Did you know that 83% of U.S. gross domestic product comes from services or information which are created and delivered by people?
The challenge for leaders is revealed in a Gallup poll showing that only 26% of U.S. employees are fully engaged at any time. On the other end of the spectrum, 19% of employees are actively disengaged, meaning they intentionally act in ways that negatively impact their organizations. The annual cost nationwide to employ this actively disengaged group exceeds $1 trillion.
Your people – and the performance they deliver – are the defining competitive advantage for your organization.
Leaders are the key to engaging employees’ minds and hearts so they deliver value for your organization.

When my needs are not met, I’m frustrated, out of control, unfocused, and disconnected – in a word, disengaged.
We all have these basic human needs, and they have remained the same amidst the tornado of external change. Times have changed, and our world has certainly changed, but people have not. In many organizations today, these basic needs still go unfulfilled. It’s up to you as the leader to fulfill them.
To meet these needs, leaders must first see them and acknowledge them. In order to see them, leaders must view their employees as people and not just workers. If you look at your employees as people, you can identify these six basic needs – three intellectual and three emotional
