Employee engagement is one of the key indicators in gauging work satisfaction. In today’s society, employees want to be involved in their work, enthusiastic about their company, and have a sense of belonging among their team. In fact, 79% of respondents in a Global Human Capital survey mentioned that fostering a sense of belonging in the workforce was essential to their organization’s success in the next 12-18 months.

Employee engagement is all about improving the work environment and culture to encourage employees to be dedicated to their company’s goals and values. Having effective strategies in place helps create a better work culture, increase productivity, reduce staff turnover, and even impact company profits. More importantly than any of these, it makes employees happy and turns them into your best advocates.
Being engaged in your job, company, and colleagues plays a critical role in overall satisfaction. You’ll not only be more energized and efficient but go beyond what’s expected of you. This can influence those around you, including your colleagues and customers.
