Remember those old and scratchy vinyl records that would skip and play the same thing over and over until you moved the needle? (I know I’m showing my age, play along.)
Well, the Gallup Organization has been playing a tune now for over three decades, one that sure sounds a lot like a scratchy record that won’t move forward. You know it well—roughly 30 percent of employees in the U.S. are actually engaged in their work. But here’s the part of the song that keeps skipping incessantly: People leave managers, not companies.
We’ve known this for a while and yet we can’t seem to solve the leadership crisis that will result in happy, engaged, and motivated workers.
That’s because most people in positions of power don’t have a clear understanding of what it truly takes to influence others. You don’t manage people; you lead people and manage the work.
