In today's competitive landscape, attracting and retaining top talent is more crucial than ever, especially post-Covid. It requires a deep connection with potential hires to ensure they are the right fit and genuinely engaged. One effective approach is the "passion model" of interviewing, which aligns candidates' personal passions with organizational goals, fostering a committed workforce. Understanding what drives employees enhances their dedication and enthusiasm. A well-structured onboarding process, ideally lasting two years, with regular feedback and achievable goals, is also vital. This helps new employees feel valued and integrated from the start, boosting their long-term engagement and productivity. Creating a supportive work environment that recognizes the contributions of quiet, hardworking employees can further enhance organizational culture.

In today's episode, I discuss the importance of encouragement and how it differs from praise when it comes to parenting. Encouragement is all about focusing on your child's efforts and contributions, rather than giving value-laden words that have opposites, like "good" or "awesome." When you encourage your child by starting with "you" and acknowledging their perseverance, problem-solving skills, or willingness to take on challenges, you help them develop a healthy self-concept and sense of identity. This empowers them and reduces power struggles, as they feel a measure of control over their circumstances. I encourage you to challenge yourself this week to use encouragement every time your child does something, as they will provide you with plenty of opportunities to do so throughout the day.
