Synopsis

Your team experiences your leadership every day. What are they learning from it?

A canceled one-on-one. A good idea met with silence. A deadline nobody explains. A leader who asks for feedback and argues with the answer. Small moments teach people how much of themselves to bring to work—and how much to hold back.

In The Engaged Leader, Second Edition, Ken Konet shows how to build the everyday conditions that help people contribute, speak up, and take ownership. Drawing on his work in corporate instructional design, he approaches engagement as something leaders can deliberately design through the way they communicate, coach, recognize effort, and follow through.

Across sixteen focused chapters, you will learn how to:

• Build trust through clear expectations and consistent action.
• Listen for the problems that status reports never reveal.
• Combine kindness with accountability when standards slip.
• Recognize specific contributions and explain why they matter.
• Coach through realistic practice and timely feedback.
• Invite honest input and show people what changed because of it.
• Develop team ownership so every decision does not land on your desk.

A practical ninety-day plan helps you begin: listen and map what your team needs, build one useful system, then measure and adjust. Along the way, candid stories, pointed humor, and concrete examples make the ideas easier to bring into your next meeting.

Written for new and experienced managers, supervisors, and team leaders, this is a field manual for leading when calendars are full, resources are tight, and good intentions need a place in the schedule.

This revised second edition reorganizes the original book around a clearer design-based approach and includes a ninety-day implementation plan and research references. It stands on its own and shares core subject matter with the first edition; you do not need to read or purchase both.

Build leadership practices your team can count on—even during your hardest week.
