- "Engagement" is the willingness to invest oneself and expand one's discretionary effort to help the employer/organization succeed.

- Coaching conversations enable engagement:

- "Coaching behavior" vs. "Link to engagement"
"active listening, seeking first to understand" vs. "helps people feel valued, promotes
openness and trust"

"active inquiry (use of open question), facilitating the thoughts of another"
vs. "challenges people to think and express themselves more clearly"

"encourage someone to think and act for themselves" vs. "affirms responsibility, ownership and empowerment, accelerates learning and develpment


That's all for today. See you tomorrow!
