With many employers requiring workers to return to the office, they are finding varying levels of success in doing so. One of the reasons is a limited understanding and appreciation of the various types of relationships that exist in office cultures. In this new Harvard Business Review article, the authors explain how a more nuanced approach to interoffice relationships that considers the following four interrelated elements: employee connections with their colleagues, leader, employer, and role, can help make the return to the office more successful and rewarding for everyone. #leadership #careers #employeeengagement

When staff come to the #workplace they build relationships along 4 distinct tracks: with their colleagues, their #leader, their #employer, and their own role. All good so far. There is a plethora of studies providing insights into how to navigate returning to the workplace in person. All have meaningful insights and #evidence of some type. #Organizations, clearly in much smaller form, have been around for hundreds of years. And they overwhelmingly convened in person. Fair to ask how does the recent data compare to those hundreds of years of in-person connections, for which we have no or little data? #data #future #leadership #innovation #management #humanresources #socialnetworking

Yet another good read: At this moment in work, when employers and employees are contending with lagging engagement, rapid and constant change, and a general lack of trust, getting workplace connections right is a business imperative
Connection in the workplace goes beyond just interpersonal relationships with co-workers. New research from the NeuroLeadership Institute and Akamai Technologies reveals that workplace connection is actually made up of four essential elements: employee connections with colleagues, leaders, employers, and their roles. In their Harvard Business Review article, Khalil Smith, Brigid Lynn, PhD, MPH, and Dr. David Rock explain how this deeper understanding has important implications for designing talent strategies that foster employee commitment, engagement, and performance.

Rethinking Workplace Strategies: The NeuroLeadership Institute and Akamai highlight the importance of the CLEAR framework (Connection, Leadership, Environment, Alignment, and Role) in fostering workplace connections instead of asking employees to return to the office. Focusing on these CLEAR elements can drive better engagement and performance. #workplace #Connection #Leadership #Engagement

People do what they value, but often they don't understand their values. When we facilitate a conversation on values and motivations with a team, the 'aha moments' come thick and fast. We also help people discover whether they're being motivated in their current role and empower the team to help everyone get more of what's important to them. Growth, trust, autonomy, authenticity, equity, care, knowledge, impact, and more. Make conscious choices to increase job satisfaction, retention, and empowerment. #values #wedowhatwevalue #powerful #insights #teamsessions

Interesting article based on interorganizational research collaboration with the research team at the NeuroLeadership Institute (NLI), along with technology firm Akamai. They identified that connection in the workplace is, in fact, made up of four interrelated and essential elements: employee connections with their colleagues, leader, employer, and role (CLEAR). What is your workplace doing well? How are some employers getting it wrong and why so many are resisting return to work mandates etc. #connect #collaboration #teamdevelopment #teameffectiveness

"At this moment in work, when employers and employees are contending with lagging engagement, rapid and constant change, and a general lack of trust, getting workplace connections right is a business imperative." Thinking CLEAR (employee connections with their colleagues, leader, employer, and role -- the 4 ingredients of connection per a new NeuroLeadership Institute study) about connection in the workplace is vital to retain and foster a committed, engaged, and high performing workforce. #employeewellbeing #socialconnection #leadership #engagement #retention #RTO
