WAYS TO ENGAGE STAFF AND PLEASE THE CUSTOMER
Let go of any negative opinions you may have about your employees. Approach each of them as a source of unique knowledge with something valuable to contribute to the company.
Make sure employees have everything they need to do their jobs. Just as marketplace and customer needs change often, so do your employees' needs.
Clearly communicate what's expected of employees - what the organization values and vision are, and how the organization defines success. Employees can't perform well or be productive if they don't know exactly what it is they're there to do, and the part they play in the overall success of the company.
WAYS TO ENGAGE STAFF AND PLEASE THE CUSTOMER
Get to know your employees - especially their goals, their stressors, what excites them and how they each define success. Show an interest in their well-being and do what it takes to enable them to feel more fulfilled.
Make sure they are trained and retrained in problem solvingand conflict resolution skills. These critical skills will help them interact better with you, their co-workers, customers and suppliers.
Constantly ask how you are doing in your employees' eyes. It can be difficult for managers to request employee feedback, and it can be equally if not more challenging for an employee to give the person who evaluates them an honest response..
