There is a tremendous opportunity for managers and supervisors to set themselves and their companies apart from their competition.  The statistics according to Shubhra Ramchandani of TNS Global Market Research, a leading custom market information research company are as follows:

• 40% of workers feel disconnected from their employers
• Two out of every three workers do not identify with or feel motivated to drive their employer’s business goals and objectives
• 25% of employees are just “showing up to collect a paycheck”

So what does it take for a manager to be “perceived as a strong leader,” and to motivate employees, clients and associates to happily and willingly follow their ideas?
