From individual contributor to leader.\n<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

In our experience, people rarely quit their jobs based on compensation; rather, they quit their manager. Or they quit the culture. So, it\u2019s imperative leaders consider the conditions they are creating for a compelling work environment. Do they make it easy, engaging, and actually enjoyable to get work done, or are there too many processes making it difficult and unrewarding?<\/p>\n

1-on-1 interactions are one of the best tools to build and reinforce the type of culture every team member deserves. Strategically planned and executed, 1-on-1s are arguably the best way to create the conditions for high engagement and ensure team members are connected to their leader.<\/p>\n

To be an effective leader, individuals must shift from thinking \u2018I hold 1-on-1s to monitor people\u2019s progress\u2019 to \u2018I hold regular 1-on-1s to help people get\u2014and stay\u2014engaged.\u2019<\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/span>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Levels of Engagement<\/h2>

How leaders interact with others significantly impacts engagement levels. Every interaction they have with team members affects how those members choose to volunteer their efforts and energies. Regular 1-on-1s, when done well, can help release the highest talents and contributions of each individual.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n

The conditions for engagement.\n<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

At FranklinCovey, we\u2019ve found that employees typically fall on a spectrum, with a distinct difference between the bottom and top three levels. Note the dotted line in the middle. Team members above the line are doing the job because they want to, while those below are doing the job because they have to. If people are indifferently compliant or lower, you will have to tell them over and over what to do, because they won\u2019t do it on their own.<\/p>\n

Leaders don\u2019t, in fact, create engagement. People choose their level of engagement. Leaders create the conditions for engagement\u2014for better or worse.<\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/span>\n<\/section>\n\n
