Hey, today I’ve got a little tip for you for your employees. We’ve got a saying at Confidence Coach “taking your employees from paycheck to purpose and creating dream employees”.
So today, as you think about your employees and you think about getting them engaged in what you’re doing, what your mission is, what your goals are for the company and that type of thing, you might want to tap into the idea of finding out what their goals are. What is the purpose for them working at your company?
Maybe you sit down and you just simply ask your key players these simple questions:
- Why are you here?
- What do they see as a future for yourself and, how does that directly connect with the goals that you have going forward?
I think just by asking these questions and starting that conversation, you take people from a paycheck mentality to a purpose mentality. A paycheck mentality is what most of us are dealing with in the work world today with zero unemployment.
You take your employees from just receiving a paycheck to realizing that there’s a purpose for their work — past just what’s happening there at the job 40, 50, 60 hours a week. They realize that there is a purpose not only for their life, their family, their goals, their dreams, but also for the company going forward.
I think you might find this a really collaborative, stimulating conversation. We facilitate these type of conversations all the time. If you’d like us to come in and facilitate a 60 minute conversation around this paycheck to purpose idea using The Dream Employee with Confidence Coach, we’d love to talk to you.
