Having the right people not only impacts the performance of your organization, but your own happiness. If you don't enjoy coming to work, how do you think your employees feel?
"Performance Breakthrough" by Mike Goldman provides a framework to drive enthusiasm and engagement throughout your organization. Here are the four secrets that fuel positive engagement:
Secret One: Acceptance
Accept that we're all different. Treat others the way they want to be treated, not the way you want to be treated.
Secret Two: Leverage
Stop beating yourself and others up for weaknesses. Discover and leverage passions and strengths instead.
Secret Three: Impact
Give people the freedom to get the job done. Allow them to take ownership and feel like they have a true impact on your organization's bottom line.
Secret Four: Celebration
Keep a constant flow of positive energy throughout the organization. Celebrate your team's accomplishments, big or small.
Taken separately, these four secrets are powerful, but put them together, and your organization will be unstoppable. It will also become a magnet for tremendous talent.
