In this edition of Global Leader Radio!™, we discuss the facts and fantasies associated with organizational engagement. Whether at the micro or macro level, engagement continues to be a differentiator for top-performing organizations. Sean Hart, Gary Jones and Chad Wright joined as our in-studio guests to discuss this relevant topic moderated by Alvin C. Miles.

Here are seven takeaways from our discussion:

  1. … recognize opportunities and go for it!

  2. Maximize engagement to increase output & gain more benefit.

  3. You learn a lot about someone’s character by noticing how they treat wait staff!

  4. Assign meaning to the seemingly simple tasks you do every day.

  5. Always remember – you’re working for the reference!

  6. Invest in your team’s development; act as player or coach versus a boss or owner.
  7. Leadership is about creating better outcomes for the people involved.

Listen in as Sean, Gary & Chad discuss how your firm can benefit from increasing engagement professionally, and how you can benefit personally. Add their insights, tips and resources to your leadership toolkit. Leadership IS a conversation!
