pace with his friends,
perhaps it is because he
hears a different

14. “A drop of honey catches
more flies than a gallon of
gall. So it is with men as
well. If you would win a
man to your cause, first convince
him that you are his friend. It is
a drop of honey that catches his
heart, which, say what he will, is
the highroad to his reason.”
Abraham Lincoln

Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood,
And I –

And that has made all the difference.

29. What attracts the best employees to a
company, and what makes them stay?
These are two of the oldest questions in the
business world, and maybe the most important.
P8C205 ©Graphics by MACCS Consulting Service, 2002
30. Now the Gallup Organization of Princeton, NJ, claims to
have answered this, once and for all. Marcus
Buckingham, a senior consultant at the Gallup School of
Management, explains that the opinion-polling company
has identified 12 questions that appear to measure the
“core elements” needed to attract and keep the most
loyal, productive and talented employees.
Gallup culled these dozen from the multitude of
questions it has asked in interviews with more than one
million employees during the past 25 years. Using factor
analysis, regression analysis, concurrent validity
studies, focus groups and follow-up interviews, Gallup
statisticians isolated the questions that most accurately
measure the likelihood that a given workplace will
attract and keep the best people.
The exact wording of the questions is important.

31. 1. Do I know what
is expected of
me at work?

equipment I
need to do my

right?

have the
opportunity
to do what I
do best every
day?

received
recognition or
praise for

33. 5. Does my super-
visor, or some-
one at work,
seem to care
about me as a
person?
6. Is there someone
at work who
encourages my
development?

7. At work, do my
opinions seem to

37. It isn’t just that employees who answered yes
to these questions are more likely to stay
with the company; the beauty of these 12,
according to Gallup, is that they address
factors that are particularly important to the
most talented and productive employees.

38. Tips for High Performance
Pay attention to the “middle stars.”
Avoid the trap of focusing only on the
“super stars” (those with exceptional
performance) and the “fallen stars”
(those with significant performance
problems). Most people shine
somewhere in the middle.
39. Tips for High Performance
Get enthused about others who are
enthusiastic – its contagious and can
snowball quickly. Recognize and reward
those who help contribute to a culture of
contagious enthusiasm.
40. Tips for High Performance
Pay attention when someone has a performance
problem. Unaddressed deficiencies can have a
negative effect on every member of your team.
By dealing with performance issues as early as
possible, you can prevent them from growing
more serious…and more distasteful for both you
and the individual to face.
41. Personal Conditions
Conducive To
Growth
1. People grow when there is a felt need.
2. People grow when they are encouraged by
someone they respect.
3. People grow when their plans move from
general goals to specific actions.
4. People grow as they move from a condition of
lower to higher self-esteem.
5. People grow as they move from external to
internal commitment.

Editor's Notes Leadership is social influence. Leadership is about Organizational Success: Page 61 . Figure 5-1 on pg. 61 The leader has to care about the work and care about people. Workforce morale: page 169 . Have someone read what Napoleon said at the top of 169. Think of Hell as Pain and Torture. If you have less than 20% in play – that will show up in you as a lack of satisfaction. More than 20% in Hell is a problem. Your job life can make you sick. Flow Chart pg. 171 Discuss with a study buddy where you’re at currently regarding the concept of flow. You are the main reason why your employees stay or go.
