The truth about staff engagement
Over the last 3 years there has been abundant research on what creates increased levels of Staff Engagement and its benefits.
It would seem that even before the hooks of the recession set in it is likely that
only up to 20% of your staff are fully engaged
a further 20% may be overtly disengaged
60% are managing their disengagement.
A couple of minutes and you can assess your own current level of engagement right now
Converting the disengagement of employees into engagement is a crucial priority for any business. The reasons are simple and the benefits clear. People are not just a static asset, they are the fuel your organisation needs to function. And research clearly shows that engaged staff
- perform consistently better individually and in teams and make a positive contribution to the success of the organisation
- cost the organisation far less in terms of grievances, disciplinaries, sickness absence or resignation from the organisation
- are more willing to go the extra mile – a vital ingredient in organisations where achieving more with less is paramount
- provide organisations with a competitive edge as ambassadors for the place where they work – and this is being seen as the new product/service differentiator.
