care of your employees, they can focus on doing great work.
3, Performance-Oriented - People achieve more when they're working toward a goal.
Employees who work for a manager who helps them set performance goals are 17 times more likely to be engaged than disengaged.
- HR initiatives and employee surveys fall flat because they miss one component: They don't tie to performance goals. - Employees want to achieve great things and do their jobs well. - Performance-oriented managers help their teams focus on their most important objectives and desired outcomes, showing employees how their work connects to the organization's overall success.
