- The UNASKED questions every employee needs answered … things like:
- Does this job have meaning and what is it?
- How do we know we’re working on the right stuff?
- What’s your definition of success?
- The first thing a busy manager should do to turn their team from MEH to STAND-OUT … it’s about creating and sharing a meaning statement.
- How to connect with your team, outside of an annual performance review, in a clear, positive manner – where you constructively share with them what they can build upon, and where they can refocus.
- How creating a culture where your team asks for feedback from other teammates and their boss on a weekly basis makes them more receptive to it.
