Description
A key challenge for leaders in this now volatile, dynamic and uncertain world, is how to skillfully motivate and influence the development of high-performing individuals and teams who are today more disengaged than ever. Simultaneously, leaders are charged with being more flexible, adaptable and resilient, doing more with less. It isn’t surprising that many are left feeling overwhelmed, frustrated and burnt-out trying to keep up and get the job done, often by themselves or with little support from their lack luster employees.
This is a HUGE problem that according to the 2024 Gallup Report, has resulted in $8.9 trillion lost in global GDP due to low engagement levels. Conversely, employees who are engaged drive up productivity, feel a sense of well-being which ultimately results in greater profitability. Although there is no magic wand, almost every recent piece of research points to the critical role of emotional intelligence in successfully moving the engagement dial.
