The employee “check in” is an informal, and probably one of the most powerful ways, to help your employees feel empowered and support their career and life goals. It also gives you a good sense for the culture of the company.
There are some simple, open ended, questions that can help the leader truly understand each employee as well as the culture of the organization.
1. What are you focused on today? A simple but powerful way to ensure your employees are properly focused on things that matter most
2. What are you most proud of? This is a work/life balance question and can truly help an employee be introspective about what’s important to them
3. What do you wish you can be better at? This helps an employee bring to life work areas where they believe they can improve and bring the most value
We often forget the importance of the employee. For those leaders managing an organization or trying to build a multi level succession plan, this is one way to truly understand the pulse of the employee and of the organization.
