One of my clients asked me to talk to her high level administrative professionals on “Empowering Yourself to Success.”
Her team is doing a GREAT job.
My task was to encourage them to get to their next level of continuous improvement.
This blog post contains some of the content that I used in the training.
A future blog post will address the total opposite situation…
How to deal with non-engaged employees.
I hope that you enjoy these ideas.
Make sure and share your concerns, stories, or questions about employee engagement…to reduce conflict in the workplace.

Doing Your Personal BEST
These are some of the comments that the audience answered when I asked them, “How do you do your personal best?”
- “I ask for more things to do.”
- “The more I know, the more I can contribute.”
- “I do what I can to make my boss look good.”
I shared the platform with Olympic Gold Medalist, Mary Lou Retton.
She told me how she feels about doing your personal best.“Champions don’t wait 4 years to make their heroic opportunity. They create their opportunity every day.
Champions practice because they treat workouts as the Olympics.
Anyone could win in the Olympics, but could does not count.”
Adding Value
- Make sure that you contribute more than you cost.
- Make a difference.
- Add enough value so that something very important would be missing if you left!
The title of this blog is …Why Should Your Company or Clients Keep You?
This is your chance to send in your answers to this question to me.
What are the reasons? Hey, if you don’t toot your own horn…who will?
Your answer may be a good one to keep during your next evaluation. 🙂
Use this post for a team meeting
Share this post with your team and ask them the same question. This is a great team exercise which I use during my training.
People who are modest are asked to go deep and share because we all need to know our strengths.
People who like boasting about themselves are asked to be very honest and share their talents.
The team will let them know if they are just bragging.
Be careful with this one because at times conflict can come out of these transparent exercises.
You know where to find me if you want me to help you discuss these important issues and hold each other accountable.
