RECAP

Simply stated, employee engagement is the alignment of individual aspirations and organizational goals to better drive both business results and personal ambitions. Without an engaged staff, managers have a tough time accomplishing much–let alone the best–work possible. If employees are engaged in their work, they have a greater desire to work harder, to be more productive and to be more responsible in completing work to the best of their ability. When organizations make employee engagement a priority, they can obtain increased organizational profitability, productivity, flexibility, and employee retention, and better be able to attract talent as well.

What are 3 ways to get greater employee engagement? Recognition, or more specifically, recognition for high performance. It’s a simple concept: “thank workers when they do a good job.” Most people in a recent study considered themselves to be overworked and under appreciated. That is not a formula for good employee engagement. Career development is next – people want to know that they have a future with the company. They don’t want to get themselves into a “dead end” job with minimal chance for development. Lastly, the immediate manager. How an employees immediate manager engages with them and treats them plays a big role in one’s engagement. The company mission statement and leadership may be great, but if the immediate managers are not cultivating that positive atmosphere on a individual basis you may end up with employees just going through the motions.
