EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT LEVELS

(Work with passion and feel a profound connection to their company)

NOT ENGAGED = 50%

(Employees are “checked out, putting in time, no passion in their work)

ACTIVELY DISENGAGED = 20%

(Not just unhappy with work, but act out their unhappiness, bad apples)

ENGAGED VS. DISENGAGED

COOPERS FINDINGS:

IF MANAGER FOCUSES ON WEAKNESSES = 22% DISENGAGMENT

IF MANAGER FOCUES ON STRENGTHS = 1% DISENGAGEMENT

IF MANAGER IGNORES = 40% DISENGAGEMENT

THE FOUR DOMAINS OF LEADERSHIP STRENGTH

Executing: Those who will work tirelessly to get it done. They have the ability to “catch” an idea and make it

happen.

Influencing: Always selling the team’s

ideas inside and out. Those who take

charge, speak up, and make sure the group is heard. Ability to reach

a broader audience.

Relationship Building: The glue that holds a team together. They

have the unique ability to create groups and

organizations that are much greater than the

sum of their parts.

Strategic Thinking: They keep us focused on what “could” be. Constantly absorbing

and analyzing information and

helping the team make better decisions. They stretch our thinking for the future. “Out of the

Box Thinking”
