Introduction to Ingaging Leadership: Revolutionizing How We Lead

By Evan Hackel

In today’s fast-paced business environment, traditional leadership methods often fall short. However, during my decades of leading many companies to increased profitability and success, I have found a better way that works.

After trying, fine-tuning, and using my new approach, which I call Ingaged Leadership, I have written Ingaging Leadership: The Ultimate Edition in which I explain my new leadership philosophy and practice. Ingaging Leadership: The Ultimate Edition introduces a transformative approach that intimately involves employees in decision-making processes, leading to higher engagement, productivity, employee retention, and satisfaction.

What is Ingaging Leadership?

Ingaging Leadership goes beyond merely engaging employees. It is a process of getting employees to involve their hearts and emotions in what your company does. Some of the key practices of Ingaged Leadership include:

  • Ingaged Listening, which is practiced when company leaders consistently listen for what employees are saying that is right, not what is And when a leader hears great “kernels of wisdom” in what people have said, the next step is to empower those workers to develop and implement them.
  • Curiosity, in which everyone in an organization is rewarded for seeking and introducing innovative ideas and approaches.
  • Intellectual modesty, in which leaders are always ready to accept that the ideas that employees want to implement are often better than their own.
  • The development of individual career plans for all employees that enable them to envision and pursue individual success in the organization.
  • Recognition and rewards that consistently show employees how much their ideas and efforts are recognized and appreciated.
  • The company’s eagerness to recruit and hire employees with strong individual strengths and skills, not only employees who are “just like” company leaders.
  • Excellent, ongoing training that develops everyone in an organization and empowers employees to grow and advance.
  • An emphasis that employees should have rewarding and positive personal lives, not only be productive employees.

 

 

Ingaged Leadership emphasizes the importance of involving team members at all levels, fostering a sense of ownership and commitment to the organization’s success. This approach not only boosts morale but also drives innovation and efficiency.

The Benefits of Ingagement:

  • Increased Productivity – When employees are involved in decision-making, they are more invested in the outcomes, leading to higher productivity.
  • Better Teamwork – Ingaged teams collaborate more effectively, leveraging diverse perspectives to achieve common goals.
  • Higher Retention Rates – Employees who feel valued and involved are less likely to leave, reducing turnover and associated costs.
