Employers have a unique opportunity—and responsibility—to encourage and support our employees in participating in the democratic process. Allowing employees time off to vote is not just about legal compliance; it's a profound way to demonstrate a commitment to civic responsibility and community engagement. What’s a great way to support your team? Voting time off: 1️⃣ Offer paid time off or flexible hours on Election Day. 2️⃣ Share information about early voting and mail-in ballot options. 3️⃣ Encourage employees to plan their voting schedule in advance. Try it out this Election Day!

Perception is a crazy thing. Sometimes what you see as lack of initiative could be hesitance to step on toes. It could be a sensitive nature that errs on the side of being polite. The first things you learn in school is to get in line, don't touch other kid's stuff, don't yell out your answer, and work on the assignment in front of you. Then one day we go to a grown up job and the opposite things are required of us without much training to prepare. Some people need to see a little more vision and instruction. And then some people might feel they're being impolite to speak up before they're called on. That's why you have to tell them exactly what you want and where you need them to shine. Sure, we like that initiative, too! But giving people some instructions isn't a failing, eiter. And do we have a thing for that? Of course we do! https://buff.ly/481r2ig #rolerealignment #employeeexperience #employeedevelopment

👉 Wait, who is doing this project? You? Me? 👈 Caught in a management stand-off? Or maybe not aware you are in one? Yeah, it's pretty common in the workplace. While you might think that your team members know exactly what's expected of them or what they should be doing next, research shows that communication is usually lacking. Depending on the study, the percentage of workers who say they understand their responsibilities is usually around 50%. If you're a manager, there is something you can do to cut the confusion: tell them what to do. Crazy, we know! But we promise it can pay off.
