What would you do?
Self Management

• The skill of reflection enables you to test the validity and assumptions behind your thoughts and anticipated response
• How?
STOP
TEST and REFLECT
CHOOSE AND ACT appropriately
24
Or at least slow down
What is the emotion telling me?What is the message behind the emotion?Why am I feeling as I am?What are possible responses?
Choose the most appropriate response and act on it
STOP
REFLECT
CHOOSEAND ACT
Activity : The Stop-Test Challenge
25
Stop (The Event i.e. The Cookie Thief)
• Think of an event where you did not like your response. What happened? How did you respond?
• Think of an event where you ‘lost it’, got really angry or overwhelmed. What happened? How did you respond?
• Think of an event that did not go in the direction that you wanted it to because of your response. What happened? How did you respond?
(continued): The Stop-Test Challenge
26
Think, Reflect and Test (Choose your Response)
• What did you believe that made you respond in that way
• What did you feel that made you behave as you did?
• What are other possible ways that you could have reacted. Generate a list, (however far-fetched).
The Power of Choice
27
Between the Event and my Response there is a space.In that space lies my freedom and power
to choose.
“Can I choose a different response to get the result I want?”
“What could my options possibly be?”
In these Choices,lies our Emotional Intelligence
Event Freedom to Choose Response
(continued): The Stop-Test Challenge
28
Choose Response and Act
• What would you have had to do, think or change in order to make that choice?
• Can I think of an event you would like to apply this technique to now?
Tool 1: Pause Button
• Awareness of the physiological and emotional signals
• Push the Pause Button
• Identify and acknowledge your feelings and behaviours
• Make a CHOICE to adapt your feelings and behaviours that will lead to constructiveness and personal accountability

I may need a change of character.”

Managing Employee Engagement & Performance
The Power of Employee Engagement
What is Employee Engagement?
Heightened connection to work, organization, mission or co-workers Beyond job satisfaction or happiness Personal meaning in work
• Pride • Belief their organization values them
More likely to go above minimum and provide “discretionary effort.”
Employee Engagement
Source: HR Future June 2005
Employee engagement is a property of the relationship between an organisation and its employees. An engaged employee is one who is fully absorbed by and enthusiastic about their work and so takes positive action to further the organisation’s reputation and interests.
An organisation with ‘high’ employee engagement might therefore be expected to outperform those with ‘low’ employee engagement, all things being equal.
Employees with the highest level of employee commitment perform 20% better and are 87% less likely to leave the organisation, which indicates that engagement is linked to organisational performance.In a study of professional service firms, the Hay Group found that offices with engaged employees were up to 43% more productive.
Why Does Engagement Matter?
Benefits of Employee Engagement
Higher levels of engagement drive:
Improved employee performance to support mission
More collaborative and innovative work environments
Lower costs of disengagement.

The Virtuous Cycle Of Engagement

Engagement is ‘The extent to which employees are motivated to contribute to organisational success and are willing to apply discretionary effort to accomplish tasks important to the achievement of organizational goals’.

Engagement Survey Questions
Understand Motivation in Teams
55
What is motivation?
Motivation is the force that makes us do things.
This is a result of our individual needs being satisfied so that we have inspiration to complete the task.
These needs vary from person to person as everybody has their individual needs to motivate themselves.
Movement vs. Motivation
MOVEMENT takes place when employees do a job only for some benefit, or to carry out a task only to avoid some unpleasant consequence.
This ‘movement’ can take place from behind or from the front e.g. threats of punishment is movement from behind. ‘Carrots’ to induce staff to perform better is movement from the front.
Example: Employees complete a task quickly if told they can go home early! This is movement, not motivation. They do not work quickly because they enjoy the work – they want the free time!
Source: Creating Winners in the Workplace by Dr Arnold Mol
Motivation – Pride
People are motivated to perform a task with dedication, only when that task awakens their PRIDE. Pride in what they can or have achieved.
If employees do not go home at the end of the day with a feeling of ‘Wow! Look how good I am! Look what I have achieved!’ you have failed to motivate them.
Source: Creating Winners in the Workplace by Dr Arnold Mol
Human beings, regardless of race, culture or level of education, have a deep-down desire to be proud of themselves. There will be exceptions, but the majority of people not only want to be proud of themselves, they also want to be respected by others for their achievements.
The most effective leaders are those who have discovered the secret of harnessing the pride of their teams.

Working conditions
An experience of SUCCESS• Keep score, enable people to improve their own best score.
• Allow them to set their own goals.
RESPONSIBILITY• Delegate decision making – two people can’t be responsible for the same thing
(e.g. safety or quality)!
• Effective managers help subordinates to do the work, not the other way around!
RECOGNITION for achievement
• The need for recognition is a basic human need.
• Giving positive feedback costs nothing!
• Trouble makers are often just looking for attention.
Factors That Create Pride
1. My Area - territory.Responsibility for an area.
2. My Equipment.Responsibility for operation, maintenance and outputs – P & PC.Ownership implies functional authority (e.g. machine operators given authority to stop production).
3. My Product.Responsibility for a range of products (merchandisers).
4. My Client.Responsibility for specific clients.
Source: Creating Winners in the Workplace by Dr Arnold Mol
Ownership – Giving A persons Complete Job
Factors that give people a sense of ownership of their jobs:
Power means ‘control, authority, dominion’. The prefix ‘em’ means ‘to put onto’ or ‘to cover with’.
Empowering, then is passing on authority and responsibility. As we refer to it here, empowerment occurs when power goes to employees who then experience a sense of ownership and control over their jobs.
Empowered individuals know that their jobs belong to them. Given a say in how things are done, employees feel more responsible. When they feel responsible, they show more initiative in their work, get more done, and enjoy the work more.
