In today's ever-changing economic and corporate landscape, the quest to understand and enhance employee engagement remains a pain point for managers and organisations.

In the latest edition of our bite-sized conversations on Realising Potential, Fiona Brookwell and Michael Jones discuss the critical factors at play in an organisation that can negatively impact employee engagement and retention.

Fiona and Michael share their insights into the four areas of disconnect that typically cause individuals to either leave their organisation or become disengaged, which in turn could lead to them being dismissed.

The conversation explores scenarios where employees may experience one or multiple sources of dissatisfaction, making it increasingly difficult to remain in their current roles. It highlights the importance of organisational values, and workplace dynamics and relationships.

Last minute or in good time? Fiona Brookwell and Michael Jones chat about why some individuals perceive and interact with time and deadlines differently.

Some people find deadlines exciting and energising, others dread them. Some individuals thrive in last-minute, fast-paced environments. Others need calmer surroundings to flourish. They like to plan ahead and allocate time accordingly. Why is that? 

What is your superpower when it comes to time management? Why is finding an environment that aligns with those strengths important?

Why do some people embrace risk while others do everything to avoid it?

Some people are naturally orientated to come into the world to find different ways of doing things. For some people, the thought of making any decision without extensive research and double-checking their findings is inconceivable. Others are comfortable with taking calculated risks. 

Join Fiona Brookwell and Michael Jones as share their experiences and stories around people's different responses to 'risk'.

What is your own relationship with risk? Do you know if your employees are eager to challenge the status quo or happier to follow the rule book?

Gain some valuable insights into the intricacies around giving and receiving feedback. Why is it complex for some and straight-forward for others? 

As we enter the annual review season, a time when managers and team members convene to assess the past year's performance, set goals for the upcoming year, and strategise for improvement, the significance of constructive feedback becomes apparent. It provides managers with a platform to evaluate an employee's contributions, recognise achievements, pinpoint areas for development, and formulate action plans.

Hosts Fiona Brookwell and Michael Jones explore the contrasting attitudes people have towards feedback. Why do some individuals approach it with apprehension, while others welcome it with open arms?

Join the conversations at Realising Potential to uncover the reasons behind these perspectives. Discover why a perfectionist may perceive feedback differently to someone who is more lenient with rules. It might help your annual review run even smoother!

At the heart of Realising Potential, are Fiona Brookwell and Michael Jones who have been working together for many years as Leadership Consultants. 

While working with some great client organisations, they have been fortunate to have collected a wealth of stories based on why people behave as they do.  Clients often find that these stories help them understanding what makes people tick.
