Leaders, Lead Well! Promoting poor leaders can devastate employee morale, trust, and productivity. Incompetent leadership breeds uncertainty, frustration, and disengagement, with employees doubting decisions, feeling unrecognized, and burning out under chaotic management. Research highlights the stark toll of ineffective leadership on satisfaction and stress, eroding trust and fostering toxic cultures where collaboration dies and top talent leaves. While inspiring leaders uphold morale even under pressure, poor leaders break the very spirit of their teams, threatening both the workforce and the organization's success. Rich and Maikel discuss the impact on employee morale in part 2 of The Consequences of Promoting Poor Leaders on this episode of Mainline Executive Coaching ACT.

You or someone near you suffers from one of these.....This week, Steve Shutts joined us to discuss energy-limiting conditions, which impact 15 million people in the UK or 1 in 5 in the workplace. These conditions are a silent challenge for many, often not talked about or understood, and consequently negatively impact many people's working lives.Steve shares the extent to which these conditions impact people, provides insights into how to make the workplace inclusive for people with ELCs, and discusses the benefits this can bring to individuals, teams, and organisations. We will all work with people with ELCs, and many of us suffer from an ELC ourselves, so take the time to educate yourself on this subject and the great work the charity ASTRIID does in this space. 

Today we're diving into the impact of employee morale on pet resorts and how creating a positive work environment can lead to a better company culture, higher retention rates, and an overall thriving business. Our special guest, Laurie Yost from Playful Pups Retreat, shares her personal journey to boosting team morale by adding simple but heartfelt touches of appreciation that transformed her staff's experience. Laurie's approach began with handwritten notes to her team, acknowledging their efforts and the unique strengths they bring to the table. What started as an experiment quickly turned into a core element of her management style, helping her build a workplace where employees feel valued and motivated to give their best.Laurie's success with these personal notes inspired her to create her own pet industry-specific cards, making the practice of showing appreciation a regular and meaningful part of her company's culture. Now, handwritten cards are a celebrated tradition at Playful Pups Retreat, where each card serves as a tangible reminder of gratitude and respect for each team member's hard work. This thoughtful approach has not only helped Laurie retain great staff but also attracted like-minded individuals who appreciate the supportive and uplifting environment she's fostered.

Navigating the balance of incentives in the contracting industry can be challenging. Understanding the difference between expected and unexpected rewards is crucial for fostering a productive work environment. Expected incentives, like commissions and bonuses, are clearly outlined in job descriptions, while unexpected ones—such as annual trips based on performance—can significantly enhance team morale.These long-term incentives require consistent reminders from leaders to keep them top of mind. By emphasizing both types of rewards, we can motivate teams effectively and ensure everyone understands their role in achieving collective goals.

Employee morale is a crucial factor in the success of any organization. High morale leads to increased productivity, better employee retention, and a positive work environment. In this article, we'll explore some effective ways to boost employee morale and provide examples of companies that have successfully implemented these strategies.1. Recognize and Appreciate Employees One of the most powerful ways to boost morale is by recognizing and appreciating employees for their hard work and contributions. This can be done through verbal praise, written notes, or even formal recognition programs. Example: Zappos, the online shoe retailer, has a unique way of recognizing employees. They have a "Hero Award" program where employees can nominate their colleagues for going above and beyond. Winners receive a cape, a medal, and a cash bonus.2. Provide Opportunities for Growth and Development Employees are more likely to be engaged and motivated when they feel like they have opportunities to learn and grow within the company. Offer training programs, mentorship opportunities, and clear paths for career advancement. Example: Google is known for its commitment to employee development. They offer a wide range of training programs, including leadership development, technical skills, and personal growth workshops. Google also encourages employees to pursue their passions through "20% time," where employees can spend 20% of their work time on projects they're passionate about.3. Foster a Positive Work Environment A positive work environment is essential for employee morale. Encourage open communication, promote work-life balance, and create a culture of inclusivity and respect. Example: Patagonia, the outdoor clothing company, has a strong culture of work-life balance. They offer flexible schedules, on-site childcare, and encourage employees to take time off to enjoy the outdoors. This has resulted in high employee satisfaction and low turnover rates.4. Encourage Teamwork and Collaboration Employees who feel like they're part of a team are more likely to be engaged and motivated. Encourage collaboration, promote cross-functional projects, and create opportunities for employees to bond and build relationships. Example: Pixar, the animation studio, is known for its collaborative culture. They have an open office layout that encourages interaction and collaboration. They also have regular "Pixar University" sessions where employees can learn from each other and share their expertise.5. Provide Meaningful Benefits and Perks In addition to traditional benefits like health insurance and retirement plans, consider offering unique perks that show you care about your employees' well-being and happiness. Example: Airbnb, the vacation rental platform, offers employees a $2,000 annual travel credit to use on Airbnb rentals. This not only encourages employees to travel and experience new cultures but also helps them better understand the company's product and mission.6. Lead by Example As a leader, your behavior and attitude set the tone for the entire organization. Make sure you're modeling the behavior you want to see in your employees, and create a culture of transparency, trust, and respect. Example: Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is known for his leadership style that emphasizes empathy, inclusivity, and growth mindset. He regularly communicates with employees, listens to their feedback, and encourages them to take risks and learn from failures.Boosting employee morale takes a combination of strategies and a commitment to creating a positive work environment. By recognizing and appreciating employees, providing opportunities for growth and development, fostering a positive work environment, encouraging teamwork and collaboration, providing meaningful benefits and perks, and leading by example, you can create a culture where employees are engaged, motivated, and proud to be a part of your organization.

Greg DeVore discussed the need for a fundamental shift in the approach to training and knowledge transfer, moving away from a one-size-fits-all solution towards a more tailored and efficient approach that aligns with the way people work. He introduced the "Find and Follow Framework", which empowers employees to work independently and handle various situations effectively. Greg also highlighted the Framework's applicability to different businesses, emphasizing its potential to address inconsistencies in customer service and operational procedures.Greg DeVore is the co-founder and CEO of ScreenSteps, a company dedicated to helping organizations transfer knowledge to their employees more efficiently. His career in training began 20 years ago in the film scoring industry, where he taught composers to utilize Apple's Logic platform. This experience paved the way for opportunities to design e-learning solutions for medical devices for prominent companies such as GE, Siemens, and Philips. As the CEO of ScreenSteps, Greg collaborates with organizations of various sizes to replace ineffective training programs with efficient knowledge transfer strategies, enabling them to onboard employees at least 50% faster. Greg holds a degree in Composition and Film Scoring from the Berklee College of Music. He resides in McLean, Virginia, with his wife and four boys, which explains the abundance of broken items in their home.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!

The calendar says that 2023 is coming to a close. This is true, every year. And, every year, so many of us behave as though December, end of year, Q4, however you describe it, is a surprise. Behavior looks like panicking to get things done that have been on the to-do list for the last 6 months, forgetting that the last 4 weeks of the year is closer to 2 and a half to 3 weeks, and just having not much left in the tank. As long as you're in a position in an organization of any kind, the holiday season will have an impact. This is known and can be addressed WAY in advance. One way is to try to front-load the work so December is less like spinning plates on flaming sticks and much more enjoyable. When the close to the calendar year is less panic-inducing, there are some great things that can be done with your team:

Key Drivers Of Business Value Part 4 of 10 | Human ResourcesWhen we talk about Human Resources (HR) SOPs in the context of a business's exit plan, they hold significant value. Here's why:1. **Smooth Transition**: An exit plan is often about transition. Whether the business is being sold, merged, or passed on to heirs, clearly defined HR SOPs ensure that personnel changes, responsibilities, and shifts are carried out with minimal disruptions. 2. **Protecting Employee Rights**: HR SOPs provide clear guidelines on handling resignations, terminations, retirements, or even massive layoffs. Ensuring that these procedures are carried out legally and ethically protects the company from potential lawsuits or public relations disasters.3. **Valuation and Sale**: When selling a business, potential buyers are interested in all operational aspects of the business. Clear HR SOPs signal to potential buyers that the business is well-organized, reducing perceived risk and potentially increasing the valuation of the business.4. **Knowledge Transfer**: SOPs help ensure that the knowledge is not just in the heads of a few key employees. They provide a blueprint for new leadership or owners on how various HR tasks are carried out, preserving organizational memory.5. **Consistency**: Whether during regular operations or a company's exit, consistency in processes ensures predictability. This helps both employees and leadership know what to expect, making changes less jarring and maintaining company culture.6. **Legal Compliance**: HR operations often intersect with local labor laws and regulations. Well-defined SOPs ensure that the business is always in compliance, particularly during sensitive periods like business exits when scrutiny may be higher.7. **Efficiency**: As businesses prepare for an exit, they often look for ways to streamline operations and reduce costs. SOPs can point out redundancies or inefficiencies in HR processes, paving the way for smoother operations.8. **Employee Morale and Retention**: During times of transition, employees often feel insecure about their roles and futures. Clear HR SOPs related to communication, severance, or potential re-hiring can alleviate some of these concerns, leading to better morale and reduced turnover.9. **Stakeholder Communication**: Stakeholders, including investors, partners, and even customers, often have an interest in a business's exit strategy. Clear HR procedures can help guide communication strategies and stakeholder management.10. **Flexibility**: As contradictory as it might sound, having clear SOPs can provide a business with the flexibility to adapt. By having a clear structure, businesses can identify what's essential and what can be changed or adjusted during the transition.In essence, HR SOPs offer a roadmap that can be invaluable during the potentially turbulent times of a business exit. They provide clarity, protection, and structure, ensuring that the human side of the business – its employees – are managed with care and foresight.Chapters:00:00 Key Drivers Of Business Value Part 4 of 10 | Human Resources01:28 Leadership Development Program05:26 SOPs for Training and Onboarding08:40 SOPs for Human Resources Administrative Functions11:00 ComplianceAbout Inside BS Show with The Godfather and Nicki GThe Inside BS Show with the Godfather and Nicki G provides business leaders with inside business secrets to help them make a great living and live a great life.Since its inception in 2020, the show has been a valuable resource for CEOs and business leaders seeking the personal and professional knowledge they need to take their businesses to the next level while making the journey more rewarding. Dave Lorenzo and Nicola Gelormino have the unique ability to get their guests to share the insider secrets that have helped them dominate their industries. A new episode is released at 8 AM each business day.

Meta. Netflix. Amazon. Spotify. Google. We've been watching as some of the biggest names in tech have implemented mass layoffs for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic began.

Especially when everyone's now working in a distributed environment?   In this episode of Inclusion in Progress, we'll be discussing what workplace survival syndrome is, how it affects employee morale post-layoffs, and what you and your company can do to support remaining team members after they watch their colleagues leave.   Here's what we will explore: What is workplace survivor syndrome?

Mark and Jesse ponder the question: what makes (and keeps) employees happy? While Jesse doesn't like the term "happy," there are definitely some strategies to keeping employee morale high and making jobs more fulfilling. Jesse references Dan Pink's book "Drive" and his concept of AMP -- autonomy, mastery, and purpose. If a job can offer these things to an employee, chances are they are going to find fulfillment and satisfaction in their work.   Mark Butler, Virtual CFO https://markbutler.com https://letsdothebooks.com   YNAB https://www.youneedabudget.com

How Happy Employees Translate Into Happier Customers Shep Hyken interviews Temy Mancusi-Ungaro, Chief Executive Officer of Reachdesk, a global data-driven gifting platform that helps teams send gifts at a large scale and measure their impact. He shares how companies can use gifts to create morale, nurture team connections, and ensure employee retention.   Top Takeaways:   ·      From an employee's onboarding to celebrating work anniversaries, birthdays, and promotions, a meaningful gift is a great way to create morale.   ·      Now that the workplace has undergone a migration where employees have gone partially or fully remote, it has become harder to forge relationships. Personalized and timely gifts are an excellent way for employers to show they care for their employees as humans and that they want to invest in their work experience.   ·      If you are dealing with a hybrid or fully remote workforce, people become disconnected from your company. However, just because they aren't there doesn't mean they want to be disconnected. Something as simple as an inexpensive gift and some company swag can make them feel excited and connected to something bigger.   ·      Personalize gifts… When you receive gifts, the ones you will keep are those that resonate with you. It is all about the meaning behind it that creates a personal connection.   ·      Employees need to feel connected and supported. Gifting is a great way to deliver moments that matter, build a connection, and support your employees.   ·      Plus, Shep shares some of the best corporate gifts that he has received. Tune in! Quote:  "In the same way that we use gifts to build relationships for sales, you can use gifts to build relationships within your employees."   About:    Temy Mancusi-Ungaro is the Chief Executive Officer of Reachdesk, the leading global data-driven gifting platform. He has over 20 years of experience scaling SaaS companies and leading customer and employee success.   Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.
