We all know how technology enables communication – email, voicemail, text message, instant message, Twitter. the list goes on. There are more than enough ways to communicate, and too often they add up to message overload for employees. That’s why when something is important, nothing compares to face-to-face communication. When a leader needs to inspire people—or move them to action—the best way to do it is to look people in the eye and tell them exactly what they need to know.

When it comes to leadership, many of us have developed habits or strategies that have served us well in not only achieving our organization's goals, but driving future growth and success. But is it possible that at times the conventional wisdom we've come to rely on about our leadership might actually impede or even derail our efforts going forward?

“The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don’t play together, the club won’t be worth a dime.” - BABE RUTH. The age-old question of how to bring teams together and encourage a culture of collaboration has troubled managers for decades now. You have the best employees in the market and yet that doesn’t convert to any results.

Disruptive companies aren’t created by accident. In order to hold this badge of honor, a business must successfully change how people think and behave. This is quite a tall order, especially for those companies just getting off the ground. While there’s a recipe for each business that makes it unique, only the top companies deliver innovative ideas that destroy all old ways of doing something.

After leading a set of software development teams from 2006 to 2008 using traditional methodologies I came to the insight that there had to be a better way to deliver high-quality software and create more opportunities for innovation and creativity in teams. I was introduced to Scrum by one of my mentors and started doing experiments immediately after.

The Problem with Metrics In modern knowledge work, no two tasks are exactly the same; no two teams work exactly the same together; and no two project contexts are quite like each other. This means that when we abstract these complex situations into numbers for metrics, they inherit all of that same complexity and imprecision. Now what looks like clear and simple numbers is actually a set of ranges and guesses.

Engagement Survey Success. What are the reasons engagement survey results languish? The success of your employee engagement survey relies upon sound planning and a commitment to take meaningful action when the results are in. A survey that is conducted out of mere curiosity and does not end up in visible action can be worse than no survey at all. Employees participate believing that something will change once their views are known.

Employee engagement , in a nutshell, is the level of emotional connect or investment an employee feels towards the organization.

What Are the Manager Roles to Master? For almost three decades we have asked employees to describe their best and worst bosses to help determine what sets a great manager apart from the pack. Based upon the data, we believe that the most effective managers excel at the hundreds of daily interactions and decisions that get the best out of their people in a way that makes sense to both the company and the people.
