Get the work results that you want.

1. Get Real, Get Results
The
Shocking
Truth
• 53%
of
employees
do
not
trust
upper
management
• Less
than
1/3
of
employees
are
engaged
at
work
• Disengaged
employees
cost
US
companies
up
to
$350
BILLION
annually
• Three
signs
of
a
miserable
job:
you
are
anonymous,
irrelevant,
and
immeasurable
Not
creating
the
work
results
you
want?
You
might
explore
how
“real”
your
relationships
are.
If
familiarity
breeds
likeness,
how
much
do
you
know
about
your
associates?
What
do
your
team
mates
know
about
you,
what
makes
you
happy,
how
to
collaborate
with
you
most
effectively?
So
how
do
YOU
change
this?
One
way
is
by
connecting
with
your
employees
through
Authentic
Encounters.
(AIM
Leadership
created
Authentic
Encounters
to
help
colleagues
create
more
genuine
connections
in
the
workplace.)
An
Authentic
Encounter
is
characterized
as:
two
or
more
individuals
speaking
candidly
with
one
another,
a
genuine
interest
and
curiosity
to
learn
more
about
each
other,
a
commitment
to
be
present,
demonstrate
courage,
and
cone
out
from
behind
facades
so
as
to
share
one’s
true
self.
(non-­‐sentence/
can
we
trade
mark
this?)
So
how
do
YOU
incorporate
Authentic
Encounters
in
your
professional
and
personal
life?
Start
by
focusing,
engaging,
and
celebrating.
That
is,
focus
your
full
attention
on
individual.
You
will
be
surprised
at
how
much
more
information
you
obtain
in
conversations
when
you
eliminate
all
the
unrelated
thoughts
in
your
mind.
Become
engaged
in
conversations,
ask
questions,
and
take
an
interest
in
what
people
tell
you.
Finally,
celebrate
successes
in
your
conversations.
Employees
will
become
more
productive
at
work
if
they
know
their
accomplishments
will
be
recognize
Authentic
Encounters
will
help
you
add
value
to
yourself
and
others
by
uncovering
wealth
of
experience
and
knowledge
about
the
people
around
you.
The
more
you
know
about
your
colleagues,
the
more
you
can
set
them
up
to
be
successful.
AND
vice
versa.
Investing
time
to
deepen
your
relationships
is
a
commitment
that
necessitates
self
awareness
and
discipline
to
maximize
the
rewards.
However,
the
most
important
part
of
Authentic
Encounters
is
maintaining
momentum.
By
putting
in
the
time,
you
can
enjoy
a
relationship
that
is
mutually
beneficial
for
life.
