Employee Experience Directly Impacts ROI
We’ve never invested more time, more money, or more resources into employee engagement programs. We spend billions of dollars every year, but around the world, employee engagement scores aren’t improving. Why? Because it’s the employee experience that creates an engaged workforce.

This is based on a concept created by a psychologist named Thomas Gilovich. He realized that if you invest in a physical good, your satisfaction goes down over time. However, if you invest in an experience, over time, your satisfaction goes up.

3 Things We Can Learn From Walmart Founder Sam Walton
Sam Walton, founder of Walmart, passed away in 1992, but the company he created is still one of the world's largest employers today. In many ways, the impact of his leadership is still felt today. Sam's leadership lessons can guide us today in 2021 as much as they did many many decades ago. Here are three things Sam did that you as a leader should do as well: 1. Ask questions. Sam was considered a master questionnaire. He was constantly talking to people at all levels of the company. He showed that he valued other people's perspectives, opinions, and ideas by truly trying to ask thoughtful questions. 2. Surround yourself with people who are smarter than you. A leader's job isn't to be the smartest person in the room. A leader's job is to assemble a team and to create an organization where people are smarter than the leader is. 3. Hold on to what's working and change what isn’t. It's easy to get wrapped up in new things. But don't get rid of a successful practice or method simply to chase something shiny and new. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Namely.

5 Things You Can Do To Be Heard At Work
We live in a connected world where everybody's trying to stand out and make their voice heard. This can make it feel like you are just a drop in an ocean. So how can you possibly get noticed? If you want to learn and grow and have your voice get heard, here are five things you can do: 1. Speak up in meetings. Be confident that you were invited there for a reason to contribute something and not just to be a body. 2. Join a committee or an employee resource group. Find something that matches your talents and interests and go all in. 3. Participate in your company's internal collaboration platforms. Pretty much every organization uses some sort of technology for employees to communicate and collaborate. Take advantage of those platforms. 4. Ask questions. If you struggle to share your own ideas, start by asking questions of others. 5. Offer a solution. Stop pointing out what’s wrong and offer a solution. Don't be afraid to make your voice heard. It will help you develop and be more successful in your career and in life. --------------------- This episode is sponsored by Namely.
