Chris Hunsiker, Ford Motor Company – “Moving from Passive to Active Engagement”
Over the last 10 years billions of dollars have been spent on researching and improving employee engagement within organizations, and during those 10 years employee engagement got worse.
The biggest aspect of employee engagement is to ask your employees “active” questions instead of “passive” questions.
The “Big 6” Engagement questions are:
Did I do my best to set clear goals today?
Did I do my best to make progress towards my goals today?
Did I do my best to find meaning today?
Did I do my best to be happy today?
Did I do my best to build positive relationships today?
Did I do my best to be fully engaged today?
It’s more typical than not for people to have great self-control but no self-discipline, or vice-versa.
The definition of “self-control” is the ability to do things that are hard to do (ex: exercising).
The definition of “self-discipline” is the ability to keep yourself from doing hard things (ex: cursing)

President Pat was quick to point out that his guest and wife, Terri Collins, was more than his better half, in fact stating she’s “80% to 90% better than me.”
