She pulled the conference staffers aside and asked if they were doing this as an extra level of security or if it was one of their daily tasks. The conference representative replied they had not seen any warning signs of danger, but felt comfortable that this was the proper way to do things.</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">Giulioni pondered the thought of employees going above and beyond. ; She thought that in our technological age it was fascinating to see this method. </span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">&#8220;We find ourselves in an era when management and leadership science can offer nearly unlimited performance metrics to monitor, processes to follow, and productivity levers to pull &#8212; all in support of organizational results,&#8221; she said. &#8220;But, perhaps it&#8217;s time for leaders to return to the basics and ask themselves, &#8216;How much ownership do my employees really feel for their work?&#8217;&#8221;</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">She went on to say that employees who feel a sense of ownership will tap into a level of empowerment that will have them perform better at their jobs.
