GREAT TEAMS BUILD GREAT ORGANIZATIONS.

Engaged employees are the lifeline of organizations. Engaged workers work with purpose and enthusiasm, and are the ones who will drive it forward.

Employee engagement is vital to driving company success. They care more for their companies, are more customer-oriented, more team-focused, more productive, more rewarding, and less likely to be missing or leave the organization.

In a Gallup's study * of offices in more than 142 countries on the planet from 2011 through 2012, it revealed that 13 % of employees are engaged, 63 % are not engaged and 24 % are actively disengaged. In Asia, the numbers are not very far behind with East Asia having the dubious honor of have the most affordable proportion on the planet of engaged employees.

(* State of the Global Workplace: Employee Engagement Insights for Business Leaders Worldwide).

Gallup categorizes the 'not engaged' as mentally disengaged from their companies and are less likely to be productive. The actively disengaged are more destructive as it is a tremendous drain on the resources for the company. Daily, these employees are hectic acting out their dissatisfaction and distress and they weaken what their engaged colleagues have accomplished.

Investing into employee's strengths creates opportunities for them to do what they love to do and what they do finest everyday. Organizations who invest in strengths have workers that are 6x more most likely to be engaged in their jobs and 3x more likely to have an exceptional quality of life.

Organizational engagement begins with supervisors and leaders who can make strengths engagement part of the organization's growth method. Our work with organizations help managers and staff members discover the talents in themselves, their teammates, and help them bridge the spaces to reach peak performance and become engaged, and in turn, construct interdependent teams. Strengths advancement and engagement drives team objectives, bonding, partnership, talent development, management development and ultimately, profitability.

START WITH TALENTS, END WITH STRENGTHS.

Do you have the opportunities to do what you do best and do what you enjoy every day? It is fairly likely your response is 'often' or perhaps 'no'.

Or have you have been attempting to advance in your life and profession by dealing with your weaknesses?

In the weakness-obsessed societies that we live in, we somehow believe that by discovering out what we are weak in and then getting to work on them, we can become great. That if we can repair exactly what is wrong with us, we can become strong.

Exactly what is natural in the diamond is comparable to the inherent skills in us. Skills are our natural and recurring patterns of habits, thought and feeling. The challenge for us is to expose that diamond in us, our talents, and know how make it shine and flourish in strengths.

People are at their best when they are able to engage their skills and construct strengths for efficiency. Start with your talents and end with strengths.
