Respect Your Employees 2

2. Make it a safe place to share concerns. Employees should feel like their one-on-one are a safe place to speak freely.

In my role as a leader at Porch.com, oftentimes I ask my people, “What keeps you up at night”? Sometimes just talking makes a positive impact towards better engagement.
