In this episode:
People need to feel connected with others, that their work has meaning, and that they’re an important part of the company’s vision. It makes employees more productive, communicate and collaborate effectively, and fuels overall engagement. How can that be done?
People feel engaged when they find meaning and purpose in their work, making them want to release their potential. During the pandemic, people became isolated, so companies need to find ways for them to reconnect because collaboration is integral to effective teams. Involvement in the company vision, having processes in place, and receiving support help form employee connectivity and a sense of community. If they know they're part of the bigger picture, it drives their commitment to their jobs, and they feel involved in the meaning and purpose behind their work and the impact of their role in the company. Giving feedback, especially the positive kind, is also key, and companies can support their employees through a mentorship or coaching program to build engagement. Engagement creates a solid company culture, a sense of community and collaboration, and drives the company vision. What else can leaders do to motivate and engage their people?

They discuss how a sense of community helps fuel engagement, differentiate mentorship from coaching, the art of delegation, and share best practices for a constructive feedback system.
