Employee Engagement

Employee engagement is essential to make your business great

Employee engagement is not just a buzz word.  It has been proven that engaged employees are necessary if businesses are going to be successful moving forward.  It is a description of the culture of the organisation.  Some leaders and organisations are just naturals at having engaged employees work well, these organisations usually employ professional HR expertise.   They are genuinely interested in what their Engaged Employeespeople think and value their employees input.  Unfortunately, engagement sometimes doesn’t come so naturally and leaders and businesses have to make a concerted effort to get employees and involved. A great example of great employee engagement, where engaged employees have a vested interest,  is when they own shares in their company.  Unfortunately, offering shares to your employees to keep them motivated and involved isn’t always available.  But why then is employee engagement so crucial? A must read is the to Government published in 2009.  The report finds that successful employee engagement impacts on performance results.  They also found that taking steps to improving employee engagement actually correlated with improved performance. The research also showed that levels of employee engagement correlated with

  • employee turnover
  • Number of accidents
  • Productivity
  • Profitability
  • Operating income
  • Bottom line results

Finally, the report found that one organisation had shown that those branches with significant increase in levels of employee engagement had a 16 percent higher profit margin than those branches that had shown a decrease in employee engagement. Whilst an Employee survey is essential, there are many more aspects to great engagement. In summary these are:
