What's Your Loyalty Quotient?

What's Your Loyalty Quotient?

If you’re the boss, you should be concerned with your Loyalty Quotient (LQ). Your LQ reflects how dedicated your staff is to you. Since most people don’t leave companies, they leave bosses; your LQ will make the difference between having a motivated and dedicated staff and having a group of employees who keep their resumes dusted off at all times. Your goal should be to build solid relationships with your employees based on mutual trust and respect. They don’t have to love you, but they do need to feel like you’re fair, competent and supportive.

The higher your LQ, the more likely you will have high achievers who are willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. On the other hand, if you have a low LQ, your employees may do the minimum to get by, exhibit low morale or demonstrate mediocre job performance.

So what’s your LQ? Take this quick LQ Quiz to see where you need to improve. Answer yes or no to the following statements:

1. I know ALL the names of my staff’s immediate families.
2. My employees look for and volunteer for additional responsibilities on a regular basis.
3. Besides money, I know what motivates each of my employees the most.
4. I know the short and long-term career aspirations of each of my staff.
5. I recognize specific accomplishments of my staff every week.

If you answered “no” to any of the above statements, your LQ is not as high as it could be. Take specific steps to address immediately.

About The Author


Will Turner
(Visit Will's Website) As President of Dancing Elephants Achievement Group, Will feels he has the best job in the galaxy. He loves working with salespeople and entrepreneurs to "unblock" themselves and "unlock" their potential. Will is the first to admit that he was a reluctant salesperson for many years. He thought most salespeople had to be pushy, and he just wasn't comfortable in that role. He later discovered that you don't have to act like a typical salesperson to be a great salesperson so he created a company to teach others what he had learned. Will transitioned a twenty year career in sales and sales management into his current position as President of Dancing Elephants. In addition to facilitating and presenting, Will is the author of Impact!, the company's monthly e-newsletter on sales performance. He is also the co-creator of the Sales Magnetism program and the co-author of Six Secrets of Sales Magnets.
