Be the energy and go where the energy is.

I tweeted this: Go where the energy is. That's my motto.

And fellow blogger, coach, twittering pal Rosa Say responded with a link to this amazing article all about how managers can create energy at work and why they ought to called, 3 Ways Managers Create Energetic Workplaces. I love this article, please check it out and then give her suggestions a try. Here is a snippet:

If you are a manager (and all business owners are managers too) assume the role of energy creator in your company. Change the title on your business card to Energy Creator; come on, I dare you. Whatever you have there now is probably more normal, and normal is boring.

Your greatest resource in any workplace is NOT time (or financing), it IS the energy required to make the time and other resources you have available count for something worthwhile and meaningful.

Lisa,
I too was very impressed with this article and was working on a blog post about it for early next week. When I was you post I knew I was on the right track, that Rosa is on the right track, and you are on the right track.

We could all benefit by tracking and creating more energy. I love the work from Jane Dutton another others out of the Ross School on energy and workplaces.

David - I agree. Energy affects so much about our work and our ability to inspire and ignite a team.
