Collecting a paycheck. 

If you've had a few jobs in your life, this phrase has likely crossed your mind.

Or fell off your tongue.

Going through the motions at work is frustrating and a waste of talent.

Leaders: Do you have employees who show up disengaged, collecting a paycheck rather than being eager to learn and contribute?

This disconnect isn't about people being lazy.

🚩They may feel like their voice doesn't matter. 

🚩They may not believe their work is having an impact.

A/E/C leaders must know that lighting a spark to re-engage people is rooted in curiosity.

Ask team members what's getting in the way. 

Ask them if they are clear on expectations. 

More than 90% of the emerging leaders in my online training classes say they're unsure how their daily work fits into the bigger picture of the firm. 

It's the 30,000-foot view and the 3,000-foot view. 

Without clarity, people show up to collect paychecks.

Clarity brings a sense of purpose. 

🎯And it's an opportunity for manag...

Yes, physical safety and mental health must always be top priorities in our industry.

There's a different kind of safety that firms often overlook: Psychological safety.

It's an essential form of communication.

Psychological safety means that staff feel comfortable and safe in expressing their emotions, using their voices, and sharing concerns — without judgment or repercussions.

➡️It directly impacts emotional well-being, talent retention, performance, and job dissatisfaction.

When leaders in my training programs are unsure of this practice, I worry.

Are your emerging leaders and executives using psychological safety practices to support staff?

Imagine getting a 5,000% return-on-investment from an online training program.

Almost everyone in A/E/C is on a leadership and succession planning kick.

Employee acquisition and retention in our ongoing labor shortage poses unique challenges.

Interestingly, the challenges all circle back to communication.

YOUR communication.

👉We're often quick to pass the buck to our post-COVID world.

👉Or to Gen Z and their phone addictions.

👉Or to TikTok influencers and goofball memes.

Look, no one is to "blame" for the industry's struggles with interpersonal communication.

It's time to take ownership of our collective responsibility so we can all do better.

Like a drone, business and personal growth requires us to see the big picture.

• Exploring: Thousands of years ago, curious cave dwellers went on daily quests to find food. The word "quest" is the root of questions.

Are you asking yourself the right questions to uncover the root of what your team really needs? 

Are conversations and meetings nourishing and feeding them?
