Keep Employees Engaged Dale Carnegie Training ® The Coach's Corner Quick Success Tips from the Carnegie Coach There are numerous things that you can do as a manager to keep your employees engaged and motivated. 1. Walk the talk. Be enthusiastic and fully engaged with your job and your employees. Learn what motivates them, what they want to achieve and why this is important to them. 2. Earn trust, respect and credibility. Fulfill promises, keep confidences and commitments, and act consistently, fairly and rationally. Be authentic and approachable. 3. Play to strengths. Match the right person to the right job. By learning your employees' strengths and work styles, you can make the best use of their individual and unique talents and skills. 4. Instill a purpose. Instill sense of purpose in your employees. Involve them in projects as fully as possible by communicating the big picture goal. Everyone needs to know that his or her efforts make a difference. 5. Be clear. Set clear and realistic expectations and define expected outcomes. Maintain open lines of communication and "check in" with employees on a regular basis. 6. Listen. Learn to listen empathically, with your eyes, ears and heart. Listen without judgment and listen to understand and connect with your employees.
