Employee engagement is the focus, motivation and passion people bring to their jobs, shaped by their relationship with their manager and how they see the organization. This 60-minute employee engagement training explains why it matters and how to raise it.
Engaged employees take pride in their work, suggest improvements, put in discretionary effort, speak well of the organization and plan to stay. Yet only about 31% of U.S. employees are engaged, and over 100 research studies link engagement to better organizational performance.
You'll see why compliance isn't engagement, the three levels of engagement, how leading companies use it, and practical ways managers can meet the needs most tied to business results, plus where pay fits.
About half of employees are unengaged and around 20% are actively disengaged, so most organizations have a large opportunity. Employees' engagement needs are simple: clear expectations, the right tools, recognition and a supervisor who cares. The biggest driver is the relationship with their immediate supervisor, who has daily chances to listen, coach and build engagement.
It suits HR professionals new to the field or seeking a refresher, and leaders and managers.
