We spend so much of our lives working, but are we really getting the most out of that time?

So often we focus on hours logged instead of how productive those hours were, but it takes a leader, manager or staff member who’s really engaged to get the most out of their time at work.

When your managers are working smarter, you’re getting more done, you’re making your customers more satisfied, and you’re keeping your staff happier.

Worldwide research suggests that leaders and managers have a huge impact on employee engagement, indeed they are critical to how colleagues feel.

Working at an organisational level means that your resources are spread more thinly, so it’s little wonder that traditional engagement techniques result in small gains. However, by focusing our attention on leaders and managers, we have a greater chance of creating transformational engagement.
