When it comes to Employee Engagement, we have the answers
What is ‘Employee Engagement’?
In 2006 the Corporate Leadership Council embarked on an ambitious and previously unparalleled piece of research taking in 50,000 employees in 59 organisations, 10 different industries and 27 countries.
They found that an employee’s choice to stay with a company and remain fully focused and engaged in their work is influenced by a number of ‘engagement levers’.
1. The Qualities and behaviours of line managers
2. How people are welcomed to the company (hiring and induction)
3. The organisational culture
4. Their day-to-day experience of work
5. The qualities of the senior executive team
6.The learning and development opportunities
7.Pay
8. Benefits (perks and other rewards)
The most important category by far was the ‘qualities and behaviours of line managers’.
In fact, the employee engagement research showed that 36 of the 50 most important things that a business can do to better engage its employees relate the qualities of its line managers.
Armed with this detailed data, we developed a range of workshops that give managers all the tools and skills they need to significantly boost the engagement of their teams.
These were first delivered at O2 Telefonica and quickly became the most effective and successful management training modules that the organisation had ever rolled out. For more details, and to find out why the interventions were so powerful, click the link below.
