081 How to recover our staff

With all the expectations placed on providing excellent service to clients how can we truly expect staff to value others when they don't feel valued themselves?

In this episode I explore some of the key messages from the wide-ranging Gallup organisation's strengths research. The focus is on why we should pay more attention to developing individual potentials, and less to fixing weaknesses. I also explore those feelings we experience when we are engaged in activity that is most likely connected to our real strengths and talents.
