The Real Leadership Opportunity of 2025

Employee engagement isn’t just slipping, it’s slipping through our fingers.

According to Gallup’s latest workplace research, nearly 6 in 10 employees are quietly disengaged. Not loud, not dramatic—just slowly fading into autopilot mode.

Let’s pause here.

What would your organization look like if even half of those employees reignited their spark? What if your team didn’t need to be pushed—but pulled, inspired, and reengaged?

We’ve Been Asking the Wrong Question

For years, leaders have asked: “How do we engage employees?”

But here’s the better question: “How do we reengage people who once believed they mattered—and now aren’t so sure?”

Because the truth is, most of your people didn’t start disengaged.
They started with hope. With drive. With ideas.

And then…
Unseen.
Unheard.
Unmeasured until the annual survey rolled around.

What if You Could See the Signals in Real Time?

This is where the game changes.

One of the most powerful shifts I’ve seen in organizations is when they move from annual engagement evaluation to real-time influence activation using tools like Positive Impact Mapping®.

This isn’t about scores or satisfaction ratings. It’s about uncovering the hidden influencers on your team. The trusted go-to people. The blockers. The energizers.
It’s data with a heartbeat. Insight that sparks immediate action.

Don’t Just Engage—Reengage

Engagement strategies often miss the human behind the metrics.

A reengagement strategy? That’s a whole different story. It says:

• We see you.
• You’re not just a role—you’re a whole person.
• Your strengths, values, and voice still matter here.

Leadership isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about creating the conditions where people can show up as their most awesome selves.

And that starts with a culture that doesn’t wait for disengagement to fix things, but actively nurtures connection, recognition, and purpose every single day.

What Happens When You Reengage the Awesome Within?

You unlock discretionary effort.
You boost innovation.
You create workplaces where people don’t just stay—they shine.

And it starts not with a program, but with a perspective shift.

Ready to Reengage?

Whether you lead a team of five or five thousand, the most powerful reengagement starts with you.

So here’s the challenge:

What’s one action you’ll take this week to reengage someone’s belief in their value?

You don’t need permission.
You just need the intention.

The opportunity is here.
The time is now.
Let’s activate the awesome—together.
