    Ep 33: Unleash The Power Of Your People With Recognition And Feedback With Rob Catalano

    Rob Catalano, Chief Engagement Officer at WorkTango, shares insights on how leaders can enhance employee engagement through simple, regular micro-doses of recognition and feedback. He discusses his career transition from what he thought was his dream job (customer experience marketing) and how that translated into his actual dream job (engaging employee experiences). Why is it that so many employees at recognizable brands are miserable? He recognized the need for leaders to create environments where employees can be raving fans just as we seek our customers to be raving fans. Rob offers practical tips for how to recognize employee contributions and deliver constructive feedback in a way that unleashes talent and uplifts workplace culture for overall organizational success. The discussion also highlights generational differences in feedback expectations, particularly with Gen Z employees. Catalano advocates for a culture of curiosity over blame, encouraging leaders to engage in meaningful conversations that foster growth and development.

Recognition is best when it is SMT - Specific, Meaningful, and Timely. Feedback doesn't have to take a lot of time, but you must make some time for it. Feedback is better in smaller, more frequent micro-doses. Focus recognition more on employee's contributions and competencies and less on longevity.

    Ep 32: Unleashing Inspired Intrapreneurs To Scale Blue Collar Businesses With Ken Rusk

    Ken Rusk is author of the WSJ bestselling book "Blue-Collar Cash" and highly successful entrepreneur in the trades of Rusk Industries. His insights have been featured in Forbes, USA Today, Fox Business, and more. In this episode, Ken dives deep into three limiting beliefs about leading and scaling successful blue collar businesses. The first is the preposterous myth that a blue collar career in the trades is not a viable path to fulfillment and impact. We quickly dispatch that nonsense and celebrate how that trend is changing. The second limit is for those that choose the blue collar path, they can let their identity be narrowly defined by their skill or craft. This also afflicts white collar workers promoted to leadership levels who often feel it is only up to them to get a certain job done. This stunts their growth, locking them in as a solopreneur. Ken reframes this identity to honor your skill while also unlocking the power of scale. He also compares the satisfaction of a job well done versus the joy of helping others do a job well. The third limit is the belief that we can't fine motivated employees. Here Ken reframes from motivating to inspiring. He shares his specific methods for interviewing, clarifying, and reinforcing inspired intrapreneurs, who can take your business to levels beyond your imagination. He has a great take on renaming "goals" to "timed paths to success." For an empowering employee development opportunity, check out his impactful course, "The Path to a Successful Life" at www.KenRusk.com. These 8 short lessons with some guided reflection is a powerful way to help your employees as individuals or as a book club team effort to define their individual life focus that puts them in total control of achieving it. Additional Resources Ken is the President of Rusk Industries. Current book. "Blue-Collar Cash." Current digital short course. "The Path to a Successful Life."
