Employees who have been pushed to the point where they no longer care, will not go the extra mile.\u2014Brigette Hyacinth<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Did you know that Gallup research found that 70% of an employee\u2019s motivation is influenced by their boss?<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve shared stories before about why boss\/employee relationships are critical, but the 70% statistic for motivating staff was higher than we expected. We\u2019ve also shared tips for improving relationships and for creating loyalty in the workplace, but author Brigette Hyacinth provides even more:
\n1.\u00a0 Connect with staff\u00a0<\/strong>– Make your presence felt. Get to know your employees.<\/p>\n

2. Show employees that you genuinely care.<\/strong> Show empathy when they have problems. Advocate for your team. Stand up for them when things go wrong.<\/p>\n

3. Practice Open and Honest two-way Communication.<\/strong> Keep employees informed. Listen. Have an atmosphere where employees\u2019 ideas and suggestions are valued and acted on.<\/p>\n

4. Be fair and neutral.<\/strong> Treat everyone fairly. Lead by example. Be known as a person of integrity.<\/p>\n

5. Empower Employees.<\/strong> Provide them with the proper tools, give them room to get the job done. Don\u2019t micromanage!<\/p>\n

6. Reward and Recognition\u00a0<\/strong>– Offer incentives. Show employees how much you value and appreciate them. Reward staff for good work, be generous with “Thank Yous.”<\/p>\n

7. Recommend employees for training and new opportunities.<\/strong> Acknowledge and encourage strengths, recognize different skills, and provide training and development opportunities.<\/p>\n

How often have you heard “employees are your most valuable asset”? It\u2019s said often because it\u2019s true, however if the employee feels that this is a hollow statement, loyalty and commitment will be lacking.<\/p>\n

Hyacinth concludes by saying “you can’t buy loyalty, but you can certainly foster and nurture it”.<\/em><\/p>\n

No argument from us!<\/p>\n

Employee loyalty begins with employer loyalty. Your employees should know that if they do the job they were hired to do with a reasonable amount of competence and efficiency, you will support them.–Harvey Mackay<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
