Is your team fully engaged to give their best, day in and day out? In a recent study by TowersWatson, an international HR consulting firm, fewer than 21% of employees surveyed described themselves as “highly engaged,” down from 31% in 2009. 8% admitted to being fully disengaged. Having only one-fifth of your employees highly engaged is not the hallmark of a “Winning Business.”
Other studies show that employee engagement derives from three important factors:
- Alignment of the employee with the goals and vision of the company.
- Faith of the employee in the competence of management and their commitment to realize the goals and vision.
- Trust in their direct supervisor that he or she will support his or her people and help them to succeed.
