I got to hang out with Ken, Austin Powers, Goose and the Pink Ladies all in one night! 🎉
I love my job.
Yesterday, I got to spend time with the amazing humans of United Benefit Advisors® (UBA) for their annual fall conference.
I started my career in employee benefits 21 years ago as an intern, so it was great to be back!
I delivered a keynote about employee engagement and what employees really want from work:
➡️ Cause - they want to feel relevant and be able to answer the question, “Who am I helping and why does it matter?”
➡️ Community - they want to feel seen, included, cared about, and appreciated- not ignored and invisible
➡️ Career - they want opportunities to grow, learn, and contribute, using their strengths consistently to make a difference
ALL of us, regardless of generation, want to feel like who we are and what we do matters.
We shared stories, connected with each other, laughed, hugged it out, and tapped into everyone’s collective wisdom and ideas.
Here’s what we discovered👇
It’s not the grand gestures that engage people and make them feel like they matter.
It’s the accumulation of little meaningful moments consistently over time.
Last night, we hung out for a costume party with dueling pianos and movie soundtrack singalongs 🎹
What a FUN, life-giving day!
Want to show someone they matter today?
🙏 Send a text, email, or note to let them know something specific about them that you appreciate!
