Fireside Chat: Inspire Greater Employee Engagement by Connecting to Purpose

In today's fast-paced business environment, employee engagement is more crucial than ever. Yet, as Steve Curtin, author of "The Revelation Conversation," points out, "Most sophisticated organizations make the time and make the investment in articulating a mission or a vision or a purpose statement, core values, corporate ideals, but very few of the employees within that organization even at the senior level can recall them."

This disconnect between organizational purpose and employee understanding was the focus of our recent session, where we explored strategies to inspire greater employee engagement by connecting individuals to their work's purpose.

Key Takeaways:
1. Job Purpose and Essence: Understanding the distinction between job functions (what you do and how you do it) and job essence (why you do it) is crucial for employee engagement. Managers should help employees connect their daily tasks to the organization's higher purpose.
2. The Revelation Conversation: Regular, informal conversations between managers and employees about job purpose can significantly improve engagement. These conversations should focus on helping employees understand their role's essence and its connection to the organization's mission.
3. Aligning Values and Behaviors: Organizations should not only define their core values but also create value statements that explain how these values translate into specific behaviors. This helps employees understand how to embody the organization's values in their daily work.
By focusing on these areas, organizations can bridge the gap between their stated purpose and their employees' day-to-day experiences, fostering a more engaged, motivated, and purposeful workforce.

We are all born with an inexhaustible and undeniable potential to learn. The brain has 200 billion neurons linked to one another through hundreds of trillions of connections called synapses. Neuroscientists are discovering the mechanisms of the brain that underpin theories of neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to modify, change, and adapt both structure and function in response to “experiences.”

My book will enable you to harness the transcendent power of lifelong learning to sustain your career, be resilient in the face of change, and reveal your greatest potential.

Based on cutting edge neuroscience and cognitive psychology, this book will debunk learning myths that hinder your ability to be a learner as well as provide you with:
⭐ Strategies to overcome the predominant barriers to learning.
⭐ Resources and ideas for integrating continual learning in your daily life.
⭐ Approaches for developing a life-long learning practice.

Hardwired to Learn is organized into five parts:

1️⃣ sets the stage by highlighting the industrial revolutions of the past and the social changes and disruptions brought by each.

2️⃣ recaps the origins of our ideas about learning and how the evolution of those theories over the past several hundred years have deepened our knowledge of ourselves and how we learn.

3️⃣ identifies the barriers to learning, largely influenced by the myths exposed in Part 2.

4️⃣ offers a curated set of tools and resources to improve the way you learn and provides you with the mindset and methods you can use to become a lifelong learner.

5️⃣ brings this all together by providing historic examples of how and why learning has stood apart as the sole means for our survival since our species first traversed the frozen tundra.

Whether you are a seasoned employee, starting your career, or looking to change careers, lifelong learning is the key to unlocking lifelong potential in your career and personal life.

Diversity initiatives are falling short. This book shows leaders how to develop the skills needed to build sustainably inclusive organizations using a tested, research-based model developed by the global organizational consulting firm Korn Ferry.

According to the journal Human Resource Management, companies are spending over $8 billion a year on diversity programs. Yet today, the senior leadership teams at Fortune 500 companies are far from mirroring the diversity of their workforce and its customers. Andrés Tapia and Alina Polonskaia, senior leaders at Korn Ferry, argue that to build sustainable diversity and inclusion, organizations need to have inclusive leaders at all levels.

In this book, Tapia and Polonskaia draw on Korn Ferry's massive database of 3 million leadership assessments to reveal the essential qualities of inclusive leaders. They discuss the personality traits these leaders share and detail how to develop what they call the five disciplines of inclusive leadership: building interpersonal trust, integrating diverse perspectives, optimizing talent, applying an adaptive mindset, and achieving transformation.

Tapia and Polonskaia also outline the competencies behind each discipline, describe individual and organizational exemplars of inclusive leadership, and show how the five disciplines enable leaders to unleash the power of all people and to build both structurally and behaviorally inclusive organizations. This book will help leaders foster the skills to deal with today's complex challenges and create a more inclusive, sustainable, and prosperous future for all of us.

This book offers a new model for creating inclusive organizations and illuminates diversity's vital role in developing solutions to the critical social, environmental, and leadership challenges we face.

While many companies focus on DEI efforts, we must take inclusion to the next level. Our massive social, economic, and environmental challenges can only be solved when organizations and institutions embrace complete inclusion. This book gives organizations practical steps for increasing diversity to enhance their capacity to solve global challenges.

Andres T. Tapia and Fayruz Kirtzman, senior client partners at international consulting powerhouse Korn Ferry, draw on Korn Ferry'sthe company's extensive research to outline five disciplines of inclusive organizations. These are the ability to:
<ol>
 	<li>Managing the risk</li>
 	<li>Exploring the awareness</li>
 	<li>Maximizing the talent systems</li>
 	<li>Mastering the logistics</li>
 	<li>Seeing the marketplace</li>
</ol>
&nbsp;

Based on metrics and proven solutions, this book provides useful strategies for building inclusive organizations. It reveals how such organizations can generate greater innovation, drive business results, optimize talent, and work towards greater social and environmental justice.

The 5 Disciplines of Inclusive Organizations: How Diverse and Equitable Enterprises Will Transform the World

Nearly every organization has a mission, vision, or purpose statement displayed on its website or framed and mounted in the executive corridor. But it is largely unknown to employees and seemingly unrelated to their daily jobs.

As a result, while employees may possess the knowledge and skills to do their jobs, they are unaware of what bestselling customer service author Steve Curtin calls job purpose: how their specific tasks contribute to the organization’s reason for being. They understand what to do and how to do it, but not why they do it.

Curtin offers a fresh tool to overcome this challenge. The Revelation Conversation is a one-on-one exchange where leaders and managers involve employees in discovering their total job role, connect job duties to job purpose, and inspire greater employee engagement. Instead of just having assignments to work on, they now have a purpose of working toward. Service quality goes from transactional to exceptional.

The book contains dozens of examples of how leading companies link their corporate ideals to employees’ daily job responsibilities. By creating an environment for employees to do work that matters rather than simply checking boxes and going through the motions, employers will reap the benefits of higher employee engagement, productivity, and customer satisfaction.
