‘You need to communicate your strategy to employees. Employees and management should feel comfortable having open conversations about compensations. Transparency from leadership … is key to supporting better employee experience and job satisfaction.‘- Doug Dennerline and Jamie Aitken

Frequent, relevant feedback coupled with personal recognition has the power to transform employee performance and culture. Recognition promotes teamwork, collaboration, and cultural values- and you can amplify that impact by making appreciation visible company-wide.’- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘One of the best ways to ensure you’re enabling performance is to use an enterprise software program that increases engagement, is lightweight, and allows for bidirectional feedback between employees and managers.’- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘The best way to get performance management … systems to work is to create a culture where honest feedback can be given in a safe environment where employees won’t feel threatened.’- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘The greatest leaders enables others to disrupt the status quo and facilitate growth, innovation, and change.’- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘Employees want to know that managers and coworkers have their back and can support them in accomplishing their work. Above all, employees want to see how their contributions matter.’- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

Creating a culture of feedback starts at the top. If the leaders in the company aren’t willing to accept feedback, own their mistakes, and be transparent about their own and the company’s goals, how then can they expect their employees to do so.’- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘What people want most from their leadership are assurance, trust, teamwork, and a shared sense of purpose.’– doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘When goals are rigid and don’t reflect changing work circumastances, employees feel trapped, and goals are viewed as meaningless.’- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘Don’t wait for the annual performance review to evaluate and let go of poor performers.’– doug dennerline and jamie aitken

‘Organizations and their leaders should worry less about compliance, ranking, and reviews and more about the big picture, creating a culture of coaching and feedback that empowers employees to use their skills and talents to support the company’s goals while also achieving their own.‘- doug dennerline and jamie aitken

Why You Must Make Up Your Mind

Plato said, ‘Make up your mind, then, or rather have your mind already made up, for the time of delibration is over, and there is only one thing to be done, which must be done this very night, and if we delay at all will be no longer practicable or possible.’

If you know what you want for yourself, then stop waiting. Do not waste your time. The time of serious thinking is over. The time of intense planning is over. And the time of doubt, of fear, is over. Now is the time to act. If you do not act to make your dreams come true, they will die.

Whatever you want to do in your life, you can do it. And if you do not do it, your life will never change. Remember, for your life to change, something must change. According to Ozan Varol, ‘The key is to forget the noun and do the verb instead. If you want to be a blogger, start blogging every week. If you want to be a stand-up comedian, start performing at open-mic nights. If you want to be a podcaster, podcasting.’

If you want your life to take a different direction, you must take a different direction.’

He is right. If you want anything to change in your life, you must take action. If you want to get rid of something you do not like in your life, you have got to take a big action. If not, nothing is going to happen. Because nothing happens without action.
