When he went to the Chief Chef to get his questionnaire filled, he found the Chef extremely occupied in his work. The Chef in a polite manner told him to sit and wait for a few minutes. He continued his work with lazor sharp focus. My friend witnessed the entire dish getting processed from it's raw state into a visually appealing appetizing dish. The smell of the alluring aroma filled the air, now teasing his nostrils. Little did he realize that it was beyond an hour since he was seated there.
Suddenly, good sense prevailed and he reminded the Chef to fill the questionnaire. The Chef offered him a few cookies saying that he must be hungry and left to wash his hand.
After he came back, he keenly went through the first few questions and told my friend to fill it himself.
My friend was puzzled.Well!!!! It was justified as he had wasted over an hour and now did not want to fill the questionnaire.
He was on the verge of getting riled up but then the Chef told him something that he still profoundly remembers even today.
The Chef said ' You have witnessed me working on this simple dish for over an hour. This is the amount of time, passion and energy I dedicate to a single customer. Now you have to decide my 'employee engagement' score and not me.'
Need I say more!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent story, and excellent post. Good managers who are truly involved with their employees should be able to see just how engaged their employees are. Of course, good managers are already creating a work environment in which their employees WANT to engage.
