Build a Cohesive Team

With average employee engagement topping near 30%, team engagement may be the most critical focal point of your leadership and development. Bill can inspire and guide your team to greater levels of engagement. Building a cohesive team doesn’t happen without intentional effort—but simple solutions can produce significant results.

Build the Trust

Trust, healthy conflict and accountability are the foundations of extraordinary team results. Learn to build the kind of trust that supports healthy conflict, which will lead to peer accountability. Take your team to new levels of performance by incorporating these concepts into your organizational process.

Start with Your People

Most organizations spend extravagant amounts of time and money on process and product development. What they often miss is the opportunity cost of investing in their team, the people who make the processes and products possible. Putting people before process will improve your employee engagement, process and product innovation, and client satisfaction. Get the tools necessary to shift your paradigm to people first.

The Rules of Engagement

Retaining top performers depends on engagement. Contrary to most leaders' actions, engagement is not purely a function of compensation. Discover what contributes to your team members’ sense of fulfillment and how to capitalize on their satisfaction. Learn how to incorporate the rules of engagement and entrench them in your personnel development systems.

EI is the only component you can improve over time. Bill can help you identify and navigates paths to growth in self-awareness and in management and social awareness. The growth will improve your level of satisfaction with your team engagement.

Appreciate to Elevate

Your team's number one desire? Feeling appreciated for their participation. Communicating appreciation in a way that drives engagement is an art. Every individual responds to one of four “languages” of appreciation. Discover how to communicate appreciation in ways that drive performance to new levels.
