5 Ways To Show Your Employees That You Care

I truly believe in caring for employees. Not only does it encourage employee engagement, but throughout the years, I’ve seen that happy employees are more productive.

If you know me at all, you know I talk about “my people” a lot.

And while I’m far from perfect, I try to consistently let my team know, through both my words and actions, just how much I value them — not only as employees but also as the amazing, resourceful and kind-hearted people they are.

One of my all-time favorite quotes comes from Theodore Roosevelt, who said, “Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care.”

And if there is one motto that I live and breathe by, it’s that.

If your team doesn’t think that you care about them, then all of your other efforts to develop camaraderie and cohesiveness will inevitably fall short. Caring for employees is integral to employee engagement. Happy employees are more productive.
