How to increase staff engagement and productivity

Due to COVID, we're experiencing a new way of working... And a whole new way of life.

It's likely that many of these changes to how we work and how we operate will remain long after restrictions are lifted.

So, as leaders, we need to get smarter with how we keep employees engaged, how we maintain high productivity and how we retain best talent.

And the best way of doing this is by investing in our people - not only in their personal development, but their health and wellbeing too.

Numerous studies have shown that enhancing wellbeing in the workforce, boosts employee engagement, reduces absenteeism, improves productivity and increases retention.

All of these benefits bring out the best talent potential within the workforce and lead to greater financial outcomes for the business overall.

It makes sense really - happier employees reach their potential faster and become more invested in the success of the company.

How to be an effective leader through a crisis

Don't let your negative emotions affect others.

I refer to great leaders as being ‘swan-like’ – they’re calm, collected and serene on the surface, all while putting in major unseen effort beneath the water.

When you remain calm, clear and consistent in your direction, you will emit a powerful calming effect, keeping your people level headed and focused on the end goal.

As a leader, this is so important in building what I call ‘follow-ability’.

Remember, leadership isn’t always about what you say.

It’s also about how you ACT.
