With the improvement in HR metrics comes increased competition, additional data and more information available to employees. The engagement of employees and the reduction of turnover is very important for companies today and in the future. An engaged workforce will assist companies in remaining competitive and productive. Key elements of employee engagement are found in three main drivers of success. These include:
Strong Employee/Management
Relations: An important driver of
employee engagement is the individual employee’s relationship to their
manger. Is their manager supportive, an effective coach, honest and
represents the high ethical values of the organization? A manager that
embodies these key elements will be a partner with the employee and secure
their engagement.
Effective
Communication: Understanding
how the company operates and the strategy for the future will allow the
employee to become more engaged in the success of the organization by
understanding where the company wants to be in the future. Effective
communication includes sharing the business plan and strategy, new products,
financial performance and the vision for the future.
Job Satisfaction: When employees at different levels in the
organization enjoy the job and view their role at the company as challenging
and contributing to the success of the company engaged employees are more
included to give 110%, look for new ideas and be more creative.
Clearly, employee engagement is
an important tool for the leaders of companies today to embrace and support.
