Point of View

People and business are inseparable. There are no bottom-line results without individual achievement.

Leadership

The individual and collective credibility, decisions, communications and behaviors of your leaders affect whether your employees give — and keep giving — "110 percent," whether risk-taking and innovation flourish and whether customers and other stakeholders put their faith in your organization.

Without strong leaders at all levels to translate your strategies, walk your organization's talk, create a climate that breeds high performance and inspire the long-term commitment of your workforce you might as well close your doors and turn off the lights.

The Meaning of Work

Your organization is not a mere mix of buildings, products, market strategies and org charts. There is no business without individuals. And it's about more than your bottom line. That’s where the meaning of work comes into play.

Without employees who connect emotionally and intellectually to what they do each day, you might as well abandon your measurement and rewards systems. They're not enough. You can't force, beg or buy the type of performance you need today. Individuals need to satisfy their own motivators and fulfill their own definitions of interesting, challenging and meaningful work.

Without employees who feel a part of something, you can forget about retention. Chances are your employees have already “checked out.”
