Pamela,
GREAT question! That you are asking this question means that you care and want your team to know that. My answer is simple .... let this sincerity come through in your messages to your team.
Before sitting down to send a message, really think about what you are trying to convey. For me, and I am not sure how, but somehow, when I am focused and feeling strongly about that desire to show my team that I truly care and have their best interest at heart, the message comes across in my words. I think we must message and type with feeling for it to be realized.
I also recommend communicating with your team often ... about anything. Every message sent does not need to be about advancing in SFI. The idea is to build relationships and that means taking the time to get to know your team and allowing them the opportunity to get to know you. I think if you can e-mail them 3 or 4 times a week it is great and if not, do it as often as you can.
If you truly feel it the message will come through in your communications. One more thing that I might suggest is keeping an eye on the activity of your team. If you notice a sudden pattern change reach out to them and check in ... just make sure everything is okay, offer an ear or helping hand if possible. It shows that you care ... because you do.
I hope you found this helpful. Let your passion shine through!
Be Strong and Keep the Faith! :-)
