And, of course, if any more of these points ring true, organisations can expect engagement to plummet. Which demonstrates the critical importance of:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-engaging-line-managers\"><strong>Engaging line managers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Engaging line managers is no different to engaging employees. What we\u2019ve seen the most success with is finding out how line managers feel and why. What matters to them? What do they need? What makes them feel good or bad about their job and their organisation? This data is best collected through our emotion-centred <a href=\"https:\/\/thirteencreative.co.uk\/inpulse21\/platform\/surveys\/employee-engagement\">engagement surveys<\/a>, and it\u2019s this data that will guide decision-making, drive change and improve engagement amongst line managers. But remember, this is an exercise that needs to be conducted regularly to be highly effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Educating line managers on employee engagement and how to engage others<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many line managers are put off by the term \u2018engagement\u2019 as they see it as an HR task. Instead of speaking of \u2018engagement\u2019 it\u2019s worth getting your line managers to think: \u2018how do I create an environment where people wake up in the morning and want to come to work?\u2019 A thought like this needs little explaining &#8211; immediately they\u2019ll grasp the benefits of leading in this way. It will also pique their interest about how their people feel about their job and why, and what they can do to improve their experience for the success of the team. Teaching them how to engage their people should also be easier once you\u2019ve discussed the importance of engagement. Have you read our <a href=\"https:\/\/thirteencreative.co.uk\/inpulse21\/5-leadership-secrets-guaranteed-to-enhance-engagement\">tips on how to engage employees<\/a> and listened to our <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/episode\/1IY8iZGNospywgQj5Hbcsa\">podcast<\/a> episode dedicated to this? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Involving line managers in the design of engagement strategies and preparing them for execution&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Involving line managers in the design and implementation of engagement strategies is invaluable. For engagement to be successful, key stakeholders need to be involved. But what will ultimately determine the outcome is how well-prepared line managers are to execute such strategies. Education is vitally important and so is support from top management. The best way to go about preparing line managers is to educate them on the tools (e.g surveys) that\u2019ll be used to measure engagement and make decisions, communicate with them regularly and measure their engagement regularly too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInvesting in external training can be very valuable, but things like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.managersresourcehandbook.com\/managing-other-managers\/\">internal mentoring<\/a> are also useful,\u201d says Corina Forman, HR director at courier APC Overnight. \u201cYou need more experiential training,\u201d agrees Paul Sparrow, Emeritus professor of international HRM at Lancaster University Management School,&nbsp; adding this will be critical in managers finding their own style: \u201cYou can show people how to find their own way. It often comes down to coaching. The motivational side depends on your personality; some people are good at it naturally. But there are people who might not be the most personally engaging, but are brilliant at getting their teams to know what\u2019s important.\u201d Patel adds that organisations should think more open-mindedly about the classic leadership workshop: \u201cCompanies think of leadership training very much as \u2018you go only if you want to be a leader\u2019. But every line manager is a leader.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Did you know, much of your success with engagement depends on your line managers? \u201cWithout them
