Commitment is of course important for you who manage employees. But what should you focus on to engage employees?
Here's a quick rule to remember DecisionWise: MAGIC
When you feel your work has a greater purpose than the job itself.
Although not everyone saves lives or fights poverty, it is possible to find meaning in our work. Those who do are more engaged at work.
When we understand the "why", we become more effective at the "what".
The ability to shape your work and your surroundings so that you perform at your best.
Employees who have the opportunity to shape their tasks and environment are more creative, innovative, passionate and efficient.
Being challenged so you reach personal and professional goals.
Being challenged isn't just about promotions, it's just as much about learning new things and taking on tasks that are challenging enough to make you feel like you're developing. It's about finding the perfect balance between boredom and burnout.
That your work produces positive and significant results.
The feeling of achieving results is one of the most motivating things for many of your employees. Therefore, it is important that managers define goals and have clear expectations, as well as measure and recognize progress. At the same time, it is the manager's job to help see that their work contributes to creating results.
The feeling of being part of something bigger than yourself.
Our work is part of who we are. Therefore, the job becomes more than just the tasks we perform. When employees feel "connection", teamwork, idea generation and problem solving thrive. Managers know that employees are not just labor. They are part of the company's brand.
