As a business coach I’ve discovered there are two opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to why a business doesn’t create a set of ideals, or as Jim Stengel calls it the Brand Ideal.

A recent meeting with one of my clients reminded me how one person with a bad attitude can hurt an organization.
If you don’t feel measuring employee engagement is important in your business please realize this. One person can dramatically affect the attitude of your people and undermine all the efforts you exert to improve morale and employee engagement.
My first full time job at a radio station in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin gives me personal knowledge of how one individual in the organization affected my energy, drive and faith in the organization I worked for. I was a full time sales rep, and Johnny Walker was our morning announcer. Since we lived close together and had recently been married we frequently got together after work and on the weekends to share beverages, dinner and other recreational activities. Invariably the discussion would turn to work. Johnny (not his real name) was ambitious. In fact he began to work part time in sales to earn more money before he eventually left the radio station.

One of the things I’ve prided myself on is carrying a good attitude and being positive no matter what this AML brought. Laugh, joke, smile and be thankful to the people who care for you and always expect the best. Always!!

Are you ready to get 2012 off to a roaring start? Would you like to get your team more inspired this year? Mike Schulte, Fleck Sales, earlier this year shared a video on what inspires your team. People don’t buy what you do; they buy why you do it. It’s the soft spot in your business that is frequently ignored or not valued as critically as is required. This subjective aspect of your business is included as Core Values, Core Purpose on your One Page Strategic Plan. They are often overlooked. Jim Collins in Built to Last, and Good to Great provided supportive proof that these elements are critical to business success. This video Simon Sinek: How great leaders inspire action offers insight into why you need the “WHY” in your business.
