Our employees take much more than guidance and instructions from us; they also perceive and get affected by our energy. Whether we are conscious about it or not, our interactions with our teams can be either energy draining or energizing. However, we can have a couple of things in mind to ensure we don't drain our team's energy -- and we go through them with Travis Hoopes, today's show co-host. 

In this episode, we unravel some of the reasons why people might feel their energy drain under our leadership, and we come up with a few ideas of how to reverse that situation. We analyze our behavior in past experiences where we weren't energizing our teams, and we look at what we've learned from them. We talk about the importance of setting clear expectations, communicating effectively, showing mutual interest with our teams, and much more.
