  • Celebrate and honor their accomplishments.  Even the small things.
  • Encourage them regularly.
  • Model the values you expect them to exhibit.
  • Repeat the mission of the organization often so they know it well.
  • Develop a relationship with them and know about their life outside work.
  • Help them identify and develop their strengths.
  • Train and equip them for the current job while also helping them grow into larger more challenging roles.
  • Address issues and shortcomings with them as they happen.  Don’t ignore needed areas of growth.
  • Ask for, listen to, and value their opinion.
  • Empower them to do their job and release them to do it.
  • Pray for them.
