Erynn Bell of #Degreed and Michael Puck of #UKG #UltimateKronosGroup get stuck into the weeds as to why only 13% of employees are actively engaged. What qualifies for active engagement? What motivates people? Why do managers make misguided assumptions about the motivations of their people?
We share practical tips and tools that the best managers use to create a safe environment, to earn discretionary effort, to manage inclusively. We identify what the best and the worst managers do that impacts engagement. We define the qualities of teams that are managed in such a way as they bring out the best in you, challenge you and earn loyalty.
We explore what makes the best millennial and Gen-Z employees scrappy and the trend towards purpose led capitalism. Packed with usable insights every manager needs to know and apply.

What Is Enterprise Influencer Marketing And Why You Should Care?
Tuesday Oct 20, 2020
Tuesday Oct 20, 2020
Unless you are thinking as the customer, you are probably leaving most of the potential in your markets and your accounts, untapped. Chris Germann is an expert in #Enterprise #InfluencerMarketing. He recommends you engage in conversation with:
- Analysts
- Customers
- Partners and Ecosystem Players
Why? Because those conversations have massive influence over your buyers, the kind of improvements you need to make to attract, win, keep and delight your customers over time. This conversation taps into the top and middle of the funnel, it opens possibilities to deepen and broaden your client relationships, and speaks volumes about your culture and how much you value your clients and the people you serve.

Why Are Your Strengths Your Best Development Areas?
Thursday Oct 15, 2020
Thursday Oct 15, 2020
"You could put me in a room and train me on Excel for 2 weeks and at the end of it, I'd still be crap at it", says I, "but put me in a room and teach me about selling, behavioural psychology, non-verbal communication and I will lap it up and be applying it and teaching it within 24 hours".
A strength is something you do well, can't wait to do, when you do it, you get great feedback, time flies when you're doing it, and when it's over, you can't wait to do it again. A weakness is the opposite of that. Can you see why playing to your strengths might result in highly engaged employees who are doing their best work and giving you massive discretionary effort?
Keith Webster has been working with #Gallup's #Strengthsfinder profiling tool and coaching strengths for the past 20 years. We explore why your strengths are your best development areas and what happens when you surround yourself with people who are all playing to their strengths. Listen to his experience and the impact working with people's strengths has on companies, teams, individuals and clients.

Why Success In The Future Will Depend On Collaboration
Thursday Oct 15, 2020
Thursday Oct 15, 2020
Ayman Husain shares example after example of how the smartest companies and best sales organisations are taking a #collaborative approach to #selling. We discuss the importance of being a true #partner with your #customers, operating like a general not a foot soldier. Have you considered the difference between playing the long game, spending enough time in research, creating relationships with people in the lines of business, investigating the risks they are trying to mitigate, their targets, taking the time, in advance, to understand what drives procurement, how they are measured, what they are focused on and the Board level strategies they're being asked to execute?
We delve into the counter-intuitive world of #coopetition, and having the foresight and courage to admit when they can do a better job than you, when to back away, when to take the lead and when to partner with even your fiercest rivals.
Ayman explains the challenges of oiling the wheels in your own organisation, making sure that the customer is put ahead of politics and empire building. We discuss how compensation of all those involved in winning, securing, growing, and keeping a client, turning them from a customer into a marketplace is critical to drive the correct behaviour, and in turn maximise utilisation and value for the customer.
Bring a pen and notepad to this episode. You will learn so much.

Selling is a Learning Profession
Monday Oct 12, 2020
Monday Oct 12, 2020
David Masover has been selling almost a long as I have and we both started out very, very badly. we talked about product and got no where, fast. Early in our careers we discovered we are responsible for our own development. No one else owes us a living and it is up to us to make ourselves better,
We discuss the critical importance of insatiable curiosity, the need to read widely, seek out help, have the humility to admit we don't know.
We look at hiring, management, coachability, character, grit and accountability.
