Employee Engagement - Uncommon Sense in Local Business
Show Notes

Mental Health Instructor Deanna Blair and Relationship Expert Paul Russo discuss employee engagement on Uncommon Sense in Local Business Podcast. Small business is people-focused. Now that employees are coming back to work, are you noticing any changes?

It's possible that shifts in their lives have changed their focus. They may have developed strengths you were unaware of, or become disillusioned with their current position. Managing these areas can be tricky - there's still a lot to do!

Consider playing to the strengths of the employee. Is there an additional focus they could take on that they'd find encouraging?

"Employees are your biggest billboard." ~ Paul Russo

One Eyed Joe Brands is an example of a company that has to market more creatively. One Eyed Joe's BBQ Sauce and Salsa is normally found at state fairs and events across the nation and local restaurants. Now they benefit from selling online andsponsoring programs on the OBBM Network. That changes the dynamic for employees, as sometimes they are limiting positions - but also refocusing their efforts to shipping and online event registration.
