The incredible thing I’ve found in working with companies and leaders over the last 25+ years is that even with all these challenges, managers like you are still on a mission: to serve and support your teams and to become great human leaders.
All sessions run from 12:00 PM – 1:15 PM Eastern
Have you heard that 70% of team engagement is determined solely by the managers? This session will share why it’s so important to get this right. A great human leader is, more than anything else, intentional. In the following ways:
When people feel a sense of purpose on the job, the bottom line improves. Period. In fact, Harvard Business School found that companies where employees feel a sense of purpose at work outperform the stock market by 6.9%. This session will show you how to increase performance by making it easy to connect people to the big picture.
The absence of intentionality leads to resentment. Which is why great human leaders curate connection and don’t leave it to chance. 55% of employees say feeling connected to their work increases their desire to go above and beyond. In this session you’ll see why it’s so important to build connections at work and how to do it through purpose, protocols, and presence.
People want to grow on the job, up, down, and sideways – especially Gen Z who list professional development as a top motivating force. In a LinkedIn Global Talent Trends survey, 59% of respondents cited professional development opportunities as a top area to invest in. In this session you’ll learn how to show up for your people in a way that makes them want to show up for you.
Rituals are a tool of the human workplace because they ground our teams and organizations in our shared humanity. What’s a ritual? Something we do with a regular cadence that goes beyond any practical purpose and that people would miss if it went away. Great human leaders leverage rituals to give their people the Three P’s: A connection to Purpose, a sense of Psychological Safety, and a boost in Performance.
Only 61% of employees feel appreciated at work. Don’t leave all that goodwill on the table! In this session, you’ll see why recognizing your people, in the ways they want to be recognized, can go a long way to making your organization a great place for humans.
