I intuit, that engagement is really just mindfulness in the workplace. To explain mindfullness, I would like you to use this visualization in your mind that you may be able to relate to:
Imagine you are with your best friend having lunch, there is no stress, there is no need to keep up any airs or any self image, yet you are totally attentive to what is being said, listening deeplyrespectfully, absorbing what is being said, and offering advice on an impromptu basis without thinking about it too much on all sorts of issues, even surprising yourself occasionally .  Here you are being mindful, in the presentrelaxedfocusedalert, switching off excessive thoughts, just being presentenjoying the company of your friend, not to say accessing the innate intelligence of your core spiritual being.
