You’re a consultant with a long to-do list. How do you decide which tasks to delegate?
The first thing I do is a root cause/point of origin assessment. This requires going back to the stakeholder(s) to get their current perspective on the urgency of an ask. More times than not, it is not even remotely as urgent as I may have been led to believe by others who are not the primary stakeholders, or the priority has simply shifted. This approach typically reduces my task list by 50% or more, allowing me to review and prioritize a much more refined list. This reduces noise and overwhelm for me and the team, and provides the opportunity to reset expectations with the stakeholders.

How can you identify the causes of low employee engagement in your company?
Talk to people, at every level. As a leader, one of the first things I do is establish relationships wide and deep across the organization. I find people whose opinions I trust and I develop a strong two-way relationship. This allows the ability (even in larger organizations) to keep a finger on the pulse of engagement and to start to identify root cause issues, which most people will not voice openly. Many people don't trust engagement surveys and are therefore not honest in their responses, particularly if they are on a smaller team where their voice might be 'identified'. Developing and nurturing these relationships often means people come to me when they start seeing issues as they know I am in a position where I can bring them forward.
