In this new, supercharged, super-fast, super-competitive economy, we’re sure you’d agree that we need customers to love our brands, love our products and advocate for our companies.

There is serious pressure for organization leaders to engage employees and hit peak productivity. In 2017, 56% of CEOs reported “recruiting and retention” as primary concerns. A company cannot function without its employees; individuals that have valuable skills and training that can take weeks, months or years to match. So, of course, HR is in overdrive, managing engagement, strategizing long-term retention plans and calculating turnover rates.

Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

I’m a huge introvert, which means that I need quiet time to recharge. So, I’ve been known to ask questions like, “Do I need to make that decision right away?” or “Can I sleep on that?”. These are ways for me (the introvert) to find time to process information. It doesn’t mean that the answer would be negative. It just means I need time to think. Another comment that people might make to buy themselves some thinking time is “Let me check my calendar and get back to you.

Our work and our company are a part of who we are. The job, then, becomes more than just a set of tasks we perform. When employees find connection , they work as a team, generate ideas, solve problems, take care of customers, and act with the organization’s best interests in mind.
