Employee engagement is that elusive term regarding how “hard” or “motivated” or “committed” someone is to the company, their individual job, a particular project or an activity the employee is required to make. How involved are they? How motivated are they? Are their bodies present but not their minds?
Gallup measures employee engagement by tracking interviews conducted with 7,112 adults working for an employer. Gallup categorises workers as engaged based on their responses to key workplace elements that it has found predict important organisational performance outcomes. Gallup’s extensive research shows that engagement is strongly connected to business outcomes essential to an organisation’s financial success, including productivity, profitability and customer satisfaction. Engaged employees are also the ones who are the most likely to drive innovation, growth and revenue that their companies need.
