All but 2 players would,

in some way, be competing against

their own team members,

rather than the opponent

Only 2 would care

Only 4 of 11 know which goal

is theirs

Only 2 know what position they

play, and know exactly what they are supposed to

do

The Gallup Management Journal's http://gmj.gallup.com/ semi-annual Employee Engagement Index puts the current percentage of employees who are actively disengaged at 17%. That’s about 22.5 million US workers. Gallup defines actively disengaged as employees who are not just unhappy in their work, but who are busy acting out their unhappiness by undermining what their engaged co-workers accomplish. Each one of these angry and alienated workers is causing their employers roughly $13k in yearly productivity losses on average. Think this is bad? It gets worse.

A majority of workers (54%) falls into the "not engaged" category. Not engaged workers are defined as “checked out,” putting in time but not energy or passion into their work. Look around you. Chances are every other person you see is on autopilot. Only 29% of workers are estimated by Gallup to be truly "engaged" – i.e., employees that “work with passion and who feel a profound connection to their company.”

These first two numbers add up to a whopping seventy-one percent of workers that are in cruise control and active sabotage mode.

Imagine on your crew team if:

1. Do you know what is expected of you at work? 2. Do you have the materials and equipment you need to do your work right? 3. At work, do you have the opportunity to do what you do best every day? 4. In the last seven days, have you received recognition or praise for doing good

work? 5. Does your supervisor, or someone at work, seem to care about you as a person? 6. Is there someone at work who encourages your development? 7. At work, do your opinions seem to count? 8. Does the mission/purpose of your company make you feel your job is important? 9. Are your associates (fellow employees) committed to doing quality work? 10. Do you have a best friend at work? 11. In the last six months, has someone at work talked to you about your progress? 12. In the last year, have you had opportunities at work to learn and grow?

The first is anonymity, which is the feeling that employees get when they realize that their manager has little interest in them a human being and that they know

little about their lives, their aspirations and their interests.

The second sign is irrelevance, which takes root when employees cannot see how their job makes a difference in the lives of others. Every employee needs to know that the work they do impacts someone's life – a customer, a co-worker,

even a supervisor – in one way or another.

The third sign is something I call immeasurement,. It's the inability of employees to assess for themselves their contribution or success. Employees

who have no means of measuring how well they are doing on a given day or in a given week, must rely on the subjective opinions of others, usually their

managers, to gauge their progress or contribution.

The greatest organizations are ones that only employ self-motivated people that can fully embrace the Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal (BHAG).

Tribal Leadership is not about changing ideas or gaining knowledge; it is about changing language and relationships. It’s not about intellectualizations; it’s about actions.

A culture in which committable core values form the basis for hiring and firing – and real connections between people are promoted – creates an environment where creative ideas and productivity thrive.

Build a cohesive leadership team, create clarity, over-communicate clarity, and reinforce clarity.
