Your best people are leaving because you suck at showing appreciation.
The key is to identify who your best employees are…
…then double down on rewarding them.
Why?
Per Gallup, rewarding your best people has a huge impact on organization growth.
In fact, employees who feel valued are 20x's as more likely to be aligned with company goals compared to employees who don’t feel valued.
Rewarding the right behavior will have a positive impact on company culture as well.
In this Fuel Your Growth infographic we dive into 11 positive workplace animals and how each can be identified for their positive traits...
...so you can teach your people to emulate their behaviors!
Behaviors such as:
1. Dog (The Loyal Teammate)
2. Chimp (Leads by Example)
3. Dolphin (The Communicator)
4. Sloth (The Patient Listener)
5. Bee (High Work Ethic)
6. Kangaroo (Agile Adapter)
7. Butterfly (Change Agent)
8. Tiger (Strategic Thinker)
9. Penguin (Cooperative Partner)
10. Bull (Over Achiever)

Great infographic. In creating an excellent workplace culture, we frequently meet a range of personalities and traits that add to a lively and dynamic setting. Motivated by the perceptive illustration "11 Positive Workplace Animals," I have understood the significance of adopting various traits based on the role, circumstance, or task.
I resonate with the Chimp, Kangaroo, Butterfly, and Tiger:
Chimp (Leadership Exemplar)
Traits: Confident, motivational, guiding.
Emulation: Engaging in mentorship, sharing expertise, and nurturing development.
Application: In leadership, I aim to be a role model, leading my team with assurance and motivation.
Kangaroo (Versatile Innovator)
Traits: Adaptable, resilient, inventive.
Emulation: Welcoming change, fostering creative thinking, maintaining flexibility.
Application: Faced with change, I embrace the Kangaroo's adaptability, swiftly adjusting and innovating to uncover unique solutions.
Butterfly (Innovative Catalyst)
Traits: Welcoming change, idea generator, innovation promoter.
Emulation: Receptive to novel concepts, stimulating creativity, aiding in transformation.
Application: I draw on the Butterfly's spirit in transformative projects, encouraging fresh perspectives and spearheading innovation for significant results.
Tiger (Strategic Visionary)
Traits: Concentrated, methodical, resolute.
Emulation: Delving into data analysis, planning strategically, and executing decisive actions.
Application: In tasks requiring strategic insight and critical analysis, I take on the Tiger's approach, thoroughly evaluating scenarios to make well-informed decisions.
The variety of traits highlights the complex nature of professional roles. Depending on the situation, we may need to transition from strategic thinking to agile adapting or from initiating change to setting an example. By embracing this versatility, we can contribute more effectively to our teams and organizations.
Consider the workplace traits that you identify with. How do they correspond with your roles and responsibilities? By embracing your diverse qualities, you can help foster a stronger, more adaptable, and innovative workplace culture.

"We're a family..." = we want something from you.
"The business has decided..." = we're taking something from you.
Employers code-switch like this often when they communicate with us.
Sometimes they approach us as a group of well-intentioned humans.
Other times they approach us as an entity; a configuration of systems, processes, priorities and needs.
I'm not interested in villainizing either approach.
I'm interested in how we as employees can expect this and navigate it to our benefit.
Here's what has helped me most in this area:
1. Root my self-worth in who I am and not in what I produce - this increases confidence.
2. Limit my emotional attachment to my employer/job - this increases clarity.
3. Take others' behavior at face value - this increases actionable insight.
4. Prioritize the life I want over my employer's success - this increases performance, motivation and mobility.
Book some time with me if you want to put this into action in your life and career. - https://buff.ly/46h4mYU#coaching#bestadvice#sales#leadership#management#careers

The not so obvious key to success throughout my career… I was most successful when my personal values were in alignment with the values of the Leader and Company I worked for.
If you’ve never considered it, here are the 5 greatest benefits of ensuring your values are in alignment with the work that you do:
📌 MOTIVATION & ENGAGEMENT – a sense of purpose and meaning make your efforts worthwhile and enjoyable.
📌 JOB SATISFACTION – A sense of fulfillment and contentment is essential to long-term success and career progression
📌 COMMITMENT – A strong alignment contributes to higher levels of productivity and dedication to the goal.
📌 COLLABORATION & RELATIONSHIPS – Shared principles can enhance communication, overall team dynamics, problem solving and innovation, and reduced conflict.
📌 PROFESSIONAL GROWTH – Alignment of values is more likely to support your career aspirations and provide an environment for advancement.
Values alignment is a powerful influencer for a persons success in an organization, with a Team or with a Leader. It creates work that is personally and professionally meaningful, purposeful and impactful and leading to greater fulfillment and job satisfaction. Values are powerful motivators whether we are aware of them or not. The more awareness you have of what is TRULY important to you, the easier it becomes to navigate uncertainty, critical decisions, relationships (especially difficult ones), and get efficiently and effectively step into action.

I'd like to introduce you all to the youngest of my three kids: Cora. Being a dad is one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. I’ve probably learned more about life from parenting than from any professional development resource.
As you admire Cora's cuteness (and trust me, she’s VERY cute with a touch of sass), you might notice something quirky: she's still closing her eyes while wearing goggles. For the longest time, we couldn't get her to open her eyes while swimming, so we thought goggles would do the trick. Yet, the habit is so ingrained that she keeps them shut, despite having the perfect tool to enjoy the water more fully.
Sound familiar? Growing businesses often fall into the same trap. Business leaders hire people to help, acknowledging their own bandwidth limits. But instead of training and trusting their new hires, they try to do everything themselves. Sometimes it's due to a lack of confidence in the training, but often it's because they don't trust the employee to do things their way. As a result, they hit their limits, overwork themselves, and create single points of failure by not delegating effectively.
If this sounds like your life story, here are some tips to help you move forward, take a breath, and find more joy in your work:
Map out your processes: Documenting your processes is like writing a recipe. A written process not only improves training but also acts as a lifesaver when things go awry.
Get the right people in the right seats: Finding the right hire can be like finding a needle in a haystack, especially when you're feeling short-handed. But the long-term benefits of a good fit far outweigh the short-term costs of a rushed hire.
Loosen your grip: At some point, you need to let employees show their stuff. Ensure they are well-trained, standardize your processes, and implement an evaluation system to keep your standards high.
Ultimately, embracing a philosophy where you hire the right people and then step back to let them do their job will transform your perspective on running your business!

🔍 Easier said than done? How realistic is it for you to be authentic at work? 🌈
In the hustle of the professional world, it's easy to get caught up is tasks and execution and intentionally or unintentionally mask your own emotions, thoughts or ideas. (Sometimes even from ourselves!)
But here's a secret to workplace magic: Authenticity. 🎭✨
Research shows being true to yourself fosters genuine connections and opens doors to innovation. Remember, your unique perspective adds unparalleled value to your team! 🚀
Being an authentic leader means embracing your strengths and acknowledging your vulnerabilities. It's about aligning your actions with your values and showing up, not as a perfect leader, but as a human first.
Sometimes the first step can be as 'simple' as increasing self-awareness and dig a little bit deeper on who you truly are. I can recommend Cassandra Goodman as an expert in that field.
Let's celebrate the authenticity that elevates teams and workplaces!
Share your thoughts on staying true while climbing the career ladder! 💬

Are you sick of people telling you to take action?
Don't read this then...
🤪 This post is indeed about that action.
What good are tremendous ideas without implementation?
You have to take action at some point and as cliché as “actionable items” have become, they're still critical.
Every day is an opportunity to take multiple actions.
I group them in two major categories:
Actions You HAVE to Take
&
Actions You GET to Take
A healthy existence includes a harmony of both types. Your current season of life will have a big say as to what this looks like.
I believe that a generous mindset will heavily increase the amount of “GET to"s you'll have.
Imagine a workplace where you and your colleagues GET to hello each other be successful everyday.
Would you be excited to wake up and take action for that?
==========================
I write a weekly newsletter letter that will help you attract the best talent and the most loyal customers with a generous workplace culture.
