Many companies are focusing on bringing employees back to the office as a way to strengthen workplace connections. But new research by the NeuroLeadership Institute (NLI) reveals that connection at work is much more than just social interaction. It has identified four interrelated elements: connections with colleagues, leaders, employers, and roles (CLEAR). Understanding and fostering these different types of connections can help organizations build a more engaged and productive workforce. Leaders need to move beyond a one-size-fits-all approach and consider how to their organizations can better meet the unique connection needs of each employee. #Leadership #EmployeeEngagement #WorkplaceCulture #CLEAR https://lnkd.in/g64Zxcw9

#RTO Companies that demand employees exclusively return to the office have it wrong. Such mandates don’t strengthen connections with employees, they risk weaken them. The “one size fits all” approach won’t work if companies value their employees and understand that churn is costly to productivity and brand. HBR highlights employee’s need for connection with colleagues, leaders, company & role. Great companies understand these needs and balance their approach. I've led high performing distributed teams for more than 20 years, and even those teams need time to connect in person, once in awhile. What they don't need is a forced march back to a brick-and-mortar building.

Feeling connected to your company doesn't just mean liking your co-workers... In fact, new research has found that connection in the workplace is made up of four "interrelated and essential elements": employee connections with their team, leader, employer, and role. The more we as leaders understand these nuances, the better we can build cultures that support connection in all these areas. And that to me sounds like building a company people want to work for. #ServantLeadership #EmployeeEngagement #CompanyCulture
