Remember that acknowledgment and praise should not be reserved for formal meetings or year-end reviews only. You can offer a word of acknowledgment in passing at the water cooler. Often, it's those little interactions that leave a lasting impression.
If you want to be a leader people can't seem to resist—the kind of leader who has loyal employees and a strong environment of trust—then you need to focus on these three employee engagement practices. Not only will your current employees find you irresistible, but you'll also have a steady stream of eager potential employees (the best of the best) who want to work with you. Ultimately, the more engagement and partnership you have with your team, the more rewarding the work experience will be for everyone. That's when the organization will experience true and lasting success.
