Engaging Employees for Performance

Synopsis

The most productive managers and leaders are those who are able to engage their employees on a consistent basis. This is easier said than done as different people become engaged in different ways and for different reasons. However, the inability to engage employees could lead to people becoming disengaged on their jobs.

It can be very challenging for managers and leaders when employees become disengaged on their jobs. You know who they are, you have seen them before and some may even be your own staff, your relatives or close friends. You know what we mean; these are the people who “go to work without working”. And the reality is this happens to both competent and not competent employees!

The key question then is what are the interventions that managers and leaders can take to prevent their staff from moving into this category and how to continuously engage them?  

This two-day practical and intensive session will impart the essential competencies to managers and leaders to engage their employees so that the team achieves their relevant key performance indicators.

Michael Carr is an internationally experienced business manager with more than 30 years corporate experience garnered from working in England and Asia. His experience in the Asian Region commenced in 1998 when he assumed the position of Regional Director of a blue-chip, UK public-listed multinational being responsible for driving and implementing the strategic direction of a number of companies in a variety of Asian markets. These markets included Australia, U.A.E., Indonesia, Singapore, India and Malaysia.

He has seen the ups and downs of economies and their impact on corporate strategies – giving him the knowledge and skills in dealing with an ever changing world. These experiences continue to reinforce his belief in the importance of having strong leaders within the organization. As he aptly puts it, when things are not going right in my or any organisation, the first echelon of people that I will focus on are the leaders as they are the ones who have the accountability to make things happen.

His working experience in Asia has enabled him to understand the working and leadership cultures within the Asian Region. He uses this knowledge to develop the appropriate interventions and share with his participants to help them to achieve their leadership potential.
