Employee Engagement

Quickly understand how to boost individual, team and company-wide engagement in your business.

The concept of having a single employer for life is long behind us. Today’s employees have higher expectations of their employers than ever before. The war for talent, increasing job mobility and the need to create a competitive advantage using human capital make solving the engagement puzzle a critical objective for all organisations.

Many organisations focus their engagement strategy on remuneration, benefits and the working environment. However, individuals, teams and entire workforces display clear differences in terms of the drivers of their engagement, and reliance mainly on remuneration and benefits often fails to achieve improvement in employee satisfaction. Just as critical is identifying employees who are actively disengaged meaning they are actually working against the companies goals. These toxic employees can have a large negative effect on overall performance. Research by Gallup on Employee Engagement in Australia indicates:
