Imagine that you are on a whitewater rafting trip and coming into a big rapids your guide hollers >>>>>
Everybody
paddle!
And this guy in
the back of the
boat shouts
What do you do?
That’s right – you throw him out of
the boat!
Because if you don’t
When you’re in the middle of the rapids, it
doesn’t matter what your nametag says
Not my job
You grab your paddle and do your part!
We are in economic class 5 rapids
This little boat is you
And you cannot
afford to have people
like this!
Culture Assessment Surveys conducted by Values Coach
illustrate an unfortunate level of toxic emotional
negativity in the workplace
Other companies that study employee
engagement* consistently find:
~ 25% fully engaged
~ 60% not engaged
~ 15% aggressively disengaged
* e.g. Gallup, Avatar, Modern Survey, Press Ganey
Engaged: Spark PlugsSpark Plugs think like owners, like partners in the enterprise
19
No one has tell an owner to mow the lawn
Not Engaged: ZombiesRenting a spot on the
organization chart
21
Renters don’t mow the lawn or care for the place
Disengaged: VampiresSquatters
23
Squatters trash the place, and get paid for doing it
Disengaged people, especially disengaged managers, are a quality defect
Disengagement hurts everything…
Innovation suffers
Productivity suffers
Service suffers
Safety suffers
Gallup CEO Jim Clifton says employee disengagement costs our economy half a trillion (that’s trillion with a T!!!) every year!
Values Coach surveys show that the cost of toxic emotional negativity ranges from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of millions of dollars per year!
But what’s more tragic...
Life-diminishing impact on the disengaged.
“Disengagement [is] one of the chief causes of underachievement and depression.”
Edward M. Hallowell, M.D. in HBR, 12-10
